Live session by Sera Cahoone recorded at the studios of the radio station KEXP, in Seattle, in 2026. An American singer-songwriter, a former drummer turned songwriter, Sera Cahoone cultivates an intimate folk tinged with americana and country, carried by a soft voice and stripped-down melodies. This filmed live concert belongs to the tradition of KEXP’s “full performances”, renowned for the quality of their sound and for the closeness they establish between artist and listener. In this uncluttered setting, Sera Cahoone runs through a set of songs where the simplicity of the arrangements — guitar, pedal steel, discreet rhythm section — highlights the writing and the emotion. The capture conveys the hushed atmosphere of a studio performance, far from the big festival stages, where every nuance counts. It illustrates the vitality of the folk and americana scene of the north-western United States, of which KEXP is one of the main champions. A full concert ideal for fans of folk, intimate country and acoustic songwriting, to savour for the sincerity and delicacy of an artist devoted to a form of authenticity.
