Middletown House Concert Series

Tim Eriksen is a highly regarded singer of American folksong and shapenote music, a songwriter whose work has been covered by Alison Krauss, Joan Baez, and Bonny "Prince" Billy and a multi-instrumentalist with a background in punk rock and South Indian classical music.
With Absence and her sister, a new project with longtime collaborator Peter Irvine, percussion and voice, the duo return to their roots in folk minimalism and Gothic Americana- new and ancient songs of their native New England informed by the wide palette of their other collaborations.
The two are probably best known for their musical contributions to films including the Oscar-winning Cold Mountain and cult horror phenomenon The Outwaters, and as founding members of the anomalous folk-noise outfit Cordelia’s Dad, "the only band to have performed with both Doc Watson and Nirvana." But while echoes of punk-folk and shapenote music abound on Absence and her sister, so does the dissonance and rhythmic complexity of their Bosnian band Žabe I Babe, the deep groove they picked up from collaborators like banjo master Dwight Diller and East African gospel singers the Naamaara sisters, and the love of experimentation and power of repetition celebrated in Terry Riley's In C, the first piece the two ever played together as teenagers. The album also abounds with echoes from Pumpkintown, the duo's New England magic lantern show with painter/projectionist Susan Brearey, named for the birthplace of both Absence Wing and her twin. The place may be imaginary, but the musicians know its sunlit meadows and dark secrets well.$25 general
