While Breathe Owl Breathe isn’t from the NW, Palouse Washington is a second home to them. A small town between the border of Idaho and Canada (please note, this is geographically impossible). It is a mirage of trees, water, and hills in a vast dessert of green flowing wheat fields. The night I recorded this CassetteNW Breathe Owl Breathe put on a magical show featuring their new album Passage of Pegasus. Though tired from performing and driving all day they were kind enough to record to my cassette recorder after the show.
