The Chameleon welcomes Jonny’s Day Out and Over Under for a night of killer music on Saturday, July 18th in The Jaguar Room! Doors at 7:00, tickets are $10 now or $15 the day of. This is an all ages event.Jonny’s Day OutJonny’s Day Out is the result of many years of friendship centered around the inescapable love of creating. Members of the PDX rock band have been playing together since they were in elementary school. Their sound was formed from the indie rock scene of the 2010's, but has morphed into something wholly unique over the years. Today, they still embrace that childlike wonder while on stage. You’ll find a sense of ridiculousness in just about everything they do from the lyrics and sounds that bubble up in their songs to the band name itself. You will also find some sort of animal joining them on stage for every show. The reason why is still a mystery. Their self titled debut album “JDO” will be out everywhere June 18thOver UnderOver Under is a psychedelic indie rock band based out of Salt Lake City, Utah. The band started making music in the basement of their childhood home in 2019. After playing venues across Utah, Over Under traveled the US and parts of Canada on three tours in 2022. The band has currently released 7 independent singles, a self-titled EP, and their debut studio album "Memory Lane" that can be streamed anywhere you listen to music. They continue to write, record and perform original music and are excited to see where music takes them next!

Florry &amp; Friendship bring their Flowin’ Northwest&nbsp;‘26 co-headline tour to The Chameleon on Wednesday, July 29th! Doors at 7:00, tickets are $20 GA. This is a 21+ show.FlorryA far cry from the cool, calculated distance and reserved posture that is all-too-familiar to the indie-rock sphere, Florry, the Philly-bred septet and songwriting vehicle of bandleader Francie Medosch, are marking their territory as a band resolving to do something very different: they are having a really good time out there.Cutting her teeth in the Philadelphia DIY scene starting in 2019 as a student at Temple University, the early days of Florry found Medosch at the end of her teenage years releasing a slew of singles and EP’s in a familiar idiom of lo-fi bedroom recordings tinged with country melancholy. A lot has changed since then. Most importantly, perhaps, the project snowballed into a barn-burning seven piece rock band in the proceeding years; and without sacrificing any of the emotional immediacy that's come to define Medosch’s brashly earnest, bleeding-heart lyrical style, you’re unlikely to find her lingering as much on the melancholy these days. Or, as Medosch plainly puts it in regards to Sounds Like… , the band’s forthcoming LP:“The Jackass theme song was actually a really big influence on the new album”The release of their 2023 formal full-length debut The Holey Bible (via Dear Life) found Medosch now flanked by six bandmates and trafficking in a wider, more rock-oriented approach with the bravado of someone with a new lease on life. With Jon Cox (Sadurn, Son of Barb) on pedal steel, John Murray on electric guitar, Colin Dennen on bass, Will Henrikson on fiddle, Katya Malison (Doll Spirit Vessel) on Vox, and Joey Sullivan (Bark Culturr) on drums, Florry 2.0 had arrived. The retooled seven-piece embraced a lengthy run of tours dialing in their new kinetic sound and freewheeling chemistry including runs with Fust, MJ Lenderman, Greg Freeman, and Real Estate. Greeted to critical acclaim upon its release, with positive notices from outlets including Pitchfork, Stereogum, Paste, and Brooklyn Vegan, the album quickly introduced Florry to an expanded audience and pointed a way forward for Medosch and the band at a time when the future wasn’t so clear.“I had a job lined up selling insurance, I guess I figured that was that, you know?”As it turns out, that was not that. A few days went by, and then the phone started ringing. From managers, from booking agents, from indie-rock elder statesman Kurt Vile, who took the band on the road in support of his 2023 Back to Moon Beach LP.On the winkingly titled Sounds Like… , the band’s second full-length release via Dear Life, Florry is picking up right where they left off in 2023. Again upping the ante with a bigger, brighter, more abrasive sound that resembles something closer to Rolling Thunder Revue-era Bob Dylan than their humble DIY roots. Across ten tracks, the band wear their influences on their sleeve while carving out a space that is distinctly their own, blending raw honky-tonk grit and rich instrumental textures with the disarming sincerity and intimacy of the group’s lo-fi beginnings. It’s a record about searching—searching for home, for love, for meaning, and for a sound that captures it all.As Medosch croons on the red-hot opening track, First it was a movie, then it was a bookLast night i watched a movie the movie made me sad ‘cause i saw myself in everyone how’d they make a movie like that?FriendshipMusic for sleeping and waking, walking and driving, hunting and fishing, for loitering outside a roadhouse on the haunted tundra. Okay in elevators, not great for dinner. On Caveman Wakes Up Friendship’s new album and second for Merge Records, the band’s historically capacious definition of country music grows wider still. Shambolic guitars are offset by flute pads, bleary poetry is set against a Motown rhythm section, a song about Jerry Garcia and First Lady Betty Ford fades out with a drum solo, like if Talk Talk came from a dingy Philadelphia basement, and was fronted by James Tate. Songwriter Dan Wriggins’ ragged baritone cuts through eleven murky, swirling country-rock songs with profound lyrical substance and sincerity. Like an alarm clock incorporated into the edge of a dream, Caveman Wakes Up belongs equally to the conscious and subconscious mind, fraught with background, steeped in reference and experimentation, delivered casually and as a dire warning, dedicated, above all, to music’s creative soul.

