    Lea Thomas • Adelyn Strei • Adeline Hotel Oct 17

    7:30 Doors 8:00 Music $15.00 suggested donation

       

    Lea Thomas’ album “Cosmos Forever” unfurls in a moment of exquisitely gentle suggestion: “Let’s go for a walk/Don’t talk.” Hers is a voice that is at peace with itself, that is trusting of its own ability to convey the truths of her experience and her personal philosophy, and to express her enduring love for the natural world. These truths, inspired by growing up on Maui, are embroidered with elegantly simple imagery. Fragments and fine details of a myriad different landscapes–a spray of leaves, a winding river, a bracing trade wind–seem to weave themselves together into a blanket of sound that is warm and wholly enveloping. Lushness without drama, honesty without sharpness–rare and fine qualities that suffuse every song. Like a friendly hand resting on the shoulder, this music encourages the listener to become more at ease with the unanswered questions they might contain within themselves. It suggests that to forgive oneself for being uncertain, to allow oneself to experience pure and simple goodness, is to feel more at home in the world, and to better feel the embrace of the all-encompassing universe itself.

     

    In the tender, surrealist world that Dan Knishkowy has developed under the name Adeline Hotel, stories have been told through sprawling psych-rock epics (2020’s Solid Love), stark solo guitar performances (2021’s Good Timing), piano-led orchestral song cycles (2021’s The Cherries Are Speaking), and lush, jazzy compositions that felt like a genre unto themselves (2023’s Hot Fruit). Inspired by indie lifers and fellow world-builders like Jim O’Rourke and Phil Elverum, the Ruination Records co-founder has rewritten the rule book with each new project, inviting listeners to join as he discovers new channels for his singular voice. By now the sound of Adeline Hotel is equally identifiable through Knishkowy’s dextrous fingerpicking—the aural equivalent of tracing your fingers through cool sand at sunrise—as his low, whispered vocals and autumnal melodies.

    Elijah Barlow • Captain Tallen • Sachi Oct 18

    7:30 Doors 8:00 Music $15.00 suggested donation

     

    Elijah Berlow is a Chicago-based songwriter and multi-instrumentalist folk musician.  Originating from pastoral roots in Vineyard Haven, Massachusetts, Berlow is a playful story-teller with a narrative style grounded in the traditions of Americana music. As a vocalist, he emanates a sincere warmth through his thoughtful phrasing; and his diligent fingerpicking guitar-style leads steadily through the pulsing catharsis of any song. Berlow creates music that is complex, soulful and in conversation with a rich rhythmic history. His music can currently be found on all streaming platforms including the newly self-released EP “Put Out Fires”(2022).

    Captain Tallen & the Benevolent Entities are tender storytellers, weaving lyrics that sing of nostalgia and yearning with delicate and thoughtful instrumentation. They are based in Brooklyn and helm a pirate ship called The Mirage.

    Sachi is a multi-instrumentalist hailing from Las Vegas, NV. A longtime student of classical music, Sachi grew up playing the violin and piano, and eventually earned her degree in Percussion Performance at the Bienen School of Music at Northwestern University. Since moving to Brooklyn in 2022, Sachi has turned her attention to writing and singing songs of her own.

    Hayley Rose Harrington • Trail Papa • Horse Radish • Lily Too Oct 19

    7:30 Door 8:00 Music $15 suggested donation

     

    After breaking off her engagement—losing her band and apartment in the process – Hayley Rose Harrington spent the last two years rebuilding her life in small increments and songs. Her debut album Starting Over is a deeply intimate record about healing, learning, and acceptance. Harrington draws on traditional folk songwriting to explore themes of queer identity, love, and heartbreak, writing songs that feel simultaneously familiar and new. 
     
    Trail Papa don’t look like your dad. Sometimes their songs are quite sad, sometimes they’re happy, sometimes hand-clappy, and playing them all makes us glad. Trail Papa don’t look like a man; some might loosely call them a band. Hear what you like? Come for a hike! We’ll turn this slog to a dance! 
     
