Under The Endless Sky<\/em><\/strong> was recorded at Red Star Mule Barn Sound Studio in Austin, Texas, and engineered by Sam Whips Allison.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“This is truly cinematic music and checks the boxes on Ennio Morricone references: the tolling bells, deep twangy guitar, Spanish trumpets, the occasional wordless vocal,” writes David Arnson at Music Connection<\/a>. Julie River at New Noise Magazine<\/a> describes the title track as “…long and droning, and yet deeply melodic, as the use of a trumpet gives it the sound of an almost elongated jazz number.” Longtime fan and supporter, JJ Koczan at The Obelisk<\/a> says “\u2026Cort\u00e9ge<\/strong> for sure have a defined modus\u2026with some rustling and wind chimes on a neighbor\u2019s porch, layers of drone, a rattle, a vague threat looming\u2026mood is so much of the point.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Originally rooted in doom and consistently helmed by Mike Swarbrick, Cort\u00e9ge<\/strong> expanded into the realms of drone and electronic soundscapes. Drawing from early electronic composers, progressive rock icons of the \u201870s, instrumental music, film score elements and the cowboy psychedelia-drenched guitar twang of famed Lee Hazelwood discovery Duane Eddy, the band\u2019s sound continued to evolve and draw influence from the aesthetic of the old West. A hallmark of the trio’s sound is their use of tubular bells both in the studio and live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Austin-based drummer Adrian Voorhies (Humut Tabal, Canyon of the Skull) joined the band in the fall of 2017. By 2021 April Schupmann (Sniper 66) joined on trumpet and percussion. Cort\u00e9ge<\/strong> will appeal to fans of Duane Eddy, Pink Floyd, Ennio Morricone, Earth, The Who, Yes, King Crimson, Electric Light Orchestra, The Stranglers, Jean-Michel Jarre, The Police, The Mars Volta, Tony Williams. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
