SUMMARY:The Decemberists
DESCRIPTION:For over 20 years\, The Decemberists have been one of the most original\, daring\, and thrilling American rock bands. Founded in the year 2000\, The Decemberists’ distinctive brand of hyper-literate folk-rock set them apart from the start with the release of their debut EP 5 Songs in 2001. Since then\, the band has released nine full-length albums that are unbound by genre and highly ambitious\, ranging from Americana-leaning storytelling epics to elements of 70’s prog and hard rock. \nNow the enduring indie band is back with their first new music in six years\, “Burial Ground.” Already a fan-favorite after being debuted live last year\, their latest single takes the overt fatalism of 2018’s I’ll Be Your Girl and infuses it with the jangle-pop of The Dentists and dreamy harmonies of The Beach Boys (performed with an assist from The Shins’ James Mercer). “‘Burial Ground’ is in that time-honored popsong tradition\, a paean to hanging out in graveyards\,” says songwriter Colin Meloy. “The melody hook came to me in a dream and I hummed it into my phone on waking. Most dream-songs are bad; this was the exception.” \nThe Decemberists will be on tour with more new music to come!

SUMMARY:Tim Easton
DESCRIPTION:A mainstay of American roots music for more than 20 years\, Tim Easton crafts songs that blur the lines between folk\, blues\, and workingman’s rock & roll. It’s an honest sound influenced not only by the flat-pickers and folksingers who came before him\, but also the arc of Easton’s own experience. Born within a stone’s throw of the Niagara River\, he spent his childhood in upstate New York and midwestern Ohio\, raised on the sounds of trailblazers like Doc Watson and Woody Guthrie. Following in his heroes’ footsteps\, he grew into a modern-day troubadour\, busking his way around Europe for the better part of a decade before heading back home to America. Although he eventually settled in East Nashville\, his touring schedule continued to take him across much of the world\, from barroom gigs in rural Alaska to festival appearances in Russia. Years before Americana music received its own category at the Grammy Awards\, Tim Easton helped pioneer the genre’s mix of classic inspiration and contemporary interpretation\, writing songs that nodded to his influences while still acknowledging the sounds of the modern world. Tim comes to The Ark with his new album\, “North American Songwriter.” This double LP–the first two volumes in a series–features acoustic recordings of favorite songs from his vast catalog of original material.
