Hatred and greed
Answered by: Bär McKinnon
Album title? To Your Poverty Quietly Go
Where did the title of your new album come from? From a poem I wrote; a sort of commentary on inequitable distribution of wealth in this world of ours. Hatred of greed.
How many releases do you have now? As bandleader, two.

How long did it take to write/record? Writing the music was done over three years, recording took maybe three weeks all up.
Was anything in particular inspiring you during the making? Each track has its own little set of influences... Mostly I was inspired by the people that helped me put it together, and in many cases the limits of the equipment used for each tune.
What’s your favourite song on it? I think they all complement each other. It’s more of a suite than an album.
Will you do anything differently next time? Ideally it will be a three- or four-piece rather than a seven-piece band.
