Oliver Wood has always been the Wood Brothers' secret weapon, the guitarist whose blues-soaked restraint makes every note count. Slow Accordion finds him stepping fully into the improvised moment alongside three Nashville collaborators who share that same instinct for space and tension, the kind of players who've learned from masters and then learned to forget everything.
Slow Accordion aka acclaimed guitarist Oliver Wood, of The Wood Brothers, Matt Glassmeyer, of New York and Nashville's improvised music scenes, on his own strange Wurlitzer and percussion (Billy Martin, Lambchop, Aqua Teen Hunger Force), far-out, hard-grooving bass player Ted Pecchio (Col. Bruce Hampton, Doyle Bramhall II, Tedeschi Trucks Band), and magically versatile drummer Mark Raudabaugh(Sierra Hull, Donna the Buffalo, Jim Lauderdale) have announced the release of their self-titled debut album, due July 17 via Royal Potato Family/RPF Records. The four boundlessly inspired, Nashville-based musicians (and longtime friends) had no preconceived ideas or concepts beyond coming together to conjure music out of thin air, purely in the present moment. The seven-track collection was completely improvised and recorded analog, right down to the tape running out halfway through the closing track.
