Words // Scott Pingeton Mass MoCA is becoming a destination known as much for their excellent music programming as world class modern art. Wilco's annual Solid Sound Festival has played a big part in putting the Western Mass museum on the map, but there are plenty of other events throughout the year that are well worth the drive. One of those events that I personally will be happily making the 3 hour trek from Boston for is the FresGrass Festival in late September. You really don't need a reason to visit the Berkshires [...]

We examine the merits of bluegrass covers and find that, in fact, they are finger pickin' good.

By now we've all seen and heard of the AV Club's Undercover series where they have bands cover popular songs ranging from George Michael to R. Kelly. We also know by now that some band's covers work extremely well and others fall pretty flat. Luckily, when Trampled By Turtles stopped by they played a version of Arcade Fire's "Rebellion (Lies)" that made you wonder why this wasn't a bluegrass song to begin with. The band has just released their sixth album, Stars and Satellites , which seems to be just as promising as their ability to [...]

Trampled by Turtles covered Arcade Fire's 'Rebellion (Lies)' for A.V. Undercover 2012

I am going to let you in on a little HearYa secret. Sometimes when we get new music, I will remark to Oz that such and such band's new song is giving me a Chubberoo. A Chubberoo is defined as a boner brought forth by great musical excitement. We're still awaiting word from Webster's if it will be added into this year's dictionary. If nothing else, it is part of our lexicon. For those not in the know The AV Club has a great weekly series called Undercover where they invite bands to come in and [...]

We saw Young The Giant cover R. Kelly's classic, " Ignition (Remix) ," for A.V. Undercover a minute ago. This time, Trampled By Turtles takes on a song from a genre similar to the band's own, Arcade Fire's "Rebellion (Lies)." Featuring some country-inspired flare from the banjo and the fiddle, this cover is definitely an interesting one, but remains pretty faithful to the original, despite the obvious differences.
