Exclusive video premiere of ‘The Miner’s Pale Child’ by Pan American & Kramer, taken from the upcoming album, ‘Reverberations of Non-Stop Traffic on Redding Road,’ out March 22nd via Shimmy Disc.

Following the announcement of Pan American & Kramer’s forthcoming record, titled ‘Reverberations of Non-Stop Traffic on Redding Road,’ the duo is releasing the LP’s second single, ‘The Miner’s Pale Child’. The calming guitar drones and swelling tones paint a serene picture, evoking a sense of tranquility. The song’s ambient beauty is best described by Kramer himself, who called the song “A wordless love letter to WS Merwin, the great American poet of nature and peace – the great champion of the weightlessness of words.”

‘The Miner’s Pale Child’ comes paired with a new piece of Ambient-Cinema by Kramer.

Speaking on the album as a whole, Kramer said, “I would beg listeners both animal and human to allow these beautiful landscapes I’ve created in collaboration with Mark Nelson to sing and speak and weep for themselves. Please. Forget about words. Just LISTEN.”

Nelson also offered a quote, “It was an honor to work with Kramer. That we came out of it with a great friendship and a record that’s unique to each of our histories and music that we’re proud to share is a privilege and a joy. As for the music, this line from Arthur Russell says it so well: ‘If I could convince you these are words of love, the heartache would remain but the pain would be gone.'”

‘Reverberations of Non-Stop Traffic on Redding Road’ by Pan American & Kramer will be released in its entirety on March 22 via Shimmy Disc, and can be pre-ordered today.
