Brown Recluse - Evening Tapestry - Music CD

Brown Recluse formed in 2006 around the core of Timothy Meskers and Mark Saddlemire. Their debut release, the six-song Black Sunday EP, is a brilliant blast of pop invention, blending influences from the psych pop of the Zombies and Margo Guryan, the tropicalia of Os Mutantes and '60s producers like Joe Meek and Phil Spector. Over the next year, the duo expanded to a six-piece that played numerous East Coast shows with bands as varied as the Pains of Being Pure at Heart, Tyvek and Dirty Projectors, writing new material and winning new fans along the way. The Soft Skin EP was recorded in mid-2007 and released on Slumberland in September 2009. It's pastoral, psychedelic vibe brings mind the sunshine pop of Curt Boettcher's the Millennium/Sagittarius projects as well as familiar touchstones Brian Wilson, the Clientele and the Elephant 6 collective. Evening Tapestry is Brown Recluse's long-awaited debut album. From the summertime daydream of opener "Hobble to Your Tomb" to the '50s-tinged.
