Jason Sebastian Russo and co. hauled several half-tuned guitars, scraps of rusty metal, and a knee-high flood watermarked piano into a cow barn on Hill Farm in the english village of Steventon. So was born Common Prayer’s first album, There Is A Mountain, set to release digitally April 27th. Violin innuendos and organ riffs interlace with scrap metal samples and found sounds throughout this deep and dark folk album.
