At the end of December 2013; Christmas looming and the New Year just around the corner; Phosphorescent played a four-night stand at the Music Hall Of Williamsburg in Brooklyn. and for four-nights running. blew the roof off the place. Matthew Houck. fronting his seven-piece band. plus an auxiliary string trio deployed throughout the set. played for more than 10 hours. all recorded and eventually edited down to the 19 tracks that appear on the new three-album set. 'Phosphorescent Live At The Music Hall'. out Friday 20th February 2014 on Dead Oceans and Inertia.
Inspired by live albums such as Bob Dylan's 'Hard Rain'. Houck envisioned an album that. rather than play like a greatest hits collection. would present songs from throughout his catalog in new ways. representative of how the songs have grown and transformed over the years in the live setting. Phosphorescent were coming to the end of almost a year of hard touring behind 2013's 'Muchacho' before the four Brooklyn Music Hall shows. (one of which was a solo performance by Houck). and the ability of Houck's songs to morph and expand is showcased here through these revelatory performances.
'Live At the Music Hall' spans nearly 10 years and four Phosphorescent albums total. including 2005's 'Aw Come Aw Wry'. 2007's Dead Oceans debut 'Pride'. breakout 2010 album 'Here's To Taking It Easy'. and ultimately. 2013's transformative 'Muchacho'. The Phosphorescent live line-up here features Ricky Ray Jackson on guitar and pedal steel. pianist Scott Stapleton. drummer Christopher Marine. bassist Rustine Bragaw. percussionist David Torch and organ / keyboards player Jo Schornikow.
