- Gladden House alumni Mandolin Orange brought their lush, haunted sounds back to the stage Saturday afternoon for a secret show featuring a showcase of emotionally rich songs from over the course of their decade-long career.
The Chapel Hill, NC husband-wife duo, Andrew Marlin and Emily Frantz, have crafted four albums since signing to esteemed independent record label, Yep Roc Records, in 2014. The most recent is 2019’s "Tides of a Teardrop," which paints Marlin’s lifelong grief after losing his mother unexpectedly when he was only 18 years old with aching, quietly spiritual songs. Mandolin Orange was joined on stage by guitarist Josh Oliver, bassist Clint Mullican, and percussionist Joe Wusterland.
Upon assembling themselves onstage, Mandolin Orange sprang into “Lonesome Whistle” from their 2016 album "Blindfaller," a song that artfully captures all the homesick glory of the old-time train songs it models itself after. That aching sentiment bled into the band’s rendition of “Lonely All the Time” off of the aforementioned "Tides of a Teardrop," a surprisingly playful sonic meditation on wistful, bitter days, the tiring churning of time, and, worst of all, cold coffee.
Marlin then introduced “Buried in a Cape,” the title track of his 2018 instrumental solo effort (Mandolin Orange LLC) which he wrote in memory of American folk great John Hartford, whose body of lauded, often unconventional music greatly influenced Marlin. Hartford passed away in 2001at the age of 63 after a four-year battle with Hodgkins lymphoma and was buried wearing a Batman cape. Allegedly the cape was unintentionally thrown in with the clothes that were sent to the funeral director, but when his widow saw it, she thought it was fitting for her famously idiosyncratic husband.
Frantz then promised the audience that they only had one song left to play, joking that “it would be kind of unlike us to leave you on an upper,” before playing “Blue Ruin,” which Marlin wrote directly in response to the tragic 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. Frantz said the band “almost never plays it live anymore,” but because of the continually intensifying debate over gun violence in the United States, the raw, heartbreaking sentiment of the song, which was originally released on 2015’s "Such Jubilee," felt appropriate.
In response to the din of audience applause and demand for another song, Marlin said “we’ll rock one for ya,” before busting into “Hard Travelin’,” a song off "Blindfaller," which tells the rollicking story of a nomadic musician, one that rings true to “blindfaller’s” definition, the “reckless and destructive nature in all of us.”

"Lonesome Whistle" - 1:01
"Lonely All the Time" - 5:25
"Buried in a Cape" - 9:04

The chemistry between Andrew and Emily is almost a perfect example of partnership .
This is the absolute best of mandolin orange!!!!!!
Thank God we have Mandolin O keepin this music alive, love you
Her timing and when to come in with her violin is beyond perfect. |Amazing partnership.
Emily has the most beautiful eyes in music.
Having had the pleasure of randomly meeting Emily close-up backstage this summer, I can tell you that she's startlingly beautiful and absolutely charming. What she brings musically is way beyond my hopes or expectations. IOW, one beautiful person. The guys aren't bad, either.
Everything about her is super attractive. Just look how cute she is in that outfit. She is the perfect package. Which also means chances are she is an absolute lunatic as far as relationships go. No girl with this many great things going for her has her head on straight. There is always a catch damn it
Absolutely lovely!
Actually I think Emily has the most beautiful pretty much everything in music
In the world!
I would love to see them play some day ,beautiful music .
I've seen them grow up though the years. Live and on line.and all they do is get nothing but better and better. Thank you two for being who you are.
You brought every dead part of me back to life!
Buried in a cape is such a good song, i come back to this video weekly just to dance
Come'on back!
Let's keep it going. 😀
@@SuperEvilC thank you for reminding me, I havent had my weekly dose yet 😂😂

Absolutely the best music to come out of NC. Ever. Period! With love and appreciation from Canada!
They are definitely great. But we have lots more down here. Lots :)
this music will stir your soul!!!
That cut off in lonesome whistle is beautiful
The best thing I've heard in a long while.
This exact version of "Lonely all the time" has me so captured - I keep listening to it, 1-3 times a day and it just keeps increasing its tractor beam lock on me! WE CAN'T TAKE MUCH MORE OF THIS CAPTAIN!! I just can't believe how delicately the vocals are layered together, I'm singing both parts and will have to learn the mandolin soon. I'm so tiiiiiired of waking up to old cold coffee I made yesterday!
Just found this wonderful group not too long ago...I am a NC native uprooted and now living in California - so good to hear these tunes and so fulfilling for the the soul.
I am absolutely in love with these guys....I just got tears listening to this!
You aren't the only one!
Fabulous, you amaze me every time. Much love and light.🌀🦚🎶🦋🪶💋🦋🌀🦚💜💜
I cant stop listening to these folks
Get it girl !

