SISKIYOU
Description
Siskiyou was formed by Colin Huebert and Erik Arnesen in the late 2000s while the two musicians were part of Great Lake Swimmers. Under the impetus of Huebert's hotel room and home recordings, the pair forged an approach to songwriting that was decidedly more stark and emotionally tense, marked by a minimal aesthetic, an economy of effects and arrangements, and an appreciation for the timbral and textural qualities of sparse elements. The band combines a back porch, moonlit looseness with a controlled, self-contained country gothic formalism that often finds the music circling within the cusp of restrained fury or frenzy.
