Sit down and tell me all about it. Or just lay your head on my lap and fall asleep. I'd like that. I got you. It's been a life-changing month hasn't it? It's cold, but we love how it feels alright. I'll sweat it all out, you sweat a lot too. We heart the same, the same black and blue. The perfect match, you and me. That magic is a part of life that we're finally living. So let's rid of all our stories and start new, thankful ones - cause I'm not [...]]]> text/html 2011-08-04T16:00:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3615877/chris-garneau-castle-time/
I was always one looking for exit signs. But when you find someone to cry about it with there's no need to talk in boring rhymes. If you have some indication of how important music is to me and what it feels like inside when I hear music and see the perfect dance, then you know enough. Just always continue to learn the profondity of it, and let it register deeply, absolutely floor you. It's a mutual honor, privilege and nothing really to do with luck, though we are lucky.

During her too-short visit to Los Angeles, globetrotting songstress Keren Ann played a guitar shop, a house party ... and the 1,200-capacity theater at the Luckman Fine Arts Complex on the campus of Cal State Los Angeles. ||| Photos by Chris Molina After her set Saturday night, it's hard to imagine either of those cozy shows could possibly match the warmth and intimacy the 37-year-old singer/guitarist/composer brought to the Luckman. Performing largely acoustic at the front of a bare-bones three-piece, Keren Ann charmed [...]]]> text/html 2011-06-17T18:49:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3528739/video-love-zombies-live-by-chris-garneau/
HD Video by G. I fell in love with Chris Garneau when I saw him live recently. In between songs, he is very soft spoken and then his music is whimsical and his voice is powerful. This particular song you are about to watch is called "Love Zombies." It's about the serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer. I love hearing my first namein a song - especially sung by someone as great as Chris Garneau! Enjoy!

Photos by G. Chris Garneau On June 8, 2011, Baroque Pop singer Chris Garneau opened for Keren Ann at New York's Bowery Ballroom. By the end of his 45 minute set, the singer/songwriter had turned everyone in the venue into fans. In between songs, Garneau was very soft spoken but his songs were very powerful. To me, his voice sounded like a cross between Ray LaMontagne and Jeff Buckley! Though it was 97 degrees in New York, Chris Garneau sang songs about winter [...]]]> text/html 2011-06-07T21:57:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3499688/keren-ann-kicking-off-tour-with-chris-garneau-dates/

Advanced tickets for the Bowery show are still available. Bell House tickets can be purchased tonight at the door. Chris hasn't released anything since his 2009 album on Absolutely Kosher, but Keren is out supporting her new album "101" which is out now...

Premiere: Thieves Like Us Your Love Runs Still - The title track off the bands new EP conjures up feelings of nostalgia with its cut-and-paste beat, paired up with grainy footage of extreme close-ups, and some very disturbed people.

We come to the last of The Wounded Jukebox's Best Songs of 2010 lists. I made an effort to avoid repeating artists on my list in order to include more of the songs that I loved this year. The resulting list is a pretty good representation of the tunes I discovered in 2010.

This is it folks. Not only did I give you 12 days of Christmas MP3's this year, but I also managed an additional 3 days of holiday music. Hope you've enjoyed all these songs.

New York-born Jenny O has been a familiar face on the L.A. scene for a while, having played aside enough local artists to fill a week's worth of bills in Silver Lake. Although there's an unreleased album she recorded last year, Jenny O is finally unveiling her first batch of solo material, the self-produced "Home" EP, out today digitally with a vinyl release forthcoming on Manimal . The first track, "Well, OK Honey," melds her dual sensibilities jazz and Americana irresistably, its doubled vocals offering twice her cherubic charm. Fans who have heard her with [...]]]> text/html 2010-11-21T04:07:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/2987965/watch-this-the-so-so-glos-chris-garneau/
So So Glos "Fred Astaire" - The So So Glos from Matthew Greeley on Vimeo . I'm a sucker for a little old school dancing and the So So Glos give a taste of it with this video for "Fred Astaire." It's quick but still has enough to delight- I, for one, love the capture of the fella's ratty converse wearing feet tapping along- as the top hatted man twirls through the sidewalks of New York. It's a lice stylized contrast to the rushing [...]]]> text/html 2010-11-12T21:02:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/2966793/chris-garneau-dirty-night-clowns-official/
Chris Garneau - Dirty Night Clowns (Official Video) Aptly arriving on Halloween, singer-songwriter Chris Garneau has unveiled this fabulous, slightly creepy video for El Radio single Dirty Night Clowns, which, as Dyson Sound reports , was produced and directed by Ryan Gibeau with the help of 30 others in a Brooklyn warehouse. (Based on its similarities to Josh Ritters recent marionette puppet-starring video for The Curse alone, Id say a collaboration between the pair of BK residents is in order.) Enjoy the clip above and, if you like what [...]]]> text/html 2010-11-11T00:03:06+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/2961910/chris-garneau-dirty-night-clowns-video/
I'll admit it. I'm a blogger who doesn't care that 213,000 people have already seen this music video. I just really love Chris Garneau as an artist and a person. So for the rest of you who haven't seen this beautifully done video, I want to share it with you. A crew of 30 gathered in Greenpoint, Brooklyn to an old, empty warehouse to create this magical marionette puppet filled music video. Chris has had some amazing videos in the past, and this one doesn't let you down. It's more or a short film than just [...]]]> text/html 2010-11-08T18:38:51+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/2955239/chris-garneau-dirty-night-clowns/

It's time for something a little special here on dysonsound. We've all made mixtapes in our life, and if you haven't? Try it out! November is a special month because you have the opportunity to give something back to male health while men around the world grow ridiculous looking hair on their upper lip. And thank god for gracious girlfriends and wives who put up with this and the women who are actually participating (not by growing mustaches hopefully). This month is officially called Movember . Not sure what it's all about? Well, [...]]]>
