Carcarshlander on PIAPTK


Carcrashlander: All Y'all 7".

From People in a Position to Know records:


Carcrashlander is the solo project of Cory Gray, a Portland-based piano-player and trumpeter. He also currently plays with Norfolk and Western, Graves, and performs studio sessions with countless other Pacific Northwest bands. He was formally in Desert City Soundtrack, and has played on recordings by The Dodos, The Decemberists, Viva Voce, Laura Gibson, Tracker, Darren Hanlon, Southerly, and many others. Carcrashlander’s epic folk can be at times both gloomy and optimistic, down beat or uptempo, hushed or bombastic. They will be touring throughout the fall and winter, including a showcase at the CMJ festival in New York City. The 7" is in a limited edition of 400 copies on green marble vinyl, with hand-screened jackets.

I'm working on a review of this one thanks to PIAPTK, but I wanted to quickly mention it because there is also a release show for the single tonight in Portland! Go see it ...if you're in town.

There will also be a record release show:
Friday, Oct. 10th
The Artistery
4315 SE Division St
Portland, OR 97206
Featuring: Karl Blau, Carcrashlander, Graves, and Nate Ashley.
