Seamstress in a Suitcase

• Track Listing

The Preservation label presents the debut album from the US artist Tan or Boil called 'Seamstress in a Suitcase'. The name Tan or Boil is a pun on the name of bratty short stop from those 1970s Bad News Bears films that stuck - and is the alias of Pittsburgh-born Jason Bacasa. The album is a collaborative effort with acclaimed Preservation artist Aaron Martin and was mixed by fellow Preservation artist Tony Dupe, aka Saddleback. A raw and strange beauty exists at the core of 'Seamstress in a Suitcase', though it's imaginative, gentle kaleidoscopic spin enhances that feeling as well as takes it somewhere else entirely. Tan or Boil has performed with Cat Power, Devendra Banhart and Joanna Newsom.
