Bill Callahan - "Baby’s Breath”

"She was not a weed, she was a flower," sings Bill Callahan in his simultaneously cold and affective, deeply toned talk-sing voice. The brilliant mind behind Smog returns with a new LP, Apocalypse, on April 19th via Drag City. On "Baby's Breath," the contrast between Callahan's simple finger-picked acoustic guitar and the sparse backdrop of a fleeting electric's abstract dissonances create a scene that is as beautiful as it is chilling.
