Live Music: My Weight in Gold Stars

My Weight in Gold Stars is singer-guitarist Brian Maselli’s stripped-down sketches of fleeting joy and lingering sorrow, of delusions of greatness and admissions of guilt, of doubt and death, of love and loss, and the fear of the fading of youth. It’s whispers over whiskey and coffee under cream. It’s ringing ears, stinging tears, and finally seeing clearly after years. And years. And years. It’s a train sound that wakes you, then grows distant and dim, like voices heard through a ceiling or wall. And who can tell if they’re calling it quits or falling in love?
