Hey everyone,
Hope you’re all good!
As ever, here is some stuff from the last few weeks we think you might be into… Some words on how Jason inspired what is looking like one of the stand out records of the year, some unseen, or at least rarely seen images from MECo’s final tour, an ace old poster and our recent debut piece of S&D merch…
Hope you enjoy digging into some of this!
Back soon with more including an unheard Goshen Electric Co. track coming soon…
S&D

“indie rock that had been suffused with the spirit and the inflections of the blues.”
First up we have a really interesting profile of Waxahatchee and Jess Williamson on their new album with some heavy references to Jason. Their new record is beautiful and this piece starts with an interesting comment from Katie Crutchfield / Waxahatchee on how discovering Jason’s music via Kevin Morby opened up songwriting again.

Turkey - 2009
We recently discovered some images we had never seen, taken on film in Turkey by photographer Aylin Gungor of what would turn out to be the last MECo show.
With thanks to Aylin for sending us this and so many other images we’ll share with you soon.
