The first attempt to record a session with him was at Stereo, but recording in a venue really didn't work out, so this time we decided to take up the kind offer of Phil from PAWS to record it in his bedroom instead. Again [...]
ALLEN STONE, REVA DEVITO ( Mississippi Studios , 3939 N Mississippi) Read our article on Allen Stone . Y LA BAMBA, SEAN FLINN AND THE ROYAL WE, REMEMORY ( Holocene , 1001 SE Morrison) Y La Bamba—a band as gorgeous as they are entertaining—have cleverly avoided the curse of accessibility by being extremely weird: Fuzzy guitars, whimsical percussion, and harmonizing multi-instrumentalists weave in and out of bilingual lyrics regarding heavy spiritual conundrums. Sometimes [...]

Ainda nos lembramos dos primeiros tempos de Afonso Rodrigues, enquanto o seu alter-ego Sean Riley, e os seus Slowriders. Foi apenas em 2007, mas parece que já foi há bem mais tempo que saiu o disco debutante da banda, "Farewell", com a voz aconchegante de Sean Riley e uma música exposta, frágil e cativante. Agora, ao terceiro disco ("It's been a long night" serviu, essencialmente, de cartão de visita a esta passagem pelo Sintra Misty), Sean Riley & The Slowriders continuam a movimentar-se pelas raízes da música norte-americana, mas agora com mais segurança e à-vontade pelo palco. E essa atitude [...]

Zou het er dan toch nog eens van komen? Dat Howe Gelb niet meer in de schaduw van zijn bandleden van Giant Sand hoeft te staan? Want Howe Gelb, wel de voorman van Giant Sand, verscheen zowaar in De Wereld...

mp3: Howe Gelb - "Sno Angel - Spiral" Review by Brian Tucker As part of Record Store Day, Fort Lowell Records participated in a special release that in part also served as an anniversary (their first release came out last year's Record Store Day). FLR's sixth release continues to focus on Tucson , Arizona with local Howe Gelb, whose voice is as smooth as a velvet tapestry on a desert rock formation. Gelb has a few titles, one of which is the "Elder Ambassador of Desert Rock." It's fitting if you think [...]
![Howe Gelb: 4 Door Maverick [mp3]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3379590_lg.jpg)
One part a spoken whisper, another a harmonically sung tune, Howe Gelb 's vocals are near mystical in their folk simplicity. These are vocals that, despite their light playful nature, can send chills down your arms. And, being a master of his trade, Gelb backs his voice with expert performers and well-crafted lyrics. "4 Door Maverick" could be a country song for all it's talk of the 70's Ford, but it ends up a flamenco-influenced folk song courtesy a troupe of gypsies. Yes, that's right. [...]
