Wovenhand, 1939 Ensemble
9 pm., Wednesday January 30 | $14.
[BLACKENED ART FOLK] David Eugene Edwards, the man who records and performs as Wovenhand, was scheduled to play in town this past December, but had to cancel his tour after contracting pneumonia. An understandable step considering the physical and mental exhaustion that comes with being on the road, but also how much of himself Edwards puts into his music. The dark, knotty folk-blues of Wovenhand requires of the singer-songwriter his full body and spirit, poured out liberally into a fury of biblical and mythological imagery. Perform this deeply felt music with even one iota of irony and the whole house of cards would collapse.
