caroline is an 8-piece post-rock, experimental, noise folk band from London and they released a new single for what I can only assume is a new album. every song they release is so incredibly layered and hits chords and timbre combinations that shake my soul. seeing them live in 2023 was one of my two life-altering experiences watching live music.
Really good folk post rock album. Very cathartic album for zoning out and contemplating. Pretty entrancing live, saw them at the Rockwell theater in Somerville, where they were standing in a circle facing each other playing through their songs. Their tiny desk is worth a watch as well.
BEST COAST NO COAST (technically wrong because we have THE LARGEST BODY OF FRESH WATER IN THE WORLD). We're stereotyped as being nice; our signature dishes are all things that make you feel more full than a grain silo at the end of the harvest season; the great lakes are beautiful; supper clubs; 4 seasons superiority; relatively mild natural disasters; endless list of artists, musicians, generally successful and prolific people from the midwest; natural wonders galore (driftless region, boundary waters, apostle islands, etc.); eccentric culture and lifestyle; the list goes on and on. I love being from Wisconsin, and I will never feel bad about it.