Anna Tivel and Sam Weber play The Chameleon on Saturday, August 15th in The Jaguar Room! Doors at 7:00, tickets are $20 GA. This is an all ages event.Anna Tivel - Animal Poemhigh up silver howling bird / looking down to see the world /spinning out into the vast forever / flying is a faithful dance / animals suspended at the place where understanding touches vaporHere we are. Mysterious humanity unfolding. Animal nature howling. How do we learn what it means? Maybe being here is a story told by all of us at once, a constant reaching for language, an impossible telling of something inherently indescribable. Animal Poem is a meditation on the attempt. How do we talk about destiny from the balcony of a nation in decline? How does our attention shape the way we touch the natural world? In the face of endless avarice and cruelty, how do we talk about the realness of love?Recorded live in a circle with some of my dearest friends, Animal Poem was made in conversation. We wanted to be together in the room, to listen and respond in real time without the separation of walls and headphones. I met Sam Weber the summer before and resonated deeply with his musicality and his reasons. We sat around on porches swapping tunes and I asked if he would help me make something that felt as unadorned and free. He donned hats seamlessly – co-producer, engineer, musician – setting mics and checking levels before returning to curl around his guitar and disappear into each song. Everyone in the studio made it feel so open, made it easy to forget technology and permanence and just play, messy and alive. It’s this vital mess that moves me when I listen now – ghost notes in the high register of the piano, melodic guitar and bass lines briefly interwoven, earthy cymbals breathing, my dog barking. We came back to add saxophone, strings, vocal harmonies, and a few other tastes, but most of what you hear is just people sitting together in a small room, listening and talking with tenderness and abandon.The songs were written on long drives across the country, airplanes, walks through my neighborhood, nights spent lying on the roof. Every album is a snapshot, a momentary study of the way a mind reaches for understanding. I can feel myself reaching in these songs, for whatever is right beyond my grasp. Mortality and connection. Suffering and meaning. People lead the narratives, come into orbit, spin away again – an exhausted mother at a freeway exit, an aging neighbor surrounded by a growing pile of newspapers, the unsung heroes of a midwest uprising, two lovers looking at the sky.It’s hard to know how to hold a creative life in a time that feels fraught with venomous division, careening technological advance, and an ever widening chasm between the affluent and the dispossessed. What good are poems when affordable housing is scarce, the climate teeters on a dangerous edge, and war breaks out over misinformation spread by profit hungry algorithms? I think about being here. How brief it is. How incomplete our understanding. I think about history. All the worlds we’ve created and broken. Revolution and renaissance. Hope and humility. Everyone here is living a creative life – teachers and parents, kids and convenience store clerks. We’re all tasting this wild existence, finding ways to express how much it hurts and moves us. This work is my own small addition to that communal story. The water we swim in. The way our attention molds our truths. Humanity is unfolding as we describe it. We’ll never get it right, but the attempt is everything.sorry and i’m listening / is a poem that’s always been / beautiful enough to kill the darkness / you can be someone who loves or you can be somebody else / i tell you kid the first one is the hardestSam WeberSam Weber (born October 26, 1992), is a Canadian singer-songwriter, guitarist, music producer and recording engineer. His own recorded works and collaborations with Bahamas, Madison Cunningham, and producers Robbie Lackritz and Tyler Chester have yielded millions of streams.

