Opening Act: Le Ren

Le Ren’s close-to-the-bone, heartbreak folk songs seem, at first, to tap into a shared musical memory. A melody swirls forward and you’re just sure it’s known to the back of your mind; was it in a movie you saw, some classic mid-60s set piece? Maybe it’s something you heard as a kid, in the backseat of your mom’s Cutlass, or the shotgun seat of your own. But before you can zero in through the fog, your heart is torn apart by her voice — rich, direct and mellifluous — steering you through these slowburn tunes about real-life loss.

Lauren Spear, the artist behind Le Ren, created a physical quilt to mirror the assemblage of stories that comprise her album Leftovers: a coming-of-age collage that collects over four years of past experiences and finds their present meaning. “When I think of leftovers, I think of things that have been cast aside,” she says. “When they’re picked back up or remembered, they can be repurposed... Leftovers came to mean a collection of feelings and moments of the past that still remain relevant to my present.”
