Kevin Fox Covers: Paul Simon, Kate Bush, The Eurythmics, etc. (w/ more cellofolk coverage from Ben Sollee, Fiddlers 4, Lindsay Mac et. al.) As we noted in our recent profile of Crooked Still , the addition of the cello to the folk repertoire is relatively recent. Indeed, it would not be entirely wrong to credit founding member Rashaad Eggleston, who has since moved on to become a core member of stringfolk supergroup Fiddlers 4, with broadening these particular boundaries for a huge percentage of the folk audience. But of course the much larger trend towards experimental expansion and genre-blur in the indie world comes into play here, too, making the rock violinist (or the rock [...]

Star Maker Debuts: Turtle Island String Quartet Turtle Island String Quartet: Crossroads (Robert Johnson cover) Turtle Island String Quartet: A Night In Tunisia (Dizzy Gillespie cover) [ purchase ] Yeah, we don't usually post jazz fusion string quartet music, so I suppose these songs are particularly low hanging fruit for this week's theme. But before two-cello pop song covers were all the rage, and the String Quartet Tribute To Every Band Who Ever Sold More Than 50,000 Records trend started to [...]

California Coverfolk, Vol. 6: Oregon Transplants Stephen Malkmus, M. Ward, Tony Furtado, & Darol Anger

Aug 17, 2010, 10:46pm Cover Lay Down
California Coverfolk, Vol. 6: Oregon Transplants Stephen Malkmus, M. Ward, Tony Furtado, & Darol Anger Here's some fun to cap off our Summer 2010 Vacation Coverfolk series: just as we've moved on from California to Oregon, crossing the state line for a final week with friends and family, so did these well-known boundary-pushing artists leave the long, banana-shaped state of their birth to settle north of the border, helping make the "Portland scene" the vibrant hotbed of music it became in the wake of the indie and folk revivals of the post-grunge late nineties. Funk-fusion banjo player and bandleader Tony [...]

ARCTIC MONKEYS - Rhythms del Mundo
Like I mentioned in my last post...it's been a bit chillier than usual out here on the left coast... So wehen I was walking by Recycled Records up on Haight St and spotted the "Rhythms Del Mundo" disc in the window as I waited for a bus, I knew it might hold some Havana-esque heat & hope... Turns out it features members of The Buena Vista Social Club and other Latin musical specialists getting down on modern rawk hits with members of bands like Franz Ferdinand, Arctic Monkeys & U2...
