Like a great chef going to the farmer's market in the early morning to find the freshest, tastiest ingreidents for that evening's menu; so Jared Blüm aka Blanketship, picks his way through the dusty vinyl at his local Goodwill outlet. He chops them up and whips them into a heady brew he has dubbed "Thrift Store Rock."
Unlike more typical sound collage outfits, Blanketship's tunes work as songs. By keeping true to a melodic sensibility and composition, Blanketship keeps your ears on their toes, creating a work that is both amusing and erie.
Think of Blankethsip as a band rather than a single artist. A group made up of dozens of trained and untrained musicians tied together by an eccentric composer/arranger challenging your aural standards.
