‘The Mindeater’ EP is a collaborative project birthed by Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy aka Will Oldham and Dominic Cipolla, multi-instrumentalist and main brain behind the elusive The Phantom Family Halo. Cipolla, one of the founders of the Louisville music scene, now lives in Brooklyn but the two met while living in Louisville, KY where the EP was recorded.
The 4-song EP available digitally and on CD through the band’s new label Knitting Factory Records on September 27, combines the unique talents of these musical kindred spirits and features Bonnie “Prince” delivering some his eeriest vocal performances in years.
A very cool Fall tour is scheduled followed by a full length Phantom Family Halo to be released in 2012.
