Text excerpt by Youngbloods:
"Youngbloods opens its 2024 programming by introducing The June Carriers project by Portuguese songwriter Francisco Silva aka Old Jerusalem. The full length album Equanimity is a departure from his prolific past, turning to open-ended guitar works that are warm in tone, measured in pace, and ponderous in structure. Equanimity casts a series of aural still lifes that reflect the wisdom (and namesake) borrowed from an ancient 10th century collection of Zen riddles. Silva points to one in particular: a pilgrim is asked what the purpose of his pilgrimage is, to which he claims he does not know, he is merely following the wind. Silva, finding himself in similar circumstances, found inspiration in the riddle’s conclusion that not knowing is most intimate.
[...]
Stylistically , Equanimity inspires visual apparitions and open-ended story telling amidst a blend of staccato-led rhythms and waves of embracing chords, reminiscent of the Atlantic rolling along Porto’s western shores. Shades of Americana and traditional Portuguese folk stand alongside whispering recollections of endless afternoons and warm days. Compositionally Equanimity stands atop individual snapshots of Silva in an unencumbered mode of creation, culminating and blooming into the intimate freedom of being unburdened. In this zen state of unknowing, we effortlessly become both the observer and the agent. Only then can the album find its conclusion, where enlightenment feels less fleeting. "
