BE Godfrey - Walter's, Houston TX - February 9, 2013


[Houston TX] I remained discomfited by the exceedingly genteel crowd, but this band comforted me to a certain extent. Their members pretty much explained the people in the audience who had been of visual interest. They were a spare sort of semi-dark folk, a genre I love.  Great fiddle, minimalist keyboard, heavy drums, and some echoing backup. The lead singer (of course, one of the mean cold hipsters who had shunned me outside, with his little moustache) was poetic and convincing. It turns out the lead singer was in a dark folk band notorious in Houston: listenlisten – this is him quieted down. I really liked them.
