July 9: Dead Gowns (Brunswick, ME) & Eliza Edens (Philadelphia, PA)
DEAD GOWNS:
Dead Gowns is a project from Brunswick, Maine. pulling on folk, garage, and soft rock tendencies, it's music in the raw & tender.
“The raw and tender indie-folk songs of Genevieve Beaudoin seem eerily elevated played as a four-piece, such as Lucinda Williams fronting Fleet Foxes. Anyone treated to the band’s live set knows that she’s the real deal.” Bangor Daily News, “100 Essential Maine albums of the decade.”
“Dead Gowns play the music we sing along to while we’re driving and tear up to once we’re parked.” WURI
“Dead Gowns is a once-in-a-generation act. Subtle yet powerful, achingly beautiful songs played earnestly. Rooted in musical traditions, yet unique and forward moving, they have been making waves in Maine's music scene for the past two years.” Rad Plaid
"As a quartet, Dead Gowns provides a suitably earthy base from which Beaudoin’s transcendent singing and songwriting soar." The Bollard
"Fresh off the release of a new EP, this indie-folk-rock quartet is subtle and good. Have an ear out for our favorite track, “Kansas” — Beaudoin’s vocals shine the most here, and the melancholic guitar work pleasantly builds up across the five-minute runtime." Portland Phoenix

ELIZA EDENS:
“How do I make the days go by / With a fever dream but a mellow mind?”
It’s a simple question with a complicated answer that’s at the root of most of the songs on Eliza Edens’ debut record ‘Time Away From Time’. For the Massachusetts-raised, alt-folk artist who more recently calls Philadelphia home, the answer is to create her music in a world distinctly separate from the constraints and speed of modern living. Inspired by ideas of geologic time, the challenges of early adulthood, and the grandeur of nature, Edens brings her vision to life with adventurous fingerpicking, heart-tugging melodies, and poetic lyrics – inviting listeners to inhabit the songs as they wish. Recorded with support from Club Passim’s renowned Iguana Fund, ‘Time Away From Time’ carves out fresh sonic territory in the realm of traditional songwriting and marks a moment of growth in the life of a budding songwriter.
