Artist: Adam Green

I am here tonight because someone I love who loves the music of Adam Green wanted to die last night. If I can be here, in some small way perhaps it might keep her alive. Admittedly, Adam Green (he of Moldy Peaches fame) is not my favorite musician. He’s not even my least favorite musician. And yet when you’re in love with someone, they bring into your lives artists about whom you ordinarily wouldn’t have even the vaguest scintilla of awareness. And now he’s here and she’s elsewhere and this is what you do when you’re in [...]

Happy 1st of May ... ► Paramore visits the Wiltern behind its wildly popular new self-titled album. Fans are "Still Into You," as the video suggests. ► The Killers do the first of two SoCal dates, this one at Honda Center. ► U.K. provocateurs (and masked men) Clinic , doing their first U.S. tour since 2010, play the Troubadour behind their latest album "Free Reign," supported by No Joy and Electric Flower Group. ► And there's a great local lineup at the Bootleg Bar, with NO , [...]

by Andrew Sacher It was pretty exciting earlier this year when baroque pop legends The Zombies (who just released a RSD 12" ) toured with support from Elephant Stone , and now, as revealed in today's Summerstage 2013 lineup announcement , they'll be playing a show in NYC with another band they've surely influenced, Django Django . That show happens on June 15 at Central Park Summerstage and [...]

This is the first time I’ve seen Adam Green play in quite a while. My experience of him as a live performer is limited to a solitary support slot for  The Cribs , across town at the Apollo in 2009. Back then, he didn’t really have any practical reason to be there – his newest record, at the time, was more than eighteen months old – but that certainly didn’t slow him down, as he delivered a performance that was equal parts thrilling and farcical; decked [...]

Since its release we haven't stopped listening to the Adam Green & Binki Shapiro record - what with its velvet tones and love-beaten themes. We hooked up with the duo for a delightful stripped back version of album opener Here I Am . You can read an interview we did with Adam here .

Since releasing his last studio album ‘ Minor Love ’ , Adam Green has been up to all sorts of mischief, including hanging around and partying far too much with new best mate, Macaulay Culkin . In 2011 Adam Green released the film ‘ The Wrong Ferrari ’ which was shot entirely on iPhone and featured the likes of Peter Doherty, Devandra Banhart, Jeffrey Lewis and Har Mar Superstar just to name a few... you get the idea! Also right about that time he began collaborating with LA based singer, [...]

È nata una nuova coppia, musicalmente parlando almeno: Adam Green and Binki Shapiro . Lui lo conosciamo. Un po' perché era la metà degli indimenticabili Moldy Peaches , un po' per la sua carriera da solista che ci ha comunque regalato emozioni. Lei ha un nome forse meno noto, ma non per questo poco degno di attenzione: accompagnava Fabrizio Moretti (ex Strokes ) e Rodrigo Amarante nei Little Joy , dei quali è stata la frontwoman. Lui viene da New York, lei da Los Angeles. Lui ha 32 anni, lei 27. Il [...]

We weren't expecting it - but now it's out there it seems like the most natural and perfectly matched collaboration we've heard in years. Adam Green and Binki Shapiro's debut album is the sound of lush 60s Folk-Pop brimming with melodic hooks and broken hearts. We caught up with Adam to talk about how it all went down. Bowlegs: You’ve been making records on your lonesome for sometime now – how did this record come about? What came first – the concept or Binki? Adam: I had the [...]

• The-Current - Adam & Binki - Just To Make Me Feel Good

I consume new music in rotations of 12 to 20 tracks—enough to fill a short playlist or occupy a drive. I'll research, read, and download for a few bleary-eyed late nights, and then spend the next week binging on the best tracks. It's a deeply sick habit. I'm a junky always in search of my next musical fix. New songs are always great in the beginning, but after a week when I've leeched all the excitement and freshness out of each song and more or less spoiled the contents with aggressive and repetitive listening, I'm back searching for my [...]

It ultimately presents as bleak a view of life as any of Adam Green's albums, while being extremely sweet about it. Adam Green has been easy to peg as a complete cynic and prankster, based on his habit of setting crass and nihilistic sentiments, not to mention surrealistic riddles, inside of formalist pop songs of different styles. This time the style doesn't lend itself to as obvious a clash with the lyrics. He's teamed up with Binki Shapiro of Little Joy for an album of love-song duets. Again it's an exercise in a particular style of...

Inte är de okända direkt. Adam Green, som utgjorde ena halvan av Moldy Peaches, har på senare år lite lojt croonat sin väg in hos många pophjärtan med sina soloskivor. Binki Shapiro utgör en tredjedel av bandet Little Joy tillsammans med The Strokes-trummisen Fabrizio Moretti. Tillsammans som Adam Green & Binki Shapiro har dom nyligen släppt en självbetitlad skiva och där hittar ni dagens låt Casanova. Dusty Springfield ekande över stället. En refräng som för min del kan få fortsätta hela natten. Samma oskyldighet, uppriktighet och enkelhet som man på 60-talet kom undan med. Att sjunga om förlorad [...]
