Angel Olsen has shared tracks from Camp Saint Helene as part of her forthcoming compilation, Cosmic Waves Volume 1.

Cosmic Waves Volume 1 is a compilation project consisting of both new, original songs from Camp Saint Helene, Poppy Jean Crawford, Coffin Prick, Sarah Grace White, and Maxim Ludwig on Side A, and a collection of covers from the aforementioned artists performed and recorded by Olsen on Side B.

On the heels of “Glamorous” by Poppy Jean Crawford and “The Takeover (Poppy Jean Crawford Cover)” by Angel Olsen, come two new songs from the compilation: the beautiful, big sky folk-oriented “Wonder Now” by Camp Saint Helene and “Farfisa Song (Camp Saint Helene Cover)” by Angel Olsen.

Describing her introduction to Camp Saint Helene, Angel says “We were driving to Trust, NC to shoot the cover and campaign for Big Time and Silken Weinberg and Angela Ricciardi were introducing me to some projects they were about to work on - one being for the band Camp Saint Helene, an album that was the perfect backdrop of cult folk for our adventure into the wild mountains of Buncombe county. After our shoot wrapped, I kept coming back to the record and feeling like it had encapsulated the memory of a chapter ending, and when I want to go back to the days of sunset at max patch, I put it on.”

Cosmic Waves Volume 1, will be released on 6 December via somethingscosmic.
