Courtney Werner, known for her work with experimental folk music bands Magic Tuber Stringband, Dowsers, and Weirs, has announced her debut solo album, Tritium Forests. The album is set to be released on Thrill Jockey in February. Werner, who also works as an ecologist, continues to blend music with her ecological pursuits. The lead single, "sierra one whiskey eight", was inspired by recordings of various bird calls in early morning hours.
Werner describes the process of creating the track as imagining herself as another voice in the soundscape, communicating with the calls. The album features five tracks, including "november seven echo one", "sierra one whiskey eight", "november four echo one", "sierra six whiskey four", and "november five echo three". Tritium Forests will be available for pre-order starting February 26.
