From Cropped Out's Facebook : Cropped Out aims to celebrate a select fistful of contemporary musicians, artists, and artisans whom we feel reflect a greater undercurrent of sonic, visual, and conceptual exploration. It is our intention to turn heads toward the talents of those often omitted, overlooked, or cropped out of "the big picture." These are the minds most interesting to us, the minds most capable of emerging from and quickly returning to their lightlessness, if only to be briefly met by a niche appreciation. Cropped Out KY: Cropped Out is a locally [...]
Our Brother is coming back to town! Not really our brother, but he may as well be and we welcome him as if he was. Brother Stephen brings his soothing songs back to town along with IamIs and Dane Waters (of Softcheque and Sapat). This will all go down at the Blackbox in Nulu. Which, if we aren't mistaken, is where an awesome vinyl shindig was a few weeks ago. A cool little place with some great Louisville native artists, should be some good times. [...]

When I heard that Beach House was playing in Nashville, there was no question in my mind that I was going to make the drive. Better yet, Washed Out was slotted to open. We made the drive down, hit a few record shops (Why is it that Nashville has a better Will Oldham, Palace, BPB selection than here?), then headed over the the Mercy Lounge for the show. If you haven't been there, it is the smaller sister venue to the Cannery Ballroom. I'd say there is room [...]
Via WFPK : April 9 – Phantom Family Halo The Phantom Family Halo was formed in 2007 by members of Sapat and The For Carnation. Their debut record "The Legend of Black Six" was released on limited edition vinyl that year. The CD version followed in July 2007 on Cold Sweat Records. In the ensuing year and a half, they toured the United States, sharing bills with Acid Mothers Temple, Guru Guru, Hawkwind, Slint, Dead Meadow, The Entrance Band, Black Mountain, Black Angels and many other [...]
Fuck! I just reported today how The For Carnation is playing their first show in, what, seven years or so at the Speed Museum's Art After Dark event, then I realized that's also the same night that Siltbreeze patriots Blues Control and locals Sapat bust brains across town. OMG MULTITASKING LOL. Ya know, it is possible that The For Carnation will play a lot earlier than the general 10 p.m. start times at Lisa's, so you may be able to do both. But then again, perhaps you might want to show up to the [...]

And it's bullshit! I'm off to a family reunion. I like my family of course - fam hang time is a great style. But ooooh goddammit, I want to be here for this. No doubt that if you're within a 100-mile radius of where I'm currently typing, you probably know about Siltbreeze's Sapat , but I'll go on and give you the skinny on all three acts, in an effort to admonish you to spend your Friday evening - this Friday evening - at Germantown's Swan Dive. Sapat is a local collective [...]
![[Reminder] R. KEENAN LAWLER, OBLISK, and SOFTCHEQUE tonight!](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/1932901_lg.jpg)
It's gonna smoke. Two visionary locals and one band from Detroit to seriously start watching. Doors at 8 p.m., music at 8:30 p.m. or so (give or take a rock and roll curve of 15 minutes). And DCE has a shit-ton of new craft beer. See ya there!
Totally stoked to bring in Detroit's psych/shoegaze/kraut machine Oblisk with visionary freak folk noodler R. Keenan Lawler and Louisville's Softcheque , featuring members of Sapat. This is an all ages show at the funky Derby City Espresso. See you there, dorks! MP3 ::: Oblisk - Beirut R Keenan Lawler - Live on 'Phoning It In,' WELH Providence
I halfway feel like no further elaboration outside the title of this entry is needed. But whatever, this is a music blog, so let me sHaRe mY feeLinGs. I've heard for a couple of years that I need to see Phantom Family Halo . Every group that I booked at The Dame from Louisville told me I need to see these guys based on the type of music and live show I find intriguing. Like, everyone, So, instead of doing either Forecastle or Lebowski Fest this weekend, I opted to spend my money at Lisa's Oak Street [...]
I'd like to be candid with you all before beginning this review of last night's Sir Richard Bishop performance, saying that what I'm providing you right now is a piss poor concert review. It's entirely possible that I might spend the majority of this review discussing how goddamn hot it was instead of the actual music that was performed. But that was the reality of the situation - it was practically impossible to bring you all any quality photos and videos since well over a hundred people were packed into the basement of the Swan Dive, there was [...]
This should be listened to while intoxicated...or at least while dreaming... Tracklisting: 01 - Sapat - Who U With 02 - Sun Arraw - Horse Steppin' 03 - Glenn Branca - Bad Smells 04 - Sonic Youth - She is Not Alone 05 - Organisation - Milk Rock 06 - Wooden Wand - Satya Sai Sweeeetback Plays 'Oxblood Boots' 07 - La Monte Young - Early Tuesday Morning Blues 08 - Psychic Ills - Fingernail Tea [...]
This will be a must see show. Sir Richard Bishop , supporting his latest beastly jam hive The Freak of Araby ( The Decibel Tolls review ), is coming to town with Oaxacan (who also serve as his touring backing band), and local reclusive freak folk collective Sapat . It's all going down at a newish restaurant/music venue The Swan Dive in the up and coming Germantown neighborhood. Save this date, dudes. Sir Richard Bishop with Oaxacan and Sapat Wednesday, June 25, 9 p.m. The Swan Dive 921 [...]
Nashville's Lambchop came to Louisville on Thursday night and absolutely blew away The 930 . Frontman, Kurt Wagner, stayed seated the whole show, but moved the crowd with his deep, rhaspy filled with pauses and drops. He draws constant comparison to Kris Kristofferson, but I would throw Leonard Cohen and Tom Waits (two of my very favorites) on the list. This is a man you want to have a beer with, or at least know someone who had a beer with him. Minus a few corny jokes from his bandmates, the performance was truly moving. I knew [...]
Nashville's Lambchop will be playing at The 930 with Sapat on January 22, 2009. I am really looking forward to this show as it was only a month ago that I first heard their new album, OH (Ohio) , and fell in love with frontman, Kurt Wagner's rhaspy voice on each lyrically-focused track. He draws constant comparison to Kris Kristofferson, but I would throw Leonard Cohen and Tom Waits (two of my very favorites) on the list. Combine Lambchop with local super-group Sapat (who put on a great show at Terrastock) and start [...]
The (epic) Grails , who performed one of the better sets at this years Terrastock , will be playing another incredible show with local kids Sapat (who also played Terrastock) and Vampire Squid on Nov. 12th... Here's a little blurb from my review of that show... In contrast, Grails put on one of the best shows of the weekend, which was hard to do indoors. Oneida had an incredible drummer, but to see the way the drummer from Grails hammered his drum kit, at times using sticks, at [...]
