Tyler Ramsey & Carl Broemel - Celestun Tour
SPACE
1245 Chicago Avenue, Evanston, IL 60202
Having been friends and occasional touring partners for well over a decade, Asheville, NC-based singer-songwriter-guitarist Tyler Ramsey and My Morning Jacket guitarist Carl Broemel have at long last made their full-length recorded debut with Celestun. A marvel of interwoven musicianship and testament to the duos singular camaraderie, the album encapsulates the two veteran guitarist-songwriters mutual admiration and effortless compatibility as they swap and share nine new songs of dazzling dexterity and grace recorded almost entirely recorded on acoustic guitars.
Why We Like It
- Though their initial objective had been all instrumental, the natural flow of the sessions led the duo to begin incorporating vocal tracks.
- Stark yet intricately arranged songs such as the cinematic title track, Flying Things (featuring additional vocals from GRAMMY Award-nominated singing siblings The Secret Sisters), and an incandescent version of Neil Youngs Sail Away are rich with dazzling dexterity and grace.
- Music at its most elemental, Celestun sees Carl Broemel and Tyler Ramsey stripping away artifice to unlock and explore deeply personal themes of wanderlust and familial love, of fellowship and communal adventure.
Who Should Attend
Fans of intimate, acoustic-driven folk and Americana music will appreciate the virtuosic guitar work and heartfelt songwriting on display from this acclaimed duo.
