Having been friends and occasional touring partners for well over a decade, Asheville, NC-based singer-songwriter-guitarist Tyler Ramsey and My Morning Jacket guitarist Carl Broemel have at long last made their full-length recorded debut with Celestun out January 15. A marvel of interwoven musicianship and testament to the duos singular camaraderie, the album encapsulates the two veteran guitarist-songwriters mutual admiration and effortless compatibility as they swap and share nine new songs of dazzling dexterity and grace recorded almost entirely recorded on acoustic guitars. Though their initial objective had been all instrumental, the natural flow of the sessions led the duo to begin incorporating vocal tracks. Stark yet intricately arranged songs such as the cinematic title track, Flying Things (featuring additional vocals from GRAMMY Award-nominated singing siblings The Secret Sisters), and an incandescent version of Neil Youngs Sail Away are rich with dazzling dexterity and grace, Ramseys nimble fingerstyle picking and Broemels classically trained virtuosity aligning to create a predominantly instrumental song cycle of rustic beauty and atmospheric power. Music at its most elemental, Celestun sees Carl Broemel and Tyler Ramsey stripping away artifice to unlock and explore deeply personal themes of wanderlust and familial love, of fellowship and communal adventure.We dont step on each others toes, says Carl Broemel, we kind of fit together like puzzle pieces. Maybe that sounds grandiose, but thats how it feels to me when were playing. We dont even have to talk about it.We just mesh together in a way that I cant even really explain, says Tyler Ramsey. I feel like theres some magical connection between our two things, it just makes me smile and satisfies some itch as far as things that I would like to hear on the music that I write. I think he feels the same way about what I do. When I put a part to one of his songs, we both have this feeling like that what exactly what was missing.Previously, Louisville, KYs Carl Broemel has released a series of solo recordings over the past two decades, including 2019s Brokenhearted Jubilee EP in collaboration with drummer Eric Hopper, and recent collaborations with The Futurebirds. Meanwhile, Tyler Ramsey, has earned praise for his former role as songwriter and lead guitarist in Band of Horses as well as an evolving solo body of work that includes 2024s acclaimed New Lost Ages, hailed by Americana UK as a gentle indie-folk gem.Sale Dates and Times:
