Micah P. Hinson comes back with an intense, almost entirely instrumental

After his fifth studio album 'Micah P. Hinson and the Nothing' (Talitres, 2014), Micah P. Hinson comes back with an intense, almost entirely instrumental 'psych-western' recording. 'Broken Arrows' has been released on June 30 via Bronson Recordings, a small label specialized in limited edition vinyl recordings (Steve Wynn, Dirty Beaches, Pontiak, Ronin, The Vacant Lots) Hinson and the label owners Bronson Produzioni have a long-time friendship. He has played several times in Ravenna where the group run three different live venues (Bronson club, Hana-Bi Beach and Fargo Café) and promote some of the most important festivals in Italy, such as Beaches Brew and Transmissions' festival. The Texas-based Americana folksinger decided to pay tribute to his Italian passionate friends with this exclusive 12' written, arranged and recorded together with his close friend and collaborator T. Nicholas Phelps in Abilene, Austin and Baltimore. The album is composed of nine tracks (the only 'I Sleep Tonight' has vocals) where Micah's harsh baritone voice makes way for unusual fuzzy and thunderous suites ('Why Yes, I Was Born Yesterday', 'Whilst Rabbit Run', 'Chinatown'), appealing western glimpses ('Looking Outside', 'The Oregon Vortex', 'The Downside') and narrative moments evoking comparisons to The Black Heart Procession, as well to Neutral Milk Hotel and other Elephant 6 early recordings.
