“A REMOTE WILDERNESS” LIVE SERIES STREAMING VIA REVOLVER HERE
In just two weeks Steve Von Till hits the road for his North American Summer tour in support of his recent releases which include 2020’s No Wilderness Deep Enough, last year’s ambient A Deep Voiceless Wilderness and his debut book ‘Harvestman: 23 Untitled Poems and Collected Lyrics’. The tour starts in Minneapolis on July 1, covers both coasts, Chicago, Texas and includes a performance at Wyoming’s Fire in the Mountains festival. Tickets are on sale now. See below for a full list of dates.
Last year, Von Till joined forces with the highly esteemed Roadburn Festival to broadcast a performance for their 2021 online festival. He brought in filmmaker Bobby Cochran as the videographer and Chris Rahm as the audio engineer - together they captured an emotional performance in the legendary Robert Lang Studios outside of Seattle, WA.
Von Till explains, "’No Wilderness Deep Enough’ was new territory for me sonically, emotionally, and vocally, that I had been intently looking forward to the challenge of gathering a small group of musicians capable of interpreting it and putting myself out there in that uncomfortable but exciting realm of self-growth. It wasn't to be. Our live musical universe had been put on pause. Not wanting to lose the moment, I dreamt of having the set filmed professionally in a beautiful location with a nice piano and great sound. The answer came in the form of Roadburn Festival from Holland and their commitment to having a high quality online festival in 2021. I recruited Dave French on synthesizers, percussion, and guitar, Lori Goldston on cello, David Lutz on synthesizers, Eric Padget on french horn, and Oli Eshlemen on pedal steel.”
“The end result, ‘A Remote Wilderness’ is something I am very proud to have been a part of and I am grateful to all the people and their hard work to make it happen.” Since its initial private viewing for those that attended Roadburn Redux online last year, this film has been awaiting a new audience. Today Revolver debuts the series in its entirety - Watch / Share here:

Praise For Steve Von Till’s No Wilderness Deep Enough:
“Hauntingly gorgeous” BROOKLYN VEGAN
“a brooding piece kept in motion by long drags of strings, around which simmer eerie synth drones, industrial percussion, gothic piano” Rolling Stone
"Steve Von Till succeeds masterfully here in producing an ambitiously creative work that stands up to comparisons with the luminaries of the ambient and contemporary classical music worlds." 8/10 Ghost Cult
"The music is light and airy, simple yet deep and stirring with each rise and fall of the sweeping strings giving A Deep Voiceless Wilderness a feel like a soaring bird viewing a lofty mountain range...a beautiful experience to surrender yourself to." The Sleeping Shaman
“This album soars and transcends genres... one of the heaviest and most thought-provoking records of the past decade” CVLT
“meditative...a swirling, hypnotic mélange of ambient, neo-classical and gothic Americana” Revolver
