Coastlands is a collaboration who creates an ephemeral shape and form of the atmosphere of the Pacific Northwest in the take-it-or-leave-it tradition of ambient music. The project was started by Jason Sissoyev and Nick Fisher in 2011. In 2014 the group brought in Jordan Householder. They found common ground in their penchant for bizarre recording techniques and unexpected instrumentation while individually offering a range of obscure skills and artistry.
