After the release and of his self-titled solo album and the ensuing tour, Adam Arcuragi began the arduous task of sorting through all the songs, sketches of songs, and half-songs that he wrote in the time since his debut was recorded in late 2005. The quality and quantity was quite astounding. Knowing that the path to realizing his second record in the grand manner it has been imagined, Arcuragi knew it would be a long path.
The five songs that make up the Soldiers for Feet were recorded during a
break from working on Arcuragi’s yet-untitled, soon-to-be-finished second proper album. Originally conceived as a home-recorded documentation of his new material, the sessions flourished into into a portrait of the artist in his most intimate situation — at home, playing and singing his songs, with his friends in tow. When you have friends in such great bands as BC Camplight, National Eye and War On Drugs, success was guaranteed. Arcuragi opens himself up with graceful charm; his new songs are bound to impress and recruit fans.
