Gathered

The 24th solo studio album from Giant Sand mainman Howe Gelb.Following two much-praised jazz-tinged Future Standards collections, a wider bet captures Gelb’s discordant phrasings and clever romantic lyricism. Joined by a host of collaborators from all over the world, including M. War, Gabriel Naim Amor, Fernando Vacas, Juan Panki, The Lost Brothers, Anna Karina, JB Meijers, Kira Skov and Gelb’s own daughter Talula.Focussing on Gelb’s celebrated song-writing style, filled with emotive tunes and heart-warming arrangements invariably offset by gorgeous discordant moments. A chance meeting of the indie / alt country Sinatra annotated by clever wordplay, teased by tongue twisters and an earthy ramble.
