Paul Bareham Lovely album, which may infer that it is exclusively soft and gentle, but it's more abstract than that, and moving in so many interesting directions that, after a while, you stop second-guessing where the music is going to go and just hitch a ride.

Ezra Really beautiful ambient guitar pieces. I’m definitely not an expert when it comes to guitar playing, but this sounds very skillful. Favorite track: When Our Reflections Go Cold.

drawreadhear an absolutely refreshing entry. a calmingly radical break from sameness (that fills no small amount BC space). will have this on repeat and will watch for more from.this duo.

about

Blood Blood Song continues East of the Valley Blues’ streak of sublime, future-forward acoustic fantasias. For years, the Toronto-based duo, comprised of brothers Kevin and Patrick Cahill, has excelled at an earthy and pensive brand of instrumental music inspired by notions of folk music as a global, rather than regional, idiom.

While the duo’s elegant and unassuming virtuosity easily distinguishes East of the Valley Blues from its contemporaries of would-be Bashos and fledgling Faheys, it is the group’s telepathic improv that provides the certain x-factor that ultimately sets it apart from its peers. Throughout Blood Blood Song, Kevin Cahill’s percussive, prepared nylon string guitar---occasionally evoking the sound of a begena—remains in constant conversation with his brother Patrick’s nimble steel string abstractions. Though the stereo separation places the brothers on opposite corners of the stereo field—Kevin mostly on the right and Patrick mostly on the left—the two guitars often create the illusion of appearing to meet in the middle, where they blend into a single, dynamic sound.

Blood Blood Song is an album of uncommon intimacy and grace. Of music that doesn’t so much develop as unspool. Music that blooms.
