They Moved in Shadow All Together

by Emily Jane White

supported by

Surrealistic H. Sapiens Hauntingly good songs, ethereal voice, and those instruments. All this together brings a beautiful, mysterious mix. Indie Folk at its best. These songs hit hard, and linger even after they're finished. She's a superb artist, and definitely worth your time. Favorite track: Frozen Garden.

scot moriarty that atmosphere of this album sucks me in. pianos, guitar, vocals all wrapped in reverb. i love it.

Mubla Na Thguob Has an almost spooky vibe that even metal fans can appreciate. Favorite track: Frozen Garden.

Lea Felicitas After I heard Nightmares on Repeat, I bought the entire album without even listening to the other songs. I wasn't disappointed. While not every song is as strong as this one, this album was one of my favourite discoveries of 2016 so far and I look forward to listening to it on repeat this autumn. Favorite track: Nightmares on Repeat.

ryan Music for the last generation ever to see a living forest.

Hassles It's difficult to put into words why I like Emily's music but I suspect it's the journeys she takes me upon. A little 'something' beneath the radar perhaps.

about

The title of Emily Jane White’s fifth album, "They Moved in Shadow All Together" (out in France & mainland Europe april 29th, 2016, England and North America, june 10th, 2016), is a play on the opening line from Cormac McCarthy’s novel "Outer Dark" which hauntingly depicts a group of uncanny travelers descending a hill in the Appalachian Mountains. Recorded at Tiny Telephone studio in San Francisco, CA, and New and Improved studio in Oakland, CA, between December 2013 and September 2015, the 11 songs focus conceptually upon the symptomatology of trauma, a pattern of experiences marked by a fragmentation of the self.
White’s polyvocal arrangements mirror her manifold focus, and are the defining stylistic element of the album. Multi-instrumentalist Shawn Alpay’s bass accompaniment firmly supports White’s steady guitar and piano playing by providing subtle rhythmic movement beneath her overlay. His cello sits closely below and curls around the vocals, lending definition to key dramatic moments, while Nick Ott’s visceral and tom-heavy drumming assertively mark the ebb and flow of each track. White: “I wanted to make an intimate album that had bombastic moments. The bass and drums helped define that. Cello is my instrument of choice when it comes to strings. It’s the instrument most capable of sadness and melancholy. The cello is the veil, the fog, and at times the guiding light – the drums the heart and blood.” White’s vision was aided by mixing engineer Mark Willsher, whose background in classical music and film score engineering complemented her spatial and stylistic sensibilities.
