Bend Source Speaks With Left Vessel About Recording In Nature

Bend Source recently spoke with Nick Byron Campbell, the man behind Left Vessel. His new album, One (And Driftless), was created partially in a studio and recorded partially in the wilderness of Minnesota.  “Regarding the natural sounds [that appear on the album],” Campbell tells Bend Source, “I’ve been tinkering a lot with recording in unique environments lately, and leaving the natural sounds in was a fun outgrowth of that. Some of the tracks were recorded out in the woods, not in a studio, and I found that I loved the noise floor you get—a bit of wind rustling leaves, some birds singing, a bug zipping past.” Read the full interview here, and get Left Vessel spinning this week.