Raynes and David Wimbish &amp; The Collection stop in Spokane at The Chameleon on their co-headline tour on Saturday, September 19th! Doors at 7:00, tickets are $20 now or $25 the day of. This is a 21+ event!RaynesBritish-American trio Raynes formed when Mat Charley and Joe Berger, both born and raised in North Dakota, came across a video of UK native Mark Race on Instagram and fell in love — first with his face, then with his voice. After a few messages and phone calls, Mark was on a plane to the US to start a band (a few months later, he had the flight number tattooed on his arm).Since then, Raynes has signed with Sony Music Publishing and released six singles and four EPs,drawing hundreds of thousands of monthly listeners and tens of millions of streams and earning press in Billboard and People. They’ve performed at BottleRock Festival and in clubs, concert halls, and amphitheaters across the US and the UK, developing a reputation as a high-energy live act. In 2025, Raynes’ rendition of “I Want You to Want Me” was featured in an episode of Love Is Blind on Netflix.Known for their intricate vocal harmonies and unique instrumentation as well as their poetic lyrics, Raynes has yet to come up with a good answer as to what genre their music falls under. With all three members coming from different musical backgrounds, the boys combine their diverse influences to form a group that draws inspiration from around the globe, incorporating elements of folk, rock, and chamber pop with Celtic and world music to create a wholly original — and difficult to categorize — sound.David Wimbish &amp; The CollectionDavid Wimbish wasn’t sure he had it in him to make another record. In the span of a year, the folk-pop/rock singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist went through a breakup, moved from Saxapahaw to Asheville, entered a new relationship and became a father, all while Hurricane Helene devastated his community. Friends went missing.There was no clean water for months. At the same time, his longtime band was falling apart. But through the exhaustion and uncertainty, David found his way back to music—and back to himself. Now based in Richmond, Virginia, David returns with Heavy Love, the warm, bracingly honest new album from David Wimbish &amp; The Collection. Written and recorded largely in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, the album marks David’s first project created almost entirely on his own, with him writing, producing, and recording the record from a studio he built in his parents’ North Carolina home.Growing up surrounded by music in North Carolina, David launched The Collection in college and has since built a devoted following through anthemic, heart-on-sleeve albums driven by stomp-and-holler energy, earnest songwriting, and deeply human story telling. On Heavy Love, he explores aging,heartbreak, dissolved friendships,natural disasters, nonconformity, love as action, and existential uncertainty with immersive vulnerability and renewed clarity.

Seattle folk-pop duo Babes In Canyon returns to The Chameleon on Friday, September 25th on their Look Outside Tour with support from Anna Smyrk and Shelby Natasha! Doors at 7:00, tickets are $20 now or $25 the day of. This is a 21+ event.Babes In CanyonEloquently blending synth-folk, moody pop, club beats, and soaring vocal harmonies, Babes In Canyon crafts music that is eminently engaging and very much of the moment. Born of a spontaneous writing session during a winter storm blackout, the band wandered naturally into the land of heavy beats, lyrics with an element of story telling, and synth-folk instrumentation with a twist. Lush and astutely layered, what began as an exploration of the outer edges of Americana has evolved into a cohesive, enchanting artistic statement.With a spate of national tours, festivals, and live performances under their belt, songwriters Nathan and Sophia Hamer conjure up layered soundscapes, “looping keys, beats, percussion effortlessly in an electric, raucous live performance” (Atwood Magazine).Receiving praise from the likes of Under The Radar, Magnet, and Big Takeover, Babes In Canyon’s debut album “The New Loud” released in the fall of 2025. Genre-defying, expertly arranged, and profoundly catchy, Babes In Canyon stands ready to soundtrack your adventures - spontaneous or otherwise.Anna SmyrkAnna Smyrk is a powerful singer and songmaker from Naarm (Melbourne, Australia). Her anthemic indie songs pair vulnerable lyrics with explosive arrangements and undeniable hooks.Anna Smyrk's new album is all these things. Her first full length record, out now, dives deep into holding joy and pain together; a mix of comfort, sadness, and emotional release. Debuting #20 on the US specialty radio charts, #20 on the ARIA charts for Australia albums and getting multiple spins on BBC Radio, this is a release to watch. It showcases exceptional songwriting, driving indie-rock sounds, sweet alt-folk confessions, heart-wrenching lyrics and Anna's delicate yetpowerful vocals, described as “truly astonishing” by Rolling Stone.Shelby NatashaShelby Natasha is an alt-folk songwriter and Guzheng player from Seattle. Her music is an invitation into a world of RnB influenced Chinese-Folk Music. Inspired by her upbringing growing up between China and the PNW, her music draws greatly from the folk music of both cultures, reimagined in a modern production context.With ethereal vocals, Guzheng (the Chinese harp), and lofi production she creates a vibe that is both haunting and groovy. She has played in festivals such as Oregon Country Fair, NAMM, Any Patch of Grass, Belltown Bloom, Imagine Festival, Portland Folk Festival, Northwest Folklife and has played support slots for the artists East Forest, Simrit, and Yaima.

