People of the North is Kid Millions and Bobby Matador. The duo has a long history for creating explorative music and of pushing the limits in performance (Kid Millions as Man Forever and behind the kit in Oneida, Bobby Matador on guitar, vocals and organ in Oneida). As the duo People of the North, they have released a series of limited Long Player-only meditations on a particular musical concept. The parameters they set for themselves and the challenges they embody are often immense. The duo's core raison d'etre is to create relentlessly abstract music. It should be no surprise that their albums are quickly snapped up by New Music devotees. People of the North's The Caul is a musical attempt to grapple with the forces of one's personal desires and own inherent limitations in perceiving and understanding reality. Cauls are the membranes that cover the heads and faces of some babies when they are born, and in some folklore, caul-bearers are able to shift between logical and liminal states. "There are historical associations with cauls around precognition, superstition, and protection," Bobby explains. "The process of creating this music was intended to replicate experiences that are difficult to express or navigate through rational process."
