After Balmorhea’s first, eponymous record raked in positive reviews everywhere, the duo signed a contract with Austin-based Western Vinyl, a record company whose eclecticism and strong international ties make them a perfect match. Since then, Balmorhea have secured excellent reviews for the follow-up “Rivers Arms” in some of the major American music publications, including rave mentions in Pitchfork Media and the All Music Guide.
