Peals — the Baltimore duo of William Cashion (Future Islands) and Bruce Willen (Double Dagger) — return with twin releases via Thrill Jockey: The Compound 76 and Le Pantoum 46.
Both albums document live performances in artist-run rooms separated by three years and a continent. Le Pantoum 46 was recorded in 2013 at Le Pantoum, a long-running DIY space in Quebec City partly run by friend of the band Jean-Michel Letendre Veilleux, during a North American tour with Small Sur that followed Peals’ debut Walking Field. Andy Abelow, then of Small Sur, joined the duo on that tour and plays saxophone on Blue Elvis and Floating Leaf — both Walking Field originals — beginning a collaboration that would continue on subsequent Peals records.
