Noir folk from New York, what’s that mean? Nah… folks I’m not telling you here. You have to come out to find out. LORD YOUTH is Micah Blaichman and he’s playing some kind of somber poppy folk rock that twists when you’d think it would turn, and that’s just what we’re looking for. His recent record Gray Gardens is very nice.
GRANDMOTHER MIRACLES (led by Vincent Taino) comes from a soul soaked folk place, delicate guitar work maneuvering gently
around vocals that bend but never break and are full of yearning, and if you’re open and you’re listening, you’ll hear this music calling to you. Really special, and a fantastic recent discovery in my own backyard.
MIKE HEWITT is the writer of songs for the Boston band SOLARS, and is another delightful and recent discovery who nails down a bounding and rich chamber pop/folk rock sound w/ his band. Here solo his songs will surely continue to delight though unadorned. Good songwriting is good songwriting friends.
TUFTS rounds out a rich and diverse guitar-centric bill with their lo-fi indie pop/rock. Earnest and heartbreaking Jessica Hesse sings
directly to your soul.
It all goes down @ Boston Hassle’s lovely performance space/art gallery & meeting place, Dorchester Art Project!
