2021:

Across The Susquehanna LP (releases July 16, 2021): Purchase

Fourteen brand new instant classics from Philadelphia’s original purveyors of fractured psychedelic shanty rock. Pared down to the original duo & every bit as potent they were in the days of The Demiurge, Bob Malloy and Bob Dickie assembled Across the Susquehanna in their private isolations in the year 2020 -- literally traversing the mighty Susquehanna River via the ether as they crafted the album. What they’ve come up with is yet another in the deep canon of Fieldhands classics, an album of uneasy lullabies rich with Barrett-damaged melodies, spare arrangements as likely to feature a horn section as an overdriven strat, and Malloy’s ever evolving vision of a timeless pastoral psychedelia. To those who have been following the Fieldhands from the beginning, this new one will prove an essential piece of the intricate puzzle. To those searching for an entrance into this hidden world, the way in is Across the Susquehanna.


2019:

Alluvium Trinkets LP - OUT NOW: Purchase

Newly-minted LP from Philadelphia's long-tenured, unclassifiable STRAPPING FIELDHANDS. Recorded during the same session that produced the "Impossible To Say" single on Richie Records some years back, Alluvium Trinkets is the result of the Fieldhands being holed up deep underground on the south side of town for the cold months, stocked with resurrected instruments, archaic recording gear, affordably-priced beer, and BOB MALLOY's trademark sense of melody & arrangement. Released on the Fieldhands own Omphalos Records.
