Carson McHone Tour Dates and Upcoming Concerts

Still Life (Merge Records/Loose Music), Carson McHone’s third album, quivers like a tightrope, with songs about existing within tension and surviving beyond the breaking point. These are stories of sabotage, confusion, and surrender. "The songs on Still Life probe the permeable boundaries between desolation and exhilaration, isolation and community, failure and hope, loss and love" —No Depression Still Life invites us to gasp at our own reflection, while acknowledging the unsettling beauty in this breath. Written in fleeting moments between busy tour schedules in McHone’s home state of Texas, the album was recorded in relative seclusion in southern Ontario in the fall of 2020 with Canadian multi instrumentalist, songwriter, and producer, Daniel Romano. The phrasing and tones recall the late 60’s and early 70’s, another era of transition and innovation (think John Cale, The Kinks, Richard and Linda Thompson). "(Still Life) captures a sense of liberation, of somehow being removed from all that has just gone before. This freedom is reflected in the music as Carson McHone steps confidently away from her more established country roots and arrives at pace with a richer, more complete sound." - God Is In The TV / Simon Godley McHone has done extensive tours in support of Still Life across the US, Canada, Europe, and the UK, as well as joining forces with Romano as a member of his band, The Outfit, for subsequent albums and tours with the group.
