''Draw Breath'' is the third album released by
The Nels Cline Singers in 2007. It featured both abrasive musical textures and gentler compositions such as "Caved-In Heart Blues" and "The Angel of Angels," the latter of which ''
The New York Times'' called one of the prettiest works of
Nels Cline's career.
