Tickley Feather
Tickley Feather is the dreamy lo-fi collage-pop project of Philadelphia's Annie Sachs, a single mom who began recording music because she found the process soothing. Sometimes compared to Ariel Pink, Sachs spent four years crafting her songs in her living room and playing shows at friends' houses and a gig with Panda Bear before she went on tour with Animal Collective. That group's label, Paw Tracks, released Tickley Feather's self-titled debut album in spring 2008. ~ Heather Phares, All Music Guide[more]

Tickley Feather's Annie Sachs has said that she records music to soothe herself, and that lulling quality stands out on her first album. Tickley Feather displays a unique mix of innocence and sophistication, ranging from snippets of children talking about magic to carefully layered pieces like "Night Train," which surround the listener with an almost dubby depth, but each song's hypnotic pull is what holds this delicate lo-fi collage together. Sachs swaths naively stiff drum machines, the [ read more ]
