Listen to grahamreynolds' TheUninhabited below
West Texas in general, and Presidio County in particular, may be lightly populated, but Graham Reynolds found an abundance of musical inspiration there for a multimedia trilogy he's launching with -- whose track "The Uninhabited" is premiering exclusively on, commissioned by the city's Ballroom Marfa art gallery. The and a rock opera about Pancho Villa are on the horizon.
"Marfa is an unusual town in that artists have moved there, and you get more collectors as well and there's an Air Force base out there," Reynolds -- best-known as Texas filmmaker Richard Linklater's go-to score composer -- tells. "You mix the rancher community and the arts community, and you have this strange, special place. In an area where small towns are super small or dying, you have this bustling artistic center in the middle of the desert. It's fascinating.
"But gradually, over years in Texas, I got to know country musicians and started doing little project with them until I did this deeper dive that became part of [ tracks, is designed to evoke the openness of the west Texas terrain and the composer's experience with it. "I spent so much of my time in cities that there's very little time where you're away from people," he explains.
"It's such a large band it may be cost-prohibitive to do too much touring." Meanwhile Reynolds has "a million things in motion," per usual, including a ballet piece using the works of Texan and Mexican composers and DJs to protest the border wall. "I've been working with Mexican artists for a long time," he says. "That predates this specific political moment, but it becomes more and more timely -- and I don't expect that to go away any time soon."