    Horse Radish is a musical project spearheaded by singer-songwriter Melanie Berkowitz blending melodic folk with alt-country sounds. Horse Radish released their debut record Snake Charmer in 2021 and will be recording their second album this fall. The band Dylan Sandler (keys, songwriter, vocals), Eric Sturm (bass, vocals), Dylan Awalt-Conley (drums), and Ray Henninger (pedal steel, mandolin, guitar) will be playing songs from the upcoming second record.
     
    Lily Too  is the project of Lily Goldberg, a NYC native who found her sound at Western Massachusetts song circles. Acoustic, atmospheric, intimate and ever-changing, her music is a blossoming offer of wonder and whimsy inspired by natural and preternatural worlds alike. She’s performed at MASS MoCA, Pete’s Candy Store, Shrine, Brooklyn Music Kitchen, and The Dreamaway Lounge among other venues, and she’s currently at work on her debut EP.

    John Sims Trio • Grant Richards Sextet, Oct 20

    7:30 $15.00 suggested donation

     

    John Sims is a highly accomplished and versatile bass player whose rich musical journey has taken him from his early professional days in Arizona to a prominent position in the vibrant jazz scenes of Chicago and New York. After seven years immersed in Chicago’s thriving scene, John became a top-call bassist before venturing to New York to pursue additional musical growth and challenge. He has performed with many renowned musicians including Victor Goines, Steve Cardenas, Makaya McCraven, Bria Skonberg, Rich Perry, E.J. Strickland, Marquis Hill, Bruce Barth, and Adam Birnbaum. Currently residing in Brooklyn’s Prospect Lefferts Gardens neighborhood, John has quickly become one of the most in-demand bassists in the New York jazz scene, showcasing his versatility across various styles on both upright and electric bass.

    Two esteemed jazz luminaries and four emerging NYC improvisers converge in the Grant Richards Sextet, striving to push the boundaries of this tradiAonal small group format with ambiAous composiAons and unbridled improvisaAons. Assembled by pianist Grant Richards, the core members include Italian alto saxophonist Daniele Germani, Chilean bassist Simón Willson, and Canadian drummer Adam Arruda, a quartet brimming with creaAve momentum on the heels of their 2022 release, “One and Done”. With the addiAon of tenor saxophonist Dayna Stephens (Kenny Barron, Ambrose Akinmusire) and trumpeter ScoS Wendholt (Vanguard Jazz Orchestra, Vincent Herring) to the front line, the group produces a powerful, cohesive sound that takes full advantage of each individual’s unique v

    Hank Heaven • Grace Carney • Sammy Mellman

    7:30 Doors 8:00 Music $15.00 suggested donation
     
    Grace Carney is a Brooklyn-based songwriter whose music weaves imagistic lyrical vignettes with hypnotic guitar work. They believe in songs as containers for the ineffable forces permeating human experience. Their process and music embody the emergent properties of a song – when sound becomes something more; a spell, a fantasy, a premonition, or a prayer. Grace is honored to be playing their debut show at The Owl, a space and community that has fostered their songwriting, and they are privileged to be joined by Sammy Mellman on piano.
     
    Sammy Mellman is a New Jersey-based songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and high school music teacher. Obsessed with strange chord progressions and melancholy hooks, with a loop pedal and a knack for arranging in 4-part barbershop harmony, he came to a uniquely focused and resonant sound as a solo trombone cover artist throughout the 2010s, before beginning to explore songwriting more earnestly leading up to 2020. Taking most directly after some Great American Songbook harmonic sensibilities crossed with more contemporary bedroom-based projects, he composes scenic, wistful, and diary-like tunes that invite the listener to both escape and appreciate the natural world and present moment. His third release, the short and mostly self-recorded Mellowman, comes out on November 1st, carrying many of those earliest song ideas that have had time to grow into fully fleshed-out arrangements.

    Alec Spiegelman • Lyle De Vitry Oct 27

    7:30 Door 8:00 Music $15 suggested donation

     

     

    Much like life itself, the music of Lyle de Vitry comes in cycles. With his intricate, ambient fingerpicking guitar style and suede-soft baritone voice, de Vitry mesmerizes audiences into meditative serenity. Immersed in rich and nuanced harmonic composition, listeners are gently drawn into the here and now. Effortlessly moving between unity and dissonance, voice and instrumentation, rhythm and melody, de Vitry seamlessly integrates the comfort of folk music with the spine-shivering emotional release and intentionality of classical compositions. In so doing, he manages to create a sound as dynamic and honest as the ocean’s eternally flowing tides or the planet’s ever-changing seasons.  His debut album, Door Within a Dream, is set to be released in August 2024.

