    Samantha Crain

    with: Ben Weaver

    SamanthaCrain-palace

    Anais Nin said, “Each contact with a human being is so rare, so precious, one should preserve it.” That suggestion was the muse impelling the conception of Samantha Crain’s second LP, You (Understood). Each song on this album rests on a juncture with a person, a real person, and it recounts a particular episode of life with that person. The scenes and the people are not especially unusual or stirring but the idea that the precise installment will never, in all of time, happen again was enough to interest Crain. She is taking a microscope to the simplest of human interactions and feelings, turning them over in her hands, looking at them from all angles, measuring them on all sides, and taking them apart, realizing they really are exceptional but only in the smallest ways.

    Howlin Rain

    with: D. Charles Speer & The Helix and The Jones

    HR-PALACE

    “Bay Area-based Howlin Rain is an unguardedly passionate modern classic, a band that would have been a headliner at the Fillmore East and Winterland in another era that reassembles rock’s primary elements in ways that make it roil with new life on their latest album, The Russian Wilds.” – RELIX //

    “A psychedelic cocktail of Crosby, Stills and Nash, the Faces, the Damned and author Raymond Carver” – Rolling Stone Magazine //

    New album The Russian Wilds out Valentine’s Day, 2012
    from American Recordings. Produced by Rick Rubin.
