Ryley Walker: The Lillywhite Sessions
Read More
|
Chicago experimentalist Ryley Walker headlined the 7th Street Entry on October 4, touring to spread the word that he’s re-imagined Dave Matthews Band’s lost 2001 album The Lillywhite Sessions. The record will arrive November 16 on Dead Oceans.
Opening up for Walker was fellow Chicagoan long-standing musical project Health&Beauty (aka Brian Sulpizio). If you ever worked in a department store, you may know that the make-up section is referred to as Health & Beauty, or “HABA” (health and beauty aid) for short. Anyway, the Sulpizio would also double as Walker’s guitarist, along with bassist Andrew Young and drummer Ryan Jewell, for his main set… billed with imagination as Ryley Walker and Band.
If you count how many songs the band play, often stealing from other musicians (which Walker would be the first to confess), it’s not very much. Perhaps only eight songs were played, but for Walker and Band, they extend each song in long jams… followed by long stories about Walker’s youth. For example, how rad it was to work at his favorite job at Culver’s. Well, it was his favorite job, that is, until he “discovered the dark arts of Built to Spill”.
