SUMMARY:JAKE KLAR & CLOUDBELLY - Double Album Release Show
DESCRIPTION:$18 advanced\, $22 day of show General Admission (standing + 
 limited seating) - Doors open at 7PM https://www.jakeklar.com/ JAKE KLAR
  & BLUE RANGER/ YEARS GO THROUGH ME NOW Years Go Through Me Now\, a new 
 collaborative album by singer-songwriter Jake Klar and folk-rock trio Bl
 ue Ranger\, is Klar’s first full-length since his 2017 debut\, Until the
  Wild Fire Becomes Paradise — “No one ever slapped my hand for being too
  fast\,” he smiles — with the interceding years seeing a steady stream o
 f singles and EPs (including a pair of beautifully bare EPs\, Witness an
 d Masquerade). In its nine songs and two interludes\, I hear the motions
  of weathered hands\, the gentle rush of country roads\, the laughter of
  old friends and the silence of rumination — the quilt of dreams and doi
 ngs we call a life. GoldFlakePaint describes Klar’s music as “An urgent 
 meeting of folk\, roots and good old rock and roll that carries with it 
 an unbreakable spirit.” A fixture in New England’s folk scene\, Klar has
  toured nationally\, played festivals including Otis Mountain Get Down a
 nd FreshGrass\, and supported the likes of Cut Worms\, Antwaun Stanley\,
  and Al Olender. Klar has spent the past decade working as a letterpress
  printer\, art store clerk\, bartender\, carpenter\, illustrator\, graph
 ic designer\, musician (touring DIY on his own and as a member of Prewn 
 and Hannah Mohan)\, live sound engineer\, merch guy\, and custodian. His
  songwriting\, from the misty-eyed title track to the down-home boogie-w
 oogie of “Driving Home Through the Country” (here recast murmurously fro
 m an earlier electric version)\, dwells in a rustic realm borne by his c
 rackling voice and hearthside acoustic guitar. “That Forever” is a haunt
 ed\, fragmented road-movie that emerges from its dust like a lost Baseme
 nt Tapes recording\, while the last-call piano ballad “Louisa” wouldn’t 
 sound amiss on After The Gold Rush. The collaboration proved intuitive a
 nd ideal\; painterly masters of a bittersweet Americana\, the trio lent 
 Klar’s songs their most mature and poignant accompaniment yet. Matt Grif
 fin’s hazy drums seem to emerge from memory or wishful thinking\, while 
 brothers Josh and Evan Marré contribute a range of instruments\, includi
 ng bass\, pedal steel\, synthesizers\, and sublime slide guitar. It’s al
 l brotherly love\; in one of the record’s most transcendent moments\, th
 e coda to the gorgeous “New Paltz”\, the whole band joins Klar in ripple
 d choruses of “Tell it like it is Days go by”. After just a week of reco
 rding\, the band and Klar mixed the record together. As the great lathe 
 of late capitalism grinds independent music into smoking filings\, artis
 ts must ask ourselves — what is this for? What work is it mine and only 
 mine to make? What’s worth preserving for the unimaginable future? For K
 lar and Blue Ranger\, the answer is clear: a celebration of the real thr
 ough which they and all of us drift\, what Klar calls “the day’s constan
 t mix of memories and the present.” In Years Go Through Me Now\, he and 
 Blue Ranger offer a paean to life as we live it. — Miles Hewitt https://
 www.cloudbellytheband.com/ Cloudbelly is a Western Massachusetts-based i
 ndie-folk band known for their emotionally charged songwriting and expan
 sive\, chameleonic sound. Centered around Corey Laitman’s poetic lyrics 
 and haunting vocals\, the band draws from alt-folk\, art-rock\, and ambi
 ent textures to create music that feels nostalgic\, cinematic\, and raw.
  Their 2024 album i know i know i know earned national acclaim—named one
  of the Top Albums of the Year by The Boston Globe a nd nominated for Al
 bum of the Year at the Boston Music Awards. Most recently\, the band per
 formed for a sold-out crowd at The Sinclair alongside Tiny Desk Contest 
 winner’s Cure For Paranoia as a part of the NPR Tiny Desk On The Road to
 ur. With a lineup featuring guitarist Sam Perry\, drummer/producer Nate 
 Mondschein\, and guitarist/vocalist Ciarra Fragale\, Cloudbelly delivers
  live performances that are both emotionally immersive and disarmingly p
 layful. Their next album\, Throwing The Game\, is due in late 2026. The 
 first single “Oh\, Antarctica!” was released on August 21st\, 2026. Cont
