Shrunken Elvis- "An Old Outlet"

Shrunken Elvis, the trio of pedal steel expert Spencer Cullum, guitar guru Sean Thompson, and star-touched composer Rich Ruth, manifest a crop circle raga on their debut that’s polished with the astral shimmer of ECM’s heyday. “An Old Outlet” coils through its own circuitry of intricate instrumentation, as if the unit is synced with some buried obelisk thrumming beneath Nashville’s neon-lit crust.
