Elder vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Nick DiSalvo has launched his new solo project Delving. The project will release its debut album Hirschbrunnen (meaning Stag Fountain in German) on May 28, and is streaming the hypnotic new single "The Reflecting Pool" right now. If you were a fan of Elder's all-instrumental album The Gold & Silver Sessions in 2019, you're really going to dig this.
"Hirschbrunnen – 'stag fountain' – is the colloquial name of a large fountain that presides over a large green area near where I live," said DiSalvo about the album and its name. "For me, it's been strange to see my world, which normally consists of a fair amount of travel and external stimuli, reduced to one city, one district, one block for so long.
"Frustrating as that is, you might start to find inspiration and surprising beauty in your everyday surroundings that you otherwise would have ignored. Just as all the music I make is influenced by my experiences, Hirschbrunnen is a product of this unique and strange time in which we all have been forced to delve more deeply into our own thoughts."
Hirschbrunnen is available physically here and digitally here.
