  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    Vinyl version of our second album In Need of Music.
    With this second album the project has evolved into a Belgian-American collaboration centered around Sam De Bock and Patricia Vanneste (Sohnarr, Hydrogen Sea, ex-Balthazar). The band, including Joey Waronker, Tim Lefebvre and Donny McCaslin, boasts an impressive collective résumé featuring collaborations with Roger Waters, David Bowie, Elvis Costello, Beck, and Sun Kil Moon.

    DRIFTWD aspires to create a distinctive sound, blending melody, structure, and an intriguing collage style that resonates with the likes of Massive Attack, Tricky, Lamb, and Mark Lanegan. The title is a nod to a nearly identically named poem by Pulitzer Prize winner Elizabeth Bishop.

about

"DRIFTWD worked with great passion on this record, and you can hear it in every tiny detail. An incredibly strong album that undoubtedly ranks among the best of 2024.

The duo developed a new genre that blends a wide range of influences.

Everything sounds just that little bit more mysterious, with melancholy and tension radiating throughout. From the instrumental opening track I Am Weightless, we are blown away by the sheer subtlety and beauty."


With the inclusion of internationally acclaimed talents such as Joey Waronker (Beck, Atoms For Peace, Thom Yorke, R.E.M.), Timothy Lefebvre (David Bowie, Elvis Costello, The Black Crowes, Sting), and Donny McCaslin (David Bowie, Dave Douglas, Sun Kil Moon), this band aspires to cultivate a distinct sonic landscape. The convergence of Vanneste's melodious expression and De Bock's structural, collage-like approach results in a unique harmony that resonates with influences like Massive Attack, Tricky, Lamb and Mark Lanegan.
