Doors at 7:00 pm | Music starts at 8:00 pm. 21+ Formed in 2004, Massachusetts post-rockers Caspian original lineup consisted of members Philip Jamieson (guitars, keyboards), Calvin Joss (guitar), Chris Friedrich (bass), Joe Vickers (drums) and since 2007 Erin Burke-Moran (guitar). Caspian released their first EP, You Are the Conductor, in late 2005 to widespread acclaim, and was followed by the group's first full-length endeavor, The Four Trees, in 2007. Their second LP, the critically acclaimed Tertia, saw the light of day in the latter half of 2009, and was followed by a pair of European tours, a North American tour, and a pair of shows in China. In 2011, the band headed back into the studio to begin work on their third long-player. The resulting Waking Season was produced by Matt Bayles and received glowing praise from both the fans and the press, with Spin magazine going so far as to call it "the Best Post-Rock Album of the Year." The following three years proved to be tumultuous for the group, with the 2013 death of founding bassist Chris Friedrich casting a shadow over their recent success, but Caspian's tenacity ultimately won out, and in 2015 they released their long-awaited fourth studio outing Dust & Disquiet. After a string of brief hiatus' and world tours spanning 4 continents, Caspian released the Will Yip co-produced "On Circles" in 2020, one month before the advent of the Covid-19 pandemic. -- How does one cope with the pang of desire? It’s the tender, sometimes volatile question that confronts Genevieve Beaudoin on her debut full-length as Dead Gowns. A deft lyricist with a sweeping range of poetic color and texture, Beaudoin paints her story in dark romantics, presenting a woman in the high summer of adulthood deciphering life’s capacity to fulfill desires or let them go painfully unmet. These cravings – to be touched, to be known, to have just one more encounter with someone lost to time – are a lacuna Beaudoin prods at insistently throughout the album’s twelve songs. Though never named outright, Beaudoin’s home in Maine – and its ragged, granite-strewn coastline – is an evocative character inhabiting the album, a force even more implacable than Beaudoin’s emotions. Also present is the acute awareness of time passing. Pulled from an Eileen Miles poem, the album’s title, It’s Summer, I Love You, and I’m Surrounded by Snow, evokes a feeling of disorientation and the inevitability of change. External and internal forces charge Beaudoin, her inner world shifting much like the dizzying change of the seasons. “We get swept up in the blizzard, and then we are set down in the hot salty haze of August,” she says, remembering the Maine winters of her childhood. By the album’s end, Beaudoin holds her longing in the balance, no longer overcome but embodied. And if you listen carefully – these songs will pick you up and put you down again, transformed, raw, and satiated.
