A Wednesday song is a quilt. A short story collection, a half-memory, a patchwork of portraits of the American south, disparate moments that somehow make sense as a whole. Karly Hartzman, the songwriter/vocalist/guitarist at the helm of the project, is a story collector as much as she is a storyteller: a scholar of people and one-liners. Rat Saw God, the Asheville quintet’s new and best record, is ekphrastic but autobiographical and above all, deeply empathetic. Across the album’s ten tracks Hartzman, guitarist MJ Lenderman, bassist Margo Shultz, drummer Alan Miller, and lap/pedal steel player Xandy Chelmis build a shrine to minutiae. Half-funny, half-tragic dispatches from North Carolina unfurling somewhere between the wailing skuzz of Nineties shoegaze and classic country twang, that distorted lap steel and Hartzman’s voice slicing through the din.
This looks like it would be fun!
I dig the song Chosen to Deserve
Hello! My cousin is coming into town and I’d love to be able to take him and my dad to a Draag show and show them a bit of Portland’s artistry!
Really missed an opportunity to have this on a Wednesday. I mean if it’s gonna be a weekday, why not that one.
Digging their latest album. Would love to see them live. Always love checking out new bands.
