Adam Kline, more commonly known by his songwriting and performing name Golden Shoulders, has been writing songs, touring incessantly and recording music with a shockingly diverse line up of players over the last decade. I was pretty excited when SLUG asked me to go to a small house show he would be performing at in the ninth and ninth neighborhood where I live. I mostly was familiar with him because one of my favorite songwriters Joanna Newsom spent some of her formative years singing and contributing keys for the band. The idea of seeing him in a less official, more intimate venue where meeting him would be easy was appealing.
