It's been two and a half years since Sara Bareilles released her last fantastic record, Kaleidoscope Heart. Now she's got a great new single, "Brave," and is challenging herself to be just that by touring solo. The "Brave Enough Tour" challenges Sara to play not only alone on stage, but without the support of an [...] The post Show Review: Sara Bareilles at Slim's, 05/13/2013 appeared first on Spinning Platters .

Oh hey, it's the video for Sara Bareilles ' very good single "Brave" ! The track — her first taken from her upcoming LP The Blessed Unrest — has a big singalong hook and an inspirational be-your-best-self message, so fittingly, the accompanying clip is nice and sunny: "Normal people" dance like total goons in various locales (a gym, a shopping mall, a bus stop, a library). The bravest thing about the video, though, is that Bareilles is wearing a black-and-white polka dot blouse on top of black-and-white pants that are covered in cursive writing. Truly courageous. And [...]

D33J and Slayron open. ► Just the hard stuff a Club Nokia, where Motorhead , Anvil and Nik Kai rock it. ► Sara Bareilles has a new album on the way July 16; her solo tour previewing "Blessed Unrest" stops at the sold-out El [...]

Hey! It's the 10th birthday of the iTunes Store, and Apple has very helpfully put up a sort of timeline going back through the store's 10-year history, with all kinds of nifty trivia about what songs have performed well ( The Black Eyed Peas !) and what artists got an early start on iTunes (a lot of them!), and it's a nice opportunity to reflect upon huge-selling songs and albums past, especially from a few years ago when things were, well, a little bit darker. (We're talking Hoobastank 's "The Reason" being the third-best-selling song of 2004-level darkness.) [...]
Sara Bareilles fans, prepare for your kaleidoscope hearts to skip a beat or two, as the queen of radio-friendly piano pop has returned with brand new single "Brave." The song was co-penned by fun. 's Jack Antanoff , and as such, doesn't sound dissimilar from the Grammy-winning band's anthem-like hits (or, for that matter, frontman Nate Ruess ' duet with Pink , "Just Give Me A Reason" ). "Brave" hits iTunes on April 23, and serves as the first offering from Bareilles' third LP The Blessed Unrest , which [...]

A chance encounter with Asheville bluegrass quintet Town Mountain and their twangy, countrified cover of I'm On Fire at this weekend's Joe Val Bluegrass Festival - a dark and yet surprisingly charming version of the Bruce Springsteen classic song that chugs along like a train through the psyche - reminded me how deeply this particular classic is embedded in our national songbook. And a check back at our own archives confirms it: in the last twelve months alone, we've posted no less than four separate covers of the song, from Shakey Graves ' bedraggled [...]
Yesterday I played hooky from Church to work on some school assignments and of course I ended up drafting several blog posts. I was in the midst or writing this one when I was called away to lunch with my family and of course I forgot to post it! So here you go: Today's featured [...]

Not long before the major-label landscape collapsed in a heap, only to morph into a crud formation of reissue-happy conglomerates, Garrison Starr signed with Geffen. It was 1997, and if ignorance truly is bliss, the 22-year-old singer/songwriter from Hernando, Miss., couldn’t have been happier. Those 15 years feel like a lifetime ago for an older, [...]
![Jon McLaughlin announces fall 'So Solo' tour; new album Promising Promises out now [Video]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4460576_lg.jpg)
Singer-songwriter Jon McLaughlin will hit the road this fall for his headlining So Solo Tour . The tour kicks off on October 6, 2012 in Ames, IA and wraps on October 28th in Madison, WI. Jon McLaughlin's new album Promising Promises (Razor & Tie) was released earlier this year and features the single, "Summer Is Over," with Sara Bareilles - watch the video below, here on Band Weblogs . The song was selected by [...]
First of all, anyone that samples the angelic vocals of Sara Bareilles is on my team. The Good Husbands have done it and now up and coming Brazilian artist Josbi has done it. Josbi is new to The Eargazm, but from what we can tell, he could easily stick around. At the young age of seventeen he is both a rapper and producer. He sent this my way a few hours ago and It's definitely worth a listen. His newest track Uncharted is upbeat and perfect for chillin' by the pool. He also sent over a video to go along [...]

Seth MacFarlane will be performing with the John Wilson Orchestra at The Royal Albert Hall on August 27th as part of the BBC Proms Multi-Emmy-winning Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane will release his debut album on Decca/Universal on August 20th 2012. Entitled Music Is Better Than Words , the album sees MacFarlane singing some of the hidden gems of the '40s and '50s big band era and features duets with [...]
I discovered Greg Laswell when I was a music-enthused college blog surfer, back in 2008 (see my first GL track below...it is beautiful in every sense of the word). Well now Greg Laswell, the massively talented musician, singer, producer, and dog-biscuit producer, is back with his 5th studio album "The Landline". I want to pause and point out the rare statement that "5th studio album" is on today's music blogosphere. As someone who has many-a friend within the industry. The feet of creating 5 studio albums is just baffling in today's music ecosystem, so congrats to Greg on that note. [...]
Greg Laswell’s pop-driven, poignant songwriting is such that he has earned play in several TV shows and movies (Grey's Anatomy , True Blood , My Sister's Keeper , Dollhouse ). Now with his fifth full-length record, Landline , he continues his tradition of writing stellar tunes that embody great songwriting- they’re catchy, but not too much so, they have lyrical depth, skilled yet simple arrangements, and abound with beautiful melodies. Laswell's style embodies somewhat of a combination between the melancholia of Stephin Merritt (the Magnetic Fields), or perhaps the pop sensibility of David Gray. [...]
No offense to Adam Lambert 's debut last week, but John Mayer' s 219k+ debut for his latest, " Born and Raised " is what a number one position should look like, not 75K, sorry. Out of Mayer's 219,000 units sold 147,000 were digital albums. This is the second biggest one week sales total so far in 2012, trailing only Adele's post-Grammy week total of 176,000 units. It is also Mayer's third chart-topping album and second straight, following 20092s " Battle Studies. " Coincidentally, Adam Lambert's [...]
John Mayer can pop a bottle over the fact that the singer-songwriter's Born And Raised has become his third chart-topping LP. Mayer's first album in three years debuts atop the Billboard Top 200 on the strength of 219,000 copies sold, and sends last week's #1, Adam Lambert 's Trespassing (22,000), tumbling down to #11. Still, that's better than Lambert's buddy Kris Allen fared — the former American Idol [...]
