Our dear friend and one time cellist of Balmorhea, Heather Broderick (pictured) is now working on a new record. In the meantime, she’s playing with Sharon Van Etten. The image above is a screenshot from their recent performance on Jimmy Fallon. So proud!
Watch that here.
BOTANY is slated to open for the illustrious PANDA BEAR 9/27 at Granada Theater in Dallas (Presented by GvsB). This one is not to be missed.
We are beyond excited to announce our FALL 2011 EU TOUR.
This tour is in support of our recent release “Live at Sint-Elisabethkerk”.
We’ll be playing selections from the recent albums and some new material as well. Newly designed posters and t-shirts will also be available at all shows.
Hope to see you all soon!Love,
Balmorhea-

“Untitled (live)” - Balmorhea
I have no words worthy of introducing this. Recorded in the Saint Elizabeth Church in Ghent, Belgium, the full sound created by the reverb and echoes enabled by the massive stone interior is simply jaw-dropping. I am robbed of speech after listening to this beautiful composition. It is just incredible. I will be earnestly awaiting Western Vinyl’s September release of the rest of the set, entitled Live at Sint-Elisabethkerk. [link]
