The New York based Progressive Americana group Nefesh Mountain has been hailed as one of the formative boundary-pushing ensembles in roots music. The band's creators and dynamic husband and wife team of Eric Lindberg and Doni Zasloff have created a world and sound all their own; blurring the lines between Americana, Bluegrass, Folk, Jazz and Blues with a masterful hand as songwriters, instrumentalists and composers alike. The band, declared "a powerhouse unit" by Rolling Stone and "introspective lyrics and world class musicianship" by American Songwriter, takes the listener on a deeply personal journey that embodies their own wild nature and unbridled free spirits.

The latest album from Nefesh Mountain, Beacons emerged from a bold and wholehearted attempt to transform the world around them. Soon after wrapping up a whirlwind tour booked with the mission of spreading their newfound message of radical love, co-founders Zasloff and Lindberg immersed themselves in the feverish writing of songs that turned their frustrations and fears into irrepressible hope, all while reaching far beyond their bluegrass roots and forging a fiercely joyful sound unbound by genre convention. By the time they'd completed that process of musical alchemy, the New York-based husband-and-wife duo had profoundly refined the band's vision and voice and arrived at the unfettered radiance of Beacons: an epic double album affirming Nefesh Mountain as a singular musical force—one whose deeply impassioned songwriting awakens us to new ways of navigating an endlessly troubled world.

Self-produced and mainly recorded at Sound Emporium Studios in Nashville, Beacons expands on the soulful intentionality Nefesh Mountain has brought to their music since forming a decade ago. "We live in such strange and divided times, and while we wanted this album to be a full-on celebration of American music, one of our main goals was to bring love, hope, and positivity into a world that sorely needs it," says Lindberg. "In the end we made a choice: instead of getting angry, we just made music." Although much of the album stemmed from their rumination on the political landscape (political polarization and division throughout the U.S., the Israel–Hamas War, and Russo-Ukrainian Wars), its spirit of purposeful optimism is made all the more potent by Nefesh Mountain's willingness to speak about their most intimate struggles and triumphs, including the birth of their now-three-year-old "miracle baby" Willow, and Zasloff's journey with sobriety. "This is definitely the most revealing and personal album we've ever made, which was a big leap for us," says Zasloff. "At some point it became obvious that if we're going to really open our hearts, we need to talk about things we've never shared before, with the hope that it will end up helping others." The result: a selection of lived-in and truly revelatory songs, each providing a beacon-like transmission of uplift and light.
