Synopsis

Product Description

Despite being an accomplished guitarist and songwriter, Sera preferred to stay behind the drum kit (drumming for the likes of Carissa's Wierd, LA musician Patrick Park, and on the Band Of Horses' debut, "Everything All The Time") until one tour across the US with Park in 2006. She found herself inspired by the landscape and she wrote an album in her thoughts as they drove along the blue highways and back roads of the expansive west and the plains. "...a breathtaking collection of sad and dusky songs that reveal an artist of remarkable depth as well as a truly stunning voice" - The Stranger.

"In my experience , an artists 2nd release has a tough time holding up to their 1st. The material on 1st albums has usually been around longer and worked over with a fine tooth comb live before recording. 2nd releases , especially right after being signed by a label, tend to be rushed, and overproduced. Sera has soundly rebuked the sophomore jynx. I LOVED her debut. It has'nt been far from my CD player since I first listened to it. I LOVE "only as the day is long" EVEN MORE. Her voice seems stronger, as if she's gaining more confidence in her own ability, but it still retains the achingly beautiful vulnerability of her first. The songs are still well crafted, with melodies that take unexpected directions. Her playing even sounds like she's more comfortable. Sub- Pop found her a co-producer (Zack Reinig) that did'nt try to change her sound, but manages to bring out the best of her abilities and the bands. Jason Kardong on steel guitar brings that "high lonesome sound" I like in my alt/country. Superb work by Jeff Fielder on electric/banjo/dobro too. Both played on her first. While Sera's a fine drummer in her own right , perhaps bringing Jason Merculief in on drums freed her up a bit. Outstanding fiddle work on 5 tunes by Erica Johanson also. This is a MUST HAVE for anyone who's into alt/country. There is a depth to each song that reveals added dimensions every time I listen. Sera Cahoone should be on everyones BUY NOW list. Music , of any genre, just does'nt get any better than this."
