PHOSPHORESCENT – ” Los Angeles and Nothing was Stolen ” Live At The Music Hall
Posted: February 5, 2015 in MUSICTags: Dead Oceans Records, Live At The Music Hall, Phosphorescent
Last December, between Christmas and New Year’s Day, Phosphorescent played a four-night stand at the Music Hall Of Williamsburg in Brooklyn. Those shows were recorded and culled into a 19-song, 3xLP set live album called Live At The Music Hall, which Matthew Houck’s band will release this February. In a press release, Houck said the project was inspired by records like Bob Dylan’s Hard Rain, the intention being less of a greatest hits collection than an illuminating batch of reinterpretations showing how Phosphorescent’s songs have evolved over the years. check out a sprawling, powerful version of “Los Angeles” from 2010′s “Here’s To Taking It Easy”
