DESCRIPTION
SHORT, SHELLEY
Then Came the After

Label : African Tape!
Year : 2012
Format : CD
Style : Rock / Pop
Availability : In stock

Price : 12.80 € - BUY
Description :'Then Came the After' was recorded throughout 2010 and 2011 at Liophant Studios with Alexis Gideon and in Mike Coykendall’s Studio, both in Portland, Oregon. The songs reflect the emotions of the album title: the unknown, change, happiness and sadness of human relationships and the mystery of life.

'Then Came the After' was written and recorded with a fuller, brighter, and more live sound in mind than the previous album, 'A Cave, A Canoo'. Though both albums share a depth of spirit, Shelley's musician friends Rachel Blumberg, Nate Query, Mike Coykendall and Alexis Gideon helped bring a positive vibe to the new sound. The more complex sound of 'Then Came the After' experiments further with new genres and soundscapes. In songs such as 'Plane' inspired by the melodic and meditative sounds of Pharaoh Sanders and Melanie, you can hear how the harp and piano of Alexis Gideon (Video Musics, White Hinterlands), upright bass of Nate Query (The Decemberists, Black Prairie) and drums of Rachel Blumberg (M Ward, The Decemberists) complete the ethereal yet grounded visual effects of the repetitive guitar and vocals, floating the song into the clouds to be carried by these talented musicians.

Shelley was inspired for the sound of 'Then Came the After' by the work of Roger Miller, Loudon Wainwright 3rd, Roberta Flack, Melanie, Iris Murdoch, Joan Didion, Ron Davies, Jake Thackray, Kris Kristofferson, Nina Rota, Carson McCullers and Pharaoh Sanders. Built from many sources, 'Then Came the After' carries the listener along with its unpredictability and the people, places and themes it touches, all held closely together by Shelley's warm and personal songs and voice.
