Supporting their first record release in eight
years, Gillian Welch and David Rawlings
deliver their unique style of Americana to
Tinseltown. Favoring stage mic’ing over pickups, the duo are also champions of vintage
acoustic tone. While Rawlings looks over
during a solo on his 1935 Epiphone Olympic
archtop, Welch holds the rhythm on her 1956
Gibson J- 50.
