I'll be heading down to Solar Culture tonight to check out Magnolia Electric Co. and The Donkeys. All-ages as always, the show starts at 9 p.m. and is $10.
I've caught Magnolia Electric Co. a couple times before - in May opening for the Avett Brothers and about three years ago at Congress - and there's no question the band is great at what it does. The new album, Josephine, is a high and lonesome set of songs, with guitar, piano, pedal steel and lyrics that evoke images that are precisely what the music calls for - filled with sundowns, shadows, horizons and a restless isolation.
The band is touring heavily - just over halfway through a 26-show U.S. run (in under a month, now less) and then after just a couple weeks off, they head out for another 27 European shows in less than two months. Catch 'em if you can.
