Spencer Cullum – Seaside
In anticipation of the vinyl release of Spencer Cullum’s Coin Collection, today the British-born, Nashville-living musician releases the previously unreleased “Seaside,” a breezy, carefree cancion featuring gorgeous backing vocals and effervescent flute-playing. The album Spencer Cullum’s Coin Collection is out 9/24 and is Spencer’s effort to create a trad British folk album, weaving in elements of krautrock and prog-rock, with excellent Nashville players.
Born in London but currently based out of Nashville, Spencer Cullum’s work pays homage to the ’60s and ‘70s psych-pop, folk and proto prog heroes of his homeland such as Kevin Ayers, Robert Wyatt, Sandy Denny, and Robert Fripp to name a few. He has been known for his work as a session pedal steel player for artists such as Kesha, Miranda Lambert, and City & Colour, but this upcoming LP is Spencer’s solo debut.
Spencer’s work is influenced by british psych and folk.
Spencer is well-known as a session pedal steel player (his teacher was B.J. Cole!), the Coin Collection LP showcases Spencer’s songwriting craftsmanship and oustanding ear. Influenced by British folk, psych, and proto-prog, the album boasts a bevy of special guests including James Wallace (Skyway Man), Caitlin Rose, Erin Rae, Herman Dune, and many more.
The album is being released September 24th via Full Time Hobby. Pre-order here.
