With the two brothers\, Ross and Rocky Lynch\, writing\, performing\, and producing all of the tracks\, their stylistically unpredictable music also conjures up every romantic association with heading out on the open road: limitless possibility\, the thrill of escape\, a refusal to stay in one place for any real length of time. \nWith massive hooks and immaculate production\, songs like “Feel You Now” and “Low” show the tight musicianship that Ross and Rocky have honed over the years in their longtime band R5-a five-piece whose self-produced 2017 EP New Addictions was praised as “full of sharply constructed pop confections” by Rolling Stone. It was during that band’s recent worldwide tour\, the two began dreaming up a new project that would allow them to explore their more experimental tendencies. \n“We had a bunch of songs we’d been gathering for a while\,” says Rocky. Although they avoided restricting their vision to any specific sound or style\, the duo did set some firm intentions for the new band: to create music without self-imposed limitations\, and to always push for sonic innovation. \nIn between polishing off the new songs-and hitting the road for their first tour as The Driver Era\, Ross is a critically acclaimed actor (he recently drew raves for his title role in the serial-killer biopic My Friend Dahmer and currently stars in Netflix’s The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina). And when they’re not actively creating\, the two are often out riding around\, listening back to mixes and working out song ideas\, constantly expanding what’s possible in The Driver Era. \n“A while ago I was reading a book that talked about how if you and a person are able to connect deeply enough\, you almost form a third consciousness\,” says Ross. “I think Rocky and I have that on some level. I don’t think either of us has felt so creatively charged up in a long time\, and it’s just a really cool feeling. The whole thing’s opened up our minds in this amazing way.” \nThe band released their debut album X in June of this year\, and just put out two new tracks\, “A Kiss” and “Forever Always”. Stay tuned for tour dates and new music by visiting https://www.thedriverera.com/. \n*** \nThe Wrecks \n \nWebsite\nFacebook\nTwitter \nLos Angeles-based indie rock band The Wrecks root from Thousand Oaks\, CA. The group consists of Nick Anderson (vocals/guitar)\, Nick Schmidt (lead guitar)\, Westen Weiss (guitar)\, Aaron Kelley (bass)\, and Billy Nally (drums). Heavily influenced by groups such as The Pixies\, The Strokes\, Weezer\, and Vampire Weekend\, this 5-piece isn’t afraid to blend undeniably catchy choruses\, with self-deprecative\, honest lyrics and vocals that pull you right to the center of each song.\nThe band actually recorded their debut EP on a whim\, alongside friend and engineer Andrew D’Angelo\, when they were surprised with the news that a friend had been granted access to a studio for just a few days. With a total budget of $0\, and only a week as a band under their belts\, the group set out to record the best songs that they could in 3 days. After working ridiculous hours through the night\, and to the next day whenever they could get in the studio\, the 3 days were over and the EP was cut. Little did the band know\, they were not even allowed to be in the studio that week. So through feelings of guilt and worry\, they cleaned every bit of information of theirs from the studio computer\, every crumb of Dominoes from the studio couch\, and they were off with their entire EP on an hard drive in a backpack.\nThe homemade “We Are The Wrecks” EP was self-released in March 2016. After hundreds of spins on Sirius XM’s Alt Nation\, and features on some of Spotify’s biggest rock playlists\, the band signed to Another Century/Sony Music in December of 2016. Their debut single Favorite Liar broke the Top 40 on alternative radio\, has over 6 million plays on Spotify\, and spent almost a dozen weeks in the top 10 of Alt Nation’s Alt-18 Countdown. After signing their record deal\, The Wrecks sought out to record a new EP in Los Angeles. 3 weeks into recording\, and after blowing almost the entire budget\, the band decided the music was going in the wrong direction and threw the EP away. “I just felt that we had strayed too far from the core of the band’s sound\,” says frontman Nick Anderson. “It sounded like we were trying really hard to get on the radio or something\, and I feel like that rarely gets you on the radio anyway.” So after getting their label and management on board\, The Wrecks decided to move into Anderson’s grandmother’s house in his small hometown (Wellsville\, NY) to work on the new record in a barn studio that their friend Patrick Barry owns. Co-produced again by Nick Anderson and Andrew D’Angelo\, The Wrecks say their new upcoming EP “comes from a genuine place\, and is something we’re all truly proud of.”

