The Overabundance EP follows Red River Dialect’s 2019 full-length Abundance Welcoming Ghosts (PoB-046) and includes three studio outtakes from that acclaimed album. The Guardian hailed Abundance Welcoming Ghosts as “alert, anti-colonialist folk” (and their Folk Album of the Month), and Pitchfork praised it as the band’s “most ingenious and immersive mix of folk and rock yet … finding joy in sensory pleasures as well as in the mystical inquests that music allows.” These songs by “the most underrated folk-rock band in Britain” (MOJO) are suffused with longing and raw loss. “Front Row” describes the emotional end of an evening after missing a Bill Callahan show, while “Old Afternoon” recalls a final meal with a father. “Slinky” is a moody instrumental.

Songwriter, singer, and guitarist David Morris writes:

Three songs couldn’t make it to the Abundance Welcoming Ghosts LP and have haunted it these past months. This EP contains perhaps the most intense and most free-flowing Red River Dialect moments, and the album feels somehow incomplete without them. At the same time they stand apart, being the three songs recorded during the album sessions that hark back to older times and well-worn themes.

+ The Overabundance EP comprises three outtakes from the Abundance Welcoming Ghosts sessions: “Front Row,” “Old Afternoon,” and the instrumental “Slinky.”
