The Fiver Trois - Only in the Longing
It's been far too long since I had a chance to see Simone Schmidt in performance, a gap in time that's brought a lot of new songs. In the case of the new album Cleaning House, some of those new songs have been kicking around for a while, waiting for the right moment to be finished off and sent out formally into the world. That gap in time also brought a new backing unit, with bassist Jeremy Costello joined by frequent collaborator Nathan Doucet on percussion, as well as newcomer Dani Crowther on pedal steel. Together, the group leaned into the new album's tunes, meaning there wasn't much room to revisit the back catalogue, and no room for anything older than some selections from 2021's Atlantic School of Spontaneous Composition album. But that focus lead to plenty amazing moments, with the band moving from rollicking psychedelic explorations to a quieter mid-show acoustic mini-set and back.
