Artist
After Ryan Montgomery and Dave Teufel’s former band, Heroes in the Seaweed, split, Ryan continued writing and performing privately, frequently to audiences of one. When he decided to finally take his newer songs out of the bedroom and into the studio, he asked Dave to reawaken his gorgeous cello accompaniment. The result, which was recorded almost entirely live by Charles Burst at the Seaside Lounge (Brooklyn), is a handful of sweet, stripped-down love songs. Maintaining the intimacy of their birthplace, the melodies flaunt their imperfections and deliver moments of guiltless beauty and bittersweet humor. After the album’s recording but before its release, The Soft Collapse added drummer Rob Galgano (also a former member of H. I. T. S.) and a second vocalist, Jane Cramer. They are currently planning their follow up album and can often be found performing on the Lower East Side and in Brooklyn.
