OVERVIEW: DM Stith is one of the most startlingly original artists to appear in recent times. His music ranges from the epic to the insular, from huge orchestral arrangements down to sparse guitar and vocal moments. Signing to Asthmatic Kitty after hearing just two songs, 'Heavy Ghost' is undoubtedly going to be one of the most loved and most critically acclaimed releases of the year. 'Heavy Ghost' communicates shimmering hopefulness to the brink of existential despair. His voice communicates the unfathomable - mysticism, the commingling of water and fire, waking dreams, spiritual torment - with such reckless abandon that is rarely seen in many albums, let alone a debut work. For Fans of Antony & the Johnsons, Jeff Buckley, PJ Harvey.
