Search - Daredevil Christopher Wright :: Nature of Things

Born in 2004 out of the thriving indie music
scene in Eau Claire, WI, The Daredevil Christopher
Wright unites brothers Jon & Jason Sunde with the
percussion and vocals of friend Jesse Edgington.
Their first full-length album In Deference to a
Broken Back, an expansive and collaborative effort,
was released through Amble Down Records. Their
sophomore album, 2012 s The Nature of Things, is
the result of asking what can be created by three men
at ease with their instruments, storytellers at heart.
Where In Deference enlisted the help of a large
group of friends and fellow musicians, The Nature
of Things scales back. Recorded by Patrick Stolley,
founding engineer for the celebrated music blog
Daytrotter, the album reflects simplicity. Their
classical voice training and pleasing, unexpected
harmonies are evident throughout the album in
pieces such as Church and Ames, IA, where
we are allowed to glimpse, in eavesdropped
conversations, a couple divorcing, a meth addict
begging for freedom, and church bells tolling for no
other reason but that the dead rest below.
