lets just listen to what the roadburn festival announced today:

We go way back… 

It was 2007 when Neurosis made their Roadburn debut, and over the years we’ve welcomed them back with open arms and in many guises, multiple times. Steve Von Till has performed at Roadburn as part of Neurosis, as a curator, as a solo artist, and a guest musician – and now he will be performing for us within a digital realm as part of Roadburn Redux. 

Filmed and recorded live at the legendary Robert Lang Studios in Seattle, we’re delighted to be able to present to you a Steve Von Till performance titled A Remote Wilderness. If you’re anything like us you will have spent many a contemplative hour with his latest album No Wilderness Deep Enough, so it will be a joy to see it brought to life. Joined by a dynamic group of Seattle based musicians Von Till will perform the album in its entirety – with a few older songs woven throughout. 

Von Till will handle vocals, piano and guitar for the performance, and will be joined by Dave French (Brothers of the Sonic Cloth) on synthesizer, percussion, guitar and backing vocals, Lori Goldston (Nirvana, Earth) on cello, David Lutz on synthesizer, Eric Padget on French horn, and Olie Eshleman on pedal steel. The visual element will be captured by Bobby Cochran, whose work you may know from Amenra’s A Flood of Light documentary.

From our side, we view our connection to his work from a foundation of deep respect, admiration and – most of all – friendship. Although this year the miles may separate us, we’re looking forward to communing, with Steve’s wonderful, emotive music as the soundtrack. 

Steve Von Till will perform A Remote Wilderness as part of Roadburn Redux between April 16-18.
