Hiss Golden MessengersQuietly Blowing Itwas written and arranged by M.C. Taylor in his home studiohis 8 10 sanctuary packed floor to ceiling with books, records, and old guitarsas he watched the chaotic world spin outside his window. Between March and June 2020, Taylor wrote and recorded upwards of two dozen songsin most cases playing all of the instruments himselfbefore winnowing the collection down and bringing them to the Hiss band. In July, the group of musicians, with Taylor in the production seat, went into Overdub Lane in Durham, NC, for a week, where they recordedQuietly Blowing Itas an organic unit honed to a fine edge from their years together on the road.

ThroughoutQuietly Blowing It,Taylor brings his keen eye to our broken American momentas he first sang on Hiss Golden Messengers critically acclaimed, GRAMMY-nominatedTerms of Surrenderin ways that feel devastatingly intimate and human.
