James Blackshaw :: Unraveling In Your Hands

A formidable player then and now, James Blackshaw was considered a fitting heir to first wave Takoma artists like John Fahey and Robbie Basho. Following an extended break from performance in 2016, Blackshaw returns this month with a new album, Unraveling in Your Hands. It includes just two tracks. The title cut is one nearly half-hour composition for solo guitar, while “Dexter,” much shorter, includes string and wind arrangements by Charlotte Glasson, an in-demand session player, film soundtrack contributor and member of the Lost and Found Orchestra.
