Where the Spirit Rests
2021
Glitterhouse Records
Backed at various points by his regular rhythm section of Žiga Golob and Blaž Celarec plus a variety of guest performers, including co-producer Alastair McNeill, Chuck Johnson and Chris Cacavas, on Where The Spirit Rests Eckman audibly sounds the veteran songwriter he is, the rough edges of his voice a complement and balance to much of the album’s hushed, late-night-in-a-quiet-roadhouse feeling. “Early Snow” sets a vivid, ruminative tone from the start; further songs like “Drinking in America” underscore the sense of hanging on as one can.
