Additional Info:
The idea behind the "Home" is simple : Take two artists, ask each for three exclusive songs and, to finish it off, add a cover version of one of the other's songs to the tracklisting. This features Benjamin Gibbard (Death Cab For Cutie/The Postal Service) and Andrew Kenny (American Analog Set). Both artists prove that reduced singer-/songwriting does not necessarily have to deal with whining self-indulgence or with the tyranny of songs about the absent (ex-)girlfriend. Instead, Gibbard and Kenny both succeed in approaching the subject of this ep's title with subtlety: Home. After all, this is the place both are longing for most of the time, as they constantly travel from one gig to another. So it just fits nicely that all of these songs were recorded on fourtrack in the artisits' living rooms in New York and Seattle. The choice of their covers - Ben Gibbard plays American Analog Set's "Choir Vandals', Andrew Kenny interprets" Line Of Best Fit" by Death Cab can only stress their close connection. It's also telling that after over 50 releases on the label to date, "Home" impressed Morr Music enough to become the very first release that they've licensed from another imprint. High praise indeed.
