MM's 2011 Top Ten Series: No 9 Mrs Mackerel

Dec 24, 2011, 9:44am Mad Mackerel's Blog
MM's 2011 Top Ten Series: No 9 Mrs Mackerel Our final Top Ten selection comes courtesy of the lovely, and ever radiant, Mrs Mackerel. Over to you girl! It's been a great musical year. But such a plethora of riches always presents a problem – what's a girl to choose? Fortunately some fine contributions in the preceding week means most bases are covered. Live gigs, although few and far between this year, have been rich in quality, and particularly finger-picking good on the guitar front. A fine ensemble of gig friends too, thank you. Without further ado, here's my humble opinion. And remember [...]

Preview // Voodoo Music Experience, Day 2: 10.29.2011

Oct 26, 2011, 3:33pm Barryfest
There's undoubtedly too much happening on any given day of Voodoo to talk about everything. Nevertheless, we figured it couldn't hurt to tell you what performances we're excited about. Here's a few thoughts on a national and a local act that we are looking forward to on Saturday. X: Le Carnival Bingo! Parlor, 7:00PM The often dormant American tradition of disquieted musicianship whose minimalism and simplicity is tempered only by artists' forthright and nuanced desperation - epitomized by acts like the Flying Burrito Brothers, Bob Dylan, [...]

Support the independents – Loose Records

Support the independents – Loose Records Given recent events across the UK and particularly in London writing about independent music may be low down the list of many peoples priorities this week, but stating the obvious this is a music blog and although Beat Surrender has no 'Mission Statement ' but part of the blogs 'job' is to promote and support great music - the big players don't need assistance, but Beat Surrender can (I hope) help the independents in some small way, and right now they need some help .

REVIEW: Loomis - Vellocet EP

Aug 4, 2011, 3:58pm Static TV Blog
REVIEW: Loomis - Vellocet EP I may have moved to New York two and a half years ago to try and achieve my life long goals, but I think all my girlfriends that I have had up here can attest that the New Orleanean in me has never left. Though, as I think for many people like myself who were born and raised there around the same time, my memories of New Orleans are kind of skewed. Having gone through a traumatic event like Katrina has my mind playing tricks on me. What was life truly like before the storm musically? I know what my [...]

Mrs Mackerel's TFI Friday (20th May): Hurray For The Riff Raff Live Review

May 20, 2011, 5:55pm Mad Mackerel's Blog
Mrs Mackerel's TFI Friday (20th May): Hurray For The Riff Raff Live Review It's TFI with a difference this week. For one, I've managed to write it on Friday, and for two, it's a live review. And actually for three, it was quite a big trip: me and Jenny Wren, the strong and all too silent sat nav on a 140 mile round trip, winging our way to Brixton on a Thursday night in May. Hurray for the Riff Raff came on stage some time after ten. Tonight, they were a pared down ensemble comprising of brother and sister pairing, performing without their usual backing band.

Hurray For The Riff Raff – UK Tour

Apr 29, 2011, 9:03am Mad Mackerel's Blog
Hurray For The Riff Raff – UK Tour It is fair to say that Hurray For The Riff Raff are a very close second to The Cave Singers in Mrs Mackerel's must see bands for 2011. This came after we fell in love with the band's self-titled UK debut of haunting and melancholy Americana that was released in late March on Loose Music . So join Mrs M in London or check out the rest of the dates for their first UK tour next month, grab the chillingly beautiful Too Much Of A Good Thing below and order the [...]

March Album Round-up

Mar 31, 2011, 4:37pm State Magazine
In a world where we are constantly invited to take interest in a singer's back story (well on X-Factor anyway), the life and times of Alynda Lee Segarra is more interesting than most. Certainly leaving your Bronx home at 17, riding freight trains across the US and joining an outfit called The Dead Man Street Orchestra should be enough to mark you out. Thankfully, so does her music. Hurray For The Riff Raff is a collection taken from her similarly titled band's first two US records and it's every bit as authentically American as [...]

Interview with Alana Stewart

Mar 26, 2011, 12:15am Cougar Microbes
Following her stop over promo tour Cougar Microbes and Alana Stewart discussed UK venues, Rod Stewart covers and "resurrecting" Lauryn Hill. I'm pretty sure this is how it went down: - Cougar Microbes: Who is Alana Stewart? Describe yourself and your music to the uninitiated. - Alana Stewart: I'm a vocalist & lyricist who tries her [...]

Foburg, Day 1: 03.11.2011

Mar 21, 2011, 9:36pm Barryfest
Foburg, Day 1: 03.11.2011 Zorch flattening the competition at Dragon's Den on March 11, 2011 I was worried that the slightly altered format of this year's Foburg Festival would greatly eliminate the wild west-frontier spirit that consumed me as I bounced around Frenchman Street in the spring of 2010. The addition of Bywater venues Hi-Ho Lounge, Siberia, Saturn Bar and AllWays Lounge - not to mention greatest rock club in the city, One Eyed Jacks - was no doubt welcome, but the expanded footprint of the event coupled with an abbreviated nightly schedule offered myriad logistical challenges for those [...]
