Breathe Owl Breathe Victoria Williams Aaron Ross
BREATHE OWL BREATHE Named one of the "2010 Top 5 Artists You Should Know About" by NPR and garnering a colorful spectrum of praise from the likes of Pitchfork, Daytrotter, Paste Magazine, E Music and beyond, BREATHE OWL BREATHE is not be missed!
In a Lincoln Log cabin in deep rural Michigan live and work Micah Middaugh, Trevor Hobbs, and Andréa Moreno-Beals. This is Breathe Owl Breathe. A printmaker, a geomorphologist, and a native of Colombia, respectively, the trio transformed their ancient home into a four-season sonic and visual workshop. Through the snow and the sun (and the bugs), Breathe Owl Breathe created Magic Central (the name they also gave their cabin). ...A timeless aural cartogram of feeling, soul, skill, and story. You could have found it in the attic. It could have dropped from space.
"...A wild rumpus of harmony and rhythm...the band's flare for pop-addled melodies flips the contemporary folk aesthetic, eschewing freakiness in favor of charm. It's a dynamic built on coupling clever arrangements with lyrical whimsy." - Ashley Melzer, Paste Magazine, June|July 2010
VICTORIA WILLIAMS is an American singer/songwriter and musician, originally from Shreveport, Louisiana, although she has resided in Southern California throughout her musical career. She is noted for her descriptive songwriting talent, which she has used to immerse the listener of her songs into a vivid feeling of small-town, rural Southern upbringing and life. Her best-known songs include "Crazy Mary", and "Century Plant". Finding inspiration in nature, ("Weeds", "Century Plant," "Why Look at the Moon"), everyday objects ("Shoes," "Frying Pan") and the unseen, as in "Holy Spirit".
AARON ROSS Nevada City's best kept secret, and arguably one of the most prominent and well-respected musicians in Nevada City, as well as a devoted family man, Aaron Ross is an innovative singer/songwriter known by many for his many versatile psychedelic/folk/experimental solo albums, with 10 self-released full length albums to date.
Perhaps best known for his collaboration with the math rock group Hella, as well being the front man of Fresh Young Blood and most recently Amaranth, a collaboration with drummer Spencer Seim (Hella, The Advantage) with a full-length album produced by Grammy Award winning Guy Massey (The Beatles), which is due out 2012.
Ross' acoustic sets and other-worldly vocals have an almost gospel nature, where lies an expansive valley of richly textured, lyrically poignant humanitarian truths that will reverberate deep in your chest.
