Shane Parish - Solo At Cafe Oto LP xx1949 With such talent at play

With such talent at play though

But most memorable for me

Starved of meaningful purpose

released on April 12

Building an album as layered as No One Deserves Happiness is a complex process

Shane Parish - Solo At Cafe Oto LP xx1949 With such talent at playThis album was recorded on November 14, 2023. I was on tour with the Bill Orcutt Guitar Quartet and we played an evening of solo sets at a sold out Cafe OTO in London. It was the night before our concert at London Jazz Fest. This set explores British Folk ballads by Anne Briggs and Shirley Collins, American folk ballads by John Jacob Niles, and a song by Angelo Badalamenti and David Lynch, from the television program Twin Peaks, called Sycamore Trees.
