A Broken Consort, A Box of Birch (Tompkins Square, 2007)
A Broken Consort, Crow Autumn (Tompkins Square, 2009)

All music & art by Richard Skelton

Whenever I listen to Richard Skelton's remarkable music and view his art (a piece seen here hanging in my living room), I am reminded of my dear departed friend Cory Card, who introduced me to his work. Cory ended up working with Richard for a show Cory curated at the View Art Center in Old Forge, NY.  

This is the type of music that defies easy elucidations or discursions, therefore I would just encourage you, on this fall day, to take advantage of Bandcamp Friday (the day in which artists receive 100% of the proceeds from sales of their work from the website) and purchase some of his beautiful, natural drone work to accompany the landscape, the water, the weather.
