Damien Jurado – Maraqopa

Vinyl LP pressing. 2012 album from the Seattle-based singer/songwriter. At Richard Swift’s National Freedom studios, the live-to-tape ethos allowed the songs on Maraqopa to expand and retract like a great beast’s breath. Every in-the-moment bell and whistle here is hung with a natural, casual care. And from this, each song offers up it’s own unique gift.
