Joe O'Connell stationed at a creaky spinet piano, singing about the Alaskan sky. In style, the 8 songs follow a path between foggy incantations and mountain anthems. Made with a small cohort of acoustic instrumentalists, the record is rough hewn, but easy on the ears. To put this down on tape, O'Connell assembled some of his favorite musicians: Libby Rodenbough (Mipso) bows and plucks a detuned fiddle, Matt Douglas (Mountain Goats) breathes life into various woodwinds, and Matt O'Connell (Lean Year) sets the pace on a two-piece drum set. Their loose, imaginative playing pushes Vague Tidings beyond the singer-songwriter genre into something richer in texture, recalling Jason Molina, Bonnie Prince Billy, Bill Callahan, Damien Jurado.
