Album Notes & Community Reviews
Named after the iconic northern constellation, 'Ursa Major' is an instrumental single that highlights the group's cosmic Americana style. The track layers weeping pedal steel guitar over deep, undulating synth drones to create a rich, meditative atmosphere. It serves as a prime example of their talent for mapping celestial imagery onto the vast physical landscapes of the American West.
