SUMMARY:Amos Lee
DESCRIPTION:“There’s a lot of existential stuff in these songs\,” says Amos Lee. “If you really listen to what’s in between the lines\, there’s a lot of grappling with your place in the world\, grappling with loss.  There’s a lot of grappling with the balance between bailing out the boat and rowing at the same time—the experience of writing music and playing songs while trying\, as we all are right now\, to make sense of a world that feels like it’s changing really quickly.”   \nOn his eleventh studio album\, Transmissions\, singer-songwriter Lee continues to expand his sonic range while sharpening his closely observed lyrics that squarely address death\, aging\, and love. The force behind such acclaimed albums as Mission Bell and Mountains of Sorrow\, Rivers of Song\, ever since his gold-selling 2005 debut Lee has been known for his association with a long list of collaborators and touring partners\, from Paul Simon to Zac Brown Band.  \nFor the new project\, he craved a return to an old-school style of recording\, working with his longtime band in a studio in rural Marlboro\, New York that was built by drummer Lee Falco and his dad out of reclaimed wood from an old church (“it’s exactly what you’d think a studio in upstate New York should be\,” notes Lee). Playing live on the floor for long hours\, in close quarters\, they were able to capture the album’s twelve songs in less than a week.  \n“I really wanted us to be all in the room\, making music together\, listening to each other and responding to each other\,” says Lee. “In this age where you can do everything at home and fly it in\, there’s something really beautiful about getting in a room and starting at the top\, the drummer counting in the song and everybody just playing. I would call it vulnerability.”  \nDespite the simplicity of the set-up\, though\, Lee also augmented the band’s soulful\, folk-funk sound with arrangements that extend the scope of some songs. “I’ve done a lot of shows over the past few years with orchestras\,” he says\, “and I wanted to find a way to have miniature moments that could represent those experiences. If you listen to the end of ‘Night Light\,’ or ‘Built to Fall\,’ there are moments that express those ideas of collaboration and orchestration.”  \nTransmissions marks only the second time that Lee has produced his own album (following 2016’s Spirit)\, a daunting challenge even for someone so familiar with the musicians. But he was determined not to overthink or over-complicate the task.  \n“As a producer\, I had to have a clean and clear vision of what I wanted before I went in\,” he says. “Especially now that I’ve done ten albums. I’m not lighting a bunch of candles and trying to conjure the spirit—it’s either there or it isn’t. And it was there from Day One. We were playing the song ‘Beautiful Day\,’ and I thought\, ‘Okay\, here’s a song I have a demo for\, but I don’t have a full version in mind. I’ve never played it with anyone\, I’ve never shown it to anybody\, and it’s a bit of a weird\, herky-jerky tune.’ And the bass and drums kicked ass\, the guitar playing is really cool—so yeah\, I felt it from note one. I was never in doubt.”  \nThe’ last few years have been wildly productive for Philadelphia native Lee. After 2022’s Dreamland album (which featured “Worry No More\,” a Top Ten AAA hit and his biggest single in over a decade)\, he followed up with two full-length projects paying homage to musical heroes—My Ideal: A Tribute to ‘Chet Baker Sings’ and Honeysuckle Switches: The Songs of Lucinda Williams. He expresses his awe for these two renegade artists; Williams for her incomparable language and Baker for his delivery. “I love songs that have the ability to expose a wide range of emotions in a short song\,” he says. “That’s what my favorite songs always do.”  \nThe Baker album in particular had a strong influence on Lee as a vocalist. “I didn’t grow up singing anything other than what was on the radio\,” he says\, “and when I started playing guitar\, it was John Prine and Dylan and Bill Withers and this classic songwriter stuff\, but also all this ‘90s R&B that I loved. I’d never approached what we’re calling jazz—the classics\, the songbook—and listening to Chet singing and singing along with him was like\, ‘Oh\, my God\, how is he doing this?’ It was like taking a master class in control and where to use your voice. That level of singing\, that level of musicianship\, was hugely inspirational—you don’t have to sing loud all the time. You can be really vulnerable\, and soft\, and really be at your best.”  \nTransmissions is Lee’s first release of original music on his own label\, Hoagiemouth Records. “It’s just a sign of the times\,” he says. “Things have really changed for someone like me\, and I’m going to adapt. I always wanted to have some kind of small label\, so it’s a cool opportunity.” (The imprint is distributed through the Thirty Tigers company\, which Lee is especially excited about since he and president David Macias are friends through fantasy baseball.)  \nFresh off of some dates with Willie Nelson and heading into a co-headlining tour with the Indigo Girls\, Amos Lee notes that his attitude about being embraced by his peers and his idols has transformed over the years\, and that his gratitude deeply informs the emotions throughout Transmissions.  \n“I just appreciate everything a lot more now\,” he says. “When you’re younger\, you get it\, but you don’t really get it because you’re like ‘Oh\, cool—my first tour ever and I’m opening for Bob Dylan? Cool.’ Or Norah Jones\, the biggest artist in the world\, bringing you out right off the street. How do you appreciate that? I was just sort of clueless\, honestly. Not out of malice\, but you have no context.  \n“So now I’m just grateful to have a career\,” he continues. “I’m grateful to be asked to share the stage with folks who I respect and admire and love and want to learn from and want to support. Now it’s about really being present while it’s happening and knowing that this is not promised\, none of this is destiny. It’s a lot of chance. So I’m making sure to really enjoy and appreciate all these opportunities.”

