Liz Harris has had a busy year with her excellent and long-running project Grouper. She appeared on the Bug’s Angels And Demons and will sing on several tracks on his upcoming EP The Exit, and she also recently announced her new album, Ruins. Now you can listen to “Call Across Rooms” from the album, which was mostly recorded on upright piano in Portugal in 2011. It’s a wispy and beautifully sad piece of music that just goes to show, whether Grouper is in ambient mode, noise mode, or singer-songwriter mode, she writes emotionally gripping songs. Listen to and download it below.
