Late this summer, Jagjaguwar will release Bon Iver percussionist S. Carey’s debut solo album, All We Grow. In the fall, opening a nationwide with The Tallest Man on Earth, Sean Carey will reunite with Kristian Matsson, who is coming off a string of sold out spring US dates. The two met in 2008 when Kristian opened a US Bon Iver tour.  To re-create the instrumentation of All We Grow, S. Carey’s band will include three percussionists and an upright bass.

All We Grow is a convergence of Carey’s Waltz For Debby-era Bill Evans inflected jazz tendencies, and traditional rock band experience, taking leads from Mark Hollis’ Talk Talk. It also retests the waters of modern classical composition, investigating the moodiness generated by percussive repetition in a manner familiar to fans of Steve Reich. In his downtime on tour with Bon Iver, Sean would spend time pining for his soul-mate’s arms, and in that context, dreaming and composing. During infrequent tour breaks at home he would patiently record these pieces, adding layers each time. Two years later, the parts converged to make an album.
