Laura Gibson has a new web-based home: lauragibsonmusic.com.
She has this to report:
This is a good season in my life! I am finishing up a new record, restoring an old trailer as a studio space, and have a few other projects up my sleeves.
Here I am recording in my room!
All dates are with The Ghost of A Saber Tooth Tiger (Sean Lennon and Charlotte Kemp Muhl)
Réplica | Teaser Video from Rauelsson on Vimeo.
PREORDER ON LP OR CD FROM THE HUSHSHOP.
Created for the vinyl medium, Replica encompasses two long works, held together by plaintive cobwebs that bridge each finely tuned piece of introspective folk and fragile, whispered vocals into a remarkable whole.
Spanish-born, Portland OR-based Raúl Pastor Medall, otherwise known as Rauelsson, began working with Peter Broderick at a distance, sending work back and forth through the mail with one another before convening in person to hone and create their quietly engaging collaboration.

Portland’s Nick Jaina creates a unique blend of bluesy to boozy folk-rock. He’s joined by some fellow Northwestern musicians in the KEXP studio for this exclusive live performance that features some tracks from his LP “A Bird in the Opera House.” – W. Myers

Kele Goodwin – “Hymns” Sampler Mix
“Though he’s a man of many stories, Kele Goodwin’s offering to the public resides in his beautiful folk music—though “beautiful” doesn’t quite seem to capture the essence of his creations. Listening to Goodwin’s “Hymns,” one can almost hear Alaska’s ferocious alpine peaks, rugged with such exquisite allure, upon which he spent many days of his youth.” –The Vanguard
“Although the focus is on Goodwin’s lightly picked guitar and Drake-like voice, contributions from singers Alela Diane and Laura Gibson lend to its gorgeously haunted sound.” – Willamette Week
“Goodwin set out to record this album with Sean Ogilvie, of the Portland band Musée Méchanique, four years ago. “But,” says Goodwin, “a bunch of life happened.” Read about Kele’s life and music in this Oregonian article

What better opportunity to present this entire concert watchable in a YouTube playlist from the vault to give you an idea of the dynamism of this band:

And if that wasn’t enough, the band is graciously offering up a free remix EP with a twist: each distinguished remixer was only given one ‘stem’ (instrument track) from the recording to work with. They also never heard the finished studio version. It’s a sonic journey.
