Blessed Feathers and Way Yes at Stonefly Brewing Company
Wisconsin’s Blessed Feathers certainly aren’t lacking for a compelling origin story: Raised as a Jehovah’s Witness in Lakeland, Florida, singer Donivan Berube disassociated himself with the church, left home, and drove 36 hours to Wisconsin—all at age 17. He ended up finding work at a restaurant in West Bend where he met his eventual musical (and life) partner, Jacquelyn Beaupre. The duo’s atmospheric folk-pop caught the ear of New York producer Kevin McMahon (The Walkmen, Real Estate, Titus Andronicus), who recorded the new Peaceful Beasts In An Ocean Of Weeds EP, which is being released at tonight’s show.
