Synopsis

Product Description
"Mystical country, like an eerie yellowing photograph" - David Bowie "A small but grand statement, recorded in a week, but achieving country-soul greatness"
- UNCUT * * * * stars "MC Taylor writes folk music that is at once firmly steeped in tradition and immediately accessible."
- NPR Music "Fans of Will Oldham and Bill Callahan will find much to admire in the work of MC Taylor, a revivalist who also lectures in folklore."
- Guardian UK Hiss Golden Messenger is Durham, North Carolina-based songwriter M.C. Taylor, in partnership with multi-instrumentalist and recordist Scott Hirsch, who lives in Brooklyn, New York. The pair have been playing music together for nearly two decades. Poor Moon is the fourth proper Hiss Golden Messenger release, and serves as the best summation thus far of Taylor's lone journeys through the dark night of the soul. "God is good, and it's understood," he sings. "But he moves in mysterious ways." Featuring members of Brightblack Morning Light, D. Charles Speer & The Helix and Black Twig Pickers.