Great Lake Swimmers plays The Chameleon on Monday, November 2nd with Special Guests! Doors at 6:00, tickets are $22 now or $27 the day of. This is a 21+ event.Featuring a blend of acoustic instruments, rural soundscapes, and wistful vocals, Great Lake Swimmers are a critically acclaimed indie-folk group led by Tony Dekker. Based in Southern Ontario, the group emerged in the early 2000s with a succession of heavily atmospheric albums recorded in old silos and rural country churches. The music developed in that pastoral warmth, performed and recorded in acoustically resonant and historical locales with a revolving cast of personnel. They are renowned for homespun folk and lush, intimate Americana in their live shows.&nbsp;Their newest album, Caught Light, released in October 2025, is their most immediate and instinctive album to date. Recorded in just five days in Ontario’s Ganaraska Forest with producer Darcy Yates (Bahamas) and engineer Jimmy Bowskill (Blue Rodeo), it draws warmth from early ’70s folk-pop while embracing a new spontaneity and directness in Dekker’s songwriting.&nbsp;Great Lake Swimmers have been shortlisted for the prestigious Polaris Music Prize and nominated twice for Canada’s Juno Awards, with the CBC calling them “a national treasure.”&nbsp;“A stunning variety of tones and textures… nothing less than both cerebral and sublime” – American Songwriter, 4/5&nbsp;“It floats from country to folk to indie rock and back again… a sharp-toothed but achingly beautiful portrait of the natural world and the human condition.” – New Noise Magazine“Dekker’s preoccupation with the Canadian state of mind flourishes in his lyrics. Few songwriters are able to convey the country’s harsh beauty as well. …Canadian folk tradition personified in the 21st century” – Exclaim!

Portland songwriter Alela Diane plays The Chameleon on Wednesday, June 17th with support from Shannon Lay &amp; Karli Fairbanks! Tickets are $22 now or $27 the day of. This is a 21+ show.Alela DianeMore than a decade into one of contemporary folk’s most quietly extraordinary careers, Alela Diane returns with Who's Keeping Time? on May 22 via Fluff &amp; Gravy / Loose Music.&nbsp;The Portland songwriter’s seventh full-length came as the consequence of intuition, coincidence, and community. “I came to the end of a season last year,” Alela shares. “My daughters had grown a bit. I no longer had babies waking me in the middle of the night. I could hear myself think again.” More and more, those thoughts circled music.&nbsp;The ultimate spark for Alela’s return to her music community came in April of last year with the death of her close friend and mentor Michael Hurley — folk legend and indispensable presence in the Portland music scene. Tracked live in the attic of her 1892 Victorian home, Who’s Keeping Time? was produced by Sam Weber (Madison Cunningham, Anna Tivel) and brought to life with staples from the local music orbit, including members of the bands Lucius and Blind Pilot and fellow singer-songwriters Anna Tivel and AC Sapphire.&nbsp;Over the years, Alela's lustrous discography has gathered major critical acclaim from the likes of Pitchfork, NPR Music, The Guardian, and plenty more. UNCUT counted her work in their ambitious “50 best singer-songwriter albums” of all time roundup—a canon comprising John Lennon, Joni Mitchell, Joan Baez, Paul Simon—with Consequence echoing that significance, declaring, “Hers is a timeless sound, that of a wayfaring troubadour, which only seems to come a few times a generation.”Shannon LayShannon Lay’s music is shored by radical empathy. After 15 years of writing, recording and performing her singularly gentle songs in venues around the world, the self-taught singer-songwriter is most concerned with how her music may help people in emotional and spiritual need. In a world of persistent change, Lay’s goal is to have concentrations of love and energy in her work that double as a helping hand or a voice whispering “everything is going to be ok.” The singer’s abiding belief is that immense change also means invaluable transformation and permanent relief. Intention is her North Star.Hailed by publications such as Pitchfork, The Guardian, SPIN and Uncut magazine, Lay’s solo albums, including “Geist,” “August”, “Living Water,” and “All this life goin’ down” are noted for their thoughtful and entirely tender reflections on life’s big questions. Her seraphic voice has drawn comparisons to British folk icons Anne Briggs, Sandy Denny and Vashti Bunyan. Though an old soul, Lay aims to meet her listeners in the present. For her, creating a song, a recording or a live performance that is relatable and communal is of the utmost importance for we are constantly in flux and those unknowns, met with compassion, can be beautiful.&nbsp;