SUMMARY:[POSTPONED] Stephen Malkmus
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Bowery Boston \nDoors: 7:00 pm / Show: 8:00 pm \nThis show has been postponed to a TBD date. All tickets will be honored for the new date. \nTickets available at AXS.COM\, or by phone at 855-482-2090. No service charge on tickets purchased in person at The Sinclair Box Office Wednesdays-Saturdays 12-7PM. \nPlease note: this show is 18+ with valid ID.

Please make sure necessary arrangements are made ahead of time. All patrons subject to search upon venue entry. \n*** \nStephen Malkmus \n \nWebsite\nFacebook\nTwitter \nIs that a goddamn bouzouki? you may ask. A pedal steel guitar? What kind of Stephen Malkmus album is this\, anyway?  \nIt’s called folk music\, and it’s taking the country by storm. Stephen Malkmus is only the latest popular artist to apply this old new approach to their rock and roll sounds.  \nTake the name Traditional Techniques with as much salt as you’d like or dig the Adorno reference\, Malkmus’s third solo LP without the Jicks (or Pavement) is as organic as they come. It’s packed with handmade arrangements\, modern folklore\, and 10 songs written and performed in Malkmus’s singular voice. An adventurous new album in an instantly familiar mode\, Traditional Techniques creates a serendipitous trilogy with the loose fuzz of the Jicks’ Sparkle Hard (Matador\, 2018) and the solo bedroom experiments of Groove Denied (Matador\, 2019). Taken together\, these three very different full-lengths in three years highlight an ever-curious songwriter committed to finding untouched territory. Perhaps some of these “folk” musicians could take a lesson or two. \nCreated in the spontaneous west coast style adopted so infectiously by young American musicians in this time of global turmoil\, Malkmus took on Traditional Techniques as a kind of self-dare. Conceived while recording Sparkle Hard with the Jicks at Portland’s Halfling Studio\, Malkmus had observed the variety of acoustic instruments available for use. The idea escalated within a matter of weeks into a full set of songs and shortly thereafter into a realized and fully committed album. When he returned to Halfling\, Malkmus drew from a whole new musical palette–including a variety of Afghani instruments–to support an ache both quizzical and contemporary. Stephen Malkmus isn’t one of those “hung up” musicians one reads about so frequently these days\, sequestered in a jungle room of the heart. The jukebox in Malkmus’s private grotto remains fully updated. Not only is the artist present\, but he’s on Twitter.  \nTraditional Techniques is new phase folk music for new phase folks\, with Malkmus as attuned as ever to the rhythms of the ever-evolving lingual slipstream. Instead of roses\, briars\, and long black veils\, prepare for owns\, cracked emojis\, and shadowbans. Centered around the songwriter’s 12-string acoustic guitar\, and informed by a half-century of folk-rock reference points\, Traditional Techniques is the product of Malkmus and Halfling engineer/arranger-in-residence Chris Funk (The Decemberists). Playing guitar is friend-to-all-heads Matt Sweeney (Bonnie “Prince” Billy\, Chavez\, and too many other to count)\, who’d previously crossed paths with Malkmus on the opposite end of the longhairs’ map of the world\, most lately gnarling out together back east in the jam conglomerate Endless Boogie. \nBut\, buyer beware\, no matter how these recordings might be tagged by your nearest algorithm\, the expansive and thrilling folk-rock sounds of Traditional Techniques aren’t SM Unplugged. One might even question his commitment to acoustic instruments\, but we’ll leave that for somebody else’s hot take. All we’re saying is watch your head. Because alongside all that gorgeous folk music (“The Greatest Own in Legal History\,” “Cash Up”)\, there are also occasional bursts of flute-laced swagger (“Shadowbanned”)\, straight-up commune rock (“Xian Man”)\, and mind-bending fuzz in places you least expect it (“Brainwashed”).  \nIt’s hard to call Traditional Techniques “long awaited\,” because Stephen Malkmus just put out an album last year\, but it’s also exactly that. While he may have taken his sweet time in jumping on the folk music boom\, surely there are those among us who have fantasized about how lovely it might sound if SM would just get with the times. And it sounds like all that and beyond. Set a day or two aside to transcribe the lyrics like the Dylanlogists of yore (though please keep your garbology to yourself) and vibe on the shape of folk to come with Stephen Malkmus. \n– Jesse Jarnow \n*** \nQais Essar & the Magik Carpet \nWebsite\nFacebook\nTwitter

SUMMARY:[CANCELED] Waxahatchee
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Bowery Boston \nDoors: 7:00 pm / Show: 8:00 pm \nThis show has been canceled. Refunds are available at point of purchase. \nTickets available at AXS.COM\, or by phone at 855-482-2090.

