about

"Back porch style acoustic guitar, just 6 and 12 thundering strings.. If the blues is a river where themes are borrowed from and re contextualised - Remien Vigilia takes it in ‘to the point’ Primitive fashion. Inspired by the folklore and landscape of the South Downs near his home, much of it was written in a short bout giving a sense of urgency throughout.
Crystalline forms are explored with droning alternating bass, ragtime syncopation and delicate refrains - evoking the wildflowers and chalk cliffs. Linden’s approach to playing is through visualisation, using each tuning as a different pallet - colours and imagery come to mind throughout. His background in experimental music is at play here too; with plenty of playful lurching and tasteful dissonance thrown into his fingerpicking in the spirit of Fahey, Basho or Sun City Girls raga like free folk."

"What links Pomeroy to the American Primitive ideas is the disregard for orthodoxy. Plenty of off tunings, slack drone notes, very idiosyncratic time-keeping, etc. Worth saying that it’s by no means a showy-offy record — these are arrangements bulbous with care and attention" - Freq.org.uk

Thanks to Jamie Bowden for your careful work, to Michael Sill at Ramble, Perry Brooks Nichols for his encouragement; to Maria, Nico, Mum & Dad - to all my friends and family for your continued love and support.