We keep watching this and enjoy it more every time. Thank you! (I only wish I had been there ;-)

I’m not which aspect of this band I enjoy the most. That’s a great music appreciation problem to have! 😉
I remember the first vid from this place - you guys are huge!!
Sooo goood !!
This is really great. Love the shots of the crowd and the kids gathered around. Great music and people. Thanks, from New Zealand.
They are my favorite right now.............
Love❤️
you guys are really great ! Such a unique sound. Please play Blue Ruin more often - I see it as an anthem and remembrance for all those innocent people lost to gun violence
Nice shout out to Old Time Herald. Reminded me to renew my subscription and see how they're doing during this horrible coronahiatus for festivals, fiddle conventions and jam sessions. Musicians and their support systems both in rough shape.
Buy CDs! Visit tipjars! I assume these folks don't make a cent from TH-cam likefests.
You are fantastic!! Watched your Covid Christmas show live also. Recommended to my sister as well, she was very pleased :) Thanks for creating such beautiful music.
Just starting to listen so an early comment - what great sound quality from what seems like a single mike .
Andrew can really shred on the mandolin!
great!
Awesome. Would love to see them in person some day.
Highly recommended. Very enjoyable to show them a little love.
absolutamente enamorado de Emily
Mixed chants of "encore" and "one more" slowly morph into "one more song." Good stuff!
啊啊啊，我觉得这个唱歌是非常漂亮了。我每天都来这个网页听他们。听他们就我很轻松。希望我一天会弹洋琵琶！加油何谢谢你们
It’s going to be my first new Vinyl I’m the old records gal
Dit is mooie muziek Geweldig optreden Blue Ruin
Just saw this amazing band at 'Tønder Festival 2019' in Denmark. I pray that they return next year 🙏🏼
Mm red
The little boy sitting on the stage tapping his foot(towards the end). And the little girl in the blue dress, get music right off. About 4:50, it's a cheap trick but it works(the abrupt stop. leave 'em laughing as the old guy said). The audience is mesmerized. Emily is an angel who carries the holy voice(maybe a little over the top) to the level it deserves. If you guys get divorced and the band dis-bands and all that, it's still historical and someone will look it up. You did good.
Thank you for your patience.
Got to love when the strap just randomly falls off
🎶RISE UP ! hear yhe the music 🎸🎻🎁💖✨Hits the 🎯⚡⚡ 👍 The 🔑to my💖🎶🎻Stirs the soul🌈

I bet John Hartford is dancing right now
Mandolin boy reminds me of Andy Kaufman
15:20 yes indeed, that's a paint brush he's using for that drum. fantastic!
Actually, it’s a whisk broom, not a paint brush. The kind I use to sweep dirt out of the cab of my truck.
Just discovered these folks today, and lovin it pretty hard so far.
violin. i never imagine that how matches the sound of VIOLIN with fork music.☆
Notice how somber and the crowd got, and nervous the band was when she announced the Blue Ruin song about gun violence?
Emily, are you an angel?
One more song
execllent
Blue ruin sounds really different with a full band.
People who bitch about music not being good anymore....LISTEN!!!!!!!!!
Why so few likes?
With THIS artist?
thank me later. There were 666 likes when I got here. I made it 667. You're welcome! (LOL)
Tell Josh to play louder🤘
terrible sound with 1 mike
love those government wrist tags that even the talent must be branded with in order to proceed.
Ahh a
What are they calling themselves, millennials. Well children welcome to the fold. But it's a hard road to wrangleand it's a deep-draft to get in your horse he he might not drink it but you better stick your whole head in.
Plain as a creche in a cardboard box...
