Robert Deeble at Type Foundry

Robert Deeble (heard on Ball of Wax volumes 3, 4, 10, 15, and the forthcoming 24) has not released an album since 2005’s This Bar Has No One Left EP, so the news that he’s recording a new full-length at the analog-loving Type Foundry studio in Portland is good news indeed. I’ve seen the band he’s recording with, and he’s really assembled a fine group of musicians to flesh out his spare, haunting songs. This little video is a nice snapshot of their work in the studio so far. It’s great to hear some Deeble songs that have been favorites of mine for years but haven’t been put on an album yet. Assuming this record gets released in 2011, it will most certainly demand consideration for top ten lists everywhere.