SUMMARY:Dar Williams
DESCRIPTION:Dar Williams’ lyrics contain bouquets of optimism\, delivered on melodies alternating between beguiling lightness and understated gravity. Williams strongly believes that all of us possess our own power and ability to achieve\, and she rejects the exceptionalism that encourages us to “admire that yonder star\,” while making us feel small and insignificant; unworthy of shining on our own but hoping to catch enough distant light to inspire some tiny accomplishment. Williams has always been very interested in how to control our future and this album has to do with the fact that at some point\, you just can’t. \nLike everyone else\, Williams spent 2020 in that state of non-control. She and longtime producer Stewart Lerman tracked most of the album\, her 12th studio recording\, in November of 2019. In late February of 2020\, she cut the title tune in Woodstock with bassist Gail Ann Dorsey and Larry Campbell\, who produced the track and played guitars\, pedal steel and twangy baritone guitar. When told they had to postpone a mid-March mixing date\, Campbell said he wasn’t feeling well anyway. Turns out he’d contracted a serious case of COVID-19. That was a clear sign that at some point\, you have to meet life where it meets you …the common thread throughout that these songs\, the willingness to meet life as it arrives. \nDar Williams was always in the right place at the right time for the success she’s had over a 25+-year career. She rose out of the vibrant mid-90’s Boston scene\, inspired by the eclectic influences of alt-rockers\, Berklee jazz musicians\, slam poets\, and folk artists\, like Patty Griffith\, Melissa Ferrick\, the Throwing Muses\, Vance Gilbert\, and Jonatha Brooke. After a year of touring non-stop with her first album\, The Honesty Room\, in 1994\, she was invited by Joan Baez to tour in Europe and The United States. \n“Good and bad things happen\, and it’s not necessarily a reward or indictment. I’ve just got to meet it.” Williams observes. “Like\, I’m bringing my whole life to this moment; it will surprise me\, challenge me\, show me where I was wrong\, even make a fool out of me\, but my job is to show up and not take adversity personally. Real happiness doesn’t have to feel like Snoopy dancing with Woodstock; it can just be knowing you have the resilience to meet whatever comes to you. I will call that a good life.”

