Spinner: Tift Merritt Duets With Andrew Bird, Finds Musicial Sweet Spot on 'Traveling Alone' Oct 2nd 2012, 19:09 Spinner Spinner Tift Merritt Duets With Andrew Bird, Finds Musicial Sweet Spot on 'Traveling Alone' Oct 2nd 2012, 19:09 Filed under: News, Exclusive Parker Fitzgerald With her brand-new record, Traveling Alone, New York singer-songwriter Tift Merritt has in some ways gone back home in a figurative sense. First, after being on two different labels for her previous four albums, she signed on with Yep Roc Records, which is based in her native state of North Carolina. Second, Merritt sonically went for a rootsy approach on the new album (which comes out today) compared to her last record, the beautiful See You on the Moon. "See You on the Moon," she tells Spinner, "we wanted to have some freedom to build out from the guitar, and not just assume that it was a four-piece band/four-on-the-floor drums -- [and] kind of play around with texture a little bit more. [Traveling Alone] was a very back-to-basics, live-off the-floor, 'let's perform and be real musicians,' and then just take a picture of that. I think that was very much on purpose."