    Charles Spearin (of Broken Social Scene), Stephen Becker (album release) WEDNESDAY Oct 30

    7:30 Door 8:00 Show $15.00 admission

     

    Stephen Becker is a songwriter who hides in the cracks between serene and strange, loud and soft, simple and complex, writing songs about love, life, happiness, unhappiness, and more. When not playing with bands like Rubblebucket, Katie Von Schleicher and Strawberry Runners, Steve can be found front and center in his own project, drawing inspiration from art song auteurs and guitar-playing luminaries like Elliot Smith, Joni Mitchell, and Luke Temple. Simultaneously sensitive, articulate, and confident, his music weaves indie-rock sensibilities with a jazz player’s touch and a compositional mind, resulting in a craft that is excitingly unique and warmly familiar. At this show, Steve will be celebrating the release of his second LP of songs, Middle Child Syndrome, out October 25h on Record Euphoria.

    7:30 Door 8:00 Show $15 suggested donation

     

     

    No Sailor is American singer-songwriter Kieran Garvey and his five-piece folk band. Their fun and classical approach to folk has been described as “heartwarming and authentic” and “destined for the stages of Newport Folk Festival.” Their captivating live show has earned them comparisons to The Head And The Heart, and Gregory Alan Isakov. Garvey’s earnest songwriting, paired with a semi-classical band, has a profound way of playing on your heart strings. From the exuberance of ‘Rock, Paper, Scissors,’ to the melancholic strings on ‘Wedding Cake,’ their songs arc from euphoric folk rock to confessional orchestral ballads.

    Astghik Martirosyan • Timo Vollbrecht Nov 3

    7:30 Doors 8:00 Music $15.00 suggested donation

    Astghik Martirosyan, an Armenian-born, New York City-based vocalist, composer, and pianist, stands at the intersection of diverse musical realms, drawing inspiration from classical, traditional Armenian folk music, jazz and contemporary improvisation.  The album features Vardan Ovsepian on piano/co-producer, Darek Oles on bass, Christian Euman on drums,  Daniel Rotem on tenor sax and Maksim Velichkin on cello.  From her early beginnings performing with the Armenian State Jazz Orchestra at just 15 years old to her recent collaborations and performances with Dave Holland, Magos Herrera, Ari Hoenig and Vardan Ovsepian Astghik’s musical journey has been one of continual exploration. Exposing different chambers of her artistry Astghik collaborated with Ted Reichman infusing infusing electronic textures into classic Mingus works and served as a composer, performer and a musical director for “We Wait for Your Return” – a two-part live performance commissioned by Northeastern University in Boston which combined photography, storytelling, and live music. 

    Brooklyn-based Timo Vollbrecht is a shapeshifting saxophonist-composer and Brown University jazz professor. The NYC Jazz Record attests he is “blessed with fluidity and intricate twists.” Together with multi-Grammy-nominated vocalist Theo Bleckmann, sound-magician Luke Marantz, and drummer extraordinaire Jason Burger, this new band meets at the intersection of avant-jazz, indie, post-rock, and song. Their music weaves together delicate textures and creates a pastoral quartet sound that merges “acoustic resonance with otherworldy electronic sonorities of orchestral width” (Occhi Magazine). Get ready for an evening of all new music.

    Sean Kiely Album Release with special guest Jeff Taylor Nov 7

    7:30 Doors 8:00 Music $15.00 suggested donation

     
    Sean Kiely is a Jersey City-based songwriter. His new record “Postcards of the Reckoning” is out 11/1/24. Tris McCall writes: “He brings us echoes, song after song, of dangerous things past. His music is gentle but stubbornly unusual — evocative of folk traditions, but more often redolent of the waterfront at night, the strangeness of the Hudson County post-industrial landscape, than of the woods.” He’ll mark the release at The Owl with collaborators Jared Engel (bass), Bill Campbell (drums), Chris Parker (guitar), & Bobby Hawk (fiddle).

