Blake/e/e/e are touring in support of there upcoming full length debut Border Radio (FreeFolk Records). They are very free spirited and almost impossible to classify, thus making them intriguing and interesting to listen to. Some would say it’s folk, but only as much as the Pacific is “some water”.

Blake/e/e/e was born from the ashes of Franklin Delano. After many years, 3 full length albums and hundreds of shows around the globe, Franklin Delano came to its end, having reached the limits of the project as it was. Goodbye Franklin Delano.

Everything is wet in a folky mood, but it is no longer an American folk, it is rather an ancient type of folk, a campfire solitary strumming, there where you can watch the stars at night, and feel the scare of the darkness, generated by the wind blowing in the woods, like trees talking to your ears.

I dunno where that leaves us but I’m on board. It’s a helluva night for a school night but should be worth it. Check out the links above to everyone’s MySpace (esp Blake/e/e/e and Shenandoah Davis) you’ll probably agree.

Here’s a track from Shenondoah Davis