Please make sure necessary arrangements are made ahead of time. All patrons subject to search upon venue entry. \n*** \nWaxahatchee \n \nWebsite\nFacebook\nTwitter \nOn September 7\, Katie Crutchfield’s ever-shifting musical project Waxahatchee returns with the Great Thunder EP. Featuring a collection of songs written with now-dormant experimental recording group Great Thunder while Crutchfield was also writing the Waxahatchee albums Cerulean Salt and Ivy Tripp\, the original recordings have mostly faded into obscurity. Unearthing and reimagining them with producer Brad Cook at Justin Vernon’s April Base studio in Wisconsin was a cathartic experience\, she says. \nOn the heels of last year’s critically acclaimed Out in the Storm\, Crutchfield found herself looking to take a sharp turn away from the more rock-oriented influences of her recent records towards her more folk and country roots. “I would say that it is a complete 180 from the last record: super stripped-down\, quiet\, and with me performing solo\, it’s a throwback to how I started\,” writes Crutchfield. “Overall\, the EP is a warm\, kind of vibey recording.” \nSome of the songs on Great Thunder\, like “Chapel of Pines” and “Singer’s No Star\,” stayed the same and will be recognizable to those intensely familiar with Crutchfield’s catalog to date\, while closer “Takes So Much” was built back up on piano from the bones of the original version\, surprising even the songwriter: “Until then\, I didn’t realize how beautiful this song was.” As Crutchfield entered April Base to record\, she became ill but opted to forge on\, beautifully stretching her voice to its emotional limits. \n*** \nOhmme \n \nWebsite\nFacebook\nTwitter \nOhmme\, Fantasize Your Ghost \nThere’s an obvious chemistry emanating throughout Ohmme’s music that’s so tangible it can only come from a decades-spanning friendship. Songwriters Sima Cunnningham and Macie Stewart formed their unbreakable bond performing throughout the fringes of Chicago’s many interlocking communities\, collaborating with titans from the city’s indie rock\, hip-hop\, and improvised worlds. But together\, along with drummer Matt Carroll\, they’ve stretched the boundaries of what guitar music can do starting with the band’s experimental 2016 self-titled EP and their adventurous debut 2018 LP Parts. Now their longstanding partnership culminates with the stunning and muscular follow-up Fantasize Your Ghost. \nOhmme formed in 2014 as an outlet for Cunningham and Stewart to explore an unconventional approach to their instruments. “That’s the whole genesis of the band: us walking up to our guitars and saying\, ‘how can we make this noisemaker do something different?’” says Cunningham. But as their musical collaboration strengthened\, bringing Parts and intensive tours with acts like Wilco\, Iron & Wine\, Twin Peaks\, and more\, the band’s scope and focus has also broadened. Fantasize Your Ghost is the direct result of the band spending more time on the road than in Chicago\, a record deeply concerned with questions of the self\, the future\, and what home means when you’re travelling all the time. \n“Grinding on tour last year for so long\, it can alter your mental state where you have to think about your life in a different way than you would if you’re home. A lot of the songs stemmed from just thinking about all of the possibilities that life could be and could take\,” says Stewart. On the commanding single “3 2 4 3\,” which tackles the terrifying realization of needing to make a change. The song opens with the two singing in transfixing harmony\, “Looked in the mirror the other day / Caught my reflection / My mouth had moved a different way / The muscles were straining.” Their deft scene-setting and the way their disparate voices blend together heightens the song’s inherent anxiety. Later\, they sing\, “Filling the