On a cold Wednesday night at Providence’s Fete Music Hall, the indie faithful were treated to the next stop on Squirrel Flower and Horse Jumper of Love’s co-headlining tour, a small run of shows taking place in the northeast that placed an emphasis on solo material from each music project. For their stop in Providence, Ella (Squirrel Flower) and Dimitri (Horse Jumper of Love) were joined by local Providence outfit Nova One, performing as a duo, who perfectly set the tone for the evening with swirling, dreamy, and intimate renditions of their material. Dimitri continued with a short set on his acoustic guitar, met with respectful silence and engagement from the crowd, which he not only made note of, but also thanked the audience for. Squirrel Flower closed the night with songs from both the band’s catalog and material of the experimental soundscape variety that she quipped she doesn’t usually get the chance to perform, seeing as she regularly performs with a band. A night as quiet as this, it’d be easy for someone to assume something negative, but if anything, especially paired with the ambience of the Lounge, it felt akin to a secret show – you had to know the right people to get to experience something this arresting and cozy.
