Volume 1

All new studio recordings of David Bazan & Passenger String Quartet performing songs from the Pedro The Lion and Bazan solo catalog. The seed for this album was planted during a one-off show back in 2012. Bazan was invited to play a show in Tacoma WA with the Passenger String Quartet. PSQ leader Andrew Joslyn put together string arrangements for a few songs and it was an enjoyable evening for all. They immediately began talking about making studio recordings of these songs but it took nearly two years for everyone s schedules to line up again. In February 2014, they were able to spend a week at Avast! Studio in Seattle tracking a collection of 10 songs pulled from Pedro The Lion and Bazan solo albums. David Bazan was the songwriter and driving force behind the acclaimed band Pedro the Lion, building a dedicated following and selling a few hundred-thousand albums. After a decade helming the band, he found himself in a philosophical and spiritual cataclysm, wrapped in a growing drinking problem. Bazan got to work exorcizing both his demons and angels, ditching the band moniker in favor of his given name and has since released Fewer Moving Parts EP (2006) Curse Your Branches (2009) and Strange Negotiations (2011). The Passenger String Quartet is an avant-garde, experimental neo-classical group, formed by Northwest composer/violinist Andrew Joslyn. The group tours & performs original compositions, as well as backs a wide variety of national touring groups from DJ Spooky, Suzanne Vega, to Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, Doug Martsche, and many more.
