Gracious Calamity :: Carefree Since ´83

Whitehaus Family Record ~ Jamaica Plain, MA ~ March 5th 2011

These two lovely ladies finally get to see the release of their first full length. Kate Lee and Kit Wallach carry songs with their incredibly catchy and beautiful harmonies and surround them with guitar and ukelele. Their sweet words form hymns about things ranging from the holy exaltation of music to bubblegum and shoelaces. The girls are joined by other Whitehaus allstars: flute from Regina Peterson of The Points North, drums and things from Greg Beson of MANNERS, bass from Sam Potrykus of The Needy Visions and Ambitious Tugboat and Lord Jeff, and Shira Erlichman of Tiny Tornadoes.

This record was produced maybe even over a year ago at the Shop in Weymouth, MA by Jerry MacDonald. It was laid down using a vintage console, but once the whole thing had been recorded the console broke, trapping the tracks inside. The gang had to wait several months to find a replacement part. Just like their music, this record is product of patience and hope.

This sampler reflects their shows called ‘hootenannies,’ which feature a wide spectrum of audible enjoyables, from slam poetry to acoustics to psychedelics. It’s a little ‘hoot’ captured in the grooves of this vinyl only double LP.

The Whitehaus Family Record


On any given weekend night in Jamaica Plain, by some fleeting word of mouth from friends of friends of friends you might wander up the dim wooden porch that is decorated with polaroids or a gutted antique radio or other found art projects. Upon entering this house you’ll realize that it might be the strangest and most interesting place you could’ve gone tonight. Creativity is strung from the ceilings and walls as a dumpster diving collage of broken instruments and equipment, random knick knacks and toys. The house itself buzzes and croons, becoming an amplifier for anything from sloppy, silly, sensitive folk to psyche piercing digital experiments. Its white rooms transform into a stage, a screen and willing host to various performance and projection anomalies. It’s more than just a living art project, a venue, a DIY record label or an art collective; it’s the Whitehaus Family Record.
