The Slow Music Movement Blog

​Mostly we put our daily recommendations here for the blog readers among you, although occasionally we go longform.
Reading about music is a bit like looking at pictures of food - not nearly half as much fun as getting involved, so we scribble a brief intro to hopefully whet your appetite but you're better off just hitting play. Not very "slow" I know but there's a lot of music to check these days & hopefully you'll find the recommendations a handy filter.
​Trust your ears, not opinions.

North Americans - Roped In (Third Man)

WHAT THE COVER LOOKS LIKE:

WHAT WE SAY:

At least it's been a great year for cosmic Americana, & the latest gem is the new LP from North Americans. With minor embellishments from some notable friends, Mcdermott strips it down to subtle drones, pedal steel & his own intimate guitar work for Third Man Records.

WHAT THE RELEASE NOTES SAY:

McDermott is releasing Roped In, a gorgeous, intimate, and often spare album that pulls back from the collaborative nature established on Going Steady for a collection of fragile drone pieces anchored by McDermott’s intricate but direct guitar playing and haunting pedal steel work from Portland, Oregon’s Barry Walker. Featuring contributions from William Tyler on guitar and Mary Lattimore on harp.
