Sunday Mix Tape Number 300

Mar 18, 2:11am Swan Fungus
I feel like I should be wearing a little party hat and drinking champagne. This is almost as momentous an occasion as blog post number 3,000. Unfortunately I don't know where to find a little party hat, and there's no champagne in my house. Looks like it's just you and me, anonymous blog reader... It's [...]

JENNIFER O’CONNOR + CHRIS BROKAW @THE BOOTLEG THEATRE

Jan 14, 1:38pm L.A. RECORD
JENNIFER O’CONNOR + CHRIS BROKAW @THE BOOTLEG THEATRE Photos and words by Debi Del Grande One pick and one guitar is all Jennifer O'Connor really needs with that voice of hers. As she sat alone in a chair at The Bootleg Theatre bar singing songs from her new album I Want What You Want , O'Connor's heart was on her sleeve with singles "Swan Song (for Bella)" and "Hidden Hill." O'Connor wasn't alone for too long as partner-in-crime Chris Brokaw (Codeine/Come) strapped on his guitar and sat in a chair next to her. Brokaw opened the show playing some tunes from Stories [...]

Chris Brokaw - Gambler's Ecstasy

Nov 7, 2012, 2:26am The 405
There are a couple of things that you should know about Chris Brokaw: Number one, he has been at this solo music game for 11 years, and so theoretically, he should have his own style of doing things by now. Number two, he absolutely does not. Think of Gambler's Ecstasy as a kind of pendulum, swinging between angry, resigned thoughts and the ponderings of another slow, contemplative persona. It is difficult to decide which mood is preferable, but both are extremely enjoyable. The beginning of Gambler's Ecstasy is an explosive introduction to angry [...]

The xx and Jacques Greene at The Phoenix in Toronto

Jul 30, 2012, 8:29am Chromewaves
The xx and Jacques Greene at The Phoenix in Toronto Frank Yang The arc around The xx's 2009 debut xx was a narratively perfect one, rich with mystery, sex, and drama as the London trio vaulted from obscurity to Mercury and, most prestigiously, a place on my year-end list . And perhaps most crucially for a perfect story, they ended. Or at least went away for a while. Real life differs from stories, however, in that it generally doesn't let you just ride off into the sunset, and so after some deserved downtime [...]

"I Feel Like Nothing". Codeine, When I See The Sun.

May 22, 2012, 6:31am Dots & Dashes
"I Feel Like Nothing". Codeine, When I See The Sun. "I feel like nothing", Stephen Immerwahr deferentially proffers on the standout title track to the Barely Real EP and although NYC dreamweavers Codeine may never have made the seismic splash their featherweight, if stylistically and thematically hefty back catalogue – here remastered – indubitably ought to have, the very release of this here thing intimates a greater cultural relevance than perhaps initially envisaged and with it, a subsequent longevity extended beyond that which they may once have deemed. It's like an artist whose canvases skyrocket in value in the wake of premature demise although quite thankfully, [...]

Chris Brokaw - Interview - Codeine
Chris Brokaw knows how to make an entrance. It’s the week after Christmas, and I am at local watering hole The Plough and Stars, shoulder to shoulder with a hoarde of Brokaw fans waiting for the one time Boston legend to take the stage.  In this town we hate to let go of any rocker who has ever lived on our streets. So even though Brokaw came to us from Ohio and left us for New York, and now Seattle, nobody here holds a grudge. You were once from Boston, you’re always [...]

Geoff Farina: The Wishes Of The Dead

Mar 9, 2012, 1:51pm Violent Success
Geoff Farina: The Wishes Of The Dead Geoff Farina: The Wishes Of The Dead - Geoff Farina is a singer/songwriter from Chicago, IL. You may recognize Farina from the work he did as the frontman of Karate : An indie rock outfit based in Boston that infused elements of jazz and classic rock into a sleek and modern hybrid. His solo work, however, is more of a stripped-down affair comprising of his distinct spoken-word singing style and acoustic guitar. Earlier records incorporated his electric guitar soloing along with the more traditional setup of guitar and voice, but more recent records have him [...]

Huisconcert : Chris Brokaw (voorprogramma : I Do I Do)

Huisconcert : Chris Brokaw (voorprogramma : I Do I Do) Eerder zag ik I Do I Do al eens aan het werk, als voorprogramma voor Sam Amidon , en ik was toen wel gecharmeerd van de muziek. Dat was vrijdagavond nog meer het geval. Intussen heeft Stefaan Decroos een tweede album uit en het maakt zijn set gevarieerder. Net als vorige keer viel Rooftop observatory blues op als toch wel één van de sterkste nummers, en ook het instrumentale Carousel (over het plezier en verlangen naar de draaimolen van de toen driejarige dochter) mag [...]

Great Albums Of The Past: Come – Don’t Ask Don’t Tell

Jun 24, 2010, 7:34am Happy Days Are Here Again
Il famigerato "Don't Ask Don't Tell" (Beggars Banquet, 1994), vetta massima, per molti, della parabola Come. Thalia Zedek mangia rabbia ed afflizione, poggiando la voce su musiche contratte da tinte nere, sparpagliate fra blues e dramma incombente. L'incipit, "Finish Line", è un'invocazione luttuosa ed incazzata, "Let's Get Lost" vive di orge sonore immerse in reiterazioni [...]

Come -Car
Chris Brokaw y Thalia Zedek siguen haciendo sus cosillas por separado, y molan bastante, pero nada se puede comparar al rock áspero de Come. Uno de mis grupos preferidos hace unos años, y que ahora vuelve a sonar en mi reproductor con asiduidad. Aquí una canción que apareció en un recopilatorio con fines benéficos en 1995. Esta vez completamos con otra canción, "Cars" que define otra faceta de su sonido, menos dramática, menos amable, más Come: [...]
