Album design for Evening Fires' “Where I've Been Is Places and What I've Seen Is Things,” out on Sunrise Ocean Bender Records. A collective of musical shape-shifters, a band, a tribe of mountain-dwelling barn alchemists … Evening Fires defy definition as much as limitations, no matter what form they choose to take. From their secret den in a northern Appalachian forest, Evening Fires brew up a rich blend of wide-spectrum rural psychedelia with ingredients ranging from earthy folk sounds to cosmic drones to full-on rock freak-outs. Throughout their catalog, these enigmatic men and women conjure a distillation that cherishes the heart of the process as highly as the sounds they produce. As natural as any old-growth, their branches unfurl beneath their own celestial canopy. Wonderfully universal, embracingly intimate … enjoy the warmth.
“…space rock for a planet built entirely out of forests.… Evening Fires are blazing from a musical center that wasn’t so much ignited by the past, as reflected in it from forty years distance, while wondering what might have happened if the whole thing was starting up again now.”—Goldmine Magazine
