CHARLIE MCCARRON’S “2020” ALBUM
Charlie McCarron’s dreamy new album “2020” is out, and I’m honored to have helped out a tiny bit with it. The record reminds me a lot of Arthur Russell, and the “Morning Phase” corner of the Beck multiverse. Lovely stuff!
I played a whole bunch of percussion and found objects on the track “Creatures Large and Small”— overdubbing a ton of tracks where I plunked along on a variety of percussion instruments and found objects, leaving the heavy lifting to mixer Andy Thompson to weave a more tasteful tapestry from the bag of yarn I tossed his way.
Oh, and there’s an instrumental version of the album too!
I’ve had the pleasure of collaborating with Charlie in an artisinal capacity several times, and it’s a real treat to be a part of his art as well. Congrats, Charlie! Excellent work.
