Tar Pet
Deaf Drawing Blind Listening
LAST COPIES. CDR release. Tar Pet is the solo project of Taralie Peterson from the legendary psych veterans Spires That In The Sunset Rise. Both projects recapture creative music by bringing it into a timeless, acoustically sourced domain. You may hear a dream-state soliloquy sung that was once told to her by her five year old son, while a cello veers unexpectedly, interweaving with unknown sounds. You are liquified by unusual folk instruments from around the world, strange tunings, and existential lyrics. There is a constant disintegration of oppositions in her ritualistic music - meandering yet simultaneously focused, beautiful and melodic but unnerving and discordant. Great for opening the mind to the cracks between worlds. Tar Pet is completely riveting, mysterious, and a very rare occasion to listen again, as if for the first time.
