Charmante folk par un trio danois, le quatre-piste étant mort durant la session, l'enregistrement s'est fait sur un mini-disc en pleine forêt....

Tender Buttons was a one-off - "let's go to Sweden and make a folk record!" - and so it was... Tanja Jessen, Marie A Jensen and yours truly traveling to a litlle cabbin out in the woods with instruments, a 4-track, an old echo-unit and some poems by Gertrude Stein for inspiration. On the second day the 4-track broke, and then we moved into the wood with a mini-disc instead.A limited edition 2x3"-cdr housed in a handmade cover with lino-cut prints was the result. Later we made a track for a forthcomming compilation on BBSTA of covers of songs by David Neuer, called Anybody's Anthems: a Tribute to David Neuer's "Mr. Anybody's Anthems", and that's more or less it. The 2x3" is currently out of print, though it might still be locatable at Sound Station, but a new, criticaly revised and wisely condensed, single (5") cdr version is out on Foxglove now. And as for new music...who knows? All of Tender Buttons are currently working together in Pink Luminous Invocation along other projects, but one day we might travel to Sweden again... MK
