Folk, at its core, is anchored in a songwriter’s ability to transport listeners to a "fly on the wall" perspective. That uninhibited point of view, in which communicative distance shrinks to a personal level, creates a bond. Tonight, as she celebrates the release of her new EP, Deceiving Yourself and Everyone Else, which was produced by The Lawsuits’ Brian Dale Allen Strouse, Dylan Jane draws one in close at Bourbon & Branch. Silhouetted in Americana, the music imparts the fire-catching effects of pensive proximity, inviting warmth capable of sending a chill up your spine. A pair of locals, whom made contributions to the album, in the yearning emotive yet casual, alt-country, sonic steps of Friendship and the folk-spun, powerful elegance of Chelsea Mitchell (Dirty Dollhouse) helps in shaping this bill that is completed by Solar. Bourbon & Branch, 705 N. 2nd St., 8pm, $10, 21+ – Michael Colavita
