Treehouse closed indefinitely; Sowash resigns as booking contact

The Wesley Willis Fiasco - The Bar Is Closed
Click here to view the embedded video. Treehouse booker and reliable dude Kyle Sowash just posted this on The Treehouse's Facebook group page : Treehouse patrons: On Friday, I resigned as the booking contact for the Treehouse for the past 2.5 years due to some really terrible things going on behind the scenes. As a result (of the terrible things happening behind the scenes, not me quitting), I got word on Saturday night that the bar is closed indefinitely. It's a long, sad story I'll [...]

VIDEO: The Motel Beds//Sunfried Dreams

Motel Beds - Sunfried Dreams
...one of the busiest little groups in Dayton these days, The Motel Beds just keep coming up with new ways to blow our minds. Earlier this week, the band unleashed yet another stunning music video, this time for the title track of their stellar new album Sunfried Dreams, and in our humble opinion, it's the [...]

Joel Oliphint's Favorite Albums of 2010

Joel Oliphint's Favorite Albums of 2010 If 2009 was the year of Larry Jon Wilson, 2010 was the year of Bill Fox and the Gibson Bros. I think I listened to Bill Fox's two reissued albums - Shelter from the Smoke and Transit Byzantium - more than anything else. ( Shelter got a deluxe vinyl reissue, and Scat promises a similar treatment for Transit in 2011.) Go get 'em . And working on a story about the Gibson Bros. reunion show back in July occupied my brainspace and held my interest for months. I [...]

Tuesday: Brick Mower @ Bourbon St.

Tuesday: Brick Mower @ Bourbon St. If you haven't already poked around Bandcamp , you definitely should. Tons of really great bands putting their music out there for you to download either for free or for a small fee. I was searching for bands that referenced Fig Dish when I came upon New Jersey's Brick Mower . This trio, in spirit anyways, reminds me of locals The Kyle Sowashes and SPD GVNR in that they sound like stuff I was listening to and [...]

Thursday: forgetters at Circus

forgetters live at bowery ballroom
Had I not stumbled upon Matthew Berlyant's review of the debut double 73 by forgetters on The Big Takeover website last week, I probably would have missed this show. As it was, the mere mention of a new band featured ex- Jawbreaker / Jets to Brazil singer/guitarist Blake Schwarzenbach was enough to make me fire up Google and find out anything and everything I could about forgetters (no "the" and lowercase "f", thank you very much). There's not a lot out there, but I did find some [...]

MP3: The Kyle Sowashes "Blast from the Past" MP3 : Blast From the Past People who know Kyle Sowash of The Kyle Sowashes know that he is a genuide solid dude. Between making records and booking bands in Columbus, he is one of the few people in town that is keeping Columbus a good place for live music on both a local and national level. Anyway Records just released their latest album, Nobdy , and it's some of the band's work. Fans of early Pavement, Superchunk and Archers of Loaf definitely want to get to know [...]

Tonight: Cowtown Round with Sean Gardner, Kyle Sowash, Josh Rea

Tonight: Cowtown Round with Sean Gardner, Kyle Sowash, Josh Rea Jason Quicksall has been hosting the Cowtown Round on Monday nights at Rumba for a while now. It's basically three songwriters on stage together trading songs. This Memorial Day lineup sounds especially good to me: Sean Gardner (Winter Makes Sailors, Melty Melty, Bookmobile, Sowashes blah blah blah), Kyle Sowash ( new record! ) and Josh Rea from Wing & Tusk . (And if you go, wish Sean a happy birthday.)

Friday at Carabar: Smug Brothers (Dayton), Sowashes, Ghost Shirt, Bicentennial Bear MP3: Smug Brothers - Low Like Nothing MP3: Smug Brothers - Build Your Collections All three locals on this bill would be worth venturing out to see separately, so seeing the Kyle Sowashes , Ghost Shirt and Bicentennial Bear play a free show together at Carabar is a no-brainer (esp. if part 1 of Lost Weekend's two-night anniversary extravaganza isn't your thing). Icing on the cake is Dayton's Smug Brothers , fronted by Kyle Melton and featuring Don [...]

Southeast Engine, Frontier Ruckus, The Coke Dares, The Kyle Sowashes - Treehouse

With four bands on a bill, it's more than likely one of them is going to be a dud, or at least have an off night. But the Treehouse was four for four on Friday night. The main event was the release of Athens, Ohio's Southeast Engine newest offering, From the Forest to the Sea . As I mentioned last week, it's a record full of spiritual yearning and self-condemnation, and it's also one of the best albums released so far this year. What struck me most about Southeast Engine's indie-folk live is how well [...]

Album Release Party: The Kyle Sowashes Tonight in Columbus

Album Release Party: The Kyle Sowashes Tonight in Columbus MP3 Cutout Bin MP3 Korea With the exception of the forthcoming debut by Lydia Loveless , there isn't another local release that I've been anticipating more than The Kyle Sowashes ' Yeah Buddy . I was tempted to call Kyle the "everyman of Columbus indie rock" - he plays the part perfectly, from the look (scruffy beard, glasses) to the sounds he creates (think 1991 Chapel Hill, North Carolina). But Kyle is anything but the everyman. Guys like Kyle aren't truly [...]
