These Changing Skies

Their fourth full-length, 12 songs recorded in a barn studio near Seattle.
Elephant Revival, 2013

The 2013 line-up was Paine, Rose, Rodriguez, Cook and Law. Rose said the theme is about being constantly aware of the movement of change. Named tracks include "Birds and Stars" (the opener), "Remembering a Beginning", "Spinning", "The Pasture", "Rogue River", "Down to the Sea" and "The Rakers", an instrumental written by David Wiesler and played by Law. Songlines' Doug Deloach gave it 4 of 5 and Editor's Choice, hearing something like an Americanised version of Pentangle, and Folk Alley's Kim Ruehl called it the catapult that sails them above and beyond many up-and-coming bands. We could not obtain the full tracklist with times.
