Yowza, we've got a very sweet night of soft (but dipping into grunge territory at times!), folk-inflected indie rock coming your way, with a double-header: Lily Seabird from Vermont, and NOLA's Thomas Dollbaum. Topped off with local outlaws Paradise Motel Lounge and the illustrious Mallory Hawk.

LILY SEABIRD
Since 2023, Lily Seabird’s life has been in perpetual motion, spending nearly half of that time on the road performing her own music and as a touring bassist. While she thrives in transit, back home she is anchored by “Trash Mountain,” a pink house surrounded by other artists situated on a decommissioned landfill site at the back of Burlington’s Old North End. Here, Seabird has found belonging, friendship, and inspiration. It’s a place that hosts artists, puts on shows, and has been passed along in her friend group for the better part of the decade. It’s a symbol of transition and stability: something always evolving and growing but never losing its soul. It's only fitting that Seabird named her new album Trash Mountain, as it also contains its namesake's qualities. Over nine delicate but sturdy tracks of intimate folk rock, she pares her songwriting down to its most resonant essentials. It’s an album of unwelcome exits and uncertain futures, but there’s resiliency and hope at its core.
THOMAS DOLLBAUM
Dollbaum’s debut Wellswood was released in 2022 via Fat Possum/Big Legal Mess, drawing comparisons of Justin Vernon and Damien Jurardo (Popmatters) to Richard Buckner and Arthur Russell (AllMusic) for his “compelling lyricism drawing as much from the dark caricatures of Harry Crews and Denis Johnson as Springsteen’s realism” (Beats Per Minute).
PARADISE MOTEL LOUNGE
Formed in the happy days, the salad days as they say, of 2019, Paradise Motel Lounge mark the exact sonic center point between George Jones and Stephen Malkmus. Writing songs that are perfectly at home amongst honky tonk cheers, or that can net the PML crew a small fortune if they were to be paid by the tear, the band is comfortable in any space on the Cook-Out lined streets of North Carolina.
MALLORY HAWK
mallory hawk is a songwriter + guitarist who hasn’t had time to finish her website. she made a killer album that’s almost done xoxo
