Peppermoth - Glimmer Tide '2018

Tracks list

From Canadian producer and multi-instrumentalist Andrew McPherson comes the
second chapter of his ambient music project Peppermoth. Glimmer Tide continues
exploring the rich sonic terrain of Peppermoth’s debut, Now You Hear Me,
which paid considerable debt to ambient music’s forefathers like Eno,
Harold Budd, Daniel Lanois, Ryuichi Sakamoto as well as early 20th century
composers Claude Debussy and Erik Satie. With a less-ismore philosophy,
Peppermoth’s diverse palette of live instruments, sonic manipulation and
melody-driven composition invites the listener to lean forward and place
themselves in the songs as an active participant. 

Glimmer Tide features a small ensemble of skilled players like returning
contributors, brass player Gary Diggins (Kevin Breit, Cirque de Soleil, R.
Murray Schaffer), bassist and multi-instrumentalist Jeff Bird (Cowboy Junkies,
Loreena McKennit, Townes Van Zandt), alongside new addition Les Hartai (Eccodek)
on modular synths and Ableton. All of the material is played live, unsequenced
and manipulated on classic analog synths, tape delays and instruments including
trumpet, flugelhorn, piano, guitar, upright bass and Tibetan bells. 

Andrew also leads the world fusion project Eccodek. The Boston Globe called him
‘a sonic architect’. Hes produced and remixed for a global fusion
whos who including Dub Colossus, Vieux Farka Touré, Delhi 2 Dublin,
Transglobal Underground, Desert Dwellers, Dubmatix, Jane Siberry, Syriana and
Philosopher Kings with releases on labels like Six Degrees, Modiba, National
Geographic and Buddha Bar. 
In 2017, Andrew released his 4th solo album, Bardo.
