Brown Horse Residency: Night #2 w/ hemlock
About This Event
Brown Horse, Jackie West and hemlock play Union Pool in a mixed bill that pairs alt‑country/Americana songwriting with rock/pop and textural electronic sets. Brown Horse offers guitar‑forward, plainspoken songs that favor clarity over spectacle, while Jackie West brings songwriting-led rock/pop that leaves space for small shifts in tempo and tone. hemlock contributes restrained, sequence‑based electronic work rooted in club architecture and improvisation, making for an evening where songcraft and timbre, rather than production gloss, drive the program.
About the Artists
Brown Horse

Jackie West
Jackie West is a New York–based rock/pop artist who appears on the city’s club circuit, including a billed set at Union Pool. She has shared lineups with Helenor and Lena Fjortoft, placing her work in a scene that prizes songwriting and live interplay over production gloss.
hemlock
hemlock is an electronic artist whose work sits between club architecture, textural sequencing, and open-ended improvisation. In New York City, they appear in Purgatory’s downtown basement circuit, including bills like *Pearla, Léna Bartels, and hemlock*, where the room’s close acoustics reward detail over volume.
