Willard Grant Conspiracy

The legendary Americana combo, tonight comprised of founder Robert Fisher on guitar and vocal and current cohort viola player David Michael Curry, kicked off their European tour in support of a new album; themed around the Mojave desert where Fisher resides. A feeling of space was prevalent throughout as Curry’s slow bowing and inventive style resonated over Fisher’s soft strumming and soothing voice that, combined, enveloped the senses like a warm blanket. The whole set felt like the soundtrack to a lonesome soul preparing himself to meet his ominous destiny with pride and dignity. A very special and enriching night.
