The 78 Project – Justin Townes Earle, Rosanne Cash, Amy LaVere

May 20, 3:00pm Beat Surrender

Just in case your not clued into to this thought I'd post a few videos featuring a trio of great artists from The 78 Project. "The 78 Project is a documentary and recording journey inspired by Alan Lomax and his quest to capture music where it lived throughout the early 20th century. Our project brings the spirit of his work into the present as we pair breakthrough musicians with the songs and the fascinating recording technology of the past. With just one microphone, one authentic 1930′s PRESTO direct-to-disc recorder, and one blank lacquer [...]

The Wandering - Go On Now, You Can't Stay Here

Mar 28, 4:56pm Direct Current

North Mississippi All-Stars guitarist Luther Dickinson is the creative catalyst behind The Wandering , a new roots music and Americana band featuring a quartet of fine female singers and instrumentalists: Shannon McNally (guitar), Amy LaVere (bass), Valerie June (banjo), and Sharde Thomas (drums). Recorded in just three days at Dickinson's Mississippi studio, debut album Go On Now, You Can't Stay Here (May 8) delivers its mostly traditional blues and country covers with a raw, disheveled energy, the women trading off vocals as they lay down a loose flurry of acoustic backing with [...]

Amy LaVere @ World Café Live (3/16)

Mar 19, 2:47pm WQHS-The Blog

Last Friday evening, singer/songwriter Amy LaVere played the World Café Live in Philadelphia with her band, opening for headliner Rich Robinson of the Black Crowes. For those who are unfamiliar with LaVere, she is easily recognizable, not only from her rough and powerful Americana sound, but also from the large upright bass she wields in front of the microphone. Though it's a little uncommon for the frontman (or woman) of a band to play such a visually obstructive instrument, LaVere's skills on the bass made it both a visual pleasure as well as an energetically charged performance.

TVD Recommends: Amy LaVere at Mercy Lounge, 3/1

Feb 28, 2:01pm The Vinyl District

Crossing Border 2011: St. Vincent, Pinkunoizu, Amy LaVere en Jennifer Egan

Nov 25, 2011, 4:27am Ketelmuziek

Dit jaar was het lastig kiezen tussen schrijvers en muzikanten op Crossing Border . Het aanbod zag er gevarieerd uit, maar op één avond kun je slechts een handvol optredens bijwonen. Uiteindelijk heb ik vooral gekozen voor concerten van minder bekende artiesten (met uitzondering van Spinvis en Gavin Friday). Op vrijdagavond startte ik in de Cuatro tent waar Henk (van Hallo Venray) en Melle (van John Dear Mowing Club) aanstekelijke americana speelden, ondersteund door een pittige ritmesectie. Een goed begin. Daarna was ik bij Laura Marling die met een prima band optrad. Na een paar nummers (mooi [...]

TVD Vinyl Giveaway: Amy LaVere's Stranger Me

Sep 21, 2011, 12:20pm The Vinyl District

Tender and sweet, yet pale and dissonant, Amy LaVere is a singer that has a wonderful voice for songs that are beautiful, but are often somber and sorrowful. Such emotion is certainly reflected in her latest album, Stranger Me , whose title track you can give a listen.

Tonight in Music: Kitchen's Floor, Amy LaVere, Mitten

Sep 15, 2011, 1:49pm End Hits

KITCHEN'S FLOOR, FAT HISTORY MONTH, PACIFIC CITY NIGHTLIFE VISION BAND, FUZZY CLOAKS ( East End , 203 SE Grand) Your fridge is empty and leaking, causing the linoleum to curl at the seams of the walls. But you don't have the cash or the willpower to do anything about it. It reeks, and it's depressing, so you wander aimlessly until you pass by Fred Meyer and decide to steal some Mars bars for lunch. They bust you and lock you up for a few, but at least they're feeding you and it doesn't smell like shit. Kitchen's Floor—all [...]

Sep 1, 2011, 1:52pm Buzz Bands

Amy LaVere may look familiar if you've noticed her acting in films such as "Walk the Line" and "Hustle and Flow." However, her most charming method of telling a story is through her Americana-pop. The singer-songwriter from Memphis, Tenn., follows up her album "Anchors & Anvil" (produced by the late Jim Dickinson) with "Stranger Me," a record full of disarming anti-love songs that capture her ability to further explore textures and juxtaposition. Produced by Craig Silvey, who took part in mixing Arcade Fire's "The Suburbs," her latest collection of songs are elegantly dissonant with some songs paired with upbeat [...]
