The Weed Tree Espers SKU: DC736 Barcode: 781484073611 20.00 £20.00 Genre: Folk Label: Drag City Released Date: 13th March 2020 Buying Format: 1LP Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info The second Espers album, ‘The Weed Tree’, was released in 2005. It was a nearly inevitable endeavour for the group, made almost entirely of cover material but the traditional folk songs – ‘Rosemary Lane’ and ‘Black Is the Color’ – were paired with songs by Nico, Michael Hurley and even Blue Oyster Cult, making for an oblique run through eclectic aspects of the past that succeeded due to Espers’ thorough re-imagining of the material in their own image. The addition of current members Helen Espvall on cello and Otto Hauser on drums and percussion upped the alchemy of the band to its most potent, making music that drew from tradition but making it new at the same time.
