S. Carey - In The Dirt

S. Carey - In The Dirt

'In The Dirt' is taken from S. Carey's solo debut full length "All We Grow," out on August 24th via Jagjaguwar.  Sean Carey has been known as one of the brilliant percussionists for Bon Iver.  Engineered by Jaime Hansen and Brian Joseph, intermittently at home and at April Base (Justin Vernon’s studio outside of Eau Claire).

All We Grow is a convergence of Carey’s Waltz For Debby-era Bill Evans inflected jazz tendencies, and traditional rock band experience, taking leads from Mark Hollis’ Talk Talk.

Distractions from Chicago

Distractions require an inordinate amount of attention considering their namesake, combining Arthur Russell detail and Bill Callahan sentiment on a Scott Walker-sized stage of weird.


Distractions - All Night (Cassette Version)

'All Night' is taken from the latest signing to the Infinite Best Recordings (home of Twin Sister), Chicago's “R&B/Lounge/Surf/Noir Pop” group, Distractions' self titled debut full length, just released on cassette by Plus Tapes label.  Infinite Best will be handling the vinyl reissue later this year.  It will be re-mixed and mastered by Udbhav Gupta of Twin Sister.
