Bottle is the first album by the dream duo - Eliza Carthy and Tim Eriksen. These highly regarded artists from either side of the Atlantic have come together and mixed hardcore 'Americana' with hardcore 'Anglicana' and the results are inventive and thrilling. Made up of traditional material from both sides of the pond - and influences altogether other - Bottle, features fiddle, electric guitar, banjo and bass drum and is brimming with passion and energy. The 13 tracks include Buffalo, Logan's Lament and Castle By the Sea from America, alongside the Copper Family's Cats and Dogs, May Song and Whitby Lad from our own shores. The two artists have known each other for the best part of twenty years and had wanted to record together for some time. It was only on tours of the UK during 2013 and 2014 that they found the opportunity to do so. Bottle is the stunning result.Tim Eriksen is acclaimed for transforming American traditional music with his startling interpretations of old ballads, love songs, shape-note gospel and dance tunes from New England and Southern Appalachia. Tim combines hair-raising vocals with inventive accompaniment on banjo, fiddle, guitar and bajo sexto - a twelve string Mexican acoustic bass - creating a distinctive hardcore Americana sound that ranges across three solo albums of northern roots American music.
