In his last years of life, poet/painter/songwriter Ed Askew worked again with his producer on 2013’s remarkable For the World album, Jerry David DeCicca, to create an evocative new set of songs, which would become The Final Painting. The twilight energy is at once lush and minimal, with contributions from Sharon Van Etten, Eve Searls, Canaan Faulkner, Bill Callahan, William Tyler, Ryan Jewell, Dustin Laurenzi, Fulvio Sigurta & Trevor Nikrant from Ryan Davis's Roadhouse Band. Bracing meditation on romance and the slow shuffle off our mortal coil.
