Grigoni, Michael -& Pan-american-
New World, Lonely Ride
Using instrumental voices and textures drawn from the traditional American forms of folk, country, bluegrass and blues, and informed with a modern sense of ambience and space, Michael Grigoni and PanAmerican present their first collaboration. The album's title, 'New World, Lonely Ride', gestures toward its meditative orientation. The duo offers a series of reflections on the zeitgeist of our present moment, the spirit of our age: the isolation and loneliness that continues to echo in the wake of the pandemic; the fractures that mar our political discourse; the uncertainty that has stamped itself on the future of democracy.
