APRIL 10, 2011 — RUTHANN FRIEDMAN & LINDA PERHACS AT MCCABE’S
This is the first time Linda Perhacs and Ruthann Friedman play a show together. They are an epic Odd Couple brought together by the good forces of the world and psychedelic folk music. Their music has appeared in the same books, just a few pages apart, they live in the same city, have some of the same fans and even share a guitarist. Both have become special figures in the new folk music community of Los Angeles.
Linda Perhacs and Ruthann Friedman are wise women. Like fairy grandmothers, they have deep knowledge about the world and seem to float before your eyes. Perhacs’ wisdom comes from living a quiet life and inspiring nature walks. Friedman partied with Jefferson Airplane and The Association and gained her wisdom from walking on the wild side of life.
Musically, they’ve each contributed something unique to the psychedelic spectrum. Linda Perhacs is ethereal, using harmonies and layers to reveal the colors and light and love in a magical dimension. Ruthann Friedman is grounded in this dimension. She reveals the psychedelic in a story told how it is. Getting them both into the same room on the same night is definitely one of the coolest things we’ve done.
The event is even more special because it’s part of The New L.A. Folk Fest’s monthlong Japan tsunami relief fundraiser.
