Friday November 7

Nicole Atkins & The Sea
"Like Rufus Wainwright with less piano, more atmosphere and a stronger pleasure principle. On Bleeding Diamonds, Atkins sets her swooping croon and dreamy melodies over sparkling strings, sha-la-la backup vocals and the light, loose jangle of her band, the Sea. "My songs are dark, but you can still do the mashed potato to them," Atkins says. "I want to sound like a girl group in a David Lynch movie." " - Rolling Stone

Monday November 10
Mark Kozelek

(Red House Painters/Sun Kil Moon)
"This sense of loneliness haunts Kozelek’s best work, and it’s in full force throughout April, arguably the finest album of his career." - 10/10 Paste Magazine

"April, his third full-length under the Sun Kil Moon moniker, and the first made up of new songs since 2003, easily bears the weight of expectations, proving once again that he really does transcend any slowcore or singer-songwriter tags that have been tossed his way." 9.1/10 The Onion

"The album draws its power not simply from the quality of Kozelek's songwriting, but from the close intertwining of words and music, which makes his albums much more essential than any book he could ever publish." 8.3/10 Pitchfork

"Throughout, Kozelek connects memory to emotion with masterful strokes." 8/10 Billboard

with special guest:
Stewart Lupton
(Childballads / Jonathan Fire Eater)
