Jul 7, 2011, 12:05pm 30 Days Out

Steve Earle and band onstage at Houston's House of Blues. With a career spanning close to four decades, Texas singer/songwriter Steve Earle has grown into quite the renaissance man.

Even though Earle’s appearance at Houston’s House of Blues Wednesday night (7/6) was as a musician and bandleader, evidence of his other interests couldn’t help but creep in. He was backed by a fine band called [...]

Apr 15, 2010, 3:28am MuuMuse

Over five years ago, David Byrne met with Fatboy Slim to discuss a musical endeavor. His goal, initially inspired by the book The Emperor by Ryszard Kapuściński, was to tell the tale of the theatrics of royal life through music. After stumbling on a newspaper clipping written about his soon-to-be protagonist and enlisting some of the industry's greatest vocalists (22 in all!) to help guide her voice, the project would evolve into what became known as Here Lies Love : A concept album, DVD, book, and proposed theater experience based on [...]

A Little Light Music: Coverfolk For Our Longer Days

Mar 10, 2010, 10:34pm Cover Lay Down

These days, by the time I come up again, fully dressed, to kiss them each in turn on my way out the door, their [...]
