I Made A Place

soggy_turnips a real silly fella, isn't he?

CheeAfterDark Will's music has been stated by him as a way of paying his bills, but it's clear that every song is his soul singing, so I'm happy to support his life.

H. W. This is certainly among Will Oldham's greater works. I relish his writing; it is both fine and plain, often binding the philosopher's Heaven and the man's Earth.

ptoothfish bpb writes so many songs i feel like i already knew them before i heard them <3

jae I think this is now my favorite BPB album. Fascinating, idiosyncratic songwriting as usual, and I particularly love the musical vibes of this one. Beautiful instrumentation and production.

about

GQ clothes-horse and man who saw a darkness Bonnie Prince Billy has his first album of new songs since 2011. This time, he brings the lightness, with help from a Louisville band including picker Nathan Salsburg, ex-Gary Burton Quartet drummer Mike Hyman and singer-songwriter Joan Shelley. Influenced by songwriters John Prine and Tom T. Hall and inspired by the state of Hawaii, I Made a Place finds Bonny using his considerable powers for good

If Bill Callahan sang "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" in his silky baritone, it would probably sound profound. That's why we, as listeners, are spoiled. Not only does Bill have one of the most beautiful voices in the music, he is also one of America's greatest poets. thepirc
