Ghostly, tickling tones and drones

January 22nd, The Oak and the Ax will host a intimate night of ghostly looped harmonies, acoustic tickling and humming tones without end. I would suggest a blanket, someone to snuggle with, a warm beverage and relaxed eyelids.

Graham / Drab Pony split cassette

Tea First Records has released a split cassette featuring sound artist Graham and yours truly, Drab Pony.

Side A Graham runs lovely ambient keyboard drones in and out of some wobbly tape saturated distortion.

Side B Drab Pony lays out a bed of tones, drones, beats, knives of screaming guitars, and a blanket of chaos and melancholy.
