#diego clare

thank you to everyone who came out to our august 15th show, especially our hosts, Caity and Zach! 

remember to check out Diego Clare, EW Harris, and Zachary Joy Smith - these folky gents are so, so worth listening to. 

I met Diego Clare back in March at a friend's gig, and we got to talking about music making. 

At some point in the evening, he generously handed me a copy of his album 'Diegesis'. I didn't have any cash on me, and when I expressed my regrets about not being able to pay he said, 'Don't worry about it. I just want people to have the music'.

Well I also very much want people to have this music. The album is gorgeously produced, made up of a fully realized, full band sound that is as powerful as it is incredibly intimate. There are so many subtleties in the composition that you only catch on multiple listens: that distant, killer guitar riff and bass line or beautiful, ethereal melody on the strings. The vocals and lyrics also hit you where it counts. When his sound is stripped down to just his voice and the guitar, the impact is just as great. 

hosted by habitat tour veterans zach and caity smith in their lovely back yard!
