about

Formed by Joey Dussault, Matt Dwyer, and Aaron Swartz, Brooklyn band Bard’s Flying Vessel wrote and recorded their debut album "I" in bedrooms across Brooklyn and a cabin in the Catskill mountains of upstate New York. "I" finds Matt singing over wailing synths and frenetic drumming, all set to Aaron and Joey’s fuzzed out riffs. Combining the styles of heavy psych, acid folk, garage rock, and surf, the band layers together sounds that build new worlds.

Along the way the band linked up with some collaborators who added their own twists to the heady stew that is "I". David Glasebrook (Sugar Candy Mountain, Oliver Ray & Patti Smith) mixed the album and New Zealand based graphic artist Callum Rooney created the original artwork for the album cover.

"Spawned from their garage rock roots in Boston, the madmen of Bard's Flying Vessel have transported your favorite Narragansett-soaked basement deep into a cosmic forest on BFVI, blending psychedelic guitar solos, ethereal droning synths, and dreamy multi-part harmonies. Recorded up in the Catskills, the first record from this Brooklyn-based trio feels like you're crunching through a mystical underbrush, guided only by the light of an old wood elf's cig. Take a hit of the elderberry and prepare to get lost my friend..." - Wyatt Fair, HELLTRAP NIGHTMARE
