Filed under: News , Awards Kristy Sparow, Getty Images Those " musical history gods " that Justin Vernon so infamously dissed were clearly smiling down on Bon Iver at the 54th Annual Grammy Awards as his group walked away with the Best Alternative Music Album for their self-titled record. Though Vernon declined to perform at Sunday's ceremony and was oh-so-publicly dismissive of the golden gramophone leading up to the [...]

WE'RE ALL FORGIVEN! And who among us can't use a little forgiveness! (On the other hand, look what happened to Gandhi!)
Yim Yames (AKA Jim James of My Morning Jacket), Jay Farrar (Son Volt, Uncle Tupelo), Will Johnson (Centro-matic, South San Gabriel), Anders Parker (Varnaline, Gob Iron) have made a record together called New Multitudes, an "interpretation" of Woody Guthrie's previously unrecorded lyrics. New Multitudes is being released on Rounder Records on February 28th. The band performs Union Transfer on Tuesday, March 13th. Go here for tickets and more information about the show.

I've taken quite a hiatus from "new music" for a few months and I [...]
Diamond Doves high-step over the line between forward thinking indie and ear-pleasing Beatlesian pop. Perhaps better known as the magic makers behind the band Dearland (sans frontman Elvis Perkins), this trio has been hard at work on their debut album, due this spring. (They also played backing horns for My Morning Jacket for their recent concert at Madison Square Garden. No big deal.) Stream the single "Eat Your Heart Out" below.

Yes, this is a still from a Black Dice music video.Whether you're dealing with Black Dice, black metal, or Blue Ivy, 2012 is figuring to be a year filled with dark, rich shades -- none of these half-
There's quite a collection of Americana big dogs at work on this track: Former Uncle Tupelo co-leader and current Son Volt frontman Ja Farrar, My Morning Jacket main man Yim Yames (or, as most of us still know him, Jim James), Centro-matic leader Will Jonson, and Gob Iron guy Anders Parker, as well as the ghost of Woody Guthrie. I'm going to have to add so many tags to this post! Here's the story: Woody Guthrie's daughter Nora invited all these musicians to pick through Guthrie's notebooks of unrecorded songs, the same way Billy Bragg and Wilco did [...]
My Morning Jacket, "Outta My System" find it on Circuital I have to say, it's pretty refreshing to have someone look back on their life of crime and drug abuse gladly. I mean, I'm not endorsing it, but there's something kind of ridiculous about people like, say, Motley Crue talking about how insane and fun their lives of debauchery were and then telling people not do it. But on "Outta My System", a song that sounds a little bit like the Beach Boys when they first wake up [...]
Roughly two and a half years ago we reported that Jay Farrar (Uncle Tupelo/Son Volt), Jim James (MMJ) and Will Johnson (Centro-matic) had headed into the studio to a record a new batch of songs inspired by Woody Guthrie's unrecorded lyrics, a la Billy Bragg and Wilco's amazing Mermaid Avenue records. According to Paste , the trio were personally invited by Guthrie's granddaughter, Nora, to sift through the songwriter's notebooks and scratch pads to gain insight on the artist and his unfinished work. On February 28, the trio will [...]

Happy 2012 live music freaks! Hope you all had a killer 2011 and finished it off with a bang and some good shows! Last week was obviously a busy week for live music fans in the New York metro area, so naturally, the concert calendar slows down a bit this week as we start the new year. But that's not to say there aren't some great shows to hit...
