Recorded at WaveLab Recording Studio in Tucson, AZ (Neko Case, DeVotchKa, KT Tunstall, Iron & Wine, Calexico)"When people ask what kind of music I play...I don't really know what to say. All I can really say is that the desert is integral to my sound." -- -- So says Brandon Decker. Since 2009, the Sedona, AZ based songwriter has written, produced and released a trove of mesmerizing music; an expansive palette of folk, gospel, rock and psychedelia recorded under the nom de plume decker. -- -- "Tailor-made for a Coen Brothers western," as one reviewer put it, "the music is dark, atmospheric and uncomfortably honest." -- -- While hard to pigeonhole, there's a purposeful duality to decker.'s work; it's sparse while full. Also: intense, romantic, cryptic and raw. -- -- Recorded with a bevy of Tucson-based musicians, the cohesion on Patsy comes first and foremost lyrically. "I knew the album was going to be called Patsy the moment I realized I had to make another album," says Decker. "I had written a few new songs after swearing I would not make an album this year, and in the midst of writing we got this opportunity to work with Craig at WaveLab. From there it all came together quite quickly. All the songs come from a similar spot." -- -- On Patsy, that similar spot is Decker examining the plight of the everyman. "It's exploring our innate weaknesses; how our lives are reactive and how we grapple with the inevitability living has to offer."
