Lauryn Peacock Album Release Feat. Whoa Dakota & Sophie and the Broken Things
The East Room
Thu, Dec 9
7:00pm
FULL DESCRIPTION
There’s a line at the end of “On This Ground,” a song near the middle of Lauryn Peacock’s new LP I Know a Place, that sums up an important truth about her work: “The drama of existence is art.” Across her folk- and rock-schooled catalog, Peacock has fine-tuned her ability to communicate complex experiences and emotional states in ways that words alone can’t quite convey. Peacock doesn’t break these things down into expressions as simple as, say, the three-chord opuses of 1960s psych-rockers The Troggs, but her literate lyricism draws you in as if by magic. The album is Peacock’s third new release this year, following her full-length Theology and two-track Quarantine Love EP. Like the previous two, I Know a Place features other outstanding Nashville musicians like drummer Megan Coleman and bassist Jack Lawrence. She’ll celebrate the release Thursday night at The East Room with help from Whoa Dakota, aka outstanding songsmith Jessica Ott (bringing out a full band in service of some new country-leaning songs), and rocking country outfit Sophie and the Broken Things, who’ll give you a preview of their debut album Delusions of Grandeur ahead of its release in February. 7 p.m. at The East Room, 2412 Gallatin Ave. STEPHEN TRAGESER
