The Barr Brothers' second album Sleeping Operator showcases the Montreal-based band's fearless exploration beyond their Canadian folk roots into a captivating worldly soundscape. Released in 2014, this engaging work opens with Oriental-influenced harmonies that set the tone for an album that masterfully blends African influences with devilish American folk, creating music perfect for dancing around the campfire.
Recorded primarily at Studio Mixart in Montreal with additional sessions spanning from Iceland's Greenhouse Studios to the Banff Centre for The Arts, Sleeping Operator represents a band unafraid to experiment and push boundaries. The result is a distinctive mix where The Barr Brothers sound unmistakably like themselves while incorporating diverse global influences, making this double LP gatefold release a compelling addition for collectors seeking adventurous folk and world music on vinyl.
