Breathe Owl Breathe - Ghost Glacier EP

Breathe Owl Breathe - Ghost Glacier EP
Release date: 11/02/2008
Label:
Emusic


Comprised of Micah Middaugh (guitar, vocals), Andréa Moreano-Beals (cello, vocals) and Trevor Hobbs (percussion)the Michigan trio Breathe Owl Breathe explore the many wonders of Mother Nature. Singing tales of a frozen sabertooth Tiger trapped inside a giant glacier, an orphaned turtle brought up by frogs, and all kinds of other creatures that once graced the earth that still inhabit their minds eye. Told from a viewpoint as feral and simple as their subjects.

"...a forest landscape that is as calm as a stream, with ripples of unpredictability, that's as real as nature itself."

Middaugh's deep, grizzly bear, vocals are uncannily similar to Bill Callahan's (Smog), they even seem to share the same mannerisms. Combined with Moreano-Beals, as pretty as a songbird, high notes you are placed within a
forest landscape that is as calm as a stream, with ripples of unpredictability that's as real as nature itself.
