Portland guitar virtuoso Marisa Anderson is back with a new set of home recorded instrumentals. This time around we find Marisa exploring structures more based on the Appalachian folk tradition. The bluesy cadences of Marisa's other Mississippi release - Golden Hour - are still there but more in an emotional sense than a structural. It's rare to find a record that has just one instrument with no vocals that can achieve real emotional communication - but here 'tis. Marisa thoughtfully composed & recorded this LP over the course of the last two years. It was worth the wait. A contemporary record that can hold it's own against the various re-issued folk music on our label. Limited edition of 1,000. The New Country, Deep Gap, Down Off the Mountain, Old Names, Austin Eureka and Ely, Trinity, Mojave, Furnace Creek, Embudo, Mesquite Shade, Happy Camp, Galax, Sinks and Rises, Hesitation Theme and Variation Blues, Colfax, Red Sky
