John Vanderslice performs "I'll Never Live Up To You" w/ Melodie Knight at The Rock Shop, Brooklyn
John Vanderslice performs "I'll Never Live Up To You" w/ Melodie Knight at The Rock Shop, Brooklyn from BlearyEyedBrooklyn.com on Vimeo . A John Vanderslice concert is always an authentic communal experience. John often spends time to talk directly and candidly to the audience and performs his very personal songs in a manner to which his fans can relate. That is to say that he's a performer without an ounce of pretense. On Friday night at packed Rock Shop , John added another dimension to the fan-friendly atmosphere [...]

Skeletons – People (2011)

Skeletons in "More Than the One Thing"
Skeletons' new album, People, continues their rich mash-up of freak-folk and prog-rock, all while remaining separate from other contemporaries like Timber Timbre, Man Man, and Bruce Peninsula. People explores fuzzy narratives with fictional characters as idiosyncratic as the five-piece's bustling sound, with producer Rusty Santos masterfully keeping Skeletons' hypersensitive ambition in check.

John Vanderslice: May 12, 2011 Mercury Lounge - FLAC and MP3 Downloads + Streaming Songs

John Vanderslice: May 12, 2011 Mercury Lounge - FLAC and MP3 Downloads + Streaming Songs [Photos courtesy of Elizabeth Weinberg. See her outstanding photography here ] John Vanderslice has been another steady favorite of this site (one of his performances from back in October appeared in our Top 25 Concert Moments of 2010 ) and that status is well-earned through his universally strong performances, outstanding songwriting, and engaging rapport with his crowds. Those qualities were all on display during this recent show at the Mercury Lounge , an epic 90+ minute performance that showed off some stripped-down versions of songs from his 2011 release, [...]

Tonight's Concert Pick: John Vanderslice at Johnny Brenda's

Tonight's Concert Pick: John Vanderslice at Johnny Brenda's If Edith Wharton's macabre novella Ethan Frome were to be made into a movie, John Vanderslice and Minna Choi (of Magik*Magik Orchestra) would score it. Actually, someone already made the movie—but the soundtrack surely isn't as fitting as Vanderslice's latest album, White Wilderness , would have been. The album—released in January—is a departure from Vanderslice's normal recording style; Wilderness feels like driving down a desolate dirt road on a New England winter night, with no signs of life in sight and your eyes playing tricks with the shadows on the bare trees. Even [...]

Damien Jurado & John Vanderslice (and fans) played Mercury Lounge (Rock Shop tonight)

Damien Jurado & John Vanderslice (and fans) played Mercury Lounge (Rock Shop tonight) by Andrew Frisicano & Jake Forney Damien Jurado & John Vanderslice @ Mercury Lounge ( photo by Steven Marsh ) Damien Jurado and John Vanderslice started their two-night NYC run at Mercury Lounge on Thursday (5/12).

The Elected elect to run again

The Elected elect to run again Lauren Dukoff Only the most optimistic of souls think we'll ever hear new material from Rilo Kiley ; aside from rumours of a b-sides/rarities compilation, it would seem that 20072s Under The Blacklight - on which they already sounded disinterested - will be the final word for the Los Angeles pop outfit. And while frontwoman Jenny Lewis has already established a pretty successful solo ( and duo ) career, former partner Blake Sennett is returning to active duty by turning his former side-project The Elected - [...]

Damien Jurado & John Vanderslice on tour, in NYC now

Damien Jurado & John Vanderslice on tour, in NYC now Damien Jurado @ a BV Day Party @ SXSW ( more by Amanda Hatfield ) "For the most part, 95 percent of my songs are fictitious," says Jurado. But he does conceive his material much the way a novelist would, with dialogue, towns, characters. Many of his tracks are named after places -- "Arkansas," "Kansas City" and "Wallingford" (a Seattle neighborhood) on Saint Bartlett. "I just need a setting, a place to put the story," he says. "I do not write short stories, but I do write short stories. [...]

The Bay Bridged Presents: John Vanderslice and The Magik*Magik Orchestra perform White Wilderness

The Bay Bridged Presents: John Vanderslice and The Magik*Magik Orchestra perform White Wilderness Last year, John Vanderslice, Minna Choi and nineteen members of the Magik*Magik Orchestra spent three days in the studio, capturing live recordings of JV's latest songs with Choi's orchestral arrangements. The approach might have been outside Vanderslice's studio wizard comfort zone, but the resulting album, White Wilderness , is wholly engaging, a vital, unique addition to one of indie rock-pop's most consistent discographies. On June 17, Vanderslice and Magik*Magik reunite for a one-time-only live performance of White Wilderness the way it was recorded, with a thirty-piece orchestra and choir. The show, at the [...]

Weeping Tile celebrate celebration of '90s CanRock

Weeping Tile celebrate celebration of '90s CanRock Graham Kennedy Canadian music circa 2011 is doing pretty great; more plentiful, creative and respected at home and abroad than ever before. No doubt sometime in the not too distant future, someone will write a book about this 21st century musical renaissance that (mostly) put an end to having Bryan Adams and Celine Dion as our national ambassadors of song. But this golden age didn't just happen, and the crucial decade that laid the foundation for today was documented by local scribes Michael Barclay , Jason Schneider and Ian AD Jack [...]

After 10 years as a solo artist, John Vanderslice wanders into White Wilderness

John Vanderslice - White Wilderness (album stream)

John Vanderslice - White Wilderness (album stream) John Vanderslice (born May 22, 1967 in Gainesville, Florida) is an American musician and songwriter. Previously a member of the band Mk Ultra, he now records and performs as a solo artist. In 2000, Vanderslice released his first solo album, Mass Suicide Occult Figurines, and briefly gained some national media attention for the single "Bill Gates Must Die" after concocting a hoax in which Microsoft supposedly threatened legal action over the song; Vanderslice then however had trouble manufacturing the CD because the artwork resembled that of a Windows installation disc, and at least one manufacturer was [...]

John Vanderslice, "Overcoat"

John Vanderslice and the Magik*Magik Orchestra "Overcoat"
I sort of missed out on John Vanderslice's last album. It wasn't his fault, by any means. I just sort of let it slip past me in the cultural jetstream. His new one is White Wilderness and from the first song, well, it's very John Vanderslice. And that's a great thing. More about the record: "John Vanderslice's latest album, White Wilderness , was an ambitious undertaking. For starters, the entire record was captured live in two days at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley, Calif. He also [...]
