 Michigan-based "Northern Rock" collective the Great Lakes Myth Society take the road in support of their latest 2007 release Compass Rose Bouquet. Great Lakes Myth Society will be supporting the legendary Patti Smith for the evening, who ranks among the most influential female rock & rollers of all time. The concert will take place Thursday, August 2nd at The Michigan Theater in Ann Arbor. Click "read more" below for information and links to both acts.
The Great Lakes Myth Society's eponymous debut, an alternately brooding and nostalgic blend of muscular English folk-rock, pine-kissed Northern Americana and Midwest grit was released in April 2005 and within weeks the GLMS had broken into the CMJ Top 200 and appeared on both CNN and NPR's All Things Considered. Nic Harcourt recently played Hey Days On KCRW's Morning Becomes Eclectic and the response was fantastic!
Their new sophomore record, Compass Rose Bouquet, tells vivid tales about the ghosts of dead high school friends drifting along the sidewalks of your hometown in a parade of smoke, ravens scouring the Massachusetts turnpike for half-finished beers, fleets of black flies arriving overnight with detailed maps to the holes in your screens, and petite girls in summer dresses, with legs still white from winter eagerly signing the lease to the apartment you've lived in for the whole of your twenties.

Ambitious, unconventional, and challenging, Patti Smith's music is hailed as the most exciting fusion of rock and poetry since Bob Dylan's heyday. Smith follows her own muse wherever it takes her - from structured rock songs to free-form experimentalism. She is a powerful concert presence, singing and chanting her lyrics in an untrained but expressive voice, whirling around the stage like an ecstatic shaman delivering incantations.
