JANAKA STUCKY - Ascend Ascend: Live In Seattle with Lori Goldston JANAKA STUCKY

2LP - Limited Edition Translucent Yellow with Opaque Yellow Splatter Vinyl housed in a Gatefold Sleeve.

Praised by Jimmy Page as “riveting,” Janaka Stucky’s book length poem, Ascend Ascend, published by Jack White’s Third Man Books in 2019, gets a mesmerizing treatment on this album by the same name, accompanied by experimental cellist Lori Goldston.
Goldston, known for her work with a number of acts - including Nirvana, Cat Power, and Earth - provides otherworldly layers of distortion and natural reverb over Stucky’s dirge-like vocal performance.

Recorded at the All Pilgrims Church in Seattle while Stucky was on a 7-city tour produced by Atlas Obscura in 2019, the performance is served well by the room’s ambiance and was recorded, mixed, and mastered by Mell Dettmer - who has engineered albums for acts such as Earth, Sunn O))), Master Musicians of Bukkake, and Wolves in the Throne Room.
