Label: Polyvinyl Records

Abstract

James "Jamey" Huggins (a.k.a. James Husband) originally hails from Sweden but he's mostly known for his work as the touring multi-instrumentalist for Athens, Ga.'s Of Montreal. He joined the band as a "part-time" player in 1998. Huggins is also a founding member/songwriter for Great Lakes and was a hired gun for several Elephant 6 associated groups, including The Essex Green, Ladybug Transistor and Marshmallow Coast.

 

Huggins relocated to Sweden to finish A Parallax I, his first LP for Polyvinyl. He previously released two homemade full-lengths, all independently recorded and exclusively issued in CD-R format. All of them are available at of Montreal concerts. The lush, lysergic release alligns with the Elephant 6 Collective's wide-eyed enthusiasm for '60s psych pop/rock. It was recorded between 2003 and 2008 in Kevin Barnes' home studio and Stockholm’s Up & Running and Truckland Studios, with Dottie Alexander (Of Montreal), Swedish pop star Jenny Wilson and producers Tomas Hakava and Johan Stenstrom.