holes to make amends / Tearing them up to start again.” These moments of emotional clarity fill Fantasize Your Ghost. \nWritten across 2019\, early sketches of the album’s tracklist were demoed at Sam Evian’s Flying Cloud Studios in upstate New York. “That’s where we really started to see the record come together\,” says Cunningham. The sessions were intensely collaborative and open: the product of long\, existential conversations between Stewart and Cunningham in the van about their lives and how to channel the anger they were feeling about the state of the world. Tracks like the driving opener “Flood Your Gut” underwent several revisions with Ohmme uncovering several new directions the song could go before finishing it. The refrain “your whole vision’s not enough” is a call to action\, says Cunningham. “Do you want to be someone who can disconnect or someone who is hyper-engaged and present?” \nFantasize Your Ghost was recorded over a six day session in August 2019 when the band decamped to the Post Farm in southern Wisconsin\, where Cunningham runs a yearly DIY music festival. With indie rock journeyman producer Chris Cohen and the idyllic setting just outside Chicago\, the songs came to vibrant life. Though Parts showcased their wildly burgeoning\ninfluences and talents\, Fantasize Your Ghost captures the astounding magnetism and ferocity of their live show. “Selling Candy” is the perfect example. It’s a small snapshot of childhood complete with nostalgic references to summertime hot dogs and wandering the city but set to an explosive\, stadium-ready fuzzed-out arrangement. Elsewhere\, songs like the dystopian dance rocker “The Limit” further stretch their already dynamic palette. \nFantasize Your Ghost encapsulates the thrilling and sometimes terrifying joy of moving forward even if you don’t know where you’re going. It’s an album that asks necessary questions: When life demands a crossroads\, what version of yourself are you going to pursue? What part of yourself will you feed and let flourish and what do you have to let go of? When they sing\, “Just walk out the door and / Don’t tell them goodbye” it’s drastic but also exhilaratingly hopeful. This is a record of strength\, of best friends believing in each other. Unapologetic and brave\, Ohmme are ready to figure it all out together.

Music was her first love\, soccer her second. After turning her focus primarily towards the former\, she entered Norwegian Idol and went on to earn her first hit\, “Shattered”. She signed to Sony ATV Music Publishing as a songwriter later that year and has since been honing her ear for a perfect pop chorus and identifiable\, genre-bending lyrics. \nIn 2018\, Astrid sold out her Party’s Over World Tour with 32 shows in the US\, UK and Europe before the release of her summer smash “Emotion”. Going from strength to strength\, Astrid ended the year by joining Years & Years on their UK tour\, culminating in a show at London’s O2 Arena. \n2019 kicked off with the release of Astrid’s upbeat smash “Someone New”\, alongside sold-out-shows in New York and Los Angeles. Shortly after\, Astrid joined Swedish superstar Zara Larsson on her US-tour dates throughout April\, concluding with the release of her huge\, emotional single “The First One”. \nThe end of summer saw the release of Astrid’s highly anticipated EP\, “Trust Issues”\, which was followed by her sold-out “Stripped Down Tour” across the US and Europe. The EP consisted of five tracks\, including inevitable fan-favorites “Doing To Me” and “Trust Issues”. The grand finale of the Stripped Down Tour was the surprise release of yet another EP\, “Down Low”\, which added four stripped down tracks to Astrid’s rapidly increasing catalogue. \nAs she looks towards her debut album and a 50 date World Tour in 2020\, Astrid recalls exactly what pop music made her feel like as a young girl in a small town. ‘The moment I put a Discman on I was in another world. It was magical.’ Now she is ready to translate that early metamorphosis for her own fans. ‘To give them a world to get lost in as well.’ She is ready to colonize pop music with her own indefatigable energy. ‘Now I feel ready to fly.’ \n*** \nJosie Dunne \n \nWebsite\nFacebook\nTwitter \nWhen most effective\, music possesses an almost supernatural ability to take listeners on a vibrant journey. Listen closely to a well-constructed song\, and an artist’s pathway to the present comes into laser-sharp focus. To that end\, if ever one was curious where Josie Dunne stands at a given point in her life\, her sophisticated and ever-soulful songs told the tale. Songwriting then\, for the 22-year old breakout singer\, has always been a matter of “deep diving into who you are as a person\,” she offers. Because you have to be super self-aware to figure out your sound.”  Having worked as a professional songwriter since age 16\, and now on the cusp of releasing Late Teens Early Twenties\, her soul-baring second EP for Atlantic Records\, Dunne says in so many ways we have been and are continuing to play witnesses in real time to her self-discovery.  \n“You’re hearing me grow up — the real growth spurt\,” the singer says of her meandering road towards finding herself and\, in the process\, her unique brand of soul-infected pop. On Late Teens Early Twenties\, a collage of sweet-and-sticky pop and timeless soul\, “You’re seeing me learn these lessons for the first time\,” Dunne says of her warts-and-all storytelling that\, in conjunction with an electrifying sonic evolution\, makes her one of the most thrilling\, buzzed-about young pop stars of the moment.   \nTo hear Dunne tell it\, Late Teens Early Twenties is the clearest distillation of her sonic and lyrical maturation. The process of constructing  To Be The Little Fish\, her debut EP released last year via Atlantic\, was a soul and sound-searching process Dunne likens to a healthy dose of trial and error. Only a teenager at the time\, she experimented with a mélange of sounds and styles. Not until she wrote and recorded “Old School\,” that EP’s centerpiece and her breakout single\, did she feel she’d truly found her musical voice. “When we wrote Old School\,” she says of the sticky-sweet single directly inspired by her parents’ relationship\, “everything shifted. I was like\, Boom! That’s the direction!” she recalls\, noting how prior to its completion she’d felt compelled to write for any and every genre\, but in pinning down what made her tick — fresh and funky soul music with a contemporary pop flair–  she finally felt at home.  \nAnd\, not surprisingly\, her evolution as a songwriter and artists has only continued: Dunne’s new music is the result of endless sonic tweaking and intense self-examination – a process that first began in her middle school years when she’d post cover songs to YouTube and play local bars and restaurants in her native Chicago suburbs\, and was aided by her endlessly supportive family of artists. “Everyone in my family is super-creative\, Dunne says. “All of my siblings do something in the arts. They’re my biggest fans. I don’t know how I could have done it without them. To that end\, her sister\, Maisy Dunne\, choreographed and stars in an alternative dance video for “Ohh La La\,” the infectious single from Late Teens she released earlier this year. \n“I have such a different viewpoint now\,” Dunne says of the songs that comprise her bold new EP. In addition to opening herself up like never in her songs\, the singer-songwriter injected them with a diverse palette of influence that more accurately reflects her current musical tastes  \n“Listen\,” she continues. “A shirt that I would wear as a 17-year old I’m not really trying to wear now. And it’s the same with songs.” It’s