Shana Cleveland Live Show Review: 4/27, Old Town School of Folk Music, Chicago
Tumblr media
BY JORDAN MAINZER
Thursday night at Old Town School of Folk Music, Shana Cleveland and her band brought Manzanita (Hardly Art) to life. As promised, Luke Bergman and Will Sprott’s respective pedal steel and synth playing provided a “thick eeriness.” They contrasted the tactility of Cleveland’s plucked guitars, whether Cleveland’s picking was by itself introducing a song or playing an interlude, or hovering atop the textural, foggy hum of the backing band. Drummer Geneva Harrison provided thumping fills on “Faces in the Firelight”, pounding might on “Walking Trough Morning Dew”, and subtle brushwork almost everywhere. Her shaking percussion on songs like “Mystic Mine” emulated the creepy naturalism that inspires so much of Manzanita. At the center and barely in front was Cleveland’s effortless voice, sandwiched in timbre among the instruments, telling the stories that contextualize the songs’ instrumental vignettes.
Tumblr media
Though the lines between La Luz and Cleveland’s solo work are, according to Cleveland herself, certainly blurring a bit, she has very much refined a solo artistic voice. A song such as Night of the Worm Moon’s country ballad “I’ll Never Know” was purportedly originally written for La Luz but “didn’t make sense” for the band; you can hear its siblings in the “Paint It Black” guitars of “Night of the Worm Moon” and Spaghetti Western aesthetic of “Face of the Sun”. Manzanita’s songs have doubled down on Cleveland’s pseudo cinematic vibe, from the whistling pedal steel of “Mystic Mine” to Richard Brautigan tribute “Mayonnaise”. When performing the latter, as she sang the line, “I’ll write a thousand songs before I’m done,” Cleveland mimicked a slit throat, the type of darkly humorous and strange mood that oozes from Manzanita just as much as the instruments themselves. If those thousand songs continue to reflect Cleveland’s ever-shifting perspectives and sense of self, we’re in for a treat, sonic and literary.

Audrey Hepburn on location the Belgian Congo for the production of The Nun's Story (1959) Photography by Leo Fuchs
"With the exception of Ingrid Bergman there was at that time no star as incandescent as Audrey. She was shy, coltish, and intelligent; she looked delicate, but there was a hint of iron in the jawline that signified a stubborn will. I thought she would be ideal; and so, now, did everyone else." —The Nun's Story director Fred Zinnemann on choosing Audrey for the role of Sister Luke (source)

NEW VIDEO for “Strange. Lines" directed by Andrew Pejack.
The first single off of Natural Internet is a song called “Strange Lines” I wrote about my friend Andrew Pejack who is no longer on the planet earth. It’s about connecting with people you love outside of space & time. 
For the video I repurposed old super 8 stop motion movies & short films Andrew made with his brothers & friends when he was young in the ‘70s & ‘80s. After he died I discovered a deep trove of amazing films he made & I frequently returned to them when I was thinking about him & wanted to hang out for a bit. 
Thanks to the Pejack family.
This song is me on acoustic guitar & clavichord, Kristian Garrard on drums, Luke Bergman on bass, & Shana Cleveland ripping away on electric guitar. Recorded & mixed by Johnny Goss & mastered by Timothy Stollenwerk

Shana Cleveland Interview: Changing All The Time
Tumblr media
Photo by Kristin Cofer
BY JORDAN MAINZER
When I speak to Shana Cleveland over the phone from Lawrence, MI, I can clearly hear birdsong in the background. It’s fitting, I tell her, given that we’re speaking about her terrific new record Manzanita (Hardly Art), an album deeply embedded in nature. “I’m always outside,” Cleveland says. Yet, listening to the record repeatedly over the past month and then speaking with Cleveland, it’s abundantly clear that nature is more than a character, far from a protagonist. It’s all-encompassing in its complexity, beautiful, harmful, and chaotic.