This is a 21+ event.Blake Braley:Listen on Spotify -&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/3b7KS4Nl1DZPeCKbM9oFG3">https://open.spotify.com/artist/3b7KS4Nl1DZPeCKbM9oFG3</a>Blake Braley is a soul singer songwriter, keyboardist, and organist based out of Spokane, WA. The music draws inspiration from soul and funk classics of the 60s and 70s with a modern twist. It’s simplistic, groove driven, melodic, feel good and sensitive.Growing up a three sport athlete, Blake did not pursue music until shortly after graduating high school in 2014 when he met his now guitar player and music partner, Tristan Hart Pierce. Blake fell in love with all things music and decided to drop out of college to pursue his new found passion as a musician. Since then, Blake has become a staple in the Spokane music scene as both an artist and instrumentalist. He has held a residency at local Spokane bar &amp; venue, ZOLA, for the last 7 years. Blake also frequently plays with PNW powerhouse, Allen Stone, as his fill in keyboard player and music director for Stone’s annual music festival, “Stone Family Field Trip”.Timeworm:Listen to Timeworm on Spotify -&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/2UsdaVRlaPj5D6rFxaTQBy">https://open.spotify.com/artist/2UsdaVRlaPj5D6rFxaTQBy</a>Timeworm is a Spokane-based confluence of musical space-time where indie rock, funk, pop, and psychedelia meet.

Gassen imparts sweet falsetto refrains over tight-pocket grooves, while lead guitarist Indy Heyer sails through his signature blend of scorching riffs and sweeping progressions. Bassist Cade Brown complements the duo with his funky fusion of rhythm and melody, rounded out by the prolific guitarist/keyboardist Drew Brereton. Timeworm channels the dynamic energy of the Inland Northwest rock scene in live performances while setting themselves apart by delivering catchy melodies in everything from soulful jams to distorted soundscapes.

Fox and Bones plays The Chameleon on Wednesday, June 3rd with Lucas Brookbank Brown and John Wayne Williams! Doors at 6:00, tickets are $20 GA. This is an all ages show.Fox and Bones:Listen on&nbsp; Spotify&nbsp;&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/3h4fLArFbSDysZMXzq3ik4">https://open.spotify.com/artist/3h4fLArFbSDysZMXzq3ik4</a>&nbsp;The only thing better than dating someone in your band is dating no one in your band. At least it sure sounds that way according to the recent output from Portland based Post-Yacht Rock outfit Fox and Bones, whose best work is coming directly following their split as a romantic duo. Or perhaps it was the addition of internationally acclaimed songwriter Greg Holden, who joined the project as a producer for their 2024 album “Long Time Honey” and upcoming fifth studio record “Are We Still Having Fun”, scheduled for release September of 2026.Regardless of what has codified the group, the musical result is undeniable. “Are We Still Having Fun” is an expansive step forward for the band, both lyrically and sonically, as the duo tackles technology, the modern political climate, anxiety, party culture and mental health under a musical tapestry that ranges from their familiar retro folk rock to modern Bleachers-esque indi-pop. &nbsp;It is a plunge into the deep end after years of swimming on the surface. When combined with Holden’s surgical production and lyrical composition, “Are We Still Having Fun” is primed to be Fox and Bones best record yet.&nbsp;And after ten years and 200,000 miles, it better be. Fox and Bones has toured tirelessly in their career, sharing stages with the likes of&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="no-pjax" href="spotify:artist:251UrhgNbMr15NLzQ2KyKq">Rayland Baxter</a>,&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="no-pjax" href="spotify:artist:3HR1xtIsUefdFnkI1XHgeA">The Dead South</a>,&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="no-pjax" href="spotify:artist:7aJSIsbI5wV8aFi2kkFfPi">ZZ Ward</a>,&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="no-pjax" href="spotify:artist:3AfRASYhvMeaTFaNtgyVWy">Fantastic</a> Cat,&nbsp; <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="no-pjax" href="spotify:artist:0lO2c86rQmrRJArBxgw0v8">ALO</a>&nbsp; and <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="no-pjax" href="https://glitterfoxband.com/">Glitterfox</a> among others and have been awarded first place at the 2023 Tucson Folk Festival songwriting contest and second place in the International Acoustic Music Awards along with earning the Best Folk/Americana Album of 2024 by the PNW Music Awards.

