After A Five-Year Hiatus Encompassing The Birth Of A Son, A Third Coast To West Coast And Back To The Third Coast Move, And An Ongoing Global Pandemic – Chris Bathgate Returns With ‘The Significance Of Peaches’.
On This, His 6th Full-Length Album, The NPR & BBC-Lauded Artist Is Found Ruminating On Time Spent Living In The National Forests Of Michigan While Homeless, His Emergence Into Fatherhood, And Yes, The Significance A Certain Stone Fruit Has Played Throughout His Life.
Sonically, ‘The Significance Of Peaches’ Leans Heavily On The Structural Support Of Parlor Organ And Bathgate’s Signature Multi-Tracked Percussion – Surprisingly Sparse Use Of Guitar And Strings Sheathed In The Middle - His Haunted Vocals Perched Atop It All.
“...A Winningly Moody And Fequently Exquisite Sound – A Marvelous Showcase For An Unassuming Midwesterner Who Deserves More Attenetion Than He Gets.”, Said NPR Musics’s Stephen Thompson Of Bathgate’s Previous Work; “Beautiful, Very Emotional Songs.” Added World Cafe’s David Dye; This Newest Offering Is From Bathgate Is Certainly No Exception.
