Based out of Portland, Oregon, the eight-piece band\u2019s sound could be described as halfway between classic, skilled ranchera country and that of the house band for the \u201cslow hot death of the world,\u201d as the vocals off their 2014 song <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/K8SpKLYB6_4\"><i>Slow Hot Death<\/i><\/a> hauntingly intonate. Led by the twangy, versatile vocals and sun scorched, weather-beaten cowgirl poetry of Charlotte McCaslin, Roselit Bone\u2019s soaring horns and weaving guitar harmonies had electrified their audience in the two previous shows seen by this reporter over the last few years; and this first of two Treefort 2021 performances was no exception.<\/p>\n<p>Roselit Bone\u2019s journey began as a duo in 2013 with a dark Western dream, growing to a revolving musical ensemble with violin, lap steep guitar, trumpets and dobro (to name a few), and a sound that captures the chaos and cracking facade of the modern world, all with a wry sonic homage to Hollywood Westerns past. Their subjects range from identity struggles to environmental decline to systemic violence to all-out apocalyptic nightmare visions while their lyrics wield honesty and defiance to confront a world on fire.<\/p>\n<p>Charlotte sat down with me in the Fern Room of the Owyhee Hotel a few hours before their second <a href=\"https:\/\/theboisebeat.com\/index.php\/2021\/08\/09\/treefort-is-back-boises-treefort-music-fest-will-go-on-this-september-with-an-exciting-lineup-of-400-bands\/\">Treefort show<\/a> at the <i>Neurolux<\/i> to talk the festival, her writing influences, apocalyptic country, urban warfare and where to find eggs in the Middle of Nowhere, Wyoming (Spoiler, you can\u2019t):<\/p>\n<p><strong>Interview Transcript (Charlotte McCaslin)<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">What\u2019s your time been like at Treefort so far?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">C: It\u2019s been one of the most fun Treeforts that I\u2019ve had, just because cause we\u2019re not on tour \u2013 usually we\u2019re on tour, and then we wind up here. So we don\u2019t get a lot of time to hang out and network with the other bands. Being able to do it the whole weekend is really nice. We pulled it in pretty late Friday, and just chilled at the hotel.

So seeing them the night before, on a stage, they were scary. And then at the skate park, I got pumped up and was skating to it. At Treefort, y\u2019know, bands have these second chance shows, where you see a band at night, and then you see them during the day. And it\u2019s fun to see the difference in those performances.

What\u2019re your thoughts on that as one label, among others, for your sound?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">C: I don\u2019t have a problem with it, and we\u2019re always evolving. I think people seeing us tonight will see that we\u2019re sort of heading into a more synthy direction, incorporating elements of new wave and electronic sound, not like dance electronic. Lately I\u2019ve been listening to a lot of synthy pop, synth wave, dark wave, and industrial; I\u2019ve always listened to industrial. There\u2019s a little bit of that coming into the sound, that might not reflect on the last record, but definitely will on the next one.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">I look forward to whatever that looks like next. There\u2019s something kind of special about how more and more bands around this moment are starting to experiment with dissonance too, and I think seeing you guys live, that\u2019s something that comes to mind.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">C: Yeah, we\u2019re always had that to us.

And then we also had our hottest days in history, this summer I believe, where it got up to like 116 or something. Climate anxiety has always been a part of my writing, and I think that hasn\u2019t changed, because it hasn\u2019t gotten better. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Yeah, and that leads me to another question I had about your writing. Among other things, your nightmare poetry on your 2017 album <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><i>Blister Steel<\/i><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">, really drew me in on my first listen to you guys a few years ago. And then that lyrical grittiness evolves, but I think remains constant on your 2019 album <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><i>Crisis Actor<\/i><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">. I\u2019m curious what writers or media helped inspire that in you, the fascination with hellish, nightmare imagery and the macabre?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">C: I mean I feel like I\u2019ve always been a macabre person, even when I try not to be. But specific writers that inspire me are, probably pretty obvious, but Cormac McCarthy, William Faulkner and Leonard Cohen as a poet, I love his poetry. I\u2019m a big lyrics person, especially recently, so that\u2019s almost always the thing that I latch onto in music. And growing up, I listened to some of the scariest bands on the planet I think, y\u2019know, like Swans.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">I was going to ask!<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">C: And one writer I really love is Will Oldham, Bonnie \u201cPrince\u201d Billy.

You love convulsing and moving in whatever way the muse grabs you. I think that really adds to the intensity and memorability of your shows, and helps shatter the barrier between the performer and the audience; the false barrier the stage creates. Were there performers in that vein earlier in your life that left a mark on you?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">C: Yeah, I grew up in Orange County, so I would go see a lot of punk shows while I was in high school, including a lot of classic LA punk bands. And I think that was just always part of it, it\u2019s a power that exists in punk music that you don\u2019t see a lot in other genres. I think confrontation with an audience is a way to break down a lot of emotional barriers with them, and make people feel any type of way.

The very first tour we made out east from Portland, past Boise, we were touring in a short school bus, a diesel school bus. And our radiator blew in the middle of Wyoming, and it was my first time in Wyoming, first time really being on a long tour. As soon as we got out of Portland, got into Wyoming, the needle went to red, and steam started blowing out of our engine. And we pull over into this BLM land, there were seven of us in the band, and none of us were mechanics (<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><i>laughs)<\/i><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">C: There was nothing for miles around.
