The Weather Machine at Hooker-Dunham
"Bigger, louder, and more dynamic than their debut, and they've never sounded better"
Portland Mercury
"Capable of channeling a soaring energy through their performances" PASTE Magazine
The Weather Machine's sophomore full-length, Peach, was recorded over the
course of two years, and showcases the band's transition from folk-born
storytelling into the realm power-ballads and effects pedals. It's not quite
"tongue and cheek," but Peach makes the listener wonder as it pits a not-quite country
anthem called "Wannabe Cowboys" right up against the electronic slow jam
title track, then moves deftly along into "Breakup Song" a tune worthy of
high-kicking chorus lines.
Based in Portland OR, The Weather Machine released its first full-length album
after a blustery winter of recording on the Oregon Coast. With strong ties to the
region, the 5-piece found its roots in the Pacific Northwest's unique folk aesthetic,
but has since developed hard-hitting, theatrical rock performance, drawing
comparisons to acts like My Morning Jacket, Hey Marseilles, and Josh Ritter.
Luke Hoffman, drummer for The Weather Machine and a member of The Washed Up Beulah Band with Arthur Davis, grew up in Shrewsbury and is returning to Vermont for the first time with his rock-n-roll outfit.
