DOWNLOAD: A Broken Consort - The Elder Lie

A Broken Consort is Richard Skelton, a multi-instrumentalist from the northwest UK region of Lancashire. Skelton's obligue, string-heavy excursions under the pseudonym (one of his many) are usually released on his own Sustain Release Private Press, which he started in tribute to his late wife Louise, releasing her artwork alongside his music. Box Of Birch is the second A Broken Consort album, though it's the first to get picked up by Tompkins Square Records (home of James Blackshaw and the excellent Imaginational Anthem compilations) for release in the U.S. "The Elder Lie" is the record's closer, a delicate eight minute passage of tempting, bow-stringed drones.

The Wire also has an exclusive video made by Skelton to accompany the record, you can view that right here.

Sounds like: John Cale, Psychic Ills, James Blackshaw
