Vic Dillahay - Somewhere They'll Find Our Pieces

from Ellis Island Day Sampler (2023) by Curious Automata

about

With the 10th anniversary of Curious Automata coming up in March of this year (2023), I think it's time to clear
out the archives a bit. This is a collection of misfits, whose tone didn't match the projects for which they were
intended.

"Broken Tree" was improvised after my favorite shade tree was split in a late spring storm in 2017. It was
previously released as a rough cut for my Bandcamp subscribers but it's much prettier and has been edited for
time here. I think it still captures my mood as I waited to see if the tree survived, though.

Tracks 2-12 were all recorded during the two sessions for 2018's "We Were". Those were during the end of my
marriage, so they were a bit of an art therapy project as I went through a divorce. I wrote a list of things
to remember, then improvised around each idea. For the original album, I decided to lean toward the positive
tracks, so the remaining ones here have a bit darker tilt.

Also, in the spirit of moving on, all the tracks on this album are released under a Creative Commons Attribution
so anyone can use them as they see fit.

I hope you enjoy these moody leftovers, and thanks for listening.

-Vic
