Krimsky, Eliot

***I Made My House is the new album by composer and songwriter Eliot Krimsky, a journey through grief, memory, and time. Sparked by the unexpected passing of his father in 2022, the album evokes a liminal space of loss where dreams, memories and the afterlife drift in and out of focus.

Known as the lead singer and co-founder of the art-pop band Glass Ghost, Krimsky brings a deeply personal sonic palette to this work: intimate harp-like piano, tape-styled manipulations, layered trumpet & sax improvisations and his distinctive falsetto.

At the heart of the album is an archival cassette tape; a conversation between Krimsky and his father from the 1980s. This fragile recording pulses and weaves throughout the album, grounding songs that tell a story of emotions through love, impermanence, and the passage of time.

Using techniques like re-amping his father’s voice in the house he grew up in, tape delays, and recording his childhood piano from three floors above, Krimsky creates sonic spaces that stretch across time. What began as a way to process profound loss became a house built from sound, memory, and the transformative power of music.
