The Decibel Tolls

Rachel Grimes, formerly of folklore-evoking Louisville chamber post rock collective Rachel’s (whose founder Jason Noble is the reason for the Shellac-headlining benefit show announced this week), celebrates the release of her new album Book of Leaves tomorrow night (Thursday) at the 21C. The show will be the first in 21C’s Hear + Now multimedia A/V series. Seeing as it’s been a while since Rachel or Rachel’s have surfaced, and this new record is her first solo outing, you shouldn’t in good conscience miss this show.

Backseat Sandbar writes: “The show will also feature works by Daniel Gilliam, Lou Moseson and Sara Maclean.  The Series will feature newly composed works by regional creators and performed by regional creators for all of us to experience.  I’ve even heard that there will be a baby grand piano placed in the center of the room with seating in a theatre in the round style.  21c always pulls out all the stops and this series looks to be very exciting.”

Book of Leaves mixes modern composition with field recordings, and remains one of the more intriguing releases that has graced these ears. The album is available on vinyl and digital release via hometown heroes Karate Body. Grip it here.
