   About The Harpeth Trace
February 6th, 2008: The Harpeth Trace: On Disappearing -- a collection of 10 songs. Out right now.
Buy from Insound
Buy from iTunes

Some Press:

Sprawling echo-laden songs that are delivered with whispery, breathy vocals and slowly turning guitar arpeggios. "Two Plainclothes Cops" is a cryptic, faintly psychedelic reverie with sparse, crumbling chords, while the piano-stoked "Georgia May" is sweetly ethereal. There's a Western grandeur to the austere jangle of "Kodachrome Wolves," and Josh Kasselman's fragile, feathery vocals swim in and out of the watery '60s pop of "Locked Out and Wandering."
-Falling James, The L.A. Weekly

Some of the world's most unique and gifted artists seem to always get lost in the currents ...listening to On Disappearing is like looking into mirrors at a carnival or gazing through a kaleidoscope. There's a lot more going on here than first meets the ears. The more we spin this album, the more absorbing it becomes... This will easily end up being one of our favorite releases for 2008. Highly recommended. (Rating: 5++++)
-BabySue/LMNOP

Following the eloquent and exceptional debut EP Man and the Cousin, The Harpeth Trace has released a gem of haunting folk and psychedelia. With On Disappearing they have created a masterpiece that flows and works its magic from track to track --- the way an album was meant to be listened to.
-Seldom Heard Radio

And you can have one of these old girls for five dollars. it has four songs:


Some Press:

Sounds like it coulda been recorded in 1968 or 2010 -- it's that timeless.
-The Tucson Weekly

Their dreamy pop is timeless—not to say it fits comfortably in any time, but rather their desert folk songs seem to wander detached from time in a sort of psychedelic limbo. Josh Kasselman’s guitar chimes and vintage Brit-pop vocals provide the more summery feel, while underneath it—digging its heels in like a kid on the first day of school—swirls Rob Poynter’s brushed, arrhythmic drums, Barry Poage’s sluggy bass and some warped percussive piano.
-The L.A. Alternative Press

Hauntingly beautiful -- an air of honky-tonk melancholy.
-The Albuquerque Tribune

..
..I belief in
artgeneering...

the artist is only a medium,connected to the spirits around him-

translating vibes into symbolic shapes to reinitialize the ancient way
of using language...

the way of light and color...

without the disguise of words,right through the passage of our eyes...

to reach hearts and souls without taking the intelectual loop way...

natural formulas in an unnatural world...pure and uncensored...

awakening the visiual awareness, the centre of our inner universe...

to let it shine in the way it has allways been before these annoying
times,

that keep us away from our natural mission...

to stay connected with our great mother earth and her deep spirit of
freedom and peace...

we have to regain our nearly lost nativeness,

to stop this wheel of opression and iniquity that haunts our world and
our hearts...it's time for the rainbow warriors :-)
