Jason Isbell – ‘Southeastern’ New album out October 7th

Acclaimed US singer-songwriter Jason Isbell leaves no stone unturned on his sublime new album ‘Southeastern’, out October 7th on Southeastern Records/Thirty Tigers, and one of his most sleeve-worn records to date.

Unlocking the door to his psyche with 12 soul searching confessionals, from haunting opener ‘Cover Me Up’ to ‘Elephant’ – a frank, raw meditation on death – this self-penned album extols the virtues of facing your demons head on.

Covering a mixed musical palette, album highlights include the blistering country rock of ‘Flying Over Water’, the backporch strum of ‘Different Days’ and ‘Super 8’, which runs an electric volt straight through the heart of country.

US country star Kim Richey lends a hand with vocals as does Isbell’s singer-songwriter wife Amanda Shires; Richey on ‘Stockholm’ and ‘Relatively Easy’, and Shires on ‘Travelling Alone’. The record also features members from Isbell’s band The 400 Unit, including Derry de Borja on keyboards and Chad Gamble on drums.

It was recorded in Nashville and produced by Dave Cobb (Jamey Johnson, The Secret Sisters).

Having reached the artist’s highest ever debut on the Billboard Top 200 at No.23, US critics have been unanimous in their praise for the new record, currently out in the States. New York Times Magazine have called Jason Isbell “One of America’s thoroughbred songwriters” and USA Today have said “every song on Isbell’s fourth studio album punches your gut.”

Originally finding fame as guitarist and songwriter in the much-lauded Drive-By Truckers, this is Isbell’s first solo album following his celebrated 2007 debut ‘Sirens of the Ditch’. Since then, he has recorded three albums with The 400 Unit; this is the follow-up to their 2009 self-titled LP.

Having toured the UK as special guest support to Ryan Adams last year, Jason will take on his own headline tour this autumn – UK dates to be announced shortly.

Full tracklisting for ‘Southeastern’

Tim Easton to Release ‘Not Cool’ 9th September 2013

Nashville, TN – Not Cool, the tenth studio album from critically acclaimed Folk/Rocker Tim Easton will be released 9th September on his own label Campfire Propaganda with marketing and distribution support from Thirty Tigers.  Not Cool is a satisfying return to the more rootsy side of Tim Easton, informed by folk traditions and inspired by a walk into a honky-tonk directly across the street from the legendary Ryman Auditorium.  Easton’s previous releases have garnered accolades from Rolling Stone, NPR’s Fresh Air, American Songwriter and more.  After stints in NYC and most recently Joshua Tree, CA, Easton recently settled in Nashville where he recordedNot Cool.

The title track harkens back to the sound that many associate with Tim Easton – reflective and contemplative, highlighting his lyrical gift and bluesy, tasteful guitar.  The Chicago Sun Timesonce wrote of Easton “His songs resolve around the moments of musical camaraderie that exist between broken hearts, introspective loners and dark nights that illuminate the soul”.  Yet, this new collection of mostly original songs has a decidedly 1950’s Sun Studio-esque vibe to them – clearly influenced by his decision to relocate to Nashville.  Though not everything on the album was recently written, when Easton envisioned a rockabilly inspired collection in a style he refers to as “modern vintage” songs that hadn’t fit on previous releases found a home on Not Cool.   “Troubled Times” features a classic Tennessee Three type of arrangement with upright bass, guitar and drums while “Hey Little Doggies” and “Don’t Lie” exhibit a similar feel.  The album’s closing track “Knock Out Roses” is a tasteful instrumental tribute to Levon Helm, written on the day he passed away.
Not Cool was produced and recorded by Brad Jones and Robin Eaton.  Recorded in a short five days, Easton chocks up the experience to being “the most fun, exciting, and hyper-collaborative time I’ve ever had in the studio”.  Jones also produced Easton’s 1998 debut release Special 20which helped to kick-start his successful touring and recording career.  The new album features performances from Sadler Vaden, Jon Radford, JD Simo and Easton’s musical partner on the road – fiddler Megan Palmer.

