We pay tribute today to Charlie Louvin , long-time Grand Old Opry member and elder statesman of Country music, who passed this week after complications from pancreatic cancer. Charlie Louvin's work with his elder brother Ira in the fifties found familiar placement on the Country charts - indeed, until the brothers split up two years before Ira's death in '65, the close harmonies of the brothers Louvin, with their mandolin-guitar accompaniment, were arguably among the most heavenly sounds on the radio. And though he was ever-dismissive about his own contribution to the songs for which he [...]
When it came to our BARE videos, we really did save the best for last. Aaron Stevens (of Goldfinch) and Vicci Martinez's (stepping in last minute for Goldfinch's Grace who had strep throat) performance of Dolly Parton's Jolene laid the desperation of the song bare with their new duets passionate vocal bombast. Plain and simple, [...]

Earlier this year I started tracing back my family tree and I stumbled upon a Parton. Well, that side of my family is a bunch of mountain folk from the Kentucky / Indiana area, which is not far from Tennessee. Dolly Parton happens to be from round yonder so I checked out her family tree on a hunch. Turns out me and Dolly share a grandfather! Sure, we're 5th cousins a couple times removed but in

In the latter quarter of 2010, my first stop at the CMJ Music Marathon in New York City yielded a pleasant serendipity, catching an intimate early afternoon performance from singer-songwriter Addie Brownlee . With her bittersweet, lyrically intriguing songs, Addie caught the ear immediately and had fun doing do in a live setting. It's with great pleasure, then, that we anticipate her next show this coming Wednesday 19th January. [...]

O Ramones vai receber, no ano que vem, prêmio do Grammy pelo conjunto de sua obra. A informação foi divulgada pelos organizadores da premiação na semana passada, no site oficial .

There were two kinds of music I was exposed to growing up. I've talked before about how much of an influence my mom's love of Tom Petty and John Lennon was and still is to this day but something that goes by the wayside when I'm spinning tales of youthful musical discovery is the fact that when I was a wee child, my grandmother's love of country sirens like Patsy Cline and Dolly Parton rubbed off on me more than a little bit. Now, it's not my proudest admission, but I once was forced to serve [...]
Iceland - they know what's what around winter. (The clue is in the name, ja?) So, when the charming Orn says he digs the seasonal mixes in the Scarves & Gloves series ( 1 & 2 here , 3 here) , what better recommendation could there be? This is part 4 of a series which reckons that Christmas is a bit melancholy at its core, but that we kinda embrace that sadness and find some kind of beauty in it. I imagine that it should work rather well on headphones in [...]
Get this one as a gift for yourself and anyone else who loves good music.
Although it's the sort of conversation held in pubs up and down the land, when Gordon publishes the discussion between Tinie Tempah and himself about Dolly Parton it just sounds really, really seedy: "I love everything about Dolly Parton. She has got massive boobs." She certainly has - massive 64-year-old boobs. he admits if he did get the chance to pull her, he'd still grab it with both hands. He said: "She almost became an indirect auntie of mine, which makes it creepy that I'd be willing to go there. [...]

Norah Jones comes out with a delightful sampler of her work with other artists, mastering hip-hop to country to jazz.
We look back at some classic White Stripes performances in anticipation of Conan's debut tonight (which features Jack White)!
As I sit at my desk looking at the inner sleeve of this record, I can't help but think that Emmylou Harris is one of the most beautiful women to ever attach her voice to a song. There she sits, in front of the standard issue photographer's backdrop, wearing jeans and a Danskin and looking as breathtaking as any woman ever photographed. Fast forward to 2009, as she turns 62 years old this coming April 2nd, and you'll see not much has changed over the past 30 years: she remains as stunningly [...]
Getting in the spirit of the holiday season, Vermont-bred badass singer, songwriter and strummer, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, took to the Exit/In stage in Nashville on Halloween. Complete in country regalia (from l-r in the below image they are Billy Ray Cyrus, Dolly Parton, Patsy Cline, Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings) , the band played to a sold out crowd and Potter even led the troupe in a solid cover of Parton's Jolene . Keeping in fine tradition as [...]
