The Microphones/Mount Eerie/Phil Elvrum Posted on March 23rd, 2006 by Rich Belize

Phil Elvrum

Seeing as I have been on a bit of a Phil Elverum kick lately, I figured I would try and put up some tracks for people to download.  If you are a fan of The Microphones or Mount Eerie or have heard of neither hopefully this collection of songs will get you started off in the right direction.  Elvrum is a unique songwriter who has attracted quite a cult following; take a listen and discover why.

    I plan on having him sign my copy of Live In Copenhagen. I wish I owned something more rare for him to sign, but sadly I’m not a very good fan.
