For Your Grammy® Consideration
Kaley Lane Eaton’s Plectrum Five is delighted to have our work on the 2026 Grammy® Ballot!
live from the unknown captures live, full takes of Kaley’s compositions, with no comping or edits, in an analog environment. On this record, Kaley introduces us to some of the stories and poems of her family: seven generations of women and only daughters out of Boulder, Montana, who first entered this land in the early 1860s and live there to this day. Her poetry wrestles with the lives of women who settled the west: the violence and oppression that they both experienced and inflicted, the independence they wrested in such a harsh landscape, the communities they created and cared for, and the profound relationship with the land and their personhood that ultimately grew out of this deeply confusing and problematic movement into the west.