Easton will be hitting the road, both in the US, AND EUROPE over the next few months in support of the album’s release.

Gregory Alan Isakov to release new album The Weatherman 26th August 2013

Born in Johannesburg, South Africa, and calling Colorado home, Gregory Alan Isakov has been travelling all his life. Songs that hone a masterful quality beyond hi years tell a story of miles and landscapes, and the search for a sense of place.His song-craft lends to the deepest lyrical masterpieces, with hints of his influences, Leonard Cohen and Bruce Springsteen. It just has a certain feeling about it. His new album, The Weatherman, was recorded mostly in solitude outside the quiet mountain town of Nederland, Colorado over the course of a year and a half. “I wanted to make something that felt genuine. We recorded everything with analogue gear and mixed it on tape, which gives the songs a raw and vunerable feeling.”

The title Isakov chose for the record reflects the nature of his external surroundings as much as his inner experiences. References to the weather are a reoccurring theme in Isakov’s writing, but there is a deeper meaning behind the name.

“To me, the idea of a weatherman is really powerful. There’s a guy on television or on the radio telling us the future, and nobody cares. It’s this daily mundane miracle, and I think the songs I chose are about noticing the beauty in normal, everyday life.”

The Mediaeval Baebes to perform at Cropedy! August 10th 2013

 

The Mediaeval Baebes first launched in 1996, when a group of friends broke into a North London cemetery and sang together, clad in flowing white gowns and crowns of ivy and since then they have gone on to have  Gold and Silver albums in the UK and a very successful career in the States where they tour annually.  Their musical lives are lived  in a demi monde of the classical, folk and indie world and they have enjoyed number one classical albums during their career.   Their latest Album The Huntress comprises 17 tracks that reflect both the traditional folk influences behind their music as much as their renowned classical songs as shown on their enchanting version of “Lenten Ys Come”.

 

The Mediaeval Baebes are a unique phenomenon in the musical world.  Their lyrics are sourced from mediaeval texts and then set to original scores using mediaeval and classical instruments. The choice of mediaeval texts are  dramatic, obscure and dark in topic and remark upon the inevitability of death, the pointlessness of material possessions, the horror of unrequited love or the dangers of imbibing too much alcohol.   The singing includes an impressive array of long forgotten languages and has an ethereal quality that is as powerful as it is soothing.

 

The Mediaeval Baebes have performed before enthusiastic audiences in the UK, United States, Canada, Asia and Europe in venues ranging from castles and caves to nightclubs and Renaissance Fayres.  They have toured with Jools Holland and played at The Royal Albert Hall, Carnglaze Caverns in Cornwall, Jersey Opera House, Tewkesbury Abbey, supported Michael Flatley in Hyde Park, and performed at the legendary Lilith Fair.   Now they will add Cropedy to this exotic list.

 

The current line up  includes Katherine Blake, Sarah Kayte, Clarey Edmondson, Josephine Ravenheart, Esther Dee, Emily Alice Ovenden.

Katy Carr and the Aviators play WOMAD Festival 2013

 

 

 

 

 

2012 : British press Paszport album reviews with quotes

FRoots (Folk Roots) ‘There is so much work, love, and singular talent that has gone into this on every level.’

Songlines ‘A personal yet epic song cycle that stands alone.’

Q ‘Via a set of songs about the violence inflicted on her parent’s Polish homeland during WWII, even if you can’t understand the occasional song in Polish, there is no mistaking the weight they carry.’

Uncut ‘Ambitious and dazzling – the concept album she lives!’

The Guardian ‘Concept album of the year’

The Evening Standard ‘A deeply felt personal statement.’

The Times ‘Never less than immaculate’

Independent on Sunday ‘Angular, theatrical, Klezmeric, Intriguing.’

The Observer ‘Tender and brave in equal measure, Paszport proves a rich, rewarding creation.’

