Monday at the Granada: Phosphorescent

Under the moniker Phosphorescent, Matthew Houck has spent the last decade and a half making gorgeous records — 2010’s Here’s To Taking It Easy and 2013’s Muchacho among them — that hover around, and often elevate, the alt-country genre. His latest, C’est La Vie, opens up the Phosphorescent sound to vocoders and motorik beats, but the pedal steels and melodic beauty are present as ever.
