Hamilton Leithauser And Paul Maroon - Dear God (2015)

Dear God is the result of a near-constant collaboration between Hamilton and Paul. ‰''Hamilton and I have exchanged songs every couple days for over 15 years now. There are probably about 500 of them, often just one instrument with singing. Their mood is different from any record we‰'ve been a part of, pretty quiet and pretty lonely sounding. For one reason or another, we‰'ve kept these recordings to ourselves. Dear God is made up of our best songs from the past year, kept in their original form,'' says Paul Maroon. The album consists of nine originals and four covers, of songs by Don Gibson, Will Oldham, Tom Paxton, and VF Stewart, and it will be available on vinyl only.
