I made a place

Description

The first album by Bonnie "Prince" Billy composed entirely of new original tracks since 2011. Bonnie "Prince" Billy does not know inaction: over the past 5 years, he has released several albums featuring new interpretations of songs by Susanna Wallumrod, the Mekons, Merle Haggard, and even his own compositions, as well as a record in collaboration with Bitchin Bajas! The only thing he hasn't done is an album of original compositions. In case you lost track, Wolfroy Goes To Town in 2011 was the last one. That dates back to the first half of the Obama presidency! Events happen for reasons that often elude us and are beyond our control. They occur suddenly or slowly, but they eventually arrive, day after day. Here is Will Oldham, at the confluence of the global market, values, aesthetics, and the process that slowly led to the writing of the album I Made A Place. The world has changed. Some things will never change. Some are gone forever. Fortunately, he is still here: the wait for the new Bonnie "Prince" Billy has now begun.
