about

After countless years of scenery flashing by the passenger window of life, the world finally slowed down for a moment. Everyone breathed deeply and counted their desires, their regrets. Hope dived and soared. Rivers browned for decades by human hindsight turned clear, animals began cautiously exploring their terraformed ancestral homes for the first time since industrialization, and every human being worldwide cut off from their social networks and interpersonal lifelines--their friends, their families, their loves--had to learn how to garden in their own yard, for once.

Six years ago, Sawtooth released the beloved POST-AMERICANA (GR-002); since then, in between touring and rippin local shows, they've crafted and perfected the ten songs that make up IN FINE FEATHER (GR-015).

--

"In Washington state you can hear tape hiss from the trees. Everyone has a basement and keeps jars of pickled vegetables. Sawtooth, soaked in Olympia rain, are the Saturday Night Live band for Pacific Northwest punk houses.

IN FINE FEATHER features pedal steel, mellotrons, horns, synthesizer storms and percussive acoustics. Maybe if Music From Big Pink was actually music from across the damp street it would sound something like this. The warmth of early 70’s records are present, from Harvest to Fragile, as well as the traces of pioneer west coast power hippies Little Wings and Lee Baggett. “Mount Melancholy” could be a foothill in Oregon described by Walter Becker. “Ride Through The Redeye” is a hellscape once crossed by the likes of Townes Van Zandt, now joined by the bands dead cowboy chorus.

American music moves around, never staying still. IN FINE FEATHER will let you ride along, but the road goes every which way but loose. Everything but predicable."

-Austin Leonard Jones, March 2021
