Ow CASSETTE

Sylvan Esso built Psychic Hotline years before this to put music out on their own terms, and Ow is their first full-length album on it. Amelia Meath and Nick Sanborn spent several years writing and recording it at their home studio, Betty's, in Chapel Hill, pulling in a wide cast of guest musicians and drummers and keeping Meath's rawer first-take vocals in the mix. It follows four earlier albums that have already pulled in multiple Grammy nominations and close to a billion streams between them.
