Siskiyou - Siskiyou

The debut album by Siskiyou is hitting the streets this week (13 September in Europe, 7 September everywhere else). Siskiyou is the new group led by former Great Lake Swimmers member Colin Huebert in collaboration with Erik Arnesen (who still plays with the Swimmers). The group is based in Vancouver, Canada where Huebert has recently settled after a stint working on an organic farm following his departure from the Swimmers. This is their eponymous debut album.


Banjo, piano, accordion and electric guitar play the lead roles with Siskiyou. The result is an amazing collection of songs thrums with a scrupulous lo-fi backwoods energy and restraint. The music has been described as perfectly conjuring the lush, crisp yet often chilly landscape of the Pacific Northwest.  Siskiyou by Siskiyou is a great album you can listen here.
