Having lived many years ago in British Columbia, on a teenage solo mission to see things and wander into the wilderness, I have a soft spot for anyone who lived similarly and reflected upon it musically. Such is the duo Ocie Elliott, who, hailing from Victoria on the big island, are a duo who play a gentle folk style that reflects a land where the snows don’t quite crush and you can do a lot of barefoot hiking. The two will be playing at the Arcata Theatre Lounge tonight at 7 p.m., along with Chris Staples, an American pacific northwest singer songwriter on a similar mission. Tickets will run you $38, which I suspect rounds up to $40 with fees, but I could be mistaken.
