Derek Nelson

About the artist

Riders of the Tide is the full-band followup to Something Obscure, the acclaimed solo premiere of Derek Nelson. Recorded over four days in September at Engine Studios by Neil Strauch (Bonnie Prince Billy, Iron and Wine), and written and arranged by The Musicians, the songs on Riders of the Tide mark a distinct evolution from the sounds heard on its sparse predecessor. While more haunting, driving and urgent, Riders of the Tide keeps in touch with the sound that led the band to headline Chicago's largest clubs in its first year
