I was thrilled to be at the second stop of the Gillian Welch & David Rawlings “Woodland Tour”. An amazing show with two sets & three encores of new songs, old favorites, beautiful harmonizing and David Rawlings’ phenomenal guitar playing. Doesn’t get any better.

Jessie, Ben, Daisy: The Darkling and Alina are like a bickering old married couple.

Me: that means….

Ravka = the child suffering from their bickering and impending divorce, needs major therapy

Genya = the mutual friend who set them up, having a hard time deciding who to side with (at first)

David = their overworked accountant…he can only make so much magic happen

Nikolai = the dashing, shiny young new boyfriend, soon to be stepdad, who Alina, smirking, pulled up with at one of their proceedings

The rest of the Grisha = the assets and estates they’re fighting over

The Crows = Alina’s legal team, ready to win (Kaz = no time for your shit lawyer)

Mal = their pet do—….wait who?

Baghra = Baghra (yelling at them both)

They’re like one of those over the top rich married couples with their dramatic melancholias and flourish-y outfits and when they fight, they definitely overshare and make public spectacles and people look at each other like oh god, this again.

It’s a family drama, and mom and dad are taking some time off and just need couples therapy, that’s all. For now, daddy is sleeping in a hotel.

I love Hanif Abdurraqib’s writing, so I had to read this review. And I’m very excited to listen to Woodland.

It isn’t what it used to be.Nope.Things are changing,we don’t see the same activity happening anymore.The stories that are coming from those who were regulars in the park are turning to be scarier than the usual lost hiker,or bear attacks. These days far worse tales are coming out of rangers, those who are now quitting because our government and the military it seems are taking over several sections of the northeast of the park are being shutdown,fenced and watching towers being erected with big spot lights, and long and wide containers placed on a star shaped distribution.But why all this sudden madness. Regardless of your basic beliefs,you need to realize that with the advent of the internet and its social media platforms we are becoming more aware of the dangers and disappearances of campers,day hikers,and even park rangers. Occurrences that not so long ago were kept hidden by park officials,like the fact that they never keep records of missing persons and also the denial factor by rangers regarding attacks and killings by cryptids being blamed on grizzlies and other park predators,like wolves,coyotes,etc. If you do reports strange creatures,they will jump at you and dismiss them,giving you looks as if you were just one more lunatic,or they will tell you that they will investigate,when in fact they won’t do such a thing.Well,folks you do the math and figure who is doing all the killing and abducting ,these days the trust factor in park rangers and officials is wearing thin .So ,if you do decide to go and stay at their campgrounds probably nothing will happen but just keep an eye for the unusual and suspicious behavior of their staff. They are good and trustworthy staff but be aware of their response if you decide to report strange and unusual occurrences.Be safe , and aware of your surroundings at all times and stick together .Words by Sergio GuymanProust.

Welch & Rawlings - Woodland (2024) … a new structure upon an old foundation …

Gillian Welch & David Rawlings Live Show Review: 9/6, Cahn Auditorium, Evanston

David Rawlings & Gillian Welch

BY JORDAN MAINZER

In 2020, right before COVID shut down the country, a tornado outbreak tore through Nashville, killing 25, injuring hundreds, and leaving tens of thousands without electricity. Among the destruction was Woodland Sound Studios, the home studio of contemporary folk legends Gillian Welch and David Rawlings, which they spent the next years rebuilding, all while excavating treasure troves of unreleased tunes. But the first true phoenix to rise from the flames is Woodland (Acony), their latest studio album, which pays tribute not so much to a place that was and stands again, but the very act of creating in the face of loss. And the duo's performance of many of the album's songs last Friday at Cahn Auditorium, a pre-show for the inaugural Evanston Folk Festival, cemented the extent to which their creative power conquers all.

Welch

Welch and Rawlings dare you to focus away from absence. Though Woodland as an album benefits from various studio flourishes and guest players, its songs are strong in any capacity. During "Empty Trainload of Sky", the duo's tight vocal harmonies and Rawlings' bluesy picking didn't make you miss the studio version's propulsive percussion; instead, you were focused primarily on the way in which Welch turns a visual hallucination into a treatise on knowledge and doubt. "Was it spirit? Was it solid? Did I ditch that class in college?" she sings, simultaneously winking and full of wonder. Similarly, the poetry of "Hashtag" proved the studio version's French horns and strings to be borderline superfluous, the duo's Guy Clark-inspired musings garnering equal amounts laughs and existential crises. Even some songs themselves juxtapose elements that seem to be lacking, in a vacuum, with others that are more whole, the overall sum becoming something rather beautiful. On the wonderful "What We Had", Rawlings' cracking Neil Young falsetto contrasted the might of his guitars, as he and Welch harmonized and traded verses about impermanence: "What we had is broken, though we thought we'd never lose it." The rolling "The Day The Mississippi Died", which imagines this country's preeminent river drying up, sees a mix of tragedy and jubilation in the apocalypse, the best song of its kind since Joan Shelley's "The Fading".

Paul Kowert, Rawlings, & Welch

Of course, when listening to a Welch and Rawlings album, or witnessing one of their life-affirming live shows, you can't help but be wowed by the interplay of the two singers and players. If I hadn't written it down, I wouldn't have been able to tell you on which songs they were joined by upright bassist Paul Kowert; even though his playing was terrific, Welch and Rawlings draw your attention. Rawlings' prickly leads played off of Welch's high-register, rhythmic wincing on "The Bells and the Birds". In terms of stage presence, Welch is the silent and still warrior, Rawlings jerky, his expressions embedding within her strums on "Lawnman" and her mournful declarations on classic "Revelator". Perhaps the song that best encapsulated both their creative partnership and their strengthened appreciation for music-making was "Howdy Howdy". "Dry your eyes, don't you cry, ain't gonna rain no more," Welch sings to Rawlings', as if she's comforting him in the face of tragedy; the chorus of "You and me are always gonna be howdy howdy / You and me, always walk that lonesome valley" acts as a statement of purpose. Before playing the song on Friday, Welch was having trouble tuning her banjo, so Rawlings nursed it back to health so they could move on. On both Woodland and forever, Welch and Rawlings have each other's back.

A Walk in the Woods

Florida Woodland A Walk in the Woods In the heart of a Florida palmetto and oak woods, the sun shines through the dense canopy, dappling bright on dark shadows below. The air is thick and humid with the scent of damp earth. There is silence but a faint whisper of rustling leaves and the faint buzzing of distant insects. Bright green palmettos spread their fan-like fronds while the ancient live…
