Mac McCaughan – cosmic synth master?! Those aren’t words I expected to write about the Superchunk/Portastatic frontman in 2019, but here we are. New Rain Duets, his just-released collab LP with Mary Lattimore, showcases Mac’s impressively adventurous synthesizer textures alongside the cascading shimmers of Lattimore’s effects-laden harp. Recorded live at the McColl Center for Art + Innovation in Charlotte, NC, the end result is kinda like a dream team-up of Terry Riley and Alice Coltrane . . .
