MJ Lenderman debuted six unreleased songs at a free show in Durham, North Carolina, as part of Sylvan Esso and Psychic Hotline’s Good Moon festival. Due to severe weather, Lenderman played a free indoor show at Bay 7. This time, Lenderman was not joined by his backing band, the Wind. Instead, he was joined onstage by Tanner York, Brad Cook and Colin Croom.
Lenderman performed “Apples,” which appeared to be one of the six songs documented in the clips. The short preview clip on Instagram stays consistent with Lenderman’s indie rock style and introspective lyrics, featuring dreamy guitar tones and a consistent sparse quarter-note groove from the drummer.
This was Lenderman’s first concert in five months, according to Stereogum. In May, Lenderman dropped off Zach Bryan’s tour for a break, but he performed in July with Karly Hartzman and Brad Cook at Tracey Nelson’s pop-up show.
