"
Bed Maker
's origins date back to summer 2019, when bassist
Arthur Noll
(
Light Beams
,
Kid Congo Powers
) and drummer
Vin Novara
(
The Crownhate Ruin
,
1.6 Band
), each having played in
Alarms & Controls
, invited guitarist
Jeff Barsky
(
Insect Factory
,
Time Is Fire
) to collaborate and see what might happen. By autumn, they invited
Amanda MacKaye
(
Desiderata
,
Routineers
) to join them, and the chemistry was immediate. In February 2020 at DC's Rhizome, Bed Maker played their first show and then paused their activities the following month, as did most people. Due to the state of the world in 2020 and 2021, they continued writing music through sharing recordings.
Mike Schleibaum
assisted by assembling home recordings of their individual parts into working demos. This allowed them to keep momentum, and by the time in-person rehearsals resumed, a handful of songs and new ideas were close to fruition. Bed Maker resumed playing shows in November 2022. Following a self-released digital single ('Miss Dickens') and an EP (
Three on the Tree
) -- each recorded with
Schleibaum
and
Matt Michel
at Viva Studios -- Bed Maker began work on their self-titled LP in May 2023 with
Ian MacKaye
and
Don Zientara
at the original Inner Ear Studio in his basement in Arlington, VA, and with Mike Schleibaum at his home studio in Maryland. That their debut LP even exists is only possible thanks to the support of family and many friends, and also serves as an act of defiance to the horrors of the last four-plus years."
