The Lagniappe Sessions :: Big Bend
Aquarium Drunkard - Los Angeles Based Music Journal [Unofficial]
April 21, 2026
On their 2024 album Last Circle in a Slowdown , Big Bend took concert recordings and reconfigured them, bending that live energy into weird, spacious and intricate constructions. Leader Nathan Phillips does something similar for his project's first Lagniappe Session, turning these covers into loose, free and focused interpretations of the source material. Slowdown bore the light but pervasive imprint of Talk Talk, especially Mark Hollis' tentative yet determined phrasing and breathy, plein air timbre.
