The Foundry Field Recordings March 2, 2009

Hailing from the Midwestern college town of Columbia, Missouri, The Foundry Field Recordings have been perfecting their shoe gaze indie-pop craft and meticulously gathering underground acclaim, since late 2002. Originally, the project started out as a platform for songwriter Billy Schuh to present his musical exploits with a revolving cast of characters, known simply as The Foundry. As it became obvious that the group was evolving into a true collaboration between all members, in 2005 they took on a new name, The Foundry Field Recordings. The band celebrated it with the release of the Battle Brigades 7" and another tour, which lead to the recording of, The Foundry Field Recordings Live at Schubas digital album for emusic. After three full years of painstakingly collecting binaural recordings, conducting visceral field experiments, and many late nights in the studio ... all this hard work finally brought to fruition the amazing concept album, 'Prompts/Miscues' in 2006.
