Sometimes a journey outside the downtown grid makes a musical experience better. Although Placerville hasn’t exactly been a hotbed for local or national acts, this weekend’s show is sure to please. Pregnant is the moniker for Daniel Trudeau’s project, and it will hold court with the equally talented Brianna Lea Pruett. If you haven’t heard Daniel’s heady blend of musical samples and organized chaos, perhaps a visit to his website is in order. Already a staple in the Sacramento Valley and neighboring cities, this is one artist who knows how to create soundscapes. Getting pregnant never sounded so good. 617 Main Street in Placerville, www.danielispregnant.com.
