Alan Sparhawk With Trampled By Turtles

Moving away from his usual slowcore style, Alan Sparhawk joins forces with the bluegrass group Trampled By Turtles. This work creates a distinct creative friction, showing how his melodies adapt to fast-paced, complex string instrumentation.

Produced while Sparhawk navigated a period of personal change, the record manages to balance stripped-back song structures with the driving force of his collaborators. It plays like an after-hours session where two different musical approaches meet, forming a result that remains rooted in folk while leaning into experimental territory.
