Headdress is a new mysterious duo of native Texans who have spent the last two years wandering throughout the American West. Their first EP entitled Silence is the Golden Mountain was written and recorded in the woods along the south fork of the Yuba River in the Nation of Northern California where they lived in tents during the Summer of 02006. They only released 100 hand numbered and handsewn copies throughout the Bay Area. After buying a van called Cloud, they headed south and spent time in Big Sur as well as Joshua Tree before finding their way into the Great American Southwest. This was the birthplace and muse of their first full-length under the new moniker of Headdress and entitled Turquoise. The album was recorded 02007 in a hollow hill in the grasslands of the Sonoran Desert under the Moon of Shedding Ponies (May) while living in a RV called The Golden Horse aka Goldie. After the release of Turquoise they headed home to the hills of Texas to hide out for the Winter.

Headdress has been through the desert on a horse with no name, man, and they’ve had a vision. You can hear it on the nomadic local duo’s latest, Turquoise (Totem Songs), a woozy desert strum that sounds kind of like Tangerine Dream read more..
Six Organs of Admittance is a hefty name for a band, especially when that band is one man: Ben Chasney.
Started as a sort of basement psych-folk project in 1998, Six Organs has transformed into a legitimate indie mainstay. Chasney’s fan base grew exponentially when he joined the ranks of Drag City, the Chicago-based label that also hosts Bill Callahan, Edith Frost, Joanna Newsom, Bonnie “Prince” Billy and Royal Trux, and released 2005’s “School of the Flower” and the subsequent “The Sun Awakens.” Now touring in support of 2007’s “Shelter From the Ash,” Six Organs of Admittance — Ben Chasney — performs with My Education and Headdress.
