keine ahnung, wer sich als werbefritze für die altcountry, americana band bare bones aus denver verdingt. jedenfalls machte er mich misstrauisch. diese retroisierten bilder, der style zwingen mich zum weiterklicken. einzig die gelegenheit, gleich auf der hauptseite ihres webauftritts musik anhören zu können, ließ mich innehalten und nun auch diese notiz schreiben. denn was dem durchaus sympathischen fünfer da gelingt, ist aller ehren wert. die kombination von folkloristischen elementen mit dem auf volle entspannung gepolten angang und einigen sehnigen ausläufern gefällt mir sehr gut. kopf der mannschaft ist ein gewisser blake brown, der eine ganze weile in solo [...]
Denver Colorado based Americana band Bare Bones have released a six-track self-titled EP, the band were formed by Denver music scene veterans Blake Brown (guitar, vocals) and Frieda Stalheim (violin, vocals) after meeting at the art museum where they both work, with some songs ideas developed the pair decided they needed to expand their sound and recruited friends James Yardley (bass), Ben Desoto (drums) and Jordan Wyatt (lap steel, guitars) to complete the line-up and have released a fine debut EP that bodes well for the future - here are three tracks from the EP courtesy of the [...]

Much of Colorado got their first taste of snow this season and it has a lot of people excited about the white stuff. The weather inspires me to make mixtapes, and today is no exception. I will enjoy my snow-day catching up on missed shows, reading and listening to lots and lots of music. For those of you that are at home playing hooky, enjoy, and those of you that had to work, keep truckin'. Winter Watch Mixtape Tracklisting Molly Nilsson-Hey moon!

Bare Bones' self-titled sophmore EP. is a stunning nod to the group's alt- country roots. Vocals are layered over a dripping violin, a weary steel guitar and a locked in rythm section, taking one back to a time that once was. Check out the irresistible Hope & Feather , which gallops along on the back of perfectly judged fiddle and drums and calls to mind The Builders & The Butchers and Elliott Brood , or even the long forgotten (and criminally underrated) British heroes of the hoedown, the mighty Cropdusters . Visit [...]
Photo Credit: Gary Isaacs Last night, I went to a free show featuring local Denver opener Bare Bones and headliner Alberta Cross. I went at the urging of Jessie , who has good tastes and is friends with Bare Bones. It turned out to be a good show; one which I could be inspired to write about both bands. For now, I'll highlight Bare Bones. This was actually my second time seeing the local band. They played a set at UMS that I caught and they were good there as well. It's time [...]
From the ashes of Munly and the Lee Lewis Harlots, the Wheel (Nathaniel Rateliff's backing band) and a little help from Snake Rattle Rattle Snake, comes Bare Bones . Their music resonates like heartache after a night of crying profusely with only a bottle of Stranahan's Whiskey close by in an open field of blanketed by shining stars as the only means of company. Look for them to drop their first demo mid-March which will be available at their shows. Bare Bones will only be doing two shows at SXSW this year. Not [...]

Madeleine Peyroux a sorti en mars dernier un très bel album, Bare Bones , que vous aviez peut-être repéré dans ma liste des sorties incontournables de 2009 . Elle avait sorti en 2005 Half the Perfect World que j'avais beaucoup aimé, et ce nouvel opus est au moins aussi bon, rempli cette fois de 11 chansons écrites par Madeleine (dans ces précédents albums elle faisait beaucoup de reprises, de Cohen, Gainsbourg, Waits, Elliott Smith...) où elle se dévoile. C'est très beau, très propre, oscillant entre jazz et folk, une façon de chanter qui me fait [...]
To enter into the world of jazz is an act of pure treachery whether it's as a listener or an artist. Few genres of music are as haughty and unforgiving to wide-eyed neophytes. It's not that there isn't room in the club for another, just that you really have to try hard to gain a spot. Madeleine Peyroux found hers back in 1996 in a way very common to jazz newcomers – via enormous cult status and a subsequent smash debut album ( Dreamland ). Of course jazz "rules" state that one can [...]
The first time I saw Madeleine Peyroux was at Fez, in New York in 1996, when she released her debut album on Atlantic, Dreamland . I didn't get it. Or maybe I did, but what's probably so is that I simply had no ability to listen to a jazz vocalist back then. But Madeleine Peyroux , with her wonderful albums, Careless Love , Half The Perfect World and this year's Bare Bones , has become one [...]
Expanding on what the LA TIMES calls her "postmodernist coolness", acclaimed singer and songwriter Madeleine Peyroux returns with a new set of smart, sophisticated songs. Once again produced by Larry Klein (Joni Mitchell, Walter Becker of Steely Dan), Bare Bones, hitting stores March 10, heralds Peyroux's growth as a songwriter with co-writing credits on each of the album's eleven tracks. "I'm really happy that I got to write," says Peyroux, "It feels like a new segment, and it's [...]
Soul Distraction is quickly becoming one of the best hard rock acts west of the Rockies. And it is not hard to understand why. With heavy and uplifting chords filled with massive intensity, they are a group that is easy to enjoy. They are the sort of band that unintentionally demands a cult following. Fronted by the illustriously beautiful and immensely talented vocalist, Elsa Faith, they cover every detail it takes to make extremely original music in a scene that is begging for reconstruction. There hasn't been a frontwoman who rocked this hard since Shirley [...]
