Biography


Michaelson began writing songs in his mid-20s.[1] Michaelson formed Absentee in 2003, the group releasing three albums between 2003 and 2008. In 2009 he began a side project, recording as Dan Michaelson and The Coastguards, the initial release under this guise being the Saltwater album and "Bust" single, released by Memphis Industries in 2009. A further album, Shakes, followed in 2010. The band included Henry Spenner (drums - of Fields), Laurie Earle (piano/guitar), Sanjay Mitra (bass guitar), and Horse (pedal steel/guitar).[2]

In November 2011, he released the solo album Sudden Fiction, inspired by time spent in Marfa, Texas, drawing comparisons with Bill Callahan.[1][3][4][5]

Blindspot followed in 2013 and Distance in 2014, released on The state51 Conspiracy. NME describe Distance as 'forlorn Americana to rival The National', awarding the album 8/10.[6]

Memory was described by Michaelson as the final instalment in an album trilogy that commenced with 2013's Blindspot and continued with Distance in 2014.[7]
