Grant-Lee Phillips – Friday, March 29, 2013

The Miners Foundry is pleased to present an Evening with Grant-Lee Phillips, an versatile multi-instrumentalist and emotionally-rich songwriter of intense lyrical narratives.

Walking in the Green Corn is the newest album by Grant-Lee Phillips.  The ten songs are drawn from Phillips’ intensive investigations into his native lineage.  Phillips, who is Muskogee (Creek), elliptically explores the intersection of past and present, personal and political.  While the songs delve deeply into the subconscious mystery of his own back story, they simultaneously reveal the resonance and insight of ancient myth in parallel to contemporary man’s emotions, actions, and errors.
