News and notes from Nashville: New Ke$ha lawsuit, Kings of Leon drummer deemed homophobic, Jack White does Conan , new music from Dee Goodz, Ten out of Tenn & Titus Jones, and a listing of this coming week's best local shows.
It was another beautiful day at Seattle's Bumbershoot Festival, which was surprising considering the weather was supposed to be overcast for most of the weekend. This set the stage for some impressive performances by some of the best up and coming bands from the North West. I had some time to kill before my first act so I wandered over to the Flatstock showcase at the Center Building. If you ever wanted a concert poster by your favorite band by one of the best concert poster designers in the business, [...]
Jay Electronica Crowd ::: Photo by Abbey Simmons Day two of Bumbershoot was all about dualities for us. We bounced back and forth between impassioned sets from folk troubadours such as Billy Bragg, Dave Bazan and Horse Feathers and hip hop sets from Fresh Espresso and Jay Electronica that brought some serious swagger to the [...]

Redwood Plan ::: photo by Josh Lovseth "God, won't you just die already?" - A line of dialogue that exists in approximately 72% of all action movies. I said the same thing when I saw who the headliners were for Day Two of Bumbershoot 2010. Hole? Weezer? This would have been amazing back in 1994. Actually, I [...]
I know almost nothing about The Lonely H. My experiences with this group of long-haired youngsters is pretty much relegated to the undying love my good friends and editors Abbey Simmons and Josh Lovseth have lauded on them over the years. And you know what? That's like a Willy Wonka-style Golden Ticket. This is Grandpa [...]

The Lonely H's music video for "The Singer", off of their third album Concrete Class. In stores now.
If you grew up listening to classic rock and wishing you were born a decade or three earlier, you should head on down to the bar when the Lonely H roll through. They're on a massive tour and there's a 50-50 chance they are coming to your town, if they haven't been there already. They may be young, but they're earning their stripes by logging some serious miles in the van and playing almost every night. Eric Whitman , the [...]
Southern Rock, where have you been? It was just last night that I was discussing with a friend some of the classic rock songs of my youth. He'd been looking for stuff that sounded like Humble Pie, Credence Clearwater Revival and the like. I racked my brain to come up with any current day bands that were doing that sound and came up short. Of course tonight I remembered The Lonely H ! With songs like Diggin' A Hole , this young band (most under 21!) recalls the classic rock tunes that still capture our attention. Slide guitars, [...]

Filed under: Video of the Day Artist: The Lonely H Video: 'The Singer' Highlight: The folk band takes to the stage for an adventure-at-sea play straight out of ' Rushmore .'
Some pretty tasty things in this go 'round of the Licorice Pizza mailbox purge. There's a cover of an old Sweet song and the first single from a garage band super group. I'll get right to my pick of the month, which is "Bow Down and Die," from The Almighty Defenders, the aforementioned supergroup. It's a funny thing because when I first read the email, I thought these guys had potential to suck. Wrong I was. Their debut album isn't due until September, but this preview of the collab between the Black Lips, King Kahn, and Mark [...]

Video: The Lonely H "The Singer" Seattle based rock quartet The Lonely H have released the first music video off of their third album " Concrete Class ".
Our regular readers, which we hope is all of you, are probably aware that I have been slightly MIA over the course of the last ten days or so. And if you have really been paying attention, you are also aware that my absence has been due in large part to my recent move to a new condo in Chicago's wonderful Ukrainian Village neighborhood, just down the street from everyone's favorite venue The Empty Bottle . I had hoped that today's Hodge Podge would be the first column written from the comfort of my new home, but unfortunately the [...]
