Set & Drift by Old Million Eye
Old Million Eye is the solo musical moniker of visual artist/writer Brian Lucas. In the olden days he played bass and keyboards in the San Francisco-based instrumental band Mirza (Ba da Bing Records /Darla Records). In the slightly less olden days he co-formed the Bay Area “kosmische jazz” group Cloud Shepherd (Sky Lantern Records) who released several albums in almost total obscurity. The current era sees him playing in the exploratory music trio Angel Archer and as bassist for Dire Wolves (Just Exactly Perfect…, DWLVS, etc). Old Million Eye was first vibed in 2006 in Bangkok, Thailand, but has mostly kept in the shadows except for a couple self-released albums and the rare local live appearance, usually in a friend’s living room or garage.
His artwork has been exhibited in the US and Mexico. He lives in Oakland, CA.
‘Set & Drift’ is a lush collection of gossamer drones and lilting melodies with a touch of pastoral folk that intermingle to create something stunning and exquisite. This is possibly one of the most beautiful albums I have heard.
