Heather Smith is force behind the beautiful sounds of Bone & Bell . She is back by a solid band consisting of Ryan Farnham (drums- formerly of Catfish Haven), Rick Roberts (bass, keys) and Jason Tuller (guitar, bass). The band released their debut ep last year and it can be downloaded on their for free. They are currently planning to release their debut LP this Spring. The band recently appeared on Rooftop Chicago. You can catch Bone & Bell at Schubas on Feb. 14th with Talkdemonic and Cafe Le Bon.

For an artist I was so keen on last year, this new cut from BELL had completely slipped my radar. The new track; part pop, part Rn'B and part synth pop, manages to be down right erratic while transiently soothing. It's excitingly fragmented and seems to find interest in another idea almost as soon as it's finished with the last one. But more than anything, it's a damn good pop song; catchy as hell and a welcome return.
Хорошая поп-песня всегда строится на контрасте, и никогда не узнаешь, какая из половинок используемой формулы сотрётся, а какая — пройдёт с тобой через долгие годы. Я не слышал эту песню Weezer ещё, наверное, со средней школы, и помню « Buddy Holly » бодрым поп-панк хитом, под который было круто отрываться, поставив песню на весь дом. Теперь, времена изменились, и Ольга Белл за три с лишним минуты не только показывает ту грустную нотку, на которую я бы никогда не обратил внимания раньше, но и делает это талантливо, с невероятной лёгкостью. Странно, но именно в таком виде я всегда и [...]

Vienna Ditto are a 3 piece self described Voodoo Sci-Fi Blues band from Reading, Oxford and London, comprising Hatty Taylor on vocals, Nigel Firth on guitar and Laptop, Scott Lawrence on Drums and Laptop. They started off writing wacky little tunes on a laptop, quite badly. This was largely on Nigel's boat but also in Hatty's bedroom, with duvets and stuff hanging on the walls to try make it sound all professional. The first tune was called 'Long Way Down'. [via last.fm] The group has returned with a stunning single release officially coming out on [...]

So there was this thing on facebook today where I was asked to find out the number one song from the week I was born. I already knew the answer, because it's ALWAYS been a song related to my birthdate. My parents had pretty decent taste in music, and I've always credited our drives to [...]

Belle & Sebastian, "Wrapped Up In Books"
Para começar o ano de 2012 numa atmosfera calma, com óptima companhia e após uma noitada valente, nada como capturar os sonhos outonais e intimistas dos escoceses Belle & Sebastian. Não fui buscar nada recente da banda, ou seja, nada do último álbum 'Write About Love' nem nada dos seus lúdicos e por vezes tortuosos singles. Queria mesmo ouvir algo mais do passado e penso que "There's Too

I've become a bit of an Applications, or apps, nut recently. There are some pretty amazing music making, and discovery apps out there. Soundcloud and Spotify lead the way in the sharing and discovery department, but there are many others with a unique and specific approach which help fine-tuned music geeks and those looking for [...]
Luke Roberts is certainly an interesting man, one who has spent many of his years travelling across The United States surrounding himself amongst the influences of the southern folk and delta blues of his homeland after running away from home at a young age. Those adventures and influences have culminated in Roberts producing, with the help of Kyle Spence of Harvey Milk, an album filled with tales of his life on the road. Big Bells and Dime Songs is an album which delivers simplistic songs expressing the many scenarios faced by Roberts [...]