why\, Dunne says\, while her latest work undoubtedly pays tribute to her longtime love affair with vintage soul\, it also points to an ever-growing love of mainstream pop and hip-hop. \nDunne points to “Ooh La La” as a major turning point in her artistic advancement. Its initial spark occurring when holed up in a hotel room on a songwriting retreat in Las Vegas (“I have all these voice memos where I was humming the melody\,” she recalls)\, the hooky jam which she completed with Andrew DeRoberts\, one of her most trusted collaborators\, was a major vote of songwriting self-confidence for Dunne. “It was just me and my brain\,” she says of first dreaming up the chorus\, “so it became my baby  Having first been thrown into professional songwriting rooms as an inexperienced teenager at the time making monthly trips to Nashville while on leave from high school\, Dunne admits she’s long been a bit insecure about her songwriting prowess. “Ooh La La” then\, which since being released has notched more than 2 million listens across streaming platforms\, represents a major creative leap forward for her. Dunne calls it “the biggest personal step forward in my confidence as a writer and as an artist\,” but it’s only one of her several groundbreaking new songs. There’s Same\,” all sly ukulele riff and gentle finger snaps\, which found Dunne digging into the writing process like never before. “I really workshopped that song\,” she notes of the multi-month process finessing the track with co-writers Ryan Ogren and Sarah Solovay\, before it finally felt perfect. And on “Stay The Way I Left You\,” written with writer-producer Sam Ellis\, Dunne says she discovered how even a song so seemingly spare and small – it started only with a simple guitar figure – can have so much emotional resonance.  \nWhat Dunne is perhaps most excited about\, however\, is that her artistic evolution is an ongoing one. So much of that\, she notes\, can be witnessed via her mesmerizing live show. Dunne admits at first she suffered from terrible stage fright– “You could probably literally see my hands shaking” – but that’s hardly the case anymore. Having toured with a wrecking crew of top-notch A-list musical talent\, from Julia Michaels to Andy Grammar and Ben Rector\, she’s become a confident and charismatic must-see entertainer. “It’s been really fun for me to give life to these songs\,” she says humbly of taking her infectious anthems from the studio to the stage\, and in the process developing a fervent fan base.  “It’s been amazing because it’s such a great challenge but also anything is possible. You just keep learning.” \nDunne also says that it’s been entirely self-empowering learning how it’s not only acceptable but advantageous to forever be discovering fresh avenues of her creative DNA.  “Because every time I’d write a new song people would say\, “How does it compare to the last one?” And my answer always was\, “Um\, I thought I knew who I was and what I sounded like but now I guess this is really it” To honest\,” she continues\, “I realized that as a human being growing in the world your sound  and perspective are always going to change. And that’s a beautiful thing.” \nWhich leads back to Late Teens Early Twenties. Sure\, Dunne admits the title pays tribute to that critical time period between adolescence and adulthood which\, as it should happen\, runs parallel to when she created her new music. But\, on a larger level\, she says it more speaks to the way in which we should always be aiming to find out more about who we are as individuals as we do during that time period. “Everything stems from that growth\,” Dunne says. At any age\, she says\, “You think you’re an adult and you know the world but you’re still constantly discovering more about yourself and the world you live in. I wanted to take that feeling and turn it into sound.”

