about

The Isolation Waltz is Anton's second solo release. Continuing in the style of his first album, Noone Lasses, it centers around celtic tunes arranged for solo guitar. This second album ventures a bit further, including material from Scandinavia, some clawhammer banjo, and a few original compositions.

The Isolation Waltz was recorded on three wonderful instruments. A Spruce/Rosewood OM and an open back banjo both built by Fabrizio Alberico, and a 1985 Rosewood Standard by James Goodall.

It was recorded primarily using a pair of Gefell M300's mics, into an RME Babyface Pro interface and Logic.

Thanks very much to Doug Young for the mix/mastering, and all the great advice. Thanks to William Bajzek and Steve Baughman for always listening to my tunes and giving me honest feedback. Thanks Dan for the great cover photo. And thanks to my wonderful wife Katie for all the support.

Three Stones For St. Stephen (Christmas 2015)
by Three For Silver

supported by 4 fans who also own “The Isolation Waltz”

Not only was "Three Stones for St. Stephen" the finest Christmas song of 2015, it's one of the best damned songs of the year. Chaotic and beautiful, "Three Stones" is the sound of your personal angel and devil making out on your chest as you drive deep into a Christmas Eve tunnel, unsure if it has an exit. I don't know how to describe it; it's the sweetest nightmare you'll ever have. Merry Xmas, y'all. Hot Breakfast!
