BARTEES STRANGE – Farm To Table – LP – Yellow Vinyl

LP – Limited Edition Yellow Vinyl. Includes bonus track exclusive to vinyl formats.

Bartees Strangereleases his 4AD debut album with single Co-Signs a braggadocious indie-trap banger name-checking collaborators includingBon Iver,Phoebe BridgersandLucy Dacus. Opening by way of club-ready bass and 808s and Heartbreaks autotune, the hip hop flavor rapidly ascends to a euphoric, epic indie rock crescendo showing off Bartees wide musical appeal.

Where his 2020 debut recordLive Foreverintroduced the experiences and places that shaped Bartees (Flagey Brussels, Mustang Oklahoma),Farm to Tablezeros in on the people specifically his family and those closest to him on his journey so far. With his career firmly on the ascent,Farm to Tableexamines Bartees constantly shapeshifting relationship with life post-Live Forever. It also speaks to a deeper lore that says, dont forget where you came from, and this album is why. Always remembering where he came from, across 10 songs Bartees is celebrating the past, moving towards the future, and fully appreciating the present.

Born in Ipswich, England to a military father and opera-singer mother Bartees had a peripatetic early childhood before eventually settling in Mustang, Oklahoma. Later, Bartees cut his teeth playing in hardcore bands in Washington D.C. and Brooklyn whilst working in the Barack Obama administration and (eventually) the environmental movement. Since charting a path as a solo artist, Bartees Strange has released two records in quick succession: an EP reimagining songs byThe National(Say Goodbye To Pretty Boy, 2020) and his debut album properLive Forever(2020). For fans of the National, TV on the Radio, Moses Sumney and Yves Jarvis.
