If you have been following TRISTE©, we’re sure you know Logan Farmer quite well (and you love him very much). He is a singer-songwriter and producer based in Fort Collins, Colorado. Combining elements of traditional folk, psychedelic, and ambient music, Farmer has released five full length albums since 2013, under the moniker Monarch Mtn., slowly earning him a devoted cult following. Still No Mother, out in 2020 on Western Vinyl, was the first record under his own name: eight magnificent songs, expression of his personal and evolved folk and the result of a deep sound research and refined arrangements. Farmer’s vision of folk is decidedly peculiar and modern. His second album, A Mold For The Bell was out in 2022, again on Western Vinyl with eight songs that beautifully lean on the vulnerability and turmoil of the human soul, the dignified failure, the kindness and generosity that sometimes almost goes as far as self-harm. Today Logan Farmer announced the release of his new EP, Butchers, where the songwriter’s understated folk is embellished with elements of dreamy Americana and trip hop textures, sharing its haunting and magnificent title track. The EP will be out, via Western Vinyl on May 23rd.

What Logan Says: “I feverishly wrote and recorded everything at home in the weeks following the presidential inauguration here in the states, primarily as a way to cope and to hopefully raise some money for the Colorado Immigrant Rights Coalition (I’ll be donating 100% of the Bandcamp proceeds to them)“.
