Old Fire

Old Fire is the project of Abilene composer and producer John Mark Lapham.  "Voids" is the new album from the project that drops on Friday which the artist describes as "a sprawling mural illustrating the isolation and decay that defined growing up in West Texas, and the losses and frictions he has endured amid such a bleak backdrop."  Having grown up in West Texas myself, i can attest.  The record mixes elements of folk, country, jazz, ambience, and more and features some guest vocals from Julia Holter and Emily Cross among others.  Check out the practically devastating "Don't You Go" below featuring a vocal assist from Bill Callahan, and pre-order the album here from Western Vinyl.
