Contrast Podcast: 1-2-3-4

Oct 7, 2009, 10:00am speed of dark

Long before the Beatles kicked off "She Loves You" with a now-famous count, Lawrence Welk was doing it with "a-one and a-two." A lot of musicians do a count at the beginning of a song, but that isn't necessarily the part of a song you recall. That made finding a contribution for this week's Contrast Podcast #184 theme a bit tricky, and it's bound to lead to a fine mix. The songs I considered were all so beautiful that choosing one was difficult, so I am posting them all here. My choice for [...]

Say a Prayer

Daniel Ahearn , of the electro -acoustic folk rock band Ill Lit , released his solo EP , Pray For Me By Name , this week on Riparian Records. Late in 2007, Daniel was robbed. His electronics, his boom box, keyboards, and pedals—all stolen. As are result, all the songs on his new EP , Pray For Me By Name , were written to be songs that Daniel felt like he could play with just an acoustic guitar and his singing. He's done a good job of it too. [...]

Daniel Ahearn:: Pray for me by name

Jun 23, 2008, 12:20am Parasites & Sycophants

Daniel Ahearn of the band Ill Lit , has a new solo EP, Pray For Me By Name , out on Riparian Records. All the songs on his new EP, Pray For Me By Name , were written to be songs that Daniel felt like he could play with just an acoustic guitar and his singing. The EP was recorded in Malibu and in the Valley and is a grouping of smooth introspection and warm mood with the well working lyrical content concerning left coast life....traffic, obsessions, drugs, lust, pushing life to the edge, and resolving that [...]

Daniel Ahearn Pray For Me By Name

Jun 16, 2008, 1:30pm Press Play and Record

Daniel Ahearn is the dude behind the folktronic pop band ill lit . Dude has a pretty good way with a melody; he's been compared to Beck, and understandably so. Pray For Me By Name is a solo joint, due apparently to the man having his equipment stolen. As a result, the music found on this brief little EP isn't quite like the trippier moments of ill lit; it's more singer/songwriter fare, with occasional alt.country moments, but those are just lazy descriptive categories that mean absolutely nothing. The songs are kind of melancholy, like [...]

Los Angeles Loves... Pray For Me By Name

Jun 11, 2008, 3:46pm la-underground: los angeles loves you

Our first recollection of hearing Daniel Ahearn was one sunny afternoon several years ago driving around Los Angeles listening to KXLU and hearing a live electro-folk band playing. They were good and so we drove a bit more slowly methodically so that we could hear over our old Volvo engine's roar. To make things worse, the station's weak transmitter prevented us from understanding much of what

While Daniel Ahearn's group project, Ill Lit, was one of our earliest posts, they never really enjoyed proper coverage on this site. Now's the time to make up for such an oversight. Ahearn emerges with a solo EP almost two years after Ill Lit's self-released album, Tom Cruise . To be honest, it's not much different from Ill Lit's electro-tinged americana sound. That's a good thing. The difference is Ahearn wrote the songs on Pray for Me By Name so that he felt comfortable playing them alone with an acoustic guitar. Rather than painting himself [...]

Reviews:: Daniel Ahearn Pray For Me By Name

Apr 30, 2008, 11:44am Herohill

When I opened the new Daniel Ahearn record - Pray For Me By Name - I looked at the little sticker attached and thought it said, "of the band Lit." This struck me as odd hype work, as I couldn't imagine anyone seeing that and being swayed. We all love bowling videos, but that's about as for as we go. Luckily it said of ill Lit , which is a whole different kettle 'o fish. Known for their electro, alt country tracks, I was wondering why Daniel stepped into the spotlight with a [...]

[The astute may notice that I have changed layouts a smidge - Benevolence wasn't widget-friendly and when I updated to WP 2.5, it had to go. I miss its turquoise self very much and I'll have to visit Song, By Toad once in awhile to see it again. But this new layout is actually easier to frak around with than Benevolence, so hello to Tarski!] The bleepity blooping shick-a-shick that characterized Ill Lit got me right on board with their 2006 album "Tom Cruise." It's electronic alt-country, perfect for LA, where the man [...]
