Gothic Theatre
Dave Alvin & The Guilty Men
Dave Alvin, winner of a 2001 Grammy for his last release Public Domain, continues his exploration of what he calls “electric and acoustic folk music” with this live album, Out in California.
Known for the dual nature of his live shows- the rocking power of his touring band, the Guilty Men and his more acoustic-oriented, traditional folk songs—the full breadth of Alvin’s artistry comes through in 13 tracks culled from recent Californian performances, where this great American songwriter revisits and reinterprets songs from every era of his career.
The perfect combination of musician and material, West Of The West (to be released by Yep Roc Records on May 30th) is Dave Alvin’s tribute to the songs and songwriters of California. It’s the fourth-generation Californian’s latest excursion into the sounds and history of his home state, continuing the high standard he set with King of California and Blackjack David.
