Grass Widow, Village of Spaces, Broken Water, Rattlesnakes FRI APR 29th

FRI APR 29th 2011 8pm sharp!!!!!!

107 HANOVER STREET PORTLAND MAINE

On Friday, April 29th, Apohadion Theatre will host Grass Widow with Broken Water, Village of Spaces and The Rattlesnakes.

Grass Widow (San Fran.), after making quite the name for themselves on their home coast west, have been migrating about this country, charming at every stop. Music that is never tired, weaving itself into and out of and into obscurity with just enough psychedelia to bring you to an ethereal plain with enough of a backbone to keep your heels close to earth with voices that flirt with the upper stratus. GW has appeared on the labels Make A Mess, Captured Tracks and Kill Rockstars (www.myspace.com/grasswidowmusic)
In

town for the evening to add expanse to an already great show is Broken Water (Olympia). Broken Water combines shoegaze with something ungazed upon, touched with grunge. (http://www.myspace.com/brokenagua)

VILLAGE OF SPACES......Inside Outsider folk music from the Beckman-Moon family. Beware, Vos will play first (http://ukeofspacescorners.blogspot.com/)

The Rattlesnakes, a favorite amongst local critics and fans to boot play this one as well. Despite the disclaimer buried somewhere on their Myspace profile that they no longer use that particular social networking site I think you can still hear some tracks on it. (www.myspace.com/therattlesnakes)

This show will begin at 8 pm EXACTLY. Please bring 7 or 8 dollars as a donation so we can give these volks all they deserve. See you on Friday.

Village of Spaces Corners Spring Tour Single

“I like the way they navigate.

I like hearing their process of navigation.

I think you will, too, and I think they’ll

take you to a place that makes a great

deal of of sense once you get there

but a place you might not find

without their help,”

GORDON BOK, 2010.
