Jarrod Bramson of Port Townsend, WA duo Solvents talks to Alex about the benefits of isolated music scenes, whether television really did kill the radio star, and a shared dislike of Amanda Palmer.
Music duo Solvents combine violin and acoustic guitar to create beautiful country-tinged melodies. The subtle melancholy of their songs may remind Scottish music fans of The Zephyrs, or Dundee’s The Strangers Almanac.

Solvents hail from Port Townsend, Washington USA. Alex and Jarrod’s paths crossed once upon a time on the K Records messageboard and on this podcast they catch up on what’s been happening since.
On most if not all podcasts to do with music, the show will play a track to do with the artist in question. Future Library doesn’t do that and although I found it refreshing in the beginning, during this episode I did find myself pausing it, playing two Solvents tracks on bandcamp, before returning to the podcast.
Should we add music tracks to each episode? Let us know by tweeting @futurelibrary1
All feedback appreciated!
