about

Instrumental lo-fi experimental folk. Made at home.

"My band had just broke up and I didn't know what to do. Marc suggested I come over to his house and record whatever I wanted. So, in January 2009, I headed over to Marc's with no clear direction or solid ideas. I had been thinking about my environment, how my county can sometimes feel isolated from the rest of the country. I wanted to make music that felt like it had escaped from somewhere, a land of witches, cats and spooky houses. Two songs on here are solo guitar compositions, in the past they would have been elaborated with multiple instruments and vocals but I decided to leave them be. An ambiance was forming. Two more songs were guitar based, semi improvised soundscapes. A method was conceived. The last track was wholly improvised, Marc and I playing 12 string, Piano, Electric Guitar and Radio. A principle was born. This recording is lo-fi, full of mistakes and is scratchy as hell but it laid a blueprint for what I wanted to do. We Are The Wooden Houses exists." - Stephen Benson.
