Villa Claustrophobia

Introducing Tanakh, an incredible new project headed by Richmond, Virginia's Jesse Poe. Tanakh is a layering of sound and structure that combines songwriting sensibilty and improvisational abstractions that are as thick and rich as they are minimalist. These two seemingly opposed forms fluidly combine to forge dark sweet lulling gypsy melodies dug from middle-eastern sands that have been knuckled across Appalachian washboards that shadow the city in which they live. With guest appearances by Mick Turner (Dirty Three), Jessica Billey, David Lowery, Ned Oldham and Nirmal Bajekal.