    Jeff Taylor  released his debut LP, ‘A Deeper Kind’ in Spring 2022. The album features drummer Matt Johnson (Jeff Buckley, Rufus Wainwright, St. Vincent) and bassist Jesske Hume (Conor Oberst, Margaret Glaspy), and was produced by John Agnello (Sonic Youth, Kurt Vile, Waxahatchee).  Together in early 2024, Taylor and Seattle producer Geoff Stanfield dropped the debut album from their new project, Farmer. Multiple tracks on ‘The Color That Suits You’ feature guest vocals from Rock and Roll HOF electee Dave Matthews, including a music video for ‘Honey,’ also featuring the South African-born songwriter. The group are currently recording a full-length followup, due out in Spring 2025.

    Alta Quartet • Michael Bates' Acrobat Dec 22

    7:30 Door 8:00 Show $12 suggested donation

        

    Michael Bates’ Acrobat and the ALTA String Quartet present radically different explorations of two dissident composers: Dmitri Shostakovich and Witold Lutoslawski.  
     
    Acrobat are:Marty Ehrlich-clarinet • Fung Chern Hwei-violin • Sara Schoenbeck-bassoon • Michael Bates-bass •Michael Sarin-drums. The quintet, led by bassist/composer Michael Bates, features five fearless voices exploring one of music’s most mysterious personalities, Dmitri Shostakovich.   With literal themes by Shostakovich or themes composed with his spirit, “Acrobat” is full of music that is playful yet dark and swinging.  And while Shostakovich is clearly being channeled, the voices of these five fantastic improvisers will be on full display: Beautiful and vicious, elegant and dissonant, and humor laced with serene sarcasm.

    Alta are: Gabryel Smith-violin  • Rachel Hauser-violin •Emily Bookwalter-viola  • Ken Hashimoto-cello, a collaboration of four committed and curious musicians based in Brooklyn, NY who perform and premiere a wide range of music for string quartet. Founded in 2021, the group has been praised for their “fiery” and “faithful” performances (New York City Jazz Record) of contemporary repertoire, and regularly performs music both old and new. On this evening, The ALTA String Quartet performs Shostakovich and Prokofiev.

    Born to Evangelical missionaries,  Hudson Freeman started writing songs upon a radical break at the age of thirteen when his family suddenly moved from the suburbs of Dallas to The Kingdom of Eswatini.

    7:30 Doors 8:00 Music $15.00 suggested donation

     

     

    Izzy Oram Brown is a Brooklyn based guitarist and songwriter who released her debut record Mess in 2022. Created with a host of collaborators in various spaces around New York, Mess finds Oram Brown drawing on her work as a guitar player and her love of the folk song tradition to create her first project as a songwriter. She pairs introspective lyrics and winding melodies with layered guitars, synthesizers, and percussion to create an ethereal and moving body of work. Grounded in precise songwriting and embellished with experimental production, Mess is Oram Brown stepping out from a supporting role and sharing an assured album of naked honesty.

     
     
    Kitba, the eponymous musical project of singer-songwriter and harpist Rebecca Kitba Bryson El-Saleh, is the culmination of a lifetime of musical and artistic development. Based in Brooklyn, El-Saleh makes exhilarating, deeply personal music that explores the nuances of interiority, self-acceptance, communication, mental health, and love. Kitba’s debut self-titled album, produced by El-Saleh and Zubin Hensler, was released in July 2023 via Ruination Record Co.
     

    Eric Gabriel is an NYC born and raised songwriter, pianist, and producer.  Once generously described as somewhere between Bootsy and Willie, Eric’s music is occasionally groovy, at times introspective, and always pulling from a wide array of folk, soul, and 70s rock as well as his experience playing with his band Melt for the past seven years.  This show will be entirely unreleased music off his upcoming debut solo album.  For this performance, Eric will be joined by Julian Cubillos, Jason Burger, Jacob Drab, and Asher Kurtz.