The La Luz member wrote Manzanita after relocating to rural California with her partner Will Sprott, a multi-instrumentalist who plays on the record. During its writing and recording, Cleveland was pregnant with their first child and ultimately gave birth. Then, at the beginning of 2022, she was diagnosed with and successfully treated for breast cancer. She began to see nature--the very thing she viewed as a balm--as much more random, a fetus living inside her, then a disease, all while she and her loved ones lived among, or within, the outside world. Even small patterns turned her perspectives upside down, watching bugs make their way inside her home in the spring. (“The wasps are crawling in our rooms,” she sings on Manzanita closer “Walking Through Morning Dew” atop appropriately buzzing instrumentation.) Thus, when Cleveland describes being pregnant and giving birth as a psychedelic experience, it’s not anything like a drug trip, but a radical reinvention of her worldview and self-perception.
Manzanita seems like a difficult album to perform, conceptually just as much as instrumentally. Tomorrow night at Old Town School of Folk Music, Cleveland headlines with a full band. (She opens for Destroyer at SPACE in Evanston on Saturday.) Alongside her will be Sprott on synths and keyboard, drummer Geneva Harrison, and Luke Bergman on pedal steel. She’ll rely on Sprott and Bergman to cover the sounds of not only the various instruments used on the record, like dulcimer, glockenspiel, and harpsichord, but for the sonic immersion required to  recall the tactility of nature and subsequently captivate an audience. Below, read our conversation, edited for length and clarity, where we talk about Manzanita, Cleveland’s live approach, and her ever-changing relationship with nature.
Since I Left You: Do you know how you’re going to adapt the Manzanita songs to a live set?
Shana Cleveland: I played a show for the record release at Bandcamp in Oakland. I had most of the musicians from the record there: upright bass, drums, pedal steel, synth. [It was] a really cool atmosphere. There’s something about the pedal steel and the synth together: A lot of times, they’re doing really similar parts or even the same part, and it creates a thick eeriness. I expect that will be present in this new lineup as well.
SILY: Do you generally find figuring out how you’re adapting songs live as artistically rewarding as writing and recording them in the first place?
SC: I do. It’s not my strong suit. I’m not great at giving directions. I have this idea in my head, and I never went to music school, and the only way I can describe things is through feelings, emotions, and overly poetic metaphors. It doesn’t work with everybody. I have to work with people that are really good. [laughs] It’s kind of how I try to approach recording, too. The people who are “good” are people who I know really well who get where I’m coming from already and know that I don’t know much theory, and [they] don’t need me to describe things in technical ways to get my point across.
SILY: That you’re giving musicians more abstract guidance, does that often lead to pleasant surprises or unexpected interpretations of what you’re telling them?
SC: It often does. I like that element of surprise. I feel like I’m never gonna be one of these musicians that’s like, “I recorded everything on this album!” That’s the secret ingredient to my music: working with people who are going to add their own spin.
Tumblr media
SILY: Manzanita, specifically, has very introspective songs set in specific times or places. How do you approach mentally or emotionally sharing that with a crowd of people?
SC: [Between my solo career] and La Luz, I feel like La Luz is a little less introspective, though those lines are blurring recently with the last La Luz record. I try to be as present as possible. I want to inhabit the same emotional spaces I was in when writing. It feels like cheating the audience if I don’t. It’s more satisfying to me. Sometimes, I’ll tear up when I’m playing. I’m a way more sensitive person now than I was 3-4 years ago. It feels good to be genuine and to get to those places. It’s not hard to get personal and intimate with an audience. For some reason, it feels like the most natural thing to do when performing live.
SILY: A lot of the sounds on the record are referential to or inspired by nature, as is the record in general. How do you approach that aspect live?
SC: I think [that’s] why I wanted to do the full band for every show. The atmosphere of the synths and the pedal steel is key to bringing an element of nature to a live show.
SILY: It seems like your relationship with nature is ever-changing because nature is such a vast, unknown entity. Has that relationship changed further since you wrote and recorded Manzanita?
SC: It’s changed really dramatically. When I wrote this record, I was in the headspace of just having given birth, an initial awakening to seeing myself being part of nature rather than in nature. In between then and now, I had cancer, and that was a huge step further in that direction of realizing, “I’m not in control. I’m changing all the time.” Some things are sort of under your control, but most things for me feel very out of control. I’ve had to come to a place of acceptance of that, which has been very liberating and terrifying.
SILY: You describe being pregnant and giving birth as a psychedelic experience. Do you still feel that way, and is that mindset something you’d use to describe other experiences you’ve had since then?
