He left for Nashville, traded a music business degree for an English one, played in a series of college bands, and spent most of a decade building toward a debut. Ben de la Cour’s visceral songwriting weaves evocative stories of desperate characters with his signature “Americanoir” sound, shining an empathetic, raw, and at times bleak light on the human condition. Raised in Brooklyn, he lived in London, Cuba, and across the United States before settling in the American South over a decade and a half ago, drawing inspiration from writers and musicians alike—Townes Van Zandt, Jimi Hendrix, Nick Cave, Nina Simone, Leonard Cohen, James Baldwin, and Carson McCullers among them. His gothic folk songs create fully realized worlds populated by down-and-out characters trying to make it through.$5DetailsWed Oct 21st at 8PMGrace Givertz + Jacob Perez live streamBoston-based indie-folk artist Grace Givertz captivates audiences by blending earworm melodies with heartfelt storytelling. As a multi-instrumentalist, she infuses her music with a diverse array of sounds, weaving folk, Americana, and indie rock into a tapestry uniquely her own. Drawing inspiration from her personal journey living with chronic illness, Givertz’s music resonates with raw emotion and introspection. Her experiences infuse her songs with depth and authenticity, inviting listeners to explore themes of resilience and vulnerability. Jacob Perez is a songwriter living in Cincinnati, OH. Via his American realist storytelling & conversational tenor, Perez takes up the underdog story in the vein of Nebraska era-Springsteen or Owen Ashworth (Casiotone for the Painfully Alone/Advance Base). In doing so, Perez follows a long lineage of American folk music without being bound to the genre. Whether it’s a raucous alt-country song or a softly sung acoustic number, Perez tells vital stories that make the listener feel that maybe they are less alone than they thought.$5Details
