ABE PARTRIDGE in a very short time has become a revered songwriter, visual folk artist, and storyteller. If the names John Prine, Howard Finster, or Woody Guthrie mean anything to you, you need to hear this. He's been the subject of a very successful podcast called ALABAMA ASTRONAUT, toured the US and Europe extensively with Matthew Sweet, David Ford, Drivin' N' Cryin' and Red Clay Strays with whom he shares a side project with called The Psych Peas. This highly anticipated new album is produced by Steve Shelley of Sonic Youth.

Pilgrim Song is a collection of songs mostly inspired by Abe's quite unusual life - from rural Appalachian preacher to military war veteran to Alabama folk hero. The songs were all recorded to tape at the legendary Chase Park Transduction Studios in Athens, Ga with a band featuring Abe's longtime touring bandmates, along with Steve Shelley on drums. The songs range from the earthly to the surreal - at times playful and at others, serious as a heart attack - a soundtrack to a southern pilgrimage.
