Aaron Dessner

Aaron Dessner Instagram – I started working on music with @benhoward_ a few years ago when we got together at Long Pond just to experiment with no plan or goal in mind….we started just by collecting song fragments, strange guitar patches and beats ….recording anything and everything that caught our interest but not worrying yet about finding structure or threads between ideas. It was so much fun that we kept getting together over the next many months and gradually songs began to emerge. What started as a relaxed experiment became one of my favorite creative processes and records I’ve ever been part of. Ben’s new record “Collections From the Whiteout” is out today and I couldn’t be more proud of what we made. Thank you to @heyjonlow for brilliant recording and mixing as always; Mickey @ablazeoffeather for so many beautiful contributions; Nat, Richie and India for helping bring songs to life in Paris ; @thisisthekit for lending her beautiful voice; incredible drummers @james_krivchenia @jasontreuting @kyletkeegan and @yussefdayes ; @mooserob for his beautiful arrangements and @tingalayo and @arsononly for magic yet again. And most of all thank you Ben for taking this journey with me. | Posted on 26/Mar/2021 10:13:03
