Description
Appleton, Wisconsins Dusk may seem to have fallen from the sky. Surrounded by a music climate of destination festivals and instagram celebrity, theyve remained reclusive, yet focused on the proverbial carrot on the end of the stick thats hard for so many working musicians to define. For the past four years, theyve maintained a steady schedule of recording and hitting the dirt, as they say: spending weeks on the road playing dives and basements. Theyve released two 7 singles, a cassette, and now, thanks to Don Giovanni Records, theyre sharing their debut full length album, which is named Dusk.
The group was conceived in 2014 as a casual recording project between vocalist and bassist Amos Pitsch and drummer Colin Wilde. Amos had just completed recording Predatory Headlights, the critically acclaimed double album by his other group, Tenement, and with the new found down time, he and Colin arranged their own versions of vintage soul songs.
With vocalist/pianist Julia Blair, lead guitarist Tyler Ditter, and Ryley Crowe on pedal steel, rhythm guitar, and vocal duties, the band are informed by soul music, country, jazz, and beyond.
