Leslie Graves and Toby Goodshank

In the organizer's words:

The Rösslstube is happy to announce:

Leslie Graves and Toby Goodshank

Brooklyn-based artists Leslie Graves (Gold, Endless Arrows) and Toby Goodshank (The Moldy Peaches, The Pizza Underground) have joined creative forces on their forthcoming album Between Worlds (BB*Island).

Acoustic guitar and vocal harmonies make up the core of their music, which draws from a variety of folk-rock influences including Sybil Baer, Judee Sill, REM, Linda Perhacs, and Jessica Pratt. Their lyrics are dreamlike stories that speak to the resilience of humanity, and offer a meditation on love, nature and growth.

Many instrumental threads are interwoven throughout with the invaluable skills of Jake Nicoll (The Burning Hell) who lovingly engineered and embellished the recordings.

Speaking to their process, Leslie writes, "Toby is great at composing song structures quickly. It was fun to feel into the emotion of the chords and write from there. The process was like chiseling away at a stone to reveal the sculpture underneath. I like when songs come like that - when it feels that they are teaching us as they are revealed."

Doors open at 7 pm, concert starts at 8.

Free admission, but there will be cultural drinks and a hat.
