SUMMARY:Shovels & Rope
LOCATION:Guild Theatre\, 949 El Camino Real\, Menlo Park\, CA 94025
DESCRIPTION:KEXP Presents Shovels & Rope with Nolan Taylor Shovels and Rope
  GENRE: Folk\, Country Rock Spotify | Apple Music | Youtube | Website For 
 those who are new here we’ve spent the last decade or so bouncing around
  in the ‘Americana’ realm quite a bit. Getting branded into that world
  was admittedly a bit of a head scratcher for us as we’ve always identif
 ied as more of a rock band (though we do think of ourselves as folk songwr
 iters and yarn spinners\, and we do harmonize well together) but the peopl
 e were paying attention and we were building a fan base so we kind of felt
  like “who were we to tell them who we weren’t?” But when you go all
  the way to Europe and are standing on a stage in front of a few hundred S
 candinavians who are dressed in head to toe denim and cowboy hats\, we can
 ’t help but feel like we’re about to confuse some people. We will ofte
 n find ourselves playing an outdoor\, ‘free in the park’ type of conce
 rt series where a Male and Female with 2 guitars and beautiful harmonies w
 ill be booked as the opener\, and then we’ll take the stage and proceed 
 to be a little louder and maybe a little more brash than was anticipated. 
 It’s always kind of been this way with us. The joke in our camp when thi
 s happens goes something like: And for tonight’s entertainment\, we have
  for you “The What We Thought They Were’s” followed by the “Louder
  Than We Thoughts”! Recently we did a gig where the spokesperson said to
  us just before we went on\, ‘so maybe don’t come out with your heavie
 st guitar stuff and your 808 bass bullshit right off the rip…there are k
 ids and old people here and they’ll leave” (he was trying to be helpfu
 l). We politely told him “Don’t worry\, we have a plan”.. .and then 
 again opened with ‘Two Wolves\,’ with it’s loud guitar stuff and it
 ’s 808 bullshit\, followed by a dynamic set where we touched on all the 
 different things we do and everyone proceeded to have a great time. That
 ’s kind of always how it’s been with us. – Shovels and Rope ___ Nola
