The duo developed guitar techniques and musical interests in tandem for over a decade of their young lives, and diverged into solo performances for a <a href=\"http:\/\/thebigshipband.bandcamp.com\/album\/split\">split cassette<\/a> right here on Hausu Mountain. The thirty-nine minutes of their debut LP <em>A Circle Is Forever<\/em> represent nine months of collaboration under the same roof &#8211; and the eternal love of fourteen years and counting. To stream the first cut from the album, &#8220;A Rabbit,&#8221; is to enter a succession of zones: multi-tracked guitar melodies, layered synth pads, acoustic flourishes, somewhere warm.<\/h5>\n<h5>&nbsp;<\/h5>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F80013476&visual=true\"><\/iframe>\n<h5>&nbsp;<\/h5>\n<h5>The duo&#8217;s live ensemble has expanded to include Max Allison &#8211; Doug\u2019s bandmate in drone trio Good Willsmith and instrumental rockers The Earth is a Man &#8211; on bass and tape loops, and buds Matt Baer (on guitar) and Stephen Waller (on drums).
