DECKER
"bursts with emotion at every edge and makes for some interestingly original music." Magnet Magazine
"The band's intensity, its ability to tap into spooky Old Testament terror as well as pastoral Verde River amble, is what sets it apart from the ever-crowded indie folk populace." Phoenix New Times
"Patsy is an album that defines it's own space and time." Rust Magazine
"Arizona's decker. exceeds both lyrically and musically with their adventurous sound that is not quite definable and that's a good thing. Forget the desert and landscapes of their home state, decker. truly captures something imaginative that goes beyond geography." Glide Magazine
"The rootsy rambler 'ODB', off the group's upcoming record Patsy, has just enough swing to make you 'just dance / If you caught up in the holy ghost trance'." The Bluegrass Situation
"When people ask what kind of music I playI don't really know what to say. All I can really say is that the desert is integral to my sound."
So says Brandon Decker. Since 2009, the Sedona, AZ based songwriter has written, produced and released a trove of mesmerizing music; an expansive palette of folk, gospel, rock and psychedelia recorded under the nom de plume decker.
DECKER from Sedona, AZ
"Tailor-made for a Coen Brothers western," as one reviewer put it, "the music is dark, atmospheric and uncomfortably honest."
While hard to pigeonhole, there's a purposeful duality to decker.'s work; it's sparse while full. Also: intense, romantic, cryptic and raw.
All those characteristics and more are readily apparent on Patsy, decker.'s latest release and follow-up to 2013's much-hailed "desert gospel masterpiece" Slider. Recorded at WaveLab Recording Studio (Neko Case, Iron & Wine, DeVotchKa) in Tucson, Patsy veers from quiet shuffles to noisy guitar jams and horn-driven ballads, but never becomes quixotic or difficult.
It's hypnotic stuff. And a huge leap forward for the singer.
"You're always evolving," he explains. "If we're not evolving, something is wrong."
Recorded with a bevy of Tucson-based musicians, the cohesion on Patsy comes first and foremost lyrically. "I knew the album was going to be called Patsy the moment I realized I had to make another album," says Decker. "I had written a few new songs after swearing I would not make an album this year, and in the midst of writing we got this opportunity to work with Craig at WaveLab. From there it all came together quite quickly. All the songs come from a similar spot."
