in kurz sieht das zunächst so aus: geboren in vallejo, kalifornien im september 1983, high school, college in san diego, später verfolgen einer musikalischen karriere. zu ihren bands gehören indian moon und calico horse. mittlerweile befindet sich emily neveu , zu der der oben genannte steckbrief gehört, aber auch auf solopfaden. dort agiert sie mit piano und stimme und erinnert ungemein an chan marshall, die immer wieder gern zu rate gezogen wird, wenn es intensiven, nie zu hellen gesang zu vergleichen gilt. doch hier stehen die dinge anderes. auch emily singt so bedeckt, dunkel dräuend, wie es die cat [...]
gordonr I omitted a very important resplution from my list below: Tell more stories... Little Man and I have just seen my Mother off at the airport. We exchange hugs and promises of next visits while around us others spin out their own tales of departure and separation with tears and smiles and laughter. I tell her I was glad she had come; she replies with a smile and thanks, followed by a sudden, sharp mugging with the memory of a perceived slight. We then [...]
The neat thing about most bands is how they come to be, that is, what kind of crazy obstacles, shifts, and changes a band (usually) endures before growing comfortable within their own skin. Calico Horse , a band featured a few Thursdays ago via their douzy of a Radiohead cover , has definitely encountered a few Alan Thicke-like growing pains. The vocalist and frontwoman of the band, Amy Neveu, has been around since the band was in diapers and going by the different moniker of The Clock Work Army . They were a [...]

I know it seems like I've quit updating this blog entirely, but I can assure you I haven't. I've just been super busy lately. So as proof I I am offering you this "band to watch" post. If you haven't had a chance to check out Calico Horse you really should. Formerly A Clock Work Army , Calico Horse's new effort is the collaboration of frontwoman Emily Neveu and Pall Jenkins from the Black Heart Procession . Clock Work's debut EP, Catalyst for Change , was quite a success in Southern California last year as they [...]
I've been working on the release posts all month, but with the server switch and other things that we had going on, they never saw the light of day. I'm going to correct that, by presenting you an entire month's worth of releases at once. It pretty much goes without saying, that this is going to be the longest post in IA's history. We'll be back with the regularly scheduled weekly posts this week. Enjoy! Week of June 24 I cannot say enough about the amount of great music out [...]
Besides The Saturday Knights' first full-length, Mingle , which you can stream in its entirety between the KEXP Blog and My Old Kentucky Blog ( see below ), there are plenty of other new releases this week worth squandering your money on in this downfalling economy. Beggars imprint XL has unveiled Get Damaged , an EP of songs by Be Your Own Pet that their parent label, Universal, refused to put out. Other exciting releases include the self-titled debut by Seun Kuti & Egypt 80, new long-players by Love As Laughter and The Watson Twins, a terrific album [...]
ARTIST: After the Gold Rush.008 free mp3s from Sybris, Tilly and the Wall, Weezer, Sigur Ros, Wolf Parade and more! DATE: 06-21-08 WRITER: Mark Ziemke PHOTO: Old-Timer Mcgee I love the Internet. I love that major labels have been shitting themselves for the past 10 years, wondering how mp3s are going to affect sales. I love how late they were to react to the barrage of digital downloads that have been offered, and frankly, made bands popular that would NEVER have been popular if [...]
Here are some great songs that have been filling up my inbox lately: Sally Shapiro - Time to Let Go (CFCF Remix) You had me at Shapiro . I can't help but love anything that comes from her, remix or not. The first thing i thought when i heard this song was "What madonna song does this sound exactly like?" , then Marisa (our Name That Tune expert here at QLP) confirmed it is indeed very "Borderline"...which isn't a bad thing. Early Madonna was the best madonna, imo. [...]
The Devil's blog is in danger of becoming a victim of it's own success as the inbox overflows with unread emails. In an effort to clear the backlog I've spent a few hours ploughing through the hundreds of mails and over the next few days will be posting short sharp introductions to some great bands and artists such as... Maiysha Genre: Progressive / Soul / Pop [...]

Bringing some of the music sent to the 100b HQ mailbox to the attention of the music-loving public has been something on my To Do List for a while. One thing I used to love as a radio DJ - in college (at university to those from the U.K.) and two stations in The Netherlands [...]
From the remnants of A Clock Work Army, comes San Diego's Calico Horse , fronted by Emily Neveu and Pall Jenkins from The Black Heart Procession. They've got a brand new full length debut called Mirror coming out at the end of this month via Banter Records . Piano driven songs like "Father Feed Me" are easy and delightful to the ears and Emily's vocals brings her songwriting to a new maturity. It's poppy but a little darker and moody. Also check out Emily's cover of Radiohead's Idioteque, part of a compilation of [...]

Yo we got lots of new music for you and your fin de semana. YAY! I can't wait. There's no particular theme today, just a buncha stuff to dump onto your iPods and jam with it!

These are our brothers and sisters, and we have the tremendous opportunity and responsibility to respond to our fellow human beings. Give here , here , and here [...]

Their upcoming release, Mirror , will be out June 24th and was produced by Pall Jenkins of Blackheart Procession . Here's a sample of [...]
