Oh yeah, Bonnaroo ! That four-day camping-and-music festival that you'd, like, totally go to—if only it wasn't in Tennessee, it didn't cost $224 (plus fees) for a full pass, you couldn't see most of the bands at your own leisurely pace whenever they come through town, and you weren't too busy talking about why you weren't going to Coachella and All Tomorrow's Parties . Well, now you can add Philadelphia's own Amos Lee , Man Man , and Chiddy Bang to the list of performing acts you'd check [...]

Back in 2002, the large-scale music festival landscape in the United States was virtually nonexistent. So when Superfly Presents and AC Entertainment announced plans for a multi-day, jam-friendly fest, named after an Creole word they found in the title of an old Dr. John album, to take place in southeastern Tennessee, who knew if it would make it to year two? Well, as we all know, the initial Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival was a overwhelming success, which quickly cemented itself as the premier destination fest in the country, by offering a diverse selection of music, comedy and [...]

Oof. That'll take a little bit of the wind out of your sails. Just yesterday, we were congratulating Philly's own Amos Lee —whose latest LP, Mission Bell , debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Top 200 chart . (As his label, Blue Note Records , mentioned in a press release, Mission Bell "earn[ed] the Philadelphia-born singer-songwriter the highest chart position and best sales week of his career.") Coincidentally, it was only a couple of weeks ago that we chortled a bit while posting a link to an article [...]
Philadephia crooner Amos Lee has the good fortune to land his first #1 album on the Billboard Top 200 this week, with his fourth LP Mission Bell . That said, with only 40,000 copies sold out of the gate, Lee also has the misfortune of charting the worst sales week for a #1 record, thus breaking Cake's record low from only two weeks ago. So far no one is doing much of anything to keep 2011 from going down as the Year That Finally Killed Off The Album. See the rest [...]
Enjoying the view from the top of the world Finally, the rest of the world has acknowledged what fans of the Philly-based singer-songwriter have been posting in online forums and comments sections since well before his latest album dropped on January 25th: "AMOS LEE IS 1000% AWESOME!," "HE WRITES AMAZING, INSPIRATIONAL MUSIC!," and "OMG I
Iron & Wine top this week's countdown of the top selling albums at Grimey's New & Preloved Music in Nashville.
Well it looks like Cake didn't get to hold onto their dubious record for very long. Just two weeks! Now Amos Lee holds the title for the lowest-selling No. 1 with only 40,000 copies . Craziness. 1. Amos Lee - "Mission Bell" - 40,000 (debut) 2. Iron and Wine - "Kiss Each Other Clean" - 39,000 (debut) 3. Nicki Minaj - "Pink Friday" - 38,000 (up 35%) 4. "2011 Grammy Nominees" - 38,000 (debut) 5. Bruno Mars - "Doo-Wops & Hooligans" - 33,000 (down [...]
Combined between the Moodawg (who is taking a sabbatical of epic proportions from this blog) and myself, Amos Lee is probably the artist we've listened to the most who hasn't appeared on these pages. With a discography full of mellow jams that slightly tiptoe the overly sappy line, Amos Lee is great mood music and even better thinking music. Amos is definitely an artist that you either love or hate, either you embrace the cheesiness like Bobby from the Goofy Movie , or you're terrified at knowledge of our slightly suspect taste of music. His newest album dropped today, [...]

Poor Keanu Reeves. He'll never play a character that's better than Ted Theodore Logan (well maybe Neo ... maybe), he spends his life being stalked by cameras, and even with all his big movie star money, all he has for lunch is a dumb sandwich. No wonder he's so sad. In a popular series of photos , we see Reeves sitting on a bench, resting his wrists on his knees with a look of utter dejection on his face. In his hand is a piece of sandwich. The next photo depicts Reeves looking at the piece [...]
