The new J. Tillman Daytrotter session is up now!!! Check it out here.

SELECTED PRESS
"These songs whisper loudly to slow the world down, to preserve a moment and all its emotions, whether they're pleasant or-- more likely—painful"
– Pitchfork [read more here]
"...a lone wanderer battling solitude with sound."
– Spin [read more here]
"...a compelling whirl of Laurel Canyon-echo balladry and desolate-psychedelia stomp."
– Rolling Stone [read more here]
"His songs tell of broken hearts and rootless wandering and emotional disillusionment, but belief, or lack thereof, is the dynamo humming in the background."
– LA Times [read more here]
"He builds songs from the barest of bare bones musically, a thing of lightness, a simple acoustic-guitar figure underpinning Tillman’s ghostly, even tender, vocal. Vacilando Territory Blues…rests its head on your shoulder and whispers in your ear."
– Sunday Times UK [read more here]
"Intimate, confessional... Lovely, late-night album"
– MOJO
“Stark yet engaging, the album ripens with ruminative hymns ("Master's House," "Above All Men") steeped in Gothic Americana ("Firstborn," "Laborless Land"), the exception being the jarring and distorted Crazy Horse gold rush of cornerstones "New Imperial Grand Blues" and "Steel on Steel.”
– Austin Chronicle
"GvsB favorite…fans of Drake or Oldham would be wise to check him out"
– Gorilla vs. Bear
