Ah, the moment i've been waiting for.
Single Twin debut album.
Single Twin is Marcus Teague's solo project from his no-more band Deloris. His debut album is called Marcus Teague. Self-involved? No. Reflective? Yes.
From the moment I heard 'Came Home Dead' on a music blog last year, I fell in love with Teague's voice, bare boned and the standout protagonist on the track. It is the type of song you put on late at night and can feel with each breath in and out, emanating from your fingers and toes.
Now it is surrounded by a family of similarly haunting compositions, each carefully crafted and yet allowed to develop naturally. Teague himself has admitted that recording finger-picked acoustic guitar on Garageband almost impossible to edit, so most of what you hear is as it was, go to whoah.
Highlights include the beautifully banjo led 'Dirty Sleeves In The Salty Water', meloncholy filled 'My Silken Tooth', the swaggering apocalyptic sounds of 'Wandering' and and of course 'Came Home Dead'.
Available through bandcamp, and i'm pretty sure if you send Mr. Teague an email he will send you one as well.
