After a week away, it was nice to be back in the studio. This week I played several folk-related tunes, a few garage-based ones, and a small handful of indie pop tracks. With the amount of indie-folk I've played of late, I'm thinking we're in store for another dreamy mix and maybe even a garage rock mix in the near future. Andi and I have been on a DIY kick of late and a recent project has been homemade laundry detergent. With the three ingredients displayed in the photo above, along [...]
I've been thinking a lot about the list-making process. Someone recently asked me: What is the purpose of making a list? My initial reaction - because it's fun - is actually somewhat shallow. Is it really? Yeah, probably...somewhat...maybe? But if so, still: Why? In listening to me think out loud about this, my wife commented that she doesn't make lists for fun. Why, then? "To keep myself sane. To make sure I don't forget things I need to do." In other words: To make order out of chaos. To provide structure to an unstructured world. As [...]
Welcome to FWBA's best-of 2011. This has been such a meaningful year in music to me that it's tough to represent in one post. I'm going to be honest, this took me quite a long time. I wanted to do this year justice because personally, it was a total dream: living in San Diego working with some of my favorite artists, going to SXSW and Lollapalooza, seeing Dave Bazan in stranger's living rooms, Feist play a hometown show, saw tune-yards electrified show at Soda Bar clocking in as one of my favorite performances, watching Zach Rogue and my boyfriend playing [...]

Here are the best albums of 2011 as chosen by our panel of experts (Woody, Shirk and I). I'm not a huge fan of ranking albums because my personal rankings are fluid and change depending on the time of year, my mood of the moment, and the album's propensity to get played again and again over time. Because we collaborated on the list, we each had to leave off some of our personal top 502s. In the end, man-to-man mud wrestling prevailed and we compromised. The unanimous top album among all of us was Tamer Animals [...]
Er traden meer dan 70 artiesten op tijdens het vierdaagse Le Guess Who? festival (24 tot en met 27 november in Utrecht). Het was dus onmogelijk om alles te zien. Maar tussen het gevarieerde aanbod zat genoeg interessants om mijn eigen minifestival samen te stellen. Sommige acts vielen al snel af wegens praktische redenen. Zo heb ik de donderdag gemist en ook alle optredens na middernacht op de andere dagen. Ook zijn sommige artiesten al vaker in Nederland geweest zoals Other Lives, Okkervil River (beide op Crossing border) en Low. Ook Bill Callahan draait al bijna [...]
I can't believe it's already that time again- and I'm just mildly envious/sad that I'm not there to be apart of it this time because last year's Invisible Children Holiday Benefit show was pretty much the highlight of my 2010. This year, the guys have totally outdone themselves with TWO nights of music back to back. Check out the lineup below. And get your tickets now because it sold out quick last year- and with a lineup that includes, MOUNTAIN GOATS, FRUIT BATS + VETIVER playing together- it's most definitely going to sell out. I'll be [...]

A List of Noteworthy Lists
There are lots— lots —of end-of-year lists out there right now. I've sifted through so many lists for so many years that the very prospect of ingesting them all has become too tedious to bear. That said, there are a handful that I find to be pretty dependable every year, and that always yield at least a couple of finds for me. I've spent some time cycling through the tens (hundreds) of songs/albums on the lists below and have come away with something worthwhile from all of them. (Related, a couple of weeks [...]

Fruit Bats: 2 x 2 Tickets zu gewinnen
Fledermäusen als Namensgeber zum Trotz liefert Fruit Bats eine Riesenportion sonnigen Folk mit melancholischem Gesang und sanften Gitarren. 78s verlost 2 x 2 Ticket für das Konzert am Freitag im X-tra Podium. Der Nordwesten Amerikas und das Sup-Pop-Label sind das Epizentrum der Folkbewegung. Spätestens seit den Fleet Foxes schwelgt die breite Masse mit Geschmack im schmucken Klang von mehrstimmigen Gesang und sanften Melodien. Fruit Bats sind im Vergleich zu den Trend-Füchsen alte Hasen. Seit knapp einem Jahrzehnt existiert die Band, "Tripper" ist ihr fünftes Album. Der Leitwolf der Gruppe ist [...]
Le Guess Who? 2011: prachtige muziek van Bill Callahan
Er traden meer dan 70 artiesten op tijdens het vierdaagse Le Guess Who? festival (24 tot en met 27 november in Utrecht). Het was dus onmogelijk om alles te zien. Maar tussen het gevarieerde aanbod zat genoeg interessants om mijn eigen minifestival samen te stellen. Sommige acts vielen al snel af wegens praktische redenen. Zo heb ik de donderdag gemist en ook alle optredens na middernacht op de andere dagen. Ook zijn sommige artiesten al vaker in Nederland geweest zoals Other Lives, Okkervil River (beide op Crossing border) en Low. Ook Bill Callahan draait al bijna [...]
Invisible Children Holiday Benefit Show
I can't believe it's already that time again- and I'm just mildly envious/sad that I'm not there to be apart of it this time because last year's Invisible Children Holiday Benefit show was pretty much the highlight of my 2010. This year, the guys have totally outdone themselves with TWO nights of music back to back. Check out the lineup below. And get your tickets now because it sold out quick last year- and with a lineup that includes, MOUNTAIN GOATS, FRUIT BATS + VETIVER playing together- it's most definitely going to sell out. I'll be [...]

Fruit Bats – You're Too Weird
What do you get when you mix the Bee Gees with Flight of the Conchords? Fruit Bats, apparently. Not the Halloweeny kind, but the band from Chicago. With super high-pitched vocals and acoustic guitars, the Fruit Bats really know how to write the catchy throwback-style songs Bret and Jemaine might've written while sitting on their twin beds, staring awkwardly into each other's eyes, channeling the Gibbs brothers. And I mean that as a compliment. Fruit Bats can also get a little rockin', and a little folky-a good combination, if you ask me. But my first impression of the band, the song [...]
