  • Matthew Carlson

    Featured

    After nearly 30 years of playing shows, making records and writing songs, it’s fair to call Matthew Carlson a veteran. From his current work in the Stick Arounds and Harborcoat, to his previous stints in The Pantones and Third Uncle, Carlson has spent a lifetime writing songs filled with vivid characters, detailed worlds, and personal touches.

    Carlson is a born storyteller in person, and in his songs. His solo acoustic shows are comprised of emotional, funny, and moving stories about the songs and his own life that support his songs and the hidden lives and places behind them. To see Matty C (as his friends call him) play solo is to see, feel, and hear these songs in a new, and perhaps more profound way.

    Harmony, bombast, and distortion are removed from even the most boisterous of numbers, and a bare, more vulnerable version of the songs appear. The tunes take on new life as they are stripped to only the most essential of ingredients.

  • Liederkranz Live: Aaron LaCombe

    Featured

    “The truth is the shortcut to everything”

     Listening to Aaron’s songs, you won’t hear a lot of effort to sound like anyone else or to play by any particular set of rules.

    Sure, it’s only natural that dashes of heroes like Lyle Lovett or Guy Clark sneak into the stew, but what you’ll mostly hear are stories being told from the perspective of man who has been there and wants to share what he learned from them.

    Laundry hanging on the line, or the death of a dear friend in the passenger seat of his truck; if it’s in the song, it probably happened.

     Aaron can be found driving across the United States and beyond with his rescue pals Oscar and Zeke.  He Plays theaters, listening rooms, festivals and back yards... the kind of places where all the seats face the stage and folks are there to hear the songs and the stories behind them.