    Gemma Laurence is a Brooklyn-based indie folk singer-songwriter from the coast of Maine. Categorizing herself as “Sapphic folk,” Laurence has been named an “up-and-comer” in the queer music scene by NPR Music and starred on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Having grown up on the coast of Maine and the hills of Oxfordshire, Laurence’s time on both sides of the Atlantic influenced her unique sound: a fusion of foot-stomping Americana with a hint of English folk. Crafting a lush soundscape of rich acoustic textures, dreamy harmonies, and found sounds, Laurence’s timeless tracks call her listeners home to the people and places left behind for new beginnings. Her album Lavender is out now on Better Company Records.

    Jess Kerber is a songwriter who hails from just outside New Orleans, LA. Picking up the guitar at age 12, she quickly learned the instrument on an atypical path. Heavily inspired by the likes of Joni Mitchell and Susan Tedeschi, she primarily gravitated towards alternate tunings, leading her playing to take on a color unlike most other musicians. Her voice grew to attain a deep purple heaviness, which enchanted her early recordings, all backed by the tasteful intricacy of her guitar playing, melodic and captivating enough to stand on its own.  Before long, she found herself at Boston’s Berklee College of Music as the 2018 Berklee Lollapalooza full scholarship recipient. The environment challenged her tastes and songwriting style, leading her to take on a more subdued and lyric-driven approach, influenced by the indie-folk of artists like Andy Shauf and Adrianne Lenker.  Having embarked on two self-booked European tours and releasing her debut record (May 2022), Jess has since relocated to Nashville, TN – where she lives with her two cats, Tahini and Archie.

    Will Orchard has released four EPs and LPs as, both independently and with Brooklyn-based label, Better Company Records. He has been praised by PopNews, Glide Magazine, The Wild Honey Pie, Atwood, and more as a unique emerging voice in folk music. Now based in Nashville, he is currently back in his natural environment of self-production, with an in progress-LP slated to release in 2025.

    Talia Schlanger is a songwriter, musician and broadcaster whose intimate and explosive debut album “Grace for the Going” was named one of Exclaim!’s Most Anticipated Canadian Albums of 2024. With a warm, inviting sound that sits somewhere between folk, jazz and rock, NPR Music writes “Schlanger is an empathetic ear for someone’s wounded heart; her voice sure in its love, gently cradling ours.” She sings about compassion, hope, survival, mental health, love gone bad and sometimes extinct species of frogs. As former host of the NPR-distributed radio show World Cafe and frequent guest host on CBC’s Q with Tom Power, Schlanger has also interviewed hundreds of artists. She began her professional performance career at age 14 and her various theatre credits including performing in the original Canadian cast of Queen’s We Will Rock You and the first US tour of Green Day’s American Idiot. Her new live EP, coming out Oct 25 via Latent Recordings, is produced by Cowboy Junkies’ Mike Timmins.

    Lily Talmers is a Michigan-born, Brooklyn based songwriter. Her music hopes to elicit deep sorrow and joy, both, and wonders about their connection.

    Matt Bachmann (b. 1988, Chicago) is a musician/social worker whose sound is a marriage of long form repetitive instrumental music and songwriting. The combination feels like a soundtrack to a film that has yet to have been shot– it’s playful and dramatic, building upon a sonic pallet that’s part breathy ballad, part DIY chamber music, and part 80’s Japanese synthwork. Bachmann has released three records on Owen Ashworth’s (Advance Base) tight knit Chicago based label, Orindal Records, including Dream Logic which was released in 2021.

    Kitba, the eponymous musical project of singer-songwriter and harpist Rebecca Kitba Bryson El-Saleh, is the culmination of a lifetime of musical and artistic development. Based in Brooklyn, El-Saleh makes exhilarating, deeply personal music that explores the nuances of interiority, self-acceptance, communication, mental health, and love. Kitba’s debut self-titled album, produced by El-Saleh and Zubin Hensler, was released in July 2023 via Ruination Record Co.

    Peaceful Faces Jan 16

    7:30 Doors 8:00 Music $15.00 suggested donation

    Peaceful Faces is a Brooklyn band that combines finger-picked guitar with vulnerable lyrics, sneaky chord progressions and warm brass arrangements. Tree Palmedo writes the songs and a crew of crack NYC instrumentalists helps make them better. Their most recent album, Sifting Through The Goo, Reaching For The Candlelight, was released in 2023, and their follow-up is due in 2025.
