Almond
Preservation
INDIE
The PRESERVATION label presents 'Almond', the debut album from Kansas multi-instrumentalist AARON MARTIN.
His experimental-collage style builds loops into beguiling song forms of folkish charm and emotional resonance - similar to the uncanny pop sensibility fostered by acts such as THE BOOKS, NEUTRAL MILK HOTEL and OLIVIA TREMOR CONTROL plus a sense of whimsy that recalls COCOROSIE.
Aaron's minimal, austere playing style of the cello remains a hallmark of his sound but on 'Almond', you'll hear guitar, lap steel, banjo, piano, ukelele, flute, toys and many more instruments and sound sources. Everything on 'Almond' is played by Aaron, except for one solitary sample. The 24-year old Aaron records where he resides, in an apartment on top of a retirement facility for Vietnam war veterans.
Featuring limited edition special package design with description of the album on the front.
