Notes from the open file

Instruments, visual experiments, social fragments, and stories that may grow into something larger.

Archive premise

A band found in a box of papers

field note

The Scrips archive reads less like a promotional kit and more like recovered civic paper: set lists, tech riders, poster art, chapel recordings, venue notes, and screenshots from a working East Texas string band.

Chapel Sessions

Recorded live in six hours

September 2011

The Chapel Sessions materials say the EP was recorded completely live in a small chapel in the woods in Flint, Texas.

Visual language

Sparse mountain folk, East Texas edition

2013–2014

The poster archive and one-sheet language lean into old-time, folk, bluegrass, Appalachian myth, and indie-rock restlessness without turning into a modern band-site template.
