Eldritch Priest/Ryan Driver/Rob Clutton - Blue in Green
Eldritch Priest/Ryan Driver/Rob Clutton - Nature Boy
Unsurprisingly, given the musical/scholarly circles he circulated in when he lived in Toronto, the now-Vancouver-based guitarist Eldritch Priest attracted a crowd to the Southern Cross that could have been assembled into some rather interesteing bands (or academic panels). In town to celebrate the release of his Omphaloskepsis album (out on Halocline Trance), Priest brought the amorphous "navel gazing" tone that's heard on the album but also provided some structure by giving double bassist Rob Clutton and synthesist Ryan Driver some charts — a middle ground perhaps, between a standards set and some boring formless nonsense.