R2 Rock n Reel ‘Paszport is truly exceptional’

 

Being called “the Polish Bjork” might be a strange accolade if you’d grown up in Nottingham, almost right in the dead centre of England. But Katy Carr probably loves the comparison. Born to a Polish mother, her sprawling, ambitious music is deeply informed by the life lessons of those on the maternal side of her family tree. Her latest (and fourth) album is Paszport, an impressively expansive work that pays tribute to the resilience shown by her mother’s compatriots during the Second World War. It’s a record that The Observer correctly identified as “a concept album gone refreshingly right”, with Katy’s keening voice ¬- one that wouldn’t be out of place in any folk club – combining with chilly Mittel-European instrumentation to profound effect. A strong admirer of 1940s culture, Katy Carr is clearly an artist out of time, a songwriter not from the here and now, but from forever.

-Nigel Tassell

WOMAD, World of Music, Arts and Dance, is an internationally established Festival bringing together artists from all over the globe. WOMAD continues to present music that we feel to be of excellence, passion and individuality, regardless of musical genre or geographical origin, to thousands of festival goers everywhere. As an organisation, WOMAD now works in many different ways, but our aims are always the same – at festivals, performance events, through recorded releases and through educational projects, we aim to excite, to inform, and to create awareness of the worth and potential of a multicultural society.

Della Mae ‘This World Oft Can Be’

“Della Mae are five classy musicians and the album makes you want to see them live”  Telegraph

4* Maverick – “this all-female ‘bluegrass’ band deliver a most impressive second album”

4* Mirror –  “the all female Boston based quintet are, like the Avett Brothers and Lumineers, from a new generation of talented stateside musicians delivering a modern take on country music”

http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/what-s-mangrass-bluegrass-gals-della-mae-rock-out-with-unique-sound-20130626

On August 12th, Boston-based quintet Della Mae release their debut for Rounder, This World Oft Can Be.  The album, which was produced by Bryan Sutton and mixed by Paul Q. Kolderie (Radiohead, Hole, Dinosaur Jr.)  shows that like the Avett Brothers, Lumineers, and Punch Brothers, these five multitalented young women are respectful of American musical tradition, but not restricted by it, combining centuries’ worth of musical influences with an emotionally tough, undeniably modern songwriting sensibility.This World Oft Can Be’s 12 songs—including such engaging originals as “Empire,” “Paper Prince” “Maybeline” and the feisty title track—showcase the fivesome’s world-class instrumental abilities, lilting harmonies and subtly commanding lead vocals.  Although the musicians’ sublime skills have already won them numerous individual honors, the album’s focus is squarely on the band’s emotionally potent songs and spirited, effortlessly expressive performances.

“The identity that we’ve developed as a band is a melting pot of our different personalities and backgrounds,” asserts founder Kimber Ludiker. After having the idea at a summer festival, Kimber hand picked musicians from all over the country: singer Celia Woodsmith comes from a blues/rock background, guitarist Courtney Hartman studied at Berklee College of Music, bassist Shelby Means played with various bands in Nashville, and mandolin player Jenni Lyn Gardner was schooled in traditional bluegrass. Della Mae’s members hail from all over the United States, and the five women each bring impressive musical resumes amassed in their previous ventures.

Della Mae recorded This World Oft Can Be at Cash Cabin Studio, Johnny Cash’s former recording base, in Hendersonville, Tennessee. In addition to absorbing the studio’s inspirational vibes, Courtney Hartman played June Carter Cash’s vintage 1933 Gibson L5 Round Hole guitar on “Some Roads Lead On,” while Ludiker had the honor of borrowing John Hartford’s custom carved fiddle on “Letter From Down The Road.”

In addition to playing festivals and clubs throughout the United States, Della Mae recently expanded the scale of its touring efforts after participating in the U.S. State Department’s American Music Abroad program.  Selected as cultural ambassadors, the band spent 43 days traveling in Pakistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan, where they collaborated with local musicians, taught educational programs for children, and played concerts for local audiences.

