Inspired by a gorgeous recording on a wax cylinder by the composer, Tanburi Cemil Bey (1873-1916). Performed on politiki lyra (classic kemençe), a small bowed fiddle from Istanbul. Recorded at The Banff Centre, November 2008.

A further march down the road in acl's evolution - and one of the many directions we've been dying to get to... it's, ummm, water-y. (And this song is especially dedicated to J Wentz.)

After an adventure in re-recording the entire song down a third, we came back to the original, tightened and tuned. Always the self flagellating perfectionist, it still needs a bit more love. Always the pragmatist, it is probably done for now.

just a chill tune, made to sound like warm analog love. Props to you if you can hear the elephant sounds throughout the track. ;)

This is the first cover song I've ever really recorded in my 15 years of playing and recording. The guitar and voice are each full continuous takes, I didn't want to do comping (copy and pasting), though the vocal harmony parts were done in…

This one is dedicated to my dear friend John. Thanks for changing my life for the better.... Also a big thanks to our own Greg Connor who helped me get the chords for my own uke accompaniment, and who kindly played the beautiful guitars…

From the "Northville" project. I played piano and mellotron on this.

From the "Northville" project. I played acoustic and electric guitars and an ARP Odyssey synthesizer on this track.
