Show Notes
“There ain’t no honky tonks in Philadelphia,” laments Jessica Pyrdsa AKA Datura. The latest single from the Lockhart-based artist’s upcoming album, Saint Cecilia, takes a pivot from her piano-driven, jazz-meets-art-pop sound for this equally cinematic, blues-leaden country hall slow dance that feels like a waltz in all but time signature.
Here, her skills as a composer are on full display, as her own vocals play like an off-stage narrator, letting woebegone, country-blues strings dance around the dusty floor behind heavy crimson curtains, reeling in homesickness and reveling in the memory of times spent in those old, sticky-floor honky tonks.
Saint Cecilia comes out this Friday, September 26th. Her album release show is tomorrow, September 25th at C-Boy’s Heart & Soul joined by plenty of special guests.