“It’s been a life-changing experience for us, individually and as a band,” Ludiker says of the tour. “A cool thing about playing music in Central Asian countries is in the lack of distinction their audience places between musical genres.  We found that if music is played with feeling, all people connected to it. They find themselves smiling and relating without even understanding the language.”

Indeed, Della Mae demonstrates how effectively music builds bridges and transcends artificially constructed borders, whether they’re national or genre-based.

Della Mae will tour the United States this summer.

The Deadly Gentlemen

Roll Me, Tumble Me, the Deadly
Gentlemen’s third album and Rounder
debut, boasts ten winsome examples of
their playfully irreverent, vibrantly rootsy
songcraft. The Boston-based
quintet comprise acoustic guitar, banjo,
fiddle, mandolin and double bass, infused with an assortment of influences through their own decidedly distinctive songwriting sensibility and uncanny instrumental rapport. The result is timelessly resonant music that’s rooted in tradition, yet effortlessly contemporary and boundlessly entertaining.

The Deadly Gentlemen’s members had all led eventful individual musical lives before they joined forces. In addition to touring and recording extensively with Crooked Still, Greg Liszt attended college at Yale and earned a Ph.D. from M.I.T. in Molecular Biology. His innovative four-finger picking technique helped him to win a place as a member of Bruce Springsteen’s live band for Springteen’s Seeger Sessions tour.

Mike Barnett began his career as a child fiddle prodigy, touring with bluegrass legend Jesse McReynolds at the tender age of 15. His world-class talents have won him gigs as a member of the David Grisman Quintet and the Tony Trischka Band.

Bassist Sam Grisman has played professionally since his teens, having learned to play bluegrass and other styles at the feet of his father, seminal mandolinist David Grisman.

Mandolinist Dominick Leslie is another former child prodigy, having achieved a series of career milestones before he’d reached the age of 16. Recently, he’s won considerable attention for his live appearances with banjoist Noam Pikelny, the Infamous Stringdusters, and the Grant Gordy Quartet.

In contrast to his bandmates’ backgrounds in acoustic music, guitarist Stash (short for Stanislaw) Wyslouch grew up on heavy metal before submerging himself in bluegrass and country. His history in hard rock still manifests itself in his propensity for wringing unexpected sounds out of his guitar and screaming at the top of his vocal range. His resume also includes membership in Eric Robertson and the Boston Boys as well as Blue Moose and the Unbuttoned Zippers.

Liszt first hooked up with Barnett and Grisman in 2008 to record the first Deadly Gentlemen project The Bastard Masterpiecee. By the time the current lineup solidified in time to record the 2011 followup Carry Me to Home, the group’s style had begun to evolve towards the sound that’s featured on Roll Me, Tumble Me, reflecting the five musicians’ wide range of interests and diverse assortment of personalities. Liszt and his bandmates sharedproduction with noted Nashville engineer Erick Jaskowiak; cutting the instrumental tracks in a makeshift studio set up for the occasion in a house in Eclectic, Alabama, before bringing the tracks home to Boston to record their vocals; resulting in a remarkable creative output which is too eclectic and unruly to be contained within a single genre.

UK Release date 5th August – on Rounder Records

The Dunwells

People have hobbies. Some collect stamps. Some knit. Some build birdhouses. I go to @thedunwells‘ concerts.  FAN TWEET

MUSIC PHOTOS VIDEOS …ON THE LINK http://mediakits.concordmusicgroup.com/p/follow-the-road/

THE  TRAILER 

http://youtu.be/GycyHNi-OGQ

THE ALBUM

The Dunwells will be releasing Follow The Road in the UK  on May 27th 

on DECCA

The album comprises 11 tracks that have been recorded or re recorded over the past two years at studios in Austin, New Orleans, London and Los Angeles, with some illustrious names in the production seat, from John Porter, George Drakoulias, Chris Kimsey, Tim Palmer, Jamie Candiloro, Ghian Wright

 

THE JOURNEY ….

