Animal Collective’s current absent member played his first solo gig ever at Baltimore back on New Years Day (It’s almost been a week since new years already! – WOW)! It was a show to help him get prepared for his big appearance at the festival in the desert, in Mali. He tested his solo work at the Ottobar, and the Baltimore Music Blog, Bmore Musically Informed was there and recorded 5 of Deacon’s new songs! None of titles yet, so he just named them Deacon 1, 2, 3 etc.
You can check each one out below, and get a feel for Deacon/Josh Dibb’s solo work.The songs are very early Animal Collective. A lot more focus on ambience and space within music, using his voice as an instrument.
