LIVE AT LUCKY BARN: The Weather Station, ‘Like Sisters’

Aug 2, 2016

LIVE AT LUCKY BARN: The Weather Station, 'Like Sisters'

We've teamed up with the good people at Pickathon to present a season's worth of archival — and incredible — videos from the Pacific Northwest festival's Lucky Barn Series.

The final episode from the Spring season of the Lucky Barn Series finds the Weather Station working through the haunting "Like Sisters" and pushing the boundaries of folk music in all the right ways. As the musical moniker of Canadian singer/songwriter Tamara Lindeman, the Weather Station has been warmly embraced by critics and listeners, alike. And this tune evidences why, in lyrics like "When she moved out, sometimes he’d call me, I never should have answered. Sometimes you give, you’re giving all you have, and sometimes you’re the taker. Like the whole world went and slipped my way, and yet I didn’t want nothing so unequal. Like unearned praise, like someone I don’t recognise was looking back from my own eyes." More, please.

Pickathon comes back to the Pendarvis Farm in Happy Valley, Oregon, from August 5-7, 2016. Recent additions to the festival lineup include Mac DeMarco, King Sunny Ade, Thao & the Get Down Stay Down, Joseph, Ry X, Cory Henry, Promised Land Sound, Town Mountain, Myke Bogan, Blossom, Caleb Klauder & Reeb Willms, Open Mike Eagle, and Chanti Darling. Tickets and the full lineup are available now. The live stream will be available here on the BGS beginning Friday.