SC: Yeah. That was what excited me about pregnancy and birth. I’m not one of these girls that played with dolls and dreamed about having a baby myself. A lot of women do grow up seeing themselves as mothers. It wasn’t something I was ever really interested in. I think it’s because of the way motherhood is portrayed in our culture. I saw it as a sacrifice, and of course it is a sacrifice, but it’s [portrayed as] a lot of pastel colors, cute stuff, and sacrifice. What was really exciting for me when I became pregnant was how crazy it was. I felt totally out of control. The world was totally new, which was so exciting to me as an artist. I thought, “Why didn’t anyone tell me about this aspect of motherhood, where everything is so strange, cool, terrifying, and weird?” I really wanted to explore that side with the album.
SILY: I feel like the way you talk about nature is similar, the idea that it’s something we can’t control and has qualities as powerful as a forest fire and as fulfilling as its sheer beauty.
SC: You talk about “going for a walk in nature” as a peaceful, safe way to unwind. I was a poetry major at Columbia College in Chicago and was never interested in nature poetry when I was in school. I thought it was so boring, talking about trees and the wind, even though I loved nature. I never really examined why I wasn’t interested in nature poetry even though I loved being in nature. Certainly, since moving to the country, [I’ve become more interested,] seeing [things like] a rattlesnake kill a lizard before my eyes and then beheading that rattlesnake because I was pregnant and afraid it would come for my baby. Just the harshness of nature, the extreme darkness you’re confronted with in the country is similar to the brutality of birth.
SILY: Has your relationship with this record changed now that it’s out and people are listening to the songs and developing their own relationship with them?
SC: I’ve talked a lot about my feelings about the music. I haven’t gotten the chance to talk to others about it. I’d be totally interested.
SILY: Are you always writing new material, or do you have set times of your life when you write?
SC: I really like to group it all together, to get into a real place of concentration with one album idea. Usually, I kind of work like that. I’ll be writing this one album, concentrating on this one idea, spending a few months in that place. Some things, I do over a longer period of time. I have a record I’m working on that’s just guitar and vocals, and I don’t want to add anything to it, because I feel like the songs are asking for that. I’ve been working on it for a year, and it’s something to come back to when I’m not working on other projects.
SILY: Is there anything else next for you?
SC: We have a La Luz record pretty much done. We’re in the early stages of getting it finished, mastered and everything. It feels pretty fresh and exciting to me right now.
SILY: Anything you’ve been listening to, watching, or reading that’s caught your attention?
SC: Oh my god, I don’t want to talk about what I’ve been watching. I’ve been reading [Vladimir] Nabokov, which I come back to a lot. I pick a novel I’ve never read before, and it takes me a million years. His books are so dense and poetic, I just linger over one sentence for 10 minutes.
I’ve been listening to a lot of Mort Garson and synth music, which was something I wasn’t that interested in before the last couple years. I always come back to Stevie Wonder’s albums from the early 70′s. I was just putting a playlist together of my favorite nature songs, and I thought, “I really want to put some Stevie Wonder on here!” but I looked through my favorite records of his and realized there’s no nature at all. [laughs] I wonder if that’s because he’s blind, that he’s just writing about feelings and conversations, but not so much about nature. Not very visual. Makes sense.

i just wish i could just walk up to you in broad daylight and let everybody know // luke & blair
embora a vida de lucas nunca houvesse sido simples, esta sempre fora organizada, de uma forma ou de outra. para uma pessoa essencialmente prática, como gostava de pensar em si mesmo, a vida não tinha muito mistério: quando estava interessado em uma pessoa, por exemplo, era sempre direto, e não via razões para todos aqueles rodeios e joguinhos que muitos consideravam parte do envolvimento romântico. não tinha muito paciência para tudo isso, na verdade. ou, então, quando não estava feliz, ou até confortável, com uma situação, estava intrínseca em sua mente a perspectiva de que se afastar era o melhor remédio. para alguém que prezava tanto a simplicidade nos aspectos de sua vida a que referiam especialmente os relacionamentos, não existia o menor sentido naquele que mantinha com a cavendish há tempo suficiente para saber como a mecânica de ambos ocorria - e ignorar prontamente o seu bom senso quando os sentimentos constantes por ela o dominavam.
