Treasure Valley Live is back and better than ever! In conjunction with Mixed Metaphor Studios, we're relaunching our music series in a new space with new equipment, new crew members, new music, and a new outlook. We can't wait to continue showing off the Treasure Valley music scene!

For this installment, we invited back Freeman DeJongh - singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist who has been a Boise mainstay for years. Here, he plays selections from his latest album, Dreadful Feelings. A stunning achievement, the new songs show a clear-eyed earnestness that never slides into sentimentality or lyrical navel gazing. It is, quite simply, one of our favorite releases of the year, and as the album grows increasingly emotional on its second side, the title becomes a potent phrase of shared humanity. Dreadful Feelings. By conjuring his, Freeman DeJongh exorcises yours.

Here it is: the final Treasure Valley Live in the home studio. This is our 19th video, having hosted an array of Boise bands and cataloged a surfeit of genres and grooves. This summer we will be continuing in a new space (a larger room with better sound and better visuals).

To end this current iteration, we couldn’t have had a more perfect act. By day, Wes Schlag is the bass player for local mainstay Mylo Bybee, but at night he morphs into this dingy, acoustic folk act. His music’s spirit exemplifies everything we love about the local music scene: the DIY attitude, the humility, the nuance, the ambiguity. Throughout this set, he triumphs in juxtaposing tongue-in-cheek lyrics with musical sincerity. Enjoy these four tunes and check out his full album on 3/31/23.

Cheers to the end of an era!
