Daniel Ellsworth & The Great Lakes
No tracks found into library
Though they now call Nashville their home, the members of The Great Lakes hail from across our great nation (Joel, drummer, Wichita, KS; Marshall, bass guitar, Columbus, OH; Timon, regular guitar, Youngstown, OH; Daniel, everything else, Minneapolis, MN), bringing with them (besides their clothes and stuff) a unique mélange of stories and the diverse cultures of their respective hometowns. Their self-produced album released in May of 2011, Civilized Man, was recorded by Mark Nevers (Bonnie “Prince” Billy, Andrew Bird, Yo La Tengo) at Beech House in Nashville. It is itself something of a departure from the singer/songwriter category of the rest of Ellsworth’s catalog. As the first official release from the band, it represents a fresh start musically and a whole new set of influences; from The Talking Heads to Wilco, lots of new inspirations are being welcomed into the mix.
