Well last night we played what we believe to be our last South China show until we can write and release something new. It was a beautiful show, and if Cross Record is coming your way, please check them out. Tonight they play at the Whitehaus in Jamaica Plain, then it's off to Cake Shop in Manhattan. Aleric Nez nailed an interpretation of "Tell Ol' Bill", one of my favorite old time-y songs. The things that man does with his voice are a marvel. Every few months you can catch him at Blue on Congress St. in Portland, backed by a small and mighty string section and other special guests.
So the week is young, and the coming days are filled with more opportunities for us to play for folks:
This Thursday, we'll be playing a Plains show up in Brunswick at the Frontier Cafe, sharing the bill with our friends Arborea oh my wow is that going to be a gorgeous show. If you've not hear Arborea, think traditional English folks songs and drones that are at once soothing and intense. Go here to listen to them and think of how happy you'll be when you're sitting right in front of them while they make this music. And? They live in our great state, right up the road in Lewiston. If you buy tickets for this show ahead of time, you can save two dollars.
On Friday, Jeremy will be playing in Portland as Drab Pony, hosting a show with our friend Rebecca of Nuda Veritas all the way from Burlington, VT. Experimental loops aplenty, with very different results. Rebecca can sound like a church choir all by her lonesome, and Jeremy can sound like an encroaching hurricane, and both also create achingly beautiful melodies.
The details of these two shows can be found on my calendar page...
