Lindsie Feathers
Dec 17 @ 8:00 pm

“The songs are about love, the life journey, slowing down, the planet and it’s dwindling resources, liberating cultural belief systems and programming, being true to the self, connecting to our ancestors and family, releasing fear, making choices, and honoring our heroes,” Lindsie Feathers says. “Spreading your wings and trusting in the flight.”

“More to Love” opens the album harkening immediately back to Feathers’ VHS roots, evoking classic Loretta Lynn with a decidedly modern twist. “Be Good To Me” is a rabble-rousing anti-fracking protest song, while “Swine” is a self-empowerment anthem–very different songs, yet equally effective. The lovely “On Our Way” is a gentle reassurance buoyed by Feathers’ tasteful lead playing, while “Honey Bee” is a honky-tonk rave-up with Feathers’ gentle vocal taking on a sly, winking quality, putting her choir of backing vocalists through their paces.

Traveling, creating, and sharing original live music are a few essential ingredients for the enrichment of humanity.  Norman Baker plays homage to this fact by introducing new and old songs to as many communities as possible. His new album utilizes undertones of pedal steel,mandolin, banjo, upright bass, clarinet, and of course an onslaught of acoustic and electric guitars telling stories of loss, loss prevention, camping, driving without cell phones, childlike innocence, home towns, and walking till your shoes wear through. When not traveling and playing with his full band, Norman Baker & The Backroads, he’s traveling and playing solo acoustic in far off amazing places such as The Sou’Wester, where he’s been visiting with his family since he was a child.
