John Vanderslice – “Raw Wood”

John Vanderslice – “Raw Wood” John Vanderslice has a reputation of being one of indie-rock's nicest musicians, never hesitant to hang out with fans and discuss anything at all. Usually a smile on his face, Vanderslice's darker cuts can catch some off-guard due to his amiable demeanor. Still, even his most melancholic musings are backed by sprightly arrangements that are lively and bouncy in tone; it provides an enjoyable contrast that gives Vanderslice's music a form of mystique, somewhere between brooding ballads and jumpy pop anthems. The first track revealed off his upcoming album Dagger Beach   shows off that contrast. "Raw Wood" [...]

CHVRCHES and Diana at Canadian Musicfest

CHVRCHES and Diana at Canadian Musicfest Frank Yang I went into this year's Canadian Musicfest with a pretty basic plan - see as little as possible. Okay, that's not really accurate since that would have easily been accomplished by staying home and I was still out four nights in a row, but rather than engage in the club-hopping that the fest usually demands, I opted to choose one thing a night that I was genuinely interested in seeing rather than trek around the city hoping to shake something worthwhile out of the lineup. Wednesday night, that honour went to a show that [...]

The 10 Best New Songs We Heard This Week: Savages, John Vanderslice

SAVAGES - SHE WILL
It's Friday afternoon, which means that we’re counting down to beer o'clock, and amusing ourselves during these long beerless hours by recapping all the best music we heard during the past week. Happily, there's plenty of good stuff to stream — most notably, there's the new Savages song, which is many many kinds of awesome and augurs very well indeed for their debut album. There's also the John Vanderslice "Diamond Dogs" cover that we premiered earlier this week, most excellent remixes of Kendrick Lamar and Phoenix, new songs from Cold Cave and Stephin Merritt, the entire new Flaming Lips album [...]

Last month we published a lengthy interview with John Vanderslice about his David Bowie covers record, wherein he takes on and reinterprets Diamond Dogs in its entirety.

Now, dear readers, you can get in on the action, because we have a track to share with you: "Diamanthunde," which is Vanderslice's reworking of the album's title track.

Eleanor Friedberger leads this week’s batch of concert announcements

Eleanor Friedberger leads this week’s batch of concert announcements Roger Kisby You can probably blame the entire music industry's post-SXSW hangover for this week's roundup of concert announcements being a little late and a little lean. But there were still some. And here they are. While I believe the official status of The Fiery Furnaces is that they're a going concern, it's pretty clear that the burner that they're on is pretty far back. Since they finished touring 20092s presciently-titled I'm Going Away , both Friedberger siblings have busied themselves in solo form. Matthew Friedberger released [...]

Single Serving: John Vanderslice – Raw Wood

Single Serving: John Vanderslice – Raw Wood San Francisco's John Vanderslice has been a busy man recently. After lots and lots of touring in support of his album White Wilderness in 2011, he returned to his Tiny Telephone studio and recorded two full length albums. First, there is Dagger Beach . It's thirteen tracks that John's described as simultaneously fussy and loose (with vocal tracks that were recorded in one take alongside strings that took nine hours to get right). And when he was done with that he recorded a track by track cover of David Bowie's Diamond Dogs LP which John's [...]

Patti Smith at The Queen Elizabeth Theatre in Toronto

Patti Smith at The Queen Elizabeth Theatre in Toronto Frank Yang However you choose to bracket the timeline - the three weeks since Saturday night's show at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre was announced, the two months since her First Thursday performances at the Art Gallery Of Ontario were announced, or the 37 years since her first album Horses was released - I've been remiss in my Patti Smith education. To be clear: as long as I've been a remotely informed music fan, I've known who she was and her importance - you couldn't be an R.E.M. obsessive [...]

Wednesday Music News

Wednesday Music News photo from facebook.com/ninofficial We begin today's news with a mind-fuck of a mash-up that needs to be shared. You may have already come across this thing while surfing the web the last few days -- but some twisted mad scientist has put the vocals from Nine Inch Nails ' "Head Like a Hole" over the bubble-gum pop instrumental for Carly Rae Jepsen 's "Call Me, Maybe". The result? I wish I could tell you. I don't whether I want to dance or throw up. It's horrible. [...]

How to Eat Like Your Favorite Musicians

How to Eat Like Your Favorite Musicians We were rather fascinated to see the recipe for Freddie Mercury's favorite chicken dhansak turn up on the internet recently, courtesy of his onetime personal assistant, who published the secret behind the dish at the late singer's official website . We're not surprised to discover that Mercury was a good cook, nor that his favorite recipe draws on his Parsi heritage — and anyway, the whole thing got us thinking about what some of our other favorite musicians might eat. Cooking is an extension of creativity, after all, and as it turns out, there's a heap of good recipes to [...]

John Vanderslice – “Big Brother” (David Bowie Cover) (Stereogum Premiere)

For reasons presumably unrelated to Davie Bowie's triumphant recent reemergence , the veteran indie singer-songwriter and studio rat John Vanderslice has covered Bowie's stone-classic 1974 album Diamond Dogs in full. Through Kickstarter, Vanderslice is crowdfunding the release of that Diamond Dogs cover, as well as Dagger Beach , his own new album. Vanderslice has already more than tripled his Kickstarter goal, with time left to go, so rest assured that both records will arrive this spring. And below, you can watch Vanderslice's Kickstarter video and download his sleepy, diffuse take on the Diamond [...]

Tips From John Vanderslice's Kickstarter Campaign That's $40,000 Over Goal

John Vanderslice is Kickstarting not one but two album releases , originals on "Dagger Beach" and a cover of David Bowie's album "Diamond Dogs," and he's already gone way over goal. The campaign is a great example of a well-pitched project that focuses on Vanderslice's fans and will probably earn him some new ones.

John Vanderslice's Kickstarter campaign requested $18,500 and he's received pledges of $61,906 as [...]

Q&A: John Vanderslice talks Tiny Telephone’s 15th Anniversary Party

Q&A: John Vanderslice talks Tiny Telephone’s 15th Anniversary Party It’s been 15 years since John Vanderslice opened Tiny Telephone , his indie recording studio where an impressive roster of musicians like Geographer, Magnetic Fields, Mike Watt, Deerhoof, and scores more have recorded albums. What began as a comfortable space to record his own songs has turned into a world-class musical workshop with acclaimed session musicians ( Magik*Magik Orchestra ) and accomplished engineers. To celebrate another quinquennial and his clients, John has invited everyone over to the studio - a veritable museum of vintage mixers, tube amps, and reels of 2” tape - [...]
