SUMMARY:Sylvan Esso - Ow ∞ Tour
DESCRIPTION:Sylvan Esso is a band from Durham\, North Carolina. Across th
 eir career\, Amelia Meath and Nick Sanborn have put out four acclaimed a
 lbums\, been nominated for two GRAMMYs\, and collaborated with a wide-ra
 nging\, eclectic community of artists including Arooj Aftab\, Maggie Rog
 ers\, Tyler Childers\, Reyna Tropical\, Califone\, and many more. Usheri
 ng in a new chapter of freedom and independence\, comfort and considerat
 ion\, expansive collaboration and complete control\, new single “Hot Slo
 b” follows Sylvan Esso’s choice to move their work to their own indie la
 bel Psychic Hotline this past fall – and previews much to come this summ
 er. Ow ∞ is a trust fall. It’s yes\, and – . It exists in spite of – it’
 s messy and hellish and free\, a scotch-tape collage of memories\, ephem
 era\, Y2K-era burned CDs and backseat makeouts. It’s an invitation to th
 e party\, one riddled with ecstatic joy and failures and second third fo
 urth adolescences\, cities under water or on fire\, our dystopian presen
 t and past and future\, arms wide open to meet it\, to embrace and absor
 b the Pain\, in all its forms\, vomited out into something strange and n
 ew. On their new album\, Sylvan Esso metabolizes a life of making music 
 with people into making art that you just love\, a tactile and envelopin
 g freefall. Across their life as a band Amelia Meath and Nick Sanborn ha
 ve made songs from a tightrope\, a central tension at the core of their 
 songwriting from which everything else spiraled\, a push-and-pull of the
  physical and existential\, a dance floor to a dark corner\, cerebral an
 d instinctual – and here\, finally\, unleashed into something that is fr
 ee. Written across four years in the woods in Chapel Hill\, the longest 
 the band has ever spent writing a record\, Ow ∞ arrives with an intense 
 immediacy. Most of the tracks here are Meath’s first vocal takes\, and t
 he clarity and humanness of her singular voice anchors the album in some
 thing real. It was born from a time of experimentation and collaboration
 \, resulting in a sinewy\, punchy\, explosive work where the songs want 
 to claw their way out. A technicolor totem of personal destruction\, the
  feeling of being pummeled to silly putty and built back into something 
 that feels almost human\, almost familiar but freakish and new – a carto
 onish\, slapstick grin printed across a ruin. Ow ∞ marks the first time 
 Sylvan Esso has gotten comfortable with the fact that they are doing thi
 s – where they’ve figured out all the avenues in which they can take con
 trol\, and put things out the way they want to\, with the people they ch
 oose\, in their own studio and through their own label. For an album tha
 t wrestles so much with the out-of-control nature of being alive\, it me
 ets the duo at a time where\, finally\, they actually have complete cont
 rol over what Sylvan Esso can be.\n\nTickets: https://bit.ly/sylvan-esso