 

The Dunwells arrived in the States from Leeds via London connections. Signing to an American Label, Playing In Traffic in 2011/Concord Music 2012 and finally after an amazing journey the re release will happen in the UK in May 2013.

 

The band have been touring pretty much non stop in the US ever since their signing with appearances on Jay Leno and there is no sign of stopping.   It has been the classic journey of getting out playing, gaining your live chops on the road, and in this case, it has born ever greater fruit, with a band that draws nothing but joy from its audiences.

 

THE QUOTES

Sometimes, a band is so talented you can’t help but just sit and smile as they play   – Austin Chronicle

” the folk-rockers’s rootsy songwriting and lush harmonies have been earning raves” – LA Times

The UK’s harmony-happy Dunwells dive into American balladry with aching sincerity and melodic tics that recall Crowded House’s soft side” NY Times

“Another Band that Leeds can claim proudly as their own” –

Counterfeit Magazine,

“must-see band” (NME)

Q Recommends -Dec 2012

 

THE TRACKS

 

The Single and title track to the album “Follow The Road” has strains of psychedelia mixed into lush guitars and their signature epic 5 part harmonies which have earned them all manner of band comparisons from an English Fleet Foxes to Mumford & Sons, Crowded House to the Lumineers.    “It was written and tweaked in numerous places. Hanson had a riff that he had been working on, the song was started on the way up to a gig in Scotland, as we were going up in two vans we had to stop both vans at the side of the road just to show the rest of the guys. Then it was put on the back burner for a bit until

 

we got to Texas and this is where the song came to life, sitting by a pool in the blazing sun getting ready to record our debut album. It kind of reiterates the point Blindsighted Faith makes with the chant “Follow the road.” If we hadn’t, we wouldn’t have been in Texas at the point in our lives”

 

The anthemic tune on the album stands out as “If I could Be A King “ Joe says “I wrote this as a waltz. At practice I played it a few times and I think it was Jonny, originally, who turned round and said: “good song but I’m bored,” so he went mental on the drums, then I played the track over the top of that.  Then – hey, presto – we have the upbeat song that we have been looking for nearly a year. It was funny how the banjo took part. Dave D forgot his guitar one day and we had a banjo hanging round the studio.  He just jammed along and then that stayed.”

 

“Goodnight My City” is a live favourite, “Dave D and I had this track in the bag for quite a while; it was a 6 and 1/2 minutes song with spoken verses about city life in the day and at night. The idea of the chorus was worth keeping. When the whole band got together it was one of the first songs that we started working on to put into our live set..”

 A long road from the Pudsey for the two Dunwell brothers, Joe and David, two cousins Jonny Lamb and Rob Clayton, and school friend Dave Hanson….

Son Volt US TOUR

Son Volt Announces Spring & Summer Touring In Support of Honky Tonk:

2013 is shaping up to be an incredibly busy year for Son Volt: in March , they will release Honky Tonk, the highly anticipated follow up to 2009’s acclaimed American Central Dust.

Also in March, Son Volt’s “eloquent and thought-provoking” (Spin) founder and leader, Jay Farrar, will publish Falling Cars and Junkyard Dogs (Soft Skull/Counterpoint Press).

The band is planning to tour behind Honky Tonk throughout the year. They have announced the dates for April through June, which will include a hometown show on June 1 in St. Louis.

Honky Tonk features eleven new Son Volt compositions that excavate the classic honky tonk sound of Bakersfield, yet distill and reimagine it. Honky Tonk stays true to the spirit of honky tonk music, while stretching out its familiar contours into new shapes and spaces.

Wall Street Journal music critic Jim Fusilli wrote that with American Central Dust, Farrar  “claimed his spot in the line of America’s great country songwriters who rocked in their own, inimitable way.” As evidenced by the songs on Honky Tonk, that was only the beginning.