They released their fourth and most recent album ​In Mind in early 2017\, which was met with glowing reviews from media and fans alike\, many of whom fell in love with the brilliantly melodic songwriting and rich lyricism of the band’s previous breakthrough record\, ​Atlas​ (2014). Real Estate have played festival stages worldwide\, including Coachella and Glastonbury\, and the​ In Mind​ tour saw them play the largest rooms of their career\, to fans eager to experience album highlights like singles “Darling” and “Stained Glass”. Real Estate have been hinting at a new release\, with fans at recent 2019 shows being surprised with live versions of previously-unheard songs. It seems likely that 2020 will bring a fifth record from the beloved group\, who excel at “deriving meaning from shimmering beauty” ​[NEW YORK TIMES]. \n*** \nPalm \n \nWebsite\nFacebook\nTwitter \nPalm plays rock music backwards. Eve Alpert and Kasra Kurt’s guitars occupy themselves most often with the pace-keeping work typical of a rhythm section. Meanwhile\, Gerasimos Livitsanos’ bass and Hugo Stanley’s drums perform commentary and reportage from their deeply embedded positions at the front. The band is firmly attached to the physicality of rock\, but not as much its tone; their instruments tend to sound like any number of things at any given time. \nNone of the members of Palm are formally trained on their instruments. The band formed in 2011 at college in Upstate New York\, when high school friends Eve and Kasra met Gerasimos and Hugo. In those early days\, the band was just beginning to forge its collective musical identity through experiments in recording and performing live. \nTheir first album\, Trading Basics (2015)\, was written in Hudson\, NY\, a riverside outpost where the group could clarify its intentions outside the direct influence of nearby cultural capitals. That year\, the members of Palm relocated to Philadelphia\, where they continue to live only a few blocks apart from one another. This proximity has facilitated a level of collaboration necessary for a sound so slippery to remain in the firm grasp of its players. \nOn 2017’s Shadow Expert EP\, they made use of the steady hand granted by a tireless touring schedule\, cutting their songs to efficiencies of pop confection without sacrificing the avant-adventurism at the center. The effort was met with praise from such outlets as Pitchfork\, Stereogum\, Spin\, and Tiny Mix Tapes\, who likened the sound variously to Stereolab\, Slint\, Sonic Youth and Broadcast. With Rock Island (2018)\, Palm excuses the company of these myriad influences with a sly brush of a hand\, ushering the listener into a new domain\, thrillingly strange for all its familiarity.

The ocean was an abstract dread\, an obliterating void as untenable as outer space.\n	In January 2018 we went on tour. After years of scraping by\, we found our foot-ing with our fourth record Yours Conditionally. It was a commercial success that set us up to to play the biggest rooms of our career. But three shows in\, I developed a raging case of influenza. Each night I dragged myself onstage and croaked out the set in a de-lirium. After a particularly bad soundcheck\, Patrick asked me if we should cancel the show. I couldn’t imagine giving up the thing we’d work so hard to achieve. “I’ll be on stage even if you have to mic my coffin\,” I joked.\n		The next morning I fainted and had a seizure while grocery shopping for break-fast. Patrick carried me through the check-out lanes screaming for a doctor. I woke lat-er in a hospital bed. Patrick leaned over me\, crying. “That’s it\,” he said. “I’m canceling the tour. I thought you were dead. We’re quitting the band. I’m going to be an ac-countant.” But I was on the mend. We missed two shows and pressed on.\n		During sound check at the 930 club\, Patrick stepped out to take a phone call. His father had been in the hospital all week\, but he had cancer and brief hospitalizations were routine. Back at the hotel that night\, Patrick poured two shots of whiskey and handed me one. “I’d like to toast my dad.” He said. “The doctors offered to put him on life-support to give me a chance to fly out there\, but I didn’t want him to suffer. In-stead I said goodbye.”\n		Patrick went home to grieve with his family and rejoined us on the road two days later. I couldn’t believe how quickly our lives had unraveled in the midst of what was supposed to be a milestone in our career. As the tour continued\, we found refuge in playing music together. Songwriting had always been an extension of our inner-world. Now we retreated to that world every time we stepped onstage.\n	After the final show of our tour in Austin\, we received another phone call. Pat-rick’s mother Karen was in the hospital on the brink of a stroke. We got on a plane and went straight to her bedside. Her recovery took weeks. In the hospital waiting room\, I wrote the opening line of “Matrimony II”: I only have certainty when you hold my hand.