about

Antarctica, is the second record from Paris1919, and the first to feature a full band, with Mike Croswell on lap steel, Randall Davidson on Cell, Tim Ritter on Bass, Mykl Westbrooks on guitar, Eric White on Water drums, and Chris Strouth conducting and electronics. Engineered by David J. Russ, based on the music from the February of 2014 at the Public Functionary gallery.

Antarctica was composed during Strouth’s recovery from a kidney transplant in 2009 and reflects the isolation of going through a singular event that has a profound impact on your life. It’s about looking into the void and the void looking back. Antarctica speaks to the experience of walking through that chasm–a feeling that most people have been able to relate to in some form, at one time or another. However, Strouth’s composition is also about perseverance and tenacity, using 1,000 years of Antarctica’s physical evolution as a metaphor.
