ARCHER PREWITT- Wilderness
Over the years we have constantly praised the work of Thrill Jockey’s Archer Prewitt. Best know as a member of seminal Chicago lounge-lizard popsters The Coctails as well as everyone’s favourite indie jazz-rock outfit Sea and Cake, Prewitt is probably already well represented in your record collection. That said, do yourself a favour this year and discover his gorgeously gratifying solo materials. Marked with a distinctive tenor that blends rural folk balladry with grandiose 60’s west coast soft-pop orchestration, Prewitt’s introspective sonic vision is infused with tinges of brooding melancholia and a baroque timbre that effortlessly balances hope with despair, love with lost and the ephemeral beauty of a simple melody before it fades. Likened to the work of fellow dark horse George Harrison, Archer Prewitt’s Wilderness is destined to be an outsider classic for souls oblivious to the daily drudgeries that distract us from the personal and spiritual. Enjoy, while making love.
