Description
DÈlivrance is the fourth album by nomadic duo A Hawk And A Hacksaw: Jeremy Barnes (vocals, accordion, drums) and partner Heather Trost (violin).
Recorded in Budapest during mid-2008 around the core of the Hun Hang·r group, with a variety of specialists (Jeremy would often take the train to different places around the city and record musicians like K·lm·n Balogh, one of the world's foremost gypsy cimbalom players), it is wholly evident that months of being submerged in the local culture and making music the focus of daily life has seeped right through Barnes and Trosts songwriting and playing.
Were not striving to find the authenticity of one region, Jeremy asserts. I guess we have an outsiders view of this music, and we are trying to learn it, but also learn from it. We want to write music that reflects on us as Americans and outsiders as well.
