Cold War Kids , another one of the blogger-love bands, played a free show at the Apple store mid afternoon. If you haven't seen a free show at the Apple Store, I recommend it, it's got great sound and comfortable seating, and for a grand price of zero dollars you can't complain. It was the Cold War Kids' first performance ever with a sitting down audience, but they still got the mac-geeks grooving in their seats to a powerful soul-rock performance of songs off their 2006 album "Robbers & Cowards". Lead singer Nathan Willett (who totally has [...]

Lewis & Clarke - Before it Beaks You (live on WPRB) It's finally cooling off here in Los Angeles. The air is a little crisp. The wind picks up a bit. The fires in Ventura County make for some depressingly beautiful sunsets. It's time to break out some Lewis & Clarke. Thankfully, this new crop of live material - recorded this summer in Philadelphia. It's one heck of a session -- with four strong tracks. This one - Before it Breaks You - is my favorite, and also happens to be the longest. It stretches out for a solid 10...

Lewis & Clarke released one of my favorite albums of last year, the lush, beautiful folk of Bare Bones and Branches . The band's new album is due later this year, but Lou Rogai (sweetheart that he is) has posted a live radio performance (with 2 new and 2 old songs) on his site . Rogai's voice really stands out from the rest of the folk crowd - he's got the ragged drawl down, but with a kind of introspection and self-awareness that gives the songs another angle. The addition of a choir on the old songs [...]
