I went to see @thisismodelhouse tonight at @wtjuradio. It was such a fun show. Great music, a modern take on a throwback vibe. #charlottesville #livemusic by @thisismodelhouse

@wtjurock is pleased to announce that September’s Third Rail brings neo-folk sensation Model House to the stage at 2244 Ivy Road, September 19, 8-9pm. This free event is open to all at 7:30pm. You can also listen on 91.1 FM, stream via wtju.net, video stream on WTJU’s YouTube channel, or listen via WTJU’s mobile app.

@thisismodelhouse is more or less a neo-folk songwriting collective laden with homeschooled autists and criminals. Featuring seven songwriters, reformed punks, and petty thieves, they have amassed a formidable—and in total transparency—overwhelming catalog in a relatively short span together. Pulling members from free agency, injured reserve, and county lockup, a deep bench and a focus on the fundamentals make this team a formidable opponent in the Central Virginia Exurban Folk Conference.

Their music explores many different facets of folk with twists of soul, Americana, and gospel influence with a dash of unnerving theatrical flair. A puzzled fellow musician settled on “Apocalyptic Folk” and that seems to fit just fine. With seven vocalists and questionable cultish tendencies, Model House creates power and depth within each song, which may leave listeners feeling scared or uncomfortable. And you’re just going to have to be okay with that.

In the works is a debut triple album with contributions from each member culling inspiration from Hrotsvitha, Julie Andrews, the IRA, and the Manson Family (pre-murders). It’s Baroque Folk for broke folks.

Third Rail is supported locally by @hello.goodbye.cville, at 108 4th Street, Northwest, in Downtown Charlottesville. by @thisismodelhouse
