Homemade because I record at home. Surrealist not to align myself with the artistic movement, but rather to acknowledge that my music expresses "the idea that ordinary and depictive expressions are vital and important, but that the sense of their arrangement must be open to the full range of imagination..." Folk blues because its evolutionary thread goes back to pre-rock, and I'm a folk who makes music somewhat askew from commercial enterprise, and I bend notes and play in open tunings and sometimes I'm sad. could be clustered with sparklehorse, iron and wine, califone, barnstorm, acoustic grateful dead, new weird america, neil young, stephen stills, stuff like that.
I am recording a new album called 'Soil Science.' I am collaborating with DJ Ron from Oakland (beats and shimmering mirage arpeggiated bells) and Josh of Instant Ranger music and The Moon Upstairs (drums pianos and beautiful sounds). The 12 songs of Soil Science deal with wind and weather, colors and skulls, yardwork, kids and dogs, vegetables and fruits, rust, dust, and memory.
