JUST ANNOUNCED: Damien Jurado with special guest St. Yuma is #liveatdulinghall on 9.29! Tickets on sale Friday at 10 AM ✨
“Play on, there’s no such thing as better days,” Damien Jurado sings on “Roger,” the sweeping wash of a song that opens Reggae Film Star, his 18th full length album and second release from Jurado’s own Maraqopa Records label. But as he enters his 25th year as a recording artist, it’s clear these are, at the least, very good days for Jurado on the creative front. In these 12 songs, which evoke half-recalled dreams and overheard conversations, the cosmic rushes headlong into the autobiographical and specific moments on the clock fade from past to future to scenes set only in the eternal now. Playing out like a backlot documentary filmed on the location of an unnamed TV or film set—maybe a sitcom taping, or perhaps it’s a low budget science fiction B-movie, or could it be a talk show?—the album is populated by performers awaiting call times, camera operators praying for their shot, and studio audiences rapt with anticipation.
TONIGHT: The Writers' Round with Bob Ray and Scott Albert Johnson! The show starts at 7:30 PM, doors open at 6:30. You can purchase tickets at the door 🌟 Come out and support local artists tonight!
