2011 was another year of musical discovery for me. Clocking in highest on the discovery meter were San Francisco's Girls ; but right up there with Girls were two bands that can't technically qualify for my best of 2011 album list: Delta Spirit and Titus Andronicus . Their latest albums - History from Below and The Monitor (respectively) - were both released in 2010, but I didn't hear them until this year. Overall, when I think of 2011, these three [...]

Greg Brown, "On Records the Sound Just Fades Away" (1982) get it on One Night Who in god's name is Greg Brown? Hell if I know. His wikipedia page states that he is signed to little Red House Records, a label I respect, and that 25 years ago he recorded a song cycle to complement William Blake's Songs of Innocence and Experience, a project so pretentious-sounding that it might be fabulous. The truth is, [...]

I've been completely floored – I mean profoundly impacted – by Greg Brown's Freak Flag . From the first notes of "Someday House" to the last delicate notes of "Tenderhearted Child", the album flows with beauty and wisdom and grace, all delivered in Greg's low-low-lowdown baritone. He's always been one of a kind, this folk singing troubadour from southeast Iowa. Now in his early 60's, he's managed to take a look at the world around him and write some of the most heartfelt and genuine songs around. Whether it's singing of love for a [...]

Looks like 5-10 is going to mean spending BIG BUCKS for The Duke. You've got The Felice Brothers, Ben Sollee, Priscilla Ahn, Okkervil River and now Greg Brown. Greg is my all-time favorite singer-songwriter. His new record - Freak Flag - will be released by Yep Roc and includes his long-time musical buddy Bo Ramsey. Can't wait for this one.
This album review comes from Sam over at the wonderous-yet-under-appreciate d Middle Class White Noise blog. Subscribe to his blog and follow him on Twitter . No Seriously, do it. Anaïs Mitchell's Hadestown came out over a year ago, so this might seem redundant, but the album seemed to fly entirely under the radar. Considering it boasts a guest list that includes an indie darling like Bon Iver 's Justin Vernon, it's a little surprising. Considering how gorgeous and unique her sound is, as well as the breadth and success of this project, it's almost [...]

Greg Brown: Dream On (Live) Purchase Dream On is a cynical song, suggesting that it is in vain that we hope for true love, a peaceful world, and politicians who will respond to the needs of the people. Of course, the comedic quality of the lyrics blunts the edge of this theme. Although I'm an optimist in my private family life, I have to admit that I am cynical most of the time when it comes to overall social [...]

Greg Brown: You Might As Well Go To Sleep [ purchase ] Eliza Gilkyson: Sleeper (orig. Greg Brown) [ purchase ] As a chronicler of the human condition, Greg Brown is well-known for a particular emotional depth and wonder-at-the-world attitude which rests heavily on concrete, often wry imagery. He's strong in every life-stage, too, from death to parenthood, from hormone-crazed lust to love's end - and his deep signature growl only frames the journey [...]

Bill Morrissey and Greg Brown : Memphis, Tennessee [ purchase ] In 1993, Greg Brown and Bill Morrissey were big names in folk music, so the news that they had done an album together was big news. Friend of Mine has some traditional songs, songs by folk artists old a new, and some ringers, like this one, originally by Chuck Berry. But try finding more versions of this song. There are simply too many. Memphis, Tennessee has been done in country, punk, rockabilly, and rock versions. Tom Jones, Elvis Presley, and [...]

It is the custom, here on Star Maker, to end the week with a multi-song post. In a week that has emphasized traditional music, I could hardly do otherwise.

"I always wished I could paint, but I really can't. My sisters Constie and Zoe got that gene. So, I made a painting here- of one kind." - Pieta before a live performance of "Over You" I'm awoken by the flash and rumbles of the first spring storm. 5:55 AM floods into my retinas rinsing recent dreams into faint images. In my head there's music- like every morning- a score played over the final scenes of my sleeping film I'll soon forget. I roll on to my back and look at the [...]
