about

Limited edition 2018 reissue.

In musical circles, Nathaniel Robin Mann is still perhaps best known for charting the outer reaches of avant-folk as one third of the Dead Rat Orchestra. He has, however, been writing and performing as a solo artist for several years, drawing influences from the European and American folk traditions and tipping his hat along the way to everyone from Jacques Brel to Saul Williams, Mike Waterson to Nina Simone.

In 2012, Mann released his first solo collection on antigen records – an art-book and CD of musical sketches, outtakes, live songs and soundtrack material selected by the label from his personal archive.

Featuring a curious collection of instruments and objects for accompaniment and percussion (phonofiddle, harmonium, ukulele and ankle-bells), the collection includes stark folk ballads, North American spirituals and Spanish work songs arranged for voice, meat cleaver and wooden log.
