This album takes us back to clay's roots, back to the village Rolling Stone magazine nicknamed "The Village of the Damned," a truly cursed place just off Route 13, where Clay grew up.
Soaked with hundreds of layers of guitars, alto & tenor sax, synths, reed organs, vocals, field recordings, violins, noise, samples and beats, this album captures Clay's life, living on a precipice through drought and 100-yr floods, singing to the river, mourning friends and family, feeling the past creeping in, an uninvited ghost off Rt 13.
Written, recorded & produced by Camero using solar power during the pandemic. More layers added at Freewill, Maine.
Mastered by Caleb Mulkerin. Cover art by Paul Miller Gamble.
Available as a download and as transluscent tangerine vinyl, featuring artwork collab with Paul Miller Gamble. Special edition of 400. SR 14

Clay Camero has been writing music since she was a kid and finds her inspiration in nature, in the ether, in rust belt towns, and in the stories of what the flood leaves behind when the water recedes. She lives on a river in the foothills of the mountains of Western Maine and most days she's convinced all of her melodies come from the water. She's been called prolific by many, and a creative genius by some.
Clay, also known as Caethua and Sports, has played in underground bands since she was 14. She believes in the power of music bringing communities together. She started SAXWAND RECORDS when she was 22. She has released over 10 albums, both on her label and through other labels over the years including Foxy Digitalis, Goaty Tapes, PRESERVATION, Psychic Sounds, BLUE SANCT, BATHETIC, NIGHT PEOPLE, WATER WING, Turned Word, FEEDING TUBE and more.
Clay is currently working on her next album on her land in Maine, and is reviving an old church from the 1800's to make it a venue and recording studio to help preserve the rich tradition of songwriting in Maine's Western Mountains.
