Ben Schneider may hail from Los Angeles, but with his traveling band Lord Huron, the singer-songwriter explores haunting cowboy ballads, lush Americana and dusty Appalachian folk. While fans wait for its third studio album, Lord Huron is on the road revisiting the wondrous sound of its most recent album, 2015’s “Strange Trails,” which connects Bon Iver with Henry David Thoreau. See Schneider re-create its wide-screen landscapes at a string of Bay Area dates this weekm with three nights at the Independent in San Francisco and one night at the UC Theatre in Berkeley.
