Nansemond [Download Included] (ONLINE ORDER ONLY)

A cinematic suite of contemplative, elastic set pieces that conjures the titular Virginian river tribe/extinct county, the second solo album by Nathan Bowles (Black Twig Pickers, Pelt, Steve Gunn, Hiss Golden Messenger) deploys banjo percussion, piano, and voice to explore the country between the poles of Appalachian old-time traditions and ecstatic, minimalist drone. Featuring Tom Carter. "Nathan Bowles is like my spirit animal."Kurt Vile.