DC based group Oh He Dead blesses The Chameleon’s main stage on Thursday, May 10th with support from both Spokane’s sleepiest band, The Bed Heads, and legendary local soul artist Blake Braley! Doors at 7:00, tickets are $20 now or $25 the day of. This is a 21+ event.Oh He DeadOh He Dead&nbsp;is a study in contradictions. The D.C. band sounds as smooth and lux as leather, but there’s also a levity there, like a feather in flight. They’re not afraid to crack each other up with a crude joke or an impression, and their shows are described as one big hug. Dark and light, pain and joy, the band is best summed up by the origin of their name, which was coined by frontwoman CJ “Bowlin’” Johnson. When asked what happened to a cheating boy who was shot by his lover in a song of hers, she responded bluntly: “Oh, he dead.” And that’s how a legend is born.Rooted in Washington, D.C.’s rich tradition of soul, funk, and rock and built around Johnson’s commanding voice, the band has a shared love of groove-forward songwriting.&nbsp; Their sound balances polish with personality — tight musicianship paired with humor, heart, and a willingness to leave rough edges intact.That chemistry shines brightest onstage. Voted by Niva in 2023 as one of the best live acts in the US, years of touring have shaped&nbsp;Oh He Dead&nbsp;into putting on a formidable live show, earning them a deeply loyal following and opportunities to share stages with artists like Allen Stone, The Dip, Devon Gilfillian, Sir Woman, and Brandi Carlile. Their performances are joyful, spontaneous, and rooted in serious musicianship.Across three studio albums,&nbsp;Oh He Dead&nbsp;has built a catalog that embraces contrast without compromise, moving seamlessly between polished soul-pop and raw, emotionally unfiltered songwriting. Each release reveals a different facet of the band’s identity, united by Johnson’s fearless vocal presence and the group’s undeniable chemistry. Their fourth studio album, Vertigo, is out this fall.&nbsp; Stay tuned for their first single off of the album, Butterfly, which released on April 9th.

