Seafares Music

Will Oldham (PALACE, BONNIE PRINCE BILLY) returns with another installment in his instrumental, or "silent" catalog - music written as soundtrack material for the independent screen. Joined by brother PAUL and DAVID BIRD, Oldham delivers four instrumental tracks for the feature-length documentary Seafarers, a film shot in Rotterdam that follows the lives of four sailors - a Swede, a Polynesian, a Croat, and a Nigerian - each with their own story, as they wait to go back to sea. Each track is a theme for one of the sailors, and Oldham evokes their stories and surroundings with great aplomb.
