“St. Ignacio” is taken from “Hands in Our Names”, the first full length album from Tucson, AZ experimental musician Karima Walker, out March 24, 2017.
“Hands in Our Names” is a hypnotizing patchwork of drone, folk, psychedelia, field recordings and tape loops. Equal parts gorgeous and abrasive, comforting and confounding, “Hands in Our Names” builds abstract song-collages from disparate sonic components, isolating and harmonizing a wild array instruments and textures across the span of twelve interwoven tracks. “Hands in Our Names” is dizzyingly abstract at moments, but taken as a whole, the album moves like a half-remembered travelogue, with Walker’s understated, measured and beautiful singing voice acting as a compassionate tour guide through a wrecked landscape.
