John Heart Jackie @ Habitat House

In February, we had the pleasure of hosting John, Jennie, and Peter of John Heart Jackie while the Portland folk outfit was in town opening for The Tree Ring's record release show. They spent an afternoon playing guitars and frisbee at Golden Hill Park and ended up writing a song they debuted that very night at the San Diego Women's Club. You can hear a recent recording of said track below, and see John Heart Jackie perform live at Habitat House this Thursday supported by Tree Ring member John Titterington's project The Roofbeam Carpenters. There might even be some cameos from other Tree Ring members...

Noah and the Whale @ SD Woman's Club

Noah and the Whale caught our attention a couple years back with their sophomore release, Peaceful the World Lays Me Down, and the film that they released to accompany the album. Here's the trailer below, which features the song, "Blue Skies."

One thing that Noah and the Whale can never be accused of is having released the same album twice.  When trying to describe what this band sounds like, it is impossible to pinpoint an answer, seeing as with every album release everything about their music changes pretty dramatically.  The First Days of Spring is slow and melancholic, Peaceful the World Lays Me Down is happy with a child-like intensity, and their newest release, Last Night On Earth, is their most uplifting album to date, probably helped out by the synth they've thrown into the instrumentation to accompany the familiar acoustic guitar and violins. This new album feels like a solid blend between the first two, and a mixture of all three can be witnessed tomorrow night when they play the San Diego Woman's Club, located in Banker's Hill. Here's a live performance of "5 Years Time" to get you excited.
