Advance Base Live At Home

The last Advance Base show in front of a live audience was in Portland, Oregon on March 11, 2020, four days into a west coast tour with Claire Cronin \x26 Ruth Garbus. The following day, the COVID\-19 pandemic overwhelmed the public consciousness, my professional life as a touring musician ended, \x26 I began the long drive back home to Oak Park, Illinois, where I\x27ve sheltered in place with my wife \x26 kids ever since. Occasionally, I\x27ve broadcast live sets over the internet from my basement rehearsal space as a means to keep myself in practice \x26 to maintain a connection to the outside world. The songs on this album were collected from those livestream broadcasts. I\x27ve included three songs from each of the three Advance Base \x27studio\x27 albums, plus three songs from my former music project, Casiotone for the Painfully Alone. I don\x27t know if or when I\x27ll be able to tour again, but I\x27m grateful to have these live versions recorded as a document of what an Advance Base show sounded like in 2020. Thanks for listening. Owen Ashworth.
