Change is the constant in the work of the singer, songwriter, and composer, Sawyer Gebauer. Moving to Sweden from the Midwest at 19, he formed and fronted the mercurial Brittsommar, a musical entity that took off in Europe with a rotating cast of talent.
Upon return to the States, Sawyer carved a new project, Catch Prichard, and recorded a collection of songs that exalt the narrative as much as the melody. The result? Eskota. A five-song EP carrying the name of the Texan ghost town in which the album was created.
Now, another chapter unfolds with Utter Disbelief, the first six tracks of a 16-song series that rivets and haunts. With Sawyer' weighty baritone voice, out of the box drum machines, gritty Mellotron, and gliding pad melodies, this album is an amalgam of sound that resonates to the likeness of Popol Vuh's Aguirre, Springsteen's Tunnel of Love, and Cohen's Ten New Songs.
Sawyer’s Utter Disbelief spins stories that call to each and all of us. Those shared and those kept underground. You'll hear it. Feel it. He snares mid-stream narratives we've all overheard in a crowded bar, the silent street and smoky church - the incomplete whispers we each use to create our finish lines. These songs are memories birthed from the common thread.
Catch Prichard is currently based in Oakland, California. His next compilation of songs will release in the fall of 2019.
July is a Bay Area Pop-Rock band led by Kate Sweeney of Magic Magic Roses. July draws its influences from bands such as Fleetwood Mac, The Byrds, Tom Petty, and the Heartbreakers and Mazzy Star. Claire Plumb, Hannah Weiss, and Lily Rachels add three-part harmonies; Jasmyn Wong, Jeff Mohler, and Andrew Berg Sweeney fill out the music with drums, bass and guitar.
About Lonesome Station
Two humans hailing from Appalachia were brought together through a harmonious affinity for storytelling, songs of heartbreak, and visceral musical experiences. Yearning for the transcendental power of music when played in intimate, non-traditional spaces; Lonesome Station was born. In line with a long tradition of house shows, supporting local and touring musicians with transparency is the utmost priority. A station is a destination, a broadcast, a grounding force; Lonesomeness, paradoxically, builds the hamlet.
