Lou and John killed it. Each did a few songs solo to kick things off; Lou took requests. They played a bunch of classics and the lion’s share of the new album as well. It was loose but still beautiful and their chemistry is lovely to watch. Really fun! The Tractor Tavern is an excellent joint.

About The Folk Implosion
Lou Barlow formed The Folk Implosion with John Davis in the 1990s as a way to explore different kinds of music that his other band Sebadoh did not normally play. "The Lou Barlow Folk Implosion," as it is sometimes called, took its name as a tribute to the band The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion. Another incarnation of this band went under the name Deluxx Folk Implosion, which featured Bob Fay, who worked with Lou Barlow in Sebadoh, on drums.
Folk Implosion briefly stepped to the forefront of the alternative rock scene with their song Natural One which was featured on the soundtrack to the movie Kids (Kids) and received strong airplay on alternative rock format radio stations.
