Fences with special guests Y La Bamba
The Woods Portland, OR
Fences is the most recent project from Christopher Mansfield. The Berkley trained and Brockton, MA-native teamed up with producer Sara Quin (Tegan and Sara) to create a stunning 10 song LP that will be released in early 2010. About Fences, Spin Magazine said, "Fences mastermind Chris Mansfield looks like he could be a roadie for New Jersey hardcore band Thursday, but don't be fooled. It's his acoustic guitar and quiet stories of emotional torment that shine..."
"Luz Elena, the lead singer of Y La Bamba, is an illusion in flesh and bone, a mirage that turns out to actually be there. A six-foot tall only daughter of Mexican immigrants to the USA, she looks like she peeled off of a National Geographic cover, spun through a tattoo parlour and hitched a 1000 mile ride on a mule. She seems 'of the earth' but writes songs that leave all our usual perceptions earthbound. Her lyrics, flowing as if from the pages Gabriel Garcia Marquez, are in fact shaped by classic struggles, with family, God and the experience of an extended and debilitating illness." - OPB
