After a year that saw Kiwanuka win BBC's Sound of 2012 poll, the Brit quickly took both sides of the ocean by storm with the 702s steeped sound of his debut, Home Again. We caught up with him in the woods of Willie Nelson's ranch (seriously) right before his set at the Heartbreaker Banquet to reflect on the past few months, his rise to fame, and the heroes that have inspired him.
It sounds like the theme this week is big, summery fun. Sure, we're still a couple months away, and there are still plenty or days with a chill in the air, but that doesn't mean that artist's can't start vying for our beach blanket bingo mixtape. She & Him, Portugal The Man, and Jimmy Eat World have the goods, and we also sit down with Michael Kiwanuka, who's Home Again LP was a 2012 favorite. The Weekly Feed [...]

- Frequenze Song - Questa mattina il paesaggio è desolante. Sinceramente non riesco più a capire quanto ci sia di puro nella pioggia. La pioggia dovrebbe lavare le cose, detergere, purificare. Ma se provate a raccogliere dell'acqua piovana e a guardarla dentro un bicchiere.....anzi no, non fatelo, meglio di no. Quando ero piccolo e arrivava la pioggia, il cielo era colorato. Azzurro cupo, toni scuri, viola, grigio vivo. Più guardo il cielo oggi più mi convinco che il [...]
Seattle's Paramount Theater is no stranger to great singers, having set the stage for the likes of Gladys Knight and Frank Sinatra. But when the combination of the Alabama Shakes' frontwoman Brittany Howard and Michael Kiwanuka hit the stage on March 3, it may have seen the most powerful and unique voices in its storied history. Hitting the road following the recent Grammy nominations for their album Boys & Girls , the Alabama Shakes' live sound was as clean as one would expect a Grammy nominated band to sound, so much so that it even [...]

Let's take a brake from all the disco, house, and other electronic dance genres and rest our ears for a few minutes by turning our attention to something a little more soothing. Michael Kiwanuka might seem like a product of the Otis Redding and Bill Withers days, but is in fact a 24 year old singer-songwriter from London/ Uganda. His debut album Home Again includes some of the most touching and beautiful tracks I've heard in [...]
She and Him at Sasquatch 2010 Photo : Drake Lelane ( more ) While it's a little early for the official CPF Summerstage 2013 schedule, a few shows have been announced and/or leaked at this point, including benefits with Ben Howard & Michael Kiwanuka and She & Him . Because I like to keep tabs on these things, I've listed all the Rumsey Playfield and Summerstage shows I know about so far below. Expect the official CPF Summerstage schedule to drop sometime in April. [...]
Today, the Newport Folk Festival , which takes place July 26 - 28 , announced that Jim James will be returning to the festival this summer. As mentioned previously, the festival has been using the trickle method to announce this year's artists. Over the last several days they've announced Michael Kiwanuka , Jason Isbell , Nicki Bluhm & The Gamblers as well as the return of the Spirit Family Reunion who wowed the crowd last year. I recommend getting tickets [...]

Words: Saam Das When it comes to new year tips/ones to watch lists, there are generally three types of onlookers - the ones who eagerly proffer their own tips, ones who just don't care and those that consider such lists as an affront to music. At FADED GLAMOUR , we're very much in the first camp. But before looking forward, we're here to look back at last year's ones to watch . [...]
The Grammy Awards are presented tomorrow, and in light of that I thought I would do my own personal Grammy awards. Honestly, the real Grammy's have become a joke, it's a popularity contest more than giving awards to quality music. It's depressing and frustrating seeing some of my favorite artists go unnoticed, which is why [...]

Over the past few months our friends at Bonnaroo365 have been posting clips of their Hay Bale Sessions in which they had Bonnaroo 2012 performers play a few songs in a quiet setting. We've already pointed you towards Delta Spirit's and Umphrey's McGee's Hay Bale Sessions and today you NEED to check out HT fave Michael Kiwanuka in action. Bonnaroo365 has posted three songs from Kiwanuka's Hay Bale Sessions - I'm Getting Ready, Tell Me A Tale and [...]
A s we near the end of winter we'll all be thinking about long hot summer days, and of course, Newport Folk Festival. It's become the must go event of the summer for many of the music lovers in the northeast, selling out the last few years, and this year quickly selling out on early bird tickets and three day passes. There are still tickets available, but they are being gobbled up pretty quickly, and will soon cease to exist. All of this has been done by the NFF team without any formal spending in marketing, and remarkably without actually [...]
