Release Notes:
Greg Ashley, the mastermind behind The Gris Gris and
The Mirrors, is going solo for the first time since
the 2003 masterpiece Medicine Fuck Dream. The result
is his most ambitious, textured, beautiful and dark
record to date: Painted Garden.
While being more warm and intimate than last year's
Gris Gris wonder For The Season, it still reflects
the same vision behind the band's greatness.
Partially written in a burnt out ghetto in Oakland,
partially written in his remote cabin in Kosse, TX,
Painted Garden was completely produced and written
by Ashley (except for half of one song, which was
co-written by an Oakland chanteuse) and 80%
completely played by him as well. This record is an
example of a true vision realized, and puts Ashley
right up there with the great musical minds of the
day.