\n	On a hot July day\, after Karen’s return to good health\, we sailed as a family in-to the Pacific and scattered Edward’s ashes at sea. I marked our position on the chart with a small x. The album was already well under way. In that moment\, I realized what I wanted to call it.\n	Swimmer is a tour of the darkest time in our lives. But it is not a dark record. Named for the feeling of suspension and upendedness that characterized this period\, it is the story of deep-rooted companionship strengthened by pain and loss. These songs carried us through our grief. It is us at our most vulnerable\, so we kept a small foot-print\, recording everything ourselves in our home studio. I set out to describe the love I have come to know after ten years of marriage\, when you can no longer re-member your life before that person\, when the spark of early attraction has been re-placed by a gravitational pull.  \nSwimmer is available everywhere February 14\, 2020.  \n*** \nMolly Burch \n \nWebsite\nFacebook\nTwitter \nIn a small-town South of Austin\, Texas vocalist and songwriter Molly Burch is relaxing in her sunny country home. The 27-year-old is enjoying the calm before the storm that will kick start when her much anticipated sophomore album First Flower hits the public. The Los Angeles native has found tranquility in the outskirts of Texas\, appreciating time on the front porch as cicadas sing in the distance behind her.\nBurch burst onto the music scene in 2017 with her debut album Please Be Mine\, a ten-track ode to unrequited romance that she wrote after studying Jazz Vocal Performance at the University of North Carolina in Asheville. Please Be Mine earned praise from critics for her smoky\, effortless vocals and bleeding-heart lyrics.\n“I was really blown away with how many people told me that the music has helped them through their own break-up\,” she says of Please Be Mine. “I was just so moved by that. I never expected it. I was aware that people were actually listening to my music and having a positive experience\, so [with the next album] I wanted to reveal my own struggles with fear and anxiety.”\nAfter a year of touring Please Be Mine all over North America\, Europe and the UK\, Burch returned to Texas to decompress. All of a sudden\, she was devoid of stimulation with nothing but time on her hands.\n“I was scared of not being able to write a great follow-up album\,” Burch admits. “I was in that state\, but I had so much time that slowly I was able to get some music out of myself. I would force myself to write every day. I gave myself a regiment. Once I got a few songs\, then I had the confidence to keep going.”\nBurch bounced her ideas off her bandmate and boyfriend Dailey Toliver who would contribute guitar parts and orchestration suggestions. The hurricanes kept them locked at home\, where they forced themselves to record demos and pump out as much material as possible. Slowly\, the album took shape and First Flower became real. When it came time to record\, Burch chose to work with Erik Wofford at Cacophony Recorders in Austin.\nFirst Flower is a walk-through Burch’s most intimate thoughts. Unlike Please Be Mine\, which focused on the contentious depression of heartbreak\, First Flower explores broken friendships\, her relationship to her sister\, and\, more importantly\, how Burch learned to fight overwhelming anxiety. Burch is a soft-spoken\, careful person who shoves her nervousness away on a daily basis.\n“I feel like people don’t see me as a nervous person\,” Burch says. “They don’t realize how nervous I am. I am good at fighting past my inner anxieties. I struggle with the anticipation of experiences.”\nFirst Flower is a bright\, beautiful album peppered with moments of triumph. Burch’s voice is as strong and dexterous as ever\, displaying her incredible range and professionalism as a vocalist. Opening track “Candy” is a swinging\, playful hit\, while “Wild” deals with pushing away fear. Songs like “Next to Me” and “Dangerous Place” examine failure and distance\, and the title track “First Flower” is classic Burch\, a simple love song that makes your skin raise with goosebumps when she breaks into the chorus. But the album’s true stand-out is “To The Boys”\, a courageous\, sassy fuck-you to her own self-deprecation where she learns to love all the things she hated about herself. “I don’t need to scream to get my point across/I don’t need to yell to know that I’m the boss\,” she coos over a sparse guitar riff.  “I’ve always been told my whole life to speak up\,” explains Burch. “I needed to embrace that and not care what people think.”\nThe album closes with “Every Little Thing”\, a haunting\, airy ballad that sounds like something Judy Garland would have sang while drowning her pain in pills and alcohol. First Flower is a shapely sonic stage to let Burch shine on. The composition and production carefully constructed to compliment and not over power.\n“I do not have the answers by any means\, but I wanted to talk about those imperfections\,” says Burch. “I wouldn’t want someone who listens to my music to think that I have it all figured out. I don’t. First Flower is me being transparent.”
