"Porque detrás de los discos, las canciones, el arte y todo lo que implique crear... siempre hay historias de encuentros, desencuentros, relaciones idílicas y otras no tanto. Por eso, y porque en el fondo, siempre es interesante o divertido conocer que hay detrás de la música que oímos, WeCanBeHonest lanza una nueva sección: WeCanBeLoved, es nuestra excusa para abrir una ventana al lado más íntimo de algunos nombres de la escena indie, pop y artística en general. En WCBL encontrarán artículos sobre el lado más romántico de WeCanBeHonest. Esta semana comenzamos con la historia de Jason Pierce. A ver qué [...]

Solitude, like silence, is golden, but in music it doesn't always yield gold and platinum rewards. If you're used to being part of a group, and fans are accustomed to seeing you that way, too, going solo can be risky. Even if you manage to scrounge up a hit or three on your own, Peter Cetera and Steve Perry style, chances are you'll still end up crouching in the shadow of your former band, Peter Cetera, and Steve Perry style. There's commercial -- an sometimes creative -- safety in numbers. That might be why Chrissie Hynde has [...]

By Jimmy Blake July 1, 2012 The morning after whatever side of the fence you sat on the night before. The final day may have been in the wake of some of the weekend’s most revered acts but this worked in its favor as the pressure was lifted from artists across the site. This led to a busy line-up that had the potential to be a logistical nightmare (some resorting to neon highlighters!), and offered smaller acts adequate exposure with mixed results. Ligers [...]

My mama didn't raise no fools. Well, maybe she did (if you're reading this, Mom, just kidding), but I wasn't one of them. I wouldn't jump off a bridge just because everyone else was doing it. I mean, who would? Okay, I know there are some people out there who are born followers, and would do ridiculous things like jump from a highly elevated point just because their friends are, but I'm not one of them. Still, Richard Ashcroft -- formerly of the Verve, sometimes solo, and recently of RPA & The United Nations [...]

Built around a sample from the Stones tune "The Last Time", this is one of the best "radio-pop" songs I have ever heard.

Richard Ashcroft’s intimate acoustic set in Boston on Thursday night was an eye-opener for me, on several levels. I was probably the only person there not all that familiar with Ashcroft's solo career, nor his heady days as lead singer and songwriter for The Verve - a well-loved band (especially in the UK) with a rather volatile past, having split up after three of their four albums. I don’t know if I was expecting an arrogant front man, or maybe a British aloofness, but I was definitely not expecting a warm, deeply spiritual and introspective songwriter on solo acoustic [...]

I'm scrambling at the day job and in life to get ready for my trip to Scotland in a few weeks, so I've been letting some things fall to the wayside.  Bad me I know. But I'm trying to keep on top of it as best I can.  Hence this weekly brain-purge, which this time includes: Big Pauper, Beyond My Means Big Pauper is a Portland-based musician/artist/producer who blends electronic music with hip

Richard Ashcroft made his triumphant return to New York a day after releasing his latest solo effort, RPA and the United Nations of Sound. The crowd were held enthralled by Ashcroft as he played the first of only two US shows. Ashcroft was last around three years ago with The Verve but this was a [...]
