As Laura Veirs' July Flame , the follow-up to 2007's Nonesuch-released Saltbreakers, sat in label limbo last summer, the Decemberists' Colin Meloy Tweeted that it was his favorite record of the year and added, "Please pester @nonesuchrecords and tell 'em to PUT IT OUT!" Why they didn't is beyond me. July Flame is a terrific record, heartfelt and magnetic folk that recalls Michigan -era Sufjan Stevens and humble enough to include an ode to legendary session bassist Carole Kaye. It's clever without being quirky, as best shown on "Life is Good Blues," a mournful [...]
The Fresh & Onlys Play Spaceland on Saturday All in all there are a few solid options each night this week including many pre-SXSW shows as bands from Australia and the West Coast head towards Texas. I didn't get out a lot last week but did catch The Wooden Birds (really pretty stuff) and the Clientele (they've improved so much since their first US tour).

I am wearing red tights. You will be able to see me coming all the way down the sidewalk. I am not following you. I am there on my own. When I walk away, you stop and stand under a tree. In one story, I run toward you and the moment never ends. We stay in a place where they believe in eating breakfast, in listening to music outside, in sugar, and where everyone plays poker while showing their cards. In another, the one that actually happens, I walk away. I hear my boots on the sidewalk. They are the [...]

Kicking of the new year, Contra didn't quite knock my socks off on the first listen.

Op zondag 24 januari stond ik op het podium van de bovenzaal in Paradiso tijdens de Korendagen. Dat was een prachtige belevenis, om voor de verandering eens zelf actief met muziek bezig te zijn in plaats van te luisteren. Wij zongen vijf nummers:een Russisch lied (Ej uchniem), een Franse hit (Pour un flirt), een Nederlandse smartlap (Waarom), een Irving Berlin song en To know her is to love her. Een week later trad Laura Veirs met haar band op in dezelfde zaal en mocht ik opnieuw meezingen, samen met de vele andere bezoekers. Even was ik bang dat [...]
Laura Veirs: July Flame Laura Veirs' new CD July Flame was on my shortlist for highly anticipated albums of 2010, based on the strength of two previously available tracks, the delicate "I Can See Your Tracks," and "July Flame," an exquisite slice of folk pop (which can be heard on JeffMix2009.10.25 ) . Both songs lead off the CD, but the magic soon stops with "Sun Is King," the kind of dreary folk song that can make one [...]
re: Playlist #7 Inutile - opuscolo letterario è un mensile autoprodotto che si trova sia in pdf sia su carta: un elegante A3 che piegato diventa più piccolo di una polaroid: da una parte rivista, dall'altra poster.

Finally I took notice... Because I will be honest I never took notice of Laura Veirs . This Portland based singer-songwriter is making waves with her 7th full length album. Yeah that's right she has been chugging along for quite some time. I took a look back at some of her older stuff and it seems she has really come to life on July Flame. Not sure what changed, but the infusion of her love-drenched lyrics and delicate piano/guitar melodies has me feeling like I am walking barefoot in a glorious meadow with unicorns. This album is fresh and [...]

iPad commercial / The Blue Van’s “There Goes My Love”
The first TV spot for Apple's iPad premiered last night at the Oscars. I know a lot of people have already written this device off mainly due to it's similarities to the iPhone / iPod Touch, but I'm still in the "interested" camp. I won't be lining up for this device, but I'd certainly love to get my hands on one. The iPad ad is a fairly simple but well-executed spot that shows off many of the capabilities with some fast-paced editing and angular guitar music (Side note: If you freeze the ad you can see the albums [...]
