Giles Corey
Giles Corey is the folk-driven solo work of Dan Barrett, co-founder of Have a Nice Life and Enemies List Home Recordings. This November he tours it entirely alone for the first time. First released in 2011, the self-titled Giles Corey album began with a simple constraint: acoustic instruments only. That boundary opened into something much larger—guitar, piano, ghostly choirs, heavy organ, field recordings, and sudden walls of sound arranged around an intimate singer-songwriter core.

The songs move through depression, death, history, and the paranormal without treating any of them as distant ideas. Quiet desperation gives way to cathartic outburst; private confession becomes communal release. The album and its accompanying book have since gathered a fervent following, often described by listeners in the language of ritual or religious experience.
These are the first Giles Corey dates since a handful of shows in 2023, and the first Barrett has ever performed entirely solo: stark voice and acoustic instruments, unstable electronics, and arrangements built to move from a whisper to physical impact. The set includes brand new material performed live for the first time.
