Thanks to the good folks over at Pitchfork for their incredibly kind and prescient words on Nathan Bowles’ new album Plainly Mistaken:

Mixing a deep knowledge of regional folk traditions with a delight in modern composition, the banjo player and his exploratory new trio are delightfully suspended between earth and outer space … his best album to date—his most mystical and earthbound, all at once. – Stephen Deusner, Pitchfork

Nathan also got together with Aquarium Drunkard recently to talk about the new record and how he became the banjo guy.

Plainly Mistaken ebbs and flows in a similar fashion to the way Bowles speaks. It pauses to contemplate; it speeds through ideas only to soon revisit them. It circles. The record’s easy going while being totally focused. Aquarium Drunkard

Plainly Mistaken is out now! Stream the album everywhere music is streamable, and please considering buying a copy directly from us or from your favorite local shop, digi-merchant, or mailorder.