não existia, portanto, nenhuma explicação racional para o motivo de estar passando a noite com a mais nova, em seu apartamento, após toda uma semana atormentando seu melhor amigo e colega de banda - e terapeuta nas ocasionais necessidades - sobre o quanto simplesmente não aguentava mais a forma de blair lidar com a relação de ambos, e nem estava dando atenção para as mensagens que chegaram pelo contato dela desde a última vez em que se falaram. o que existia era a necessidade constante que lucas tinha dela, de ignorar todas os problemas em torno de seu relacionamento e aproveitar o momento com a mulher que habitava os seus pensamentos em uma intensidade que quase o deixava maluco, de tanto que não conseguia se livrar daquilo mesmo com os términos corriqueiros deles. términos estes que, por sinal, sequer sabia se poderia denominá-los dessa maneira, visto que luke não fazia a menor ideia de se poderiam se qualificar como um casal.
o problema em tudo aquilo ressurgia justamente com a fragilidade que os momentos divididos entre os dois possuíam. meras palavras poderiam ser suficientes para trazê-lo de volta a realidade, encarar tudo o que não gostaria, e relembrar exatamente qual era a razão do que acontecia entre eles não ser o que o coração adorava lhe enganar para acreditar que sim. a sentença que escutara da cavendish, portanto, se mostrava suficientemente eficaz em acordá-lo mais uma vez. lembrá-lo do quanto era detestável toda a situação em que era colocado simplesmente para manter uma imagem específica, o quanto se magoava toda vez que o assunto vinha à tona outra vez. “legal,” murmurou, não se esforçando muito para que o incômodo não se tornasse visível nos traços de seu rosto. “você não pode exatamente por qual razão dessa vez?” o questionamento escapou de seus lábios antes que pudesse conter a si mesmo. nada viria de bom em seguir aquele caminho, contudo, não conseguia simplesmente ignorar todo o significado no qual as palavras alheias estavam envoltas. “sinceramente, eu não sei que tipo de merda você parece tanto achar que vai rolar se te virem a dez metros de mim na rua.”
o bergman deveria saber que a noite acabaria daquela maneira, e conseguia até mesmo escutar a voz de seu melhor amigo em sua mente, mais uma vez afirmando que estivera avisado; lucas deveria aguardar por aquilo. porém, sempre ignorava completamente o seu bom senso quando blair entrava na história. talvez, uma declaração como aquela fosse exatamente o que precisava escutar para lembrar a si mesmo de não ser tão idiota. se afastou um pouco da mais nova, removando de seus ombros o braço que antes os contornava. “vai ser sempre a mesma coisa, não é?” a encarou ao perguntar, sabendo a resposta a seu questionamento antes mesmo que a mais nova se pronunciasse. não importava qual seria a resposta que ela o daria, afinal, porque no fim tudo se resumiria a uma mesma coisa: blair não estava disposta a levar o seu relacionamento para a luz do dia, em suas próprias palavras, e qualquer explicação que lhe desse naquele momento seria somente mais uma forma de enrolar tudo aquilo. estava envolvido com a cavendish por tempo suficiente para saber muito bem que não seria a última vez em que escutaria dela uma explicação batida. 
passou a mão pelo cabelo castanho, deixando que um suspiro escapasse em sequência. a maneira como sempre retornavam para aquele ponto era extremamente irritante, repetitiva e cansativa. extremamente cansativa. “às vezes eu não sei nem mesmo se você dá a mínima pra mim.” luke admitiu, sentando na beirada da cama, de costas para ela. uma parte sua, desesperada para escutá-la afirmar realmente possuir todos aqueles sentimentos, mantinha esperança mesmo sabendo que ela gostaria de mantê-los escondidos dos olhares de todos os outros, e obviamente sentisse vergonha dele. e, por essa esperança, era impossível se sentir algo menos que patético. não fazia a menor ideia do que acontecera para que a loira o capturasse daquela maneira, sem que existisse a menor esperança de abandonar com facilidade o amor que visivelmente sentia por ela, e estava ainda mais perdido a como poderia resolver a situação em que se encontrava. era uma merda. “isso é cansativo pra caralho. nós não vamos a lugar algum, seguimos sempre voltando pra essa merda de problema, e eu continuo correndo atrás de você de qualquer jeito depois. de verdade, qual é a razão de você ter tanta vergonha assim dos outros saberem que você tem algo comigo?”
