was für eine stimme, die die süffigen songs vorträgt, die band aus brooklyn hat trotz aller annahmen keine sängerin am start, irreführend das hohe organ, das angenehme, das sonntägliche, ein sieben track werk steht am startblock, "the life and times of rosa lee", ohne vertrag wieder einmal, ein jammer, echt: the library - wish i knew the library - banjo song the library - nothing to lose neu auf bo'weavil ist das album "into [...]

[Birthday greetings go out today to songbird Nanci Griffith — now on to ways you can work off the holiday weekend hangover ...] July's free residencies bring some new flavors to the Eastside clubs: Australian transplant Andy Clockwise unleashes his biting, boisterous bar rock at Spaceland, where his track "Everybody's in a Band" ought to resonate with the locals. ...
