Andy McAllister's heart grew three sizes after landing in Austin, TX. His ears
were washed with local heroes Daniel Johnston and Townes Van Zandt, and he soon
filled his nights romancing downtrodden country songs into an ill working
4-track. After celebrating his two-year anniversary of unemployment, McAllister
tucked his tail and returned to his native Seattle where he connected with
jack-of-all-trades Jordan Walton.
Engineering recordings for the likes of Damien Jurado and Denison Witmer as well
as playing sessions with Bosque Brown, Walton brought his own take on housegrown
country - adding pedal steel, banjo, bells and omnichord. The two hit it off and
quickly began recording underneath a motorcycle repair shop in the summer of
2005, later emerging with their first full-length Don't You Miss Yourself. They
handed the reels over to producer/engineer Phil Ek (The Shins/Band of
Horses/Built to Spill) to mix at Avast Studios, enlisted the help of April
Sather (wurlitzer, trumpet, melodica) and drummer Nathanael Butler, and will now
release the completed album on Tarnished Records on August 22nd.
