Hammock is an American two-fellow member ambient/postal service-rock band from Nashville, Tennessee, United States. Hammock creates atmospheric music by combining orchestral arrangements with electronic beats, piano and dawdling guitar.

Hammock take released ten albums and five EPs since 2005, generally on their own label, Hammock Music, which is distributed through Secretly Distribution,[1] and take garnered favorable reviews from critics, including Pitchfork [2] [3] [4] and AllMusic.[5]

History [edit]

Hammock was formed equally a collaboration betwixt guitarists Marc Byrd and Andrew Thompson, both formerly of alternative rock band Mutual Children, that developed out of informal recording sessions between songwriting projects.[6] Byrd and Thompson initially had no intention of releasing their studio efforts. After building up a collection of almost twoscore songs, however, they changed their minds. In December 2005, American webzine Somewhere Common cold voted Hammock Artist of the Year on their 2005 Somewhere Cold Awards Hall of Fame listing.[7]

Hammock gave their beginning live operation at a private event at Chuck Dodson's Gallery@404B in Hot Springs, Arkansas on Baronial 3, 2007, to honor Jónsi & Alex, the creative collaboration between Jón Þór (Jónsi) Birgisson (atomic number 82 singer and guitarist of Sigur Rós) and Alex Somers (graphic designer and member of the ring Parachutes), on the night of their United states of america premier, which was too their first-ever exhibition outside of Iceland. This operation eventually became the inspiration for Possibly They Will Sing for Us Tomorrow (featuring artwork by Jónsi & Alex), which was recorded live in its entirety, save for a few overdubs.[8] [9] In 2008, Hammock performed at the Wordless Music Series in New York Metropolis with Stars of the Lid.[10]

In May 2010, Hammock released their fifth full-length album, Chasing Subsequently Shadows...Living with the Ghosts. That December, Hammock released their fourth EP, Longest Year, a beatless and wordless mini-album that was born out of the difficulty the band faced in 2010, including the near-total destruction of Byrd's home in the epic 2010 Nashville flood.[8]

Over the next few years, Hammock expanded their musical horizons with a variety of collaborations and the addition of more of an orchestral attribute to their music. Hammock collaborated with singer-songwriter Matthew Ryan on the single "Like New year's day", released on January 1, 2011.[11] On March eight, 2011, the ring issued a cover of Catherine Cycle's "Black Metal" every bit a digital single, featuring vocals by Byrd's wife, Christine Glass (the couple had previously collaborated as a duo, GlassByrd). On October 5, 2011, they released a 4-vocal collaboration EP with Steve Kilbey and Tim Powles of the Church building chosen Asleep in the Downlights.[12] [xiii]

On July vi, 2012, Hammock announced that mastering had started for their sixth LP and first double anthology, Departure Songs. It was released on October 2, 2012.[xiv]

On May ten, 2013, they announced that they had begun mixing a new tape, Oblivion Hymns. The album was released on November 26, 2013, and was a notable departure from their previously guitar-focused sound, adding a neoclassical chemical element with a full orchestra, children's choir, and vocals from Timothy Showalter (Strand of Oaks).[eight]

On July 1, 2014, Hammock reissued their fully ambient 2005 album The Sleep-Over Series (Book ane), following it upwards with a sequel, The Sleepover Series, Volume two, on September 23, 2014.

Hammock's ninth album, Everything and Nothing, was released on April 1, 2016. Irish gaelic music and politics mag Hot Press said in its review that the album is "the audible equivalent of a flotation tank... an album to lose yourself in completely".[15] Haydon Spenceley, reviewing for Drowned in Sound, stated that the album has "clarity, purpose, drivenness, even, not words that would necessarily be associated with this stellar band's earlier work... This is music of transcendent beauty, but with an added level of dissonance that grabs the attending in a way that hasn't e'er seemed to exist Hammock's stock in trade before". Spenceley also claimed that Everything and Zip is Hammock'southward "almost immediate, nearly sonorous and beautiful album to date".[xvi]

On Nov 29, 2016, Hammock announced on their Twitter page that they were in the procedure of recording a new anthology, with Tedious Meadow guesting.[17] On June 21, 2017, Hammock announced via their Facebook folio that their 10th anthology, Mysterium, would be released on Baronial 25, 2017. They also released a video of the showtime unmarried, "Things of Beauty Burn".[18]

In 2018, Hammock released the follow-upwards to 2017's Mysterium with the album, Universalis. In 2019, Hammock released the follow-up to 2019's Universalis with the album, Silencia, thus concluding their self proclaimed "trilogy" [22]

In 2020, Hammock released a remaster of their 2010 EP, Longest Year, with a concrete release every bit well as new album artwork [23]