Lily Seabird makes her way to The Chameleon on Sunday, March 29th with support from Spokane songwriter The Holy Broke! Doors at 6:00, tickets are $15 now or $18 the day of. This is an all ages event.<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://linktr.ee/lilyseabird">Lily Seabird</a>Since 2023, Vermont songwriter Lily Seabird's life has been in perpetual motion, spending nearly half of that time on the road performing her own music and as a touring bassist with Greg Freeman, Lutalo, and Liz Cooper. While she thrives in transit, back home she is anchored by "Trash Mountain," a pink house surrounded by other artists and creatives situated on a decommissioned landfill site at the back of Burlington's Old North End. Here, Seabird has found belonging, friendship, and inspiration. It's a place that hosts artists, puts on shows, and has been passed along in her friend group for the better part of the decade. It's a symbol of transition and stability: something always evolving and growing but never losing its soul. It's only fitting that Seabird named her new album Trash Mountain, as it also contains its namesake's qualities. Over nine delicate but sturdy tracks of intimate folk rock, she pares her songwriting down to its most resonant essentials. It's an album of unwelcome exits and uncertain futures, but there's resiliency and hope at its core. It is Seabird's most confident and immediate effort to date.Where Seabird's previous records — 2024's Alas, and 2021's Beside Myself — were written over the course of a year, Trash Mountain practically poured out of Seabird: three months of songwriting in spring 2024, followed by four days of tracking with Kevin Copeland (Hannah Frances, Lightning Bug, Allegra Krieger) in his Southern Vermont studio in the summer. The condensed timeline allowed her to be present and process how differently her life looks now compared to a few years ago. She's coped with transforming relationships and grief, as well as music's awkward shift from a no-pressure, casual thing to do with friends to a career. Though working in environmental politics and community organizing brought her to Vermont from Pennsylvania, her disillusionment with systemic change led her to become a full-time musician. It's a transition that requires deep self-reflection. "Songwriting is meditation for me, "she says. "It's the way I work through things and make sense of the world. Being on tour so much I've been writing more just to understand what's happening around me."Lead single "Trash Mountain (1pm)" came about the day Seabird returned to Burlington after a month on tour, which included 15 shows in a week at SXSW. "Coming home is not always easy for me," she laughs. "Sometimes I feel like I am a way better version of myself when I'm in the chaos on the road. When I get home, I tend to spiral." Written on a walk outside her house, she channeled being overwhelmed into a perceptive look at coming down. Over woozy slide guitar and harmonica, Seabird muses, "How are we supposed to remember things / When everything is coming and going?" She doesn't let herself succumb to her anxieties, finding peace and gratitude for being "on the edge of town / where when I'm home I rest my head."While the grief that enveloped her last effort Alas,, which dealt with her best friend's suicide, still lingers, it's settled into healing and reflection on Trash Mountain. On "It was like you were coming to wake us back up," Seabird vividly paints a brief moment of seeing a person outside her house who bears an uncanny resemblance to her dearly deceased. Rather than mourning, she finds comfort and healing in the vision. "In the past, I used to come to songwriting when I was in crisis," admits Seabird. "Only recently have I come to songwriting when I am feeling other things beyond emergency and disruption."The album's arrangements are markedly sparse and intentional, a shift from the layered Alas, and Beside Myself, allowing Seabird's writing to soar and stand starkly centered. Only three songs feature her longtime touring band in guitarist Freeman, bassist Nina Cates (Robber Robber), and drummer Zack James (Dari Bay, Robber Robber). On the stunning "How far away," she's backed only by a piano played by Sam Atallah which makes for elegiac catharsis. "I've finally accepted that I'm a singer-songwriter," she says with a shrug. "Not everything has to be some big rock song." Seabird cites Elliott Smith, Neil Young, and Leonard Cohen as influences on Trash Mountain, and much like the latter, her evocative, emotionally potent lyrics find her looking for cracks in the darkness where light comes in, sometimes literally. Take the album's other title track, "Trash Mountain (1am)," where she sings of a nocturnal stroll: "We walk these streets we've come to know / memories live on in them after the snow / is all melted and gone / garbage covers the ground / and you pull a flower from the weeds and you spin me around." Sometimes all you need is a loved one to show you how to find beauty in the mess.Trash Mountain boasts a profound grace and openness. On the buoyant "Sweepstake," she cherishes memories with dear friends and optimistically looks towards the future, singing, "Where are we going is a question I save for halfway / Tonight the kingdom and tomorrow the milky way." The song captures the carefree feelings of making art with your best friends, nostalgically mining the boundless creativity and possibility of her early music life in Vermont. Life can change in an instant, but Seabird knows that there's power in grasping onto the purest moments of connection.Seabird's best friend would often joke that "the world is trash," a welcome dose of dark humor as the sentiment rings more true with each passing year. It's with this resilient spirit that Trash Mountain finds its optimistic, life-affirming center. It's an album that understands and accepts that highs and lows are inescapable and that the only way through is with small acts of kindness and other people. It's a tribute to home, chosen families, and taking life as it comes. "I don't have hope for the oppressive systems that abandon us, but I do have hope in people," says Seabird. "Sure, the world is really messed up, but that doesn't mean we can't make something beautiful out of the garbage. We might as well make something beautiful out of what we have got."Josh Terry November 23, 2024 Chicago, IL
