about

The final piece of this double album, “Mountain Above Sky,” brings the preceedings back to how it all began and is perhaps the most heartfelt tribute to Oliveros. Sparse chords and sung duet vocals make for the focus, balancing the large and small sound dynamics perfectly. the performance matches the mood in a sad, beautiful, and intimate way that, by its conclusion, features accordion in a final, appropriate tribute to her. Pauline Oliveros may not be associated with the guitar as an instrument, but Jefferson Pitcher and Austin Hatch have clearly taken on her methodology to sound and art and translated it to their respective instruments. Like her own works, Shumoto & The Byrde encourages deep listening and give the space for that to happen throughout this heartfelt, powerful record. The Sea Will Carry Me is the result, in the form of a loving, fitting tribute to Oliveros and her work that I am sure she would be extremely proud of in every possible way. ~Brainwashed.