SUMMARY:Ocie Elliott
DESCRIPTION:Ocie Elliott pen tunes that feel lived-in. Ocie Elliott is the musical duo of Jon Middleton and Sierra Lundy from Victoria\, B.C.\, Canada. You can hear their memories\, experiences\, and emotions in the dusty acoustic guitars\, the sparse production\, and their graceful harmonies. The two have come a long way in a short time since a chance encounter in a café led to a spark\, collaboration\, and their ultimate partnership in music and beyond. Ocie Elliott’s debut album\, “We Fall In” (Nettwerk Music Group)\, led to appearances with the likes of Mason Jennings\, Sons of the East\, Kim Churchill\, Roo Panes\, Current Swell and Joseph\, tours of Canada\, the U.S.\, and Europe\, and having their song “Run To You” featured on an episode of Grey’s Anatomy. Sierra and Jon have cultivated a fast-growing following by releasing a captivating series of live acoustic videos on Facebook recorded in the cozy confines of the couple’s Honda CR-V (which\, Sierra explains\, offers “organically well-rounded and self-contained” acoustics that lend an intimacy to their intricate harmonies). The novel approach has paid off\, with a million streams of their most popular tracks on Spotify and Apple Music\, as well as sold-out shows. With gentle acoustic chords layered over gorgeously complementary voices\, which intertwine in gentle harmonies\, Sierra and Jon’s beautifully written songs explore\, of all things\, love and connection. The duo has been aptly described by one reviewer as “the aural equivalent of indigo painted skies and the first summer stars.” Ocie Elliott comes to Michigan with a new EP\, “What Remains\,” a batch of honest and heartfelt anthems of which Sierra says\, “Since we’ve been through so much\, all of these songs are so powerful to us. They’re simple\, but they hold so much truth. I hope it translates to people.”

SUMMARY:Darlingside
DESCRIPTION:Comprised of Don Mitchell\, Auyon Mukharji\, Harris Paseltiner and David Senft\, four likeminded multi-instrumentalists who first met at Williams College in 2009\, Darlingside’s career has been defined by the elegance of their compositions and the unity of their four voices. Their talent for harmony and melodic world-building is part of what garnered praise from outlets like NPR\, Rolling Stone and The New Yorker\, and what has created demand worldwide for their extraordinary live performances. Becoming beautifully unindividualized has\, in other words\, worked very well for Darlingside in the past. With a vigor and discipline more common to graduate-level writing workshops than to indie rock\, Darlingside has\, over the years\, experimented with all manners of idiosyncratic methods for elevating and upholding a truly democratic process of songwriting—processes that include multiple rounds of group writing and recording exercises—all with the aim of escaping the trap that bands with multiple songwriters often fall into: ego-driven infighting and artistic incoherence. \nIt’s a rare thing and becoming rarer by the day: a group of musicians with that emulsifying magic to make the whole greater than the sum of its parts. And to see Darlingside perform live is to confirm this special chemistry. With the release of Everything Is Alive (2023) the band will\, for the first time\, take to the road without Dave Senft. Instead of filling his spot directly\, the band has wisely chosen to honor the special chemistry of the foursome by letting those arrangements live on the recordings without obligation to faithfully recreate them onstage. While Dave remains a contributing member of the band\, on tour Darlingside will perform in a completely different configuration altogether—a configuration that will\, at times\, include the album’s drummer Ben Burns\, singer Molly Parden\, and others—proving again how the group can adroitly rearrange themselves for the breaking of a new and different day.

SUMMARY:Nervous But Excited
DESCRIPTION:Please review The Ark’s current COVID-related information before attending a show. \nCOVID-19 FAQ \nSince their hiatus in 2012\, Kate Peterson and Sarah Cleaver of Nervous but Excited have spent the years over 700 miles apart\, singing the melody lines in their own ways\, just awaiting the right time to bring the harmonies back. It’s been exactly ten years since their sold-out finale at The Ark\, and the stars have aligned for Kate and Sarah (and special guests?) to reunite at their favorite venue. As a thank you to The Ark for the years of support\, Nervous but Excited is donating $5 from each ticket sale to the club. \nBefore you even ask\, yes\, there will be nerves and there will be excitement! These two straight-from-the-heart songwriters on stage together is an experience no one can predict–even them. A few things are certain – there will be vulnerability; there will be silliness. There will be moments that honor gratitude and grief. There will be open hearts\, awkwardness\, and most definitely\, there will be laughter. And singalongs\, always singalongs!  Whatever the feeling\, it will be palpable. \nPleasantly Aggressive Folk Duo Nervous but Excited is two songwriters\, two singers\, three guitars\, a banjo\, a mandolin\, a ukulele\, dead-on harmony\, some vaguely choreographed dancing\, and an impressive amount of laughter. Their original repertoire ranges in topic from smart\, introspective narratives to the tactfully political… interspersed with songs of love and loss that will undoubtedly tug on your heartstrings. Their harmonies have been described as the kind that build so smoothly until suddenly they start to shake your insides. \nThis performance will be interpreted in American Sign Language.
