Despite the challenges of remote recording The Afghan Whigs managed to embrace the experience. Dulli, co-producer Christopher Thorn and drummer Patrick Keeler recorded from California while bassist John Curley, guitarist Jon Skibic and strings specialist Rick Nelson contributed from Cincinnati, New Jersey and New Orleans respectively. How Do You Burn? was mostly recorded during the pandemic with band members remotely contributing their parts. Along with Lanegan, How Do You Burn? also features guest spots from past Whigs collaborators Susan Marshall, Van Hunt and Marcy Mays. Lanegan, who worked with Dulli in Twilight Singers and The Gutter Twins, sang backing vocals on two How Do You Burn? tracks before he passed, marking his first appearance on an Afghan Whigs release.

While the pandemic put meeting in person on hold, Doug continued work laying down guitar parts and vocal overdubs while swapping ideas from afar. The guitarist tapped them to help him cut the record, with the rhythm section laying down bass and drum tracks in Bosie before returning to Brazil with plans to mix in 2020. On the road, Almeida and Casaes learned a number of Doug’s new tunes which would land on When The Wind Forgets Your Name. After backing Martsch in Brazil, Almeida and Casaes joined Built To Spill for subsequent tours in the U.S. Martsch met his collaborators while touring in Brazil in 2018. “And I think I’m the first 50-year-old they’ve ever signed.” The new record sees the guitarist continuing his rhythm section revolving door, this time tapping Brazilian musicians Le Almeida and João Casaes of the psychedelic jazz-rock band, Oruã. “I’m psyched: I’ve wanted to be on Sub Pop since I was a teenager,” Martsch said in a press release. “I hope people who listen do so with an open heart.”īuilt To Spill – When The Wind Forgets Your Nameīuilt To Spill is back with a new album, When The Wind Forgets Your Name, the Bosie band led by Doug Martsch’s first on famed Seattle-based label Sub Pop.

When it was time to record, work moved to Sound Emporium Studios in Hartswick’s current hometown of Nashville. “That was the purpose of the trip, to see if we could write an album.” “We’d write and cook and write and cook and laugh and cry and write and cook,” noted Hartswick of the week-and-a-half writing retreat that also included songwriter Erin Boyd providing input. Hartswick and longtime collaborator Nick Cassarino decamped to a closed bed and breakfast in their native Vermont for writing sessions in the winter of 2021 that yielded most of the material on Something In The Water. Other contributors include vocalist Celisse and trombonists Natalie Cressman and Roy Agee.
