The blunted trio better known as LANCE HERBSTRONG released their second album, Meth Breakfast , a minute ago. Their third single baths Cary Ann Hearst's tune from True Blood in bass, then splash a bit of AC/DC and Led Zepplin for some added pep. It's below, and by all accounts is a tune you need. More importantly, you need to hear this played loudly. The original tune is a bit sombre, and well twangy. The Herbstrong boys cook the rawness of the it into a meaty dish thick enough to fill [...]
True Romance By Taylor K. Long This Valentine's Day, enjoy this collection of a handful of my favorite "love songs" and songs about love. Whether you are part of a duo or flying solo-remember this piece of advice: I kept asking Clarence why our world seemed to be collapsing and things seemed to be getting so shitty. And he'd say,"That's the way it goes, but don't forget, it goes the other way too." That's the way romance is... Usually, that's the way it goes, but every once in awhile, it goes the other way too. You can download the entire mix, here, or [...]
We all love lists, and we all love sarcasm. Though, I think its important to reflect upon the last year of music, I'm going to do so through the use of a list. It was a fantastic year full of awesome albums, and I'm going to count down a bunch of my favorites, and give you something to listen to while reading. 15.

[Low-quality photos by acidjack] The Charleston, South Carolina musicians Cary Ann Hearst and Michael Trent recently teamed up to combine several disparate recording ideas into a collaboration they call " Shovels & Rope ", which resulted in a record by the same name and a nationwide tour that included a number of dates with The Felice Brothers. This show at the Bell House was one of such opening sets (you can get the Felice Brothers set here ), but Shovels & Rope were given a headliner-length set, and deservedly so. [...]

A profile on NPR's "All Things Considered" recently introduced me to Hayes Carll, country-rock satirist. The title track on Carll's new album, KMAG YOYO (& Other American Stories), is a driving and picaresque tale of a young man's misadventures serving his country. ("KMAG YOYO" is army slang for "Kiss my ass guys, you're on your own.") The NPR piece rightfully compared its style to "

If you're anything like me, your ticker skipped a beat when you saw the name of this tune. A fella's gotta have some serious stones to cover AC/DC, and if that fella in question is a woman, well, color me impressed. Sadly, this isn't a cover of Angus and the boys' much-beloved paean to debauchery, but don't think for a moment that South Carolina's Cary Ann Hearst ain't in possession of some serious stones. Hells Bells has been cherry-picked from Hearst's brand-spankin' new Are You Ready To Die? EP [...]

Happy SXSW week to you and yours. Once again I will not be attending, although I recently wondered if I could have gotten a record label or PR firm to cover my airfare and bar tabs while I whore myself for whatever bands they have in attendance. On the other hand, I harbor a dislike for much "indie" music and can see where it may have ended up as a "Fear & Loathing on 6th Street" type of occasion. "We were somewhere over Louisiana when the drugs began to take hold..." Anyway, as you might guess, my [...]
I spent the better part of the past week in Charleston, SC, and in between trips to Waffle House I managed to catch some live music and get some recommendations on local artists. I left with a strong general appreciation for the city's music scene, but what really captured my heart was Shovels & Rope, the late-'08 record by husband-and-wife (then fiancé-et-fiancée) duo Cary Ann Hearst and
While Sunday is the official last night of the festival -closing out with a special Next Big Nashville edition of Nashville Sunday Night at 3rd and Lindsley - Saturday night is the last real night of showcases, and you have nine to choose from before the official after party at City Hall. My pick of the evening is actually that after party - The Features and Jensen Sportag ? Sign me up. But earlier in the night you have lots of great stuff to choose from - particularly the Lake Fever showcase at [...]
(photos from the Swoon and Tennessee Jane collaboration "Portrait of Silvia Elena" at Honey Space in NYC) Swoon and Tennessee Jane collaborated at Honey Space last week in an attempt to raise awareness of the brutal killing of women in Mexico that has been rampant since the early 1990s. Below is the text from the exhibition, telling the story of Silvia Elena, one of the murdered women in Juarez, Mexico. ::: Romana Morales Huerta bends down to clean her daughter's grave. With patient motions that underscore the habitual nature of her task, she brushes [...]
