Press release:A ragtag collective of virtuostic musicians led by Nate Greenslit (of HUMANWINE and What Time Is It, Mr. Fox?) and Vessela Stoyanova (of Goli and Fluttr Effect), Bury Me Standing describes itself as Gypsy Dirge-Core, a strange intertwining of Balkan folksong, art metal, and psychedelic avant-pop, whose songs meditate on wars within and without.
Their core instrumentation is singularly unique, including digital marimba, found-object percussion, prepared upright bass, and haunting, Bulgarian-inflected vocals. Their formidable roster of collaborating musicians varies from show to show.
Wondered if you were aware that Oysterband (UK) have written a song called “Bury me standing” inspired by Isobel Fonseca’s book of that name.
