SHOW: Swarming Branch + RF Shannon + Esther Rose

  • Lockhart Arts & Craft 113 North Main Street Lockhart, TX, 78644 United States (map)

Join us for an exciting show with hometown hero Shane Renfro of RF Shannon, and touring musician Esther Rose along with Swarming Branch from Wimberley.

From RF Shannon’s label Keeled Scales: Rain On Dust is RF Shannon's third album in three years. It expands on their desert soul sound, which has also been described as deconstructed Americana, mellow psych, and shoegaze country. This album is their first with Keeled Scales, coming quickly on the heels of Trickster Blues, (released in May 2018 via Cosmic Dreamer).

With Rain On Dust they've swum even deeper into the great underground rivers of American song and have put to tape timeless, memorable songs that sink in on first listen.

As much as she's a songwriter, Esther Rose is a scene setter, a crystalizer of moments, and a full time inhabitant of the dimly-lit world depicted in her songs. Rose found her voice over the course of years spent regularly performing and recording in New Orleans, combining her diy work ethic with an affinity for traditional country arrangements. Though still dressed with the dreamy lap steel, fiddle, and string bass accompaniment of earlier material, sophomore album You Made It This Far took on a far more personal tone. The songs were at times cuttingly direct, with storytelling lyrics culled straight from lived experiences both stormy and revelatory.

——

The hard to pin down indie rock experimentalists Swarming Branch have one permanent member, Andrew Graham, and a rotating crew of musicians on call to help him fill out his wildly diverse songs. Graham started his musical journey in the early 2000s in Columbus, Ohio with the indie folk troupe RTFO Bandwagon.
