King Creosote

'Diamond Mine' by King Creosote & Jon Hopkins. From 2011 on compact disc.

I heard two or three songs a few years ago and was intrigued. Then somehow failed to follow up. Until now that is. Beautiful melodies that melt into the next. Jon Hopkins adds splashes of sounds and atmospherics.

Upon first reading the name, 'King Creosote,' I assumed it was primarily a Cajun or Zydeco recording. But King Creosote, aka Kenny Anderson, is an indie-folk based effort.
