Heard on the show
“Detlef Schrempf”
EKHO Sonic Chill #2 · song 18 · Cease To Begin
Formed in Seattle in 2004 around Ben Bridwell, the sole constant member, after his previous group Carissa's Wierd fell apart. Big-sky American indie rock — reverbed guitars, Bridwell's high keening voice. Cease To Begin (2007) is the record that made them. The title is the name of the German-born NBA forward Detlef Schrempf, a three-time All-Star who played 16 seasons — but he is never mentioned in the lyrics, which are a bruised, tender goodbye. In 2025 they released Making Good Time, a covers EP with Iron & Wine.
