Allison de Groot & Rich Ruth- "Nervion"

“Nervion” is the title track from prize-winning banjoist Allison de Groot and Rich Ruth’s strange, intergalactic collaboration, with de Groot’s clawhammer banjo treated like a classical instrument against Ruth’s electromagnetic guitar engineering. What began as a de Groot solo record slowly leaked into something else entirely—a looping galaxy of natural sounds and electronic voices, a sci-fi lifeform glowing beneath a halo of circuitry.
