Weyes Blood and Lonesome Leash

Multi-instrumentalist Natalie Mering cut her teeth in the world of noise and experimental rock, playing bass in Portland-based freak rock collective Jackie-O Motherfucker for a time before venturing out solo around 2006. Originally billing herself as Weyes Bluhd, Mering’s earliest releases arrived in the form of limited-edition cassettes, a great testing ground for her darkly folky songs that twisted around noisy, electronic undercurrents.

Lonesome Leash is the solo project of Walt McClements, an accordionist and multi-instrumentalist known for his previous work in Why Are We Building Such A Big Ship?, Dark Dark Dark and Hurray for the Riff Raff. McClements crafts stark yet complex songs, nervous and triumphant hymns to the restless.
