2006, Secret Eye
Glasgow's Directing Hand is the brainchild of Alex Neilson. Skilled in the black art of ecstatic improvisation, Neilson and his crew of sound-searching souls journey into verdant fields of free-psych drone, delicate bubbling noise and traditional UK folk. Neilson is a touring member of Bonnie "Prince" Billy alongside Will Oldham and Mr. Ben "Six Organs" Chasny, he played drums for Jandek’s first-ever live performance, and he has recorded/collaborated with Richard Youngs, Alasdair Roberts, Vibracathedral Orchestra and more, not to mention his own superb band, Scatter. This CD features current and former members of Scatter, Charalambides, Belle & Sebastian, The One Ensemble of Daniel Padden and Scottish psych-folk darlings Lucky Luke. Following a 3" UK-only CDR, this is the first proper Directing Hand CD.
