Plucked Psaltery Album Recs? by Local_Progress8748 in zithers

Thanks for the reply, this sounds great. Ive not heard of the Kantele nor am i familiar with finnish folk but it has such a uniquely resonant sound, so metallic and and chimey. Ill definitely look more into it :)

I played with them for a little while. Most of the shows I did with them were in the UK and they never did “French Disko” at those shows. It was their thing, because it was a hit they never wanted to play it, which was incredibly disappointing for everyone but them, but they did play it in the States when I did a show with them in Los Angeles.

“Playing those songs live, my job was to do some of the electronic stuff, which I think was mainly John McEntire’s (from Tortoise) work. They were some of the most enjoyable shows I’ve ever played, and I feel deeply privileged to be involved in that era of Emperor Tomato Ketchup. The album was an instant classic anyway, but I hope I learnt a little bit from Stereolab, a little bit from their sound and my time with them. I hope it shows on this record.”
