Jolie Holland and Kyp Malone

The Southern
January 26, 8:00pm
$12-$15

Yeah, yeah, Jolie Holland, folk-rock songwriter who splits the difference between California freak-folk and Texas Americana and was a founding member of the Be Good Tanyas. But the real draw here is Kyp Malone, the TV On The Radio guitarist who split off for the Rain Machine solo project, playing all the instruments himself on a killer set of songs which prove him a much more potent creative force than you’d have guessed based on the output from his other band.

Jolie Holland - Back Hand Blues
Jolie Holland - Black Stars
Jolie Holland - Crazy Dreams
Jolie Holland - I Wanna Die
Jolie Holland - Old Fashion Morphine
Jolie Holland - Springtime Can Kill You
