Donavon Frankenreiter
Goodnight Texas

To create his fifth full-length album Start Livin', Hawaii-based singer/guitarist/songwriter Donavon Frankenreiter holed up in a Southern California studio for seven days with his longtime bassist Matt Grundy—and no one else. The follow-up to 2010’s Glow, Start Livin’ is a nine-track selection of folk-infused songs that sweetly reflect the simplicity of their recording. With its smooth showcasing of Frankenreiter’s rich, honey-thick vocals and masterful guitar work, Start Livin’ bears all the intimacy of an impromptu back-porch performance and the tenderness of a treasured love letter.
Goodnight, Texas is the transcontinental garage appalachian collaboration of San Francisco's Avi Vinocur (formerly of The Stone Foxes) and North Carolina's Patrick Dyer Wolf. Previously known as P. Wolf and Avi, both songwriters are old souls in modern bodies: the duo pays as much homage to 19th and early 20th century folk, and blues, as to The Tallest Man on Earth, Ryan Adams, and The Fleet Foxes.... Their pre-debut LP Coattails (2010) is a stripped-down and earthen set, in turn raucous and sparse. Since the album's release, the lads have been touring both coasts and appeared in Austin during 2011's South By Southwest music festival.
