For the recording of ‘The Ax in the Oak', ben Weaver traveled from the Twin Cities where he is based, to Chicago's Engine Studios where he teamed up again with Brian Deck (Iron and Wine, Modest Mouse), the producer with whom he worked with on his 2007 release ‘Paper Sky'. Drawn together by mutual friends and a love for the shimmering, electronic pop of Austrian based musician Christian Fennesz, Weaver and Deck made a conscious effort to take a more experimental approach to Weaver's songs. Apropos to Deck's work with Califone, the result is an organic album with electronic elements, thoughtfully complimenting Weaver's earth-honest and indelicate delivery, while also not completely neglecting his folk-roots.
