Clock-Out Lounge Presents: Mary Timony w/ special guest Rosali Saturday March 23rd8:30 doors 21+$20adv/$22 dos https://www.ladyofthefire.org/For more than 30 years, singer-songwriter and guitar hero Mary Timony has cut a distinctive path through the world of independent music, most recently as vocalist and guitarist of acclaimed garage-pop power trio Ex Hex (Merge) but also as a member of seminal post-punk band Autoclave (Dischord), celebrated leader of the deeply influential Helium (Matador), multifaceted solo artist (Matador, Lookout!, Kill Rock Stars), and a co-founder of supergroup Wild Flag (Merge). Described by Sleater-Kinneys Carrie Brownstein as Mary Shelley with a guitar and dubbed a trailblazer and an innovator by [Marys former guitar student] Lindsey Jordan a.k.a. Snail Mail, Timony has distinguished herself as one of her generations most influential guitarists and songwriters. Although she has remained a cult hero and critical favorite since the early 90s, appearing everywhere from 120 Minutes episodes to Coachella sets, Timonys many triumphs have long been counterbalanced by crippling doubt and self-nullification. Her fifth solo album, Untame the Tiger, approaches these emotions head on. Her first solo release in 15 years is a startling document of an artist fully coming into her own power during the fourth decade of her career. It is the product of lessons learned during life-altering struggle.https://scissortail-rosali.bandcamp.com/album/trouble-anywayPhiladelphia-based artist Rosali makes songs that take their time in revealing their full power. What might first appear to be restrained, introspective compositions will stretch slowly outward, snagging your attention with a subtly sideways guitar lead or an exceptionally raw lyric you didnt catch the first time around. A child of two musicians, Rosali grew up as part of a large family that sang together and taught themselves various instruments, finding the earliest forms of her musical voice harmonizing and making up songs with her sisters. As an adult, Rosali merged this musical upbringing with an active involvement in Phillys experimental and D.I.Y. community. Her 2016 solo debut Out of Love was released on Siltbreeze, a long-running label that champions abstract noise and challenging listening. While Rosalis earliest work was far nearer to folk-informed rock than harsh sonics, it held an intensity of its own in its strange angles and unexpected vulnerability.
