This week in NYC, the live music scene calms down a bit with much slimmer pickings than the last few weeks. But there's still some good stuff to sink your teeth into...

Trey Anastasio | photo by whitperson This week in NYC shows, there's some great jazz, including Pat Metheny (Tues @ The Blue Note), Wynton Marsalis (Fri & Sat @ Lincoln Center), and Brad Mehldau and Joshua Redman (Sun @ Bailey Hall). Other than some classic jazz, there's a nice mix of funk, folk, rock, and a ton of live electronic dance music to round out the week. Tuesday night at Bowery Electric, there's the Bernie Worrell Orchestra w/ Wolf , the Erik Deutch Band , and a few [...]

The Muppets movie soundtrack is definitely worth the three-month long wait for the movie release, but we don't have to. Check out the indie darlings' soundtrack now.

Last week, a band celebrated its 33rd anniversary, two guys both named Billy teamed up for a great show in San Fran, one of the contestants in this week's Cover Wars did us the favor of playing Row Jimmy in their encore slot, an HT fave had a great matrix show up on the Live Music Archive and another band played their cover of Radiohead's National Anthem for a second time. To figure out who these bands are, have a listen to Last Week's Sauce. If you don't want to stay on the site for an hour streaming [...]

Marco Benevento & Friends @ Trump Plaza, Atlantic City 10/30/10 Late-Night This past weekend featured three of the best Phish shows I've ever been fortunate enough to witness, but there's one event that got pretty overshadowed by all the madness on the Boardwalk. There were two after-parties booked at the Trump Plaza next door to the Boardwalk Hall where Phish was booked, the first being a Karl Denson after-show following the Friday night sets and the second being a Marco Bevenento & Friends after-show the morning following [...]

The fifth studio album from Good Charlotte is their best mix of music yet.

Good Charlotte's guitar player discusses the band's upcoming fifth studio album, Cardiology.

I'll let you in on a little secret about LIFE ON DRUMS , Billy Martin's "instructional" video for drummers...you don't have to be a drummer to enjoy it. Martin gives lessons that are just as easily applied to everyday life as drumming. The film mixes visually and aurally stunning performance footage with conversations between Martin and his drum teacher Allen Herman in a way that captivates the viewer. Check out this lengthy featurette to see what you can expect from Life On Drums... Billy Martin - LIFE ON DRUMS: Featurette

Back in early 2008, Marco Benevento set-up a Thursday night residency at Sullivan Hall that featured a series of killer combos and collaborations including: Andrew Barr, Billy Martin, Bobby Previte, Brad Barr, DJ Olive, G. Calvin Weston, Reed Mathis, Joe Russo, John Ellis, Kaki King, Marc Friedman, Skerik, Stanton Moore, and Steven Bernstein. Shine A Light Productions captured it all on film and just recently completed a DVD of the events entitled "Marco Benevento (& Friends): Live In NYC: The Sullivan Hall Residency." Here's a little video teaser they put together for the [...]

Aural States sat down with Medeski Martin & Wood while they were in town for the 2009 Traffic Jam Festival to discuss their new three-record series, Radiolarians . AS: I'm curious about the new approach to writing and recording music that you used for Radiolarians . This year, rather than recording a studio album and then touring in support of the album, you wrote the tunes on the road the previous year and then recorded and released a new live album every 4 months. [...]

Over the course of the past two years, Medeski, Martin & Wood has had a very simple philosophy - write, tour and record. The avant-jazz groove-jammers stretched this idea out over the course of three separate tours, where they played the new material that they had just written, recorded and released for their three volume Radiolarians series. With the project now completed, culminating with the release of Radiolarians III in early August, MMW have announced plans to release a comprehensive box set of its material which has been dubbed Radiolarians: The Evolutionary Set. [...]

as i mentioned in part 1, i shot a much longer video clip of MMW during the show which was 4 months ago today. i was almost leaning right up against the stage using my new Kodak when i shot this. so the video is pretty good. it was the beginning of the second set. my entire clip was 14 minutes but YouTube will only allow 10 minutes. so i had to convert it to a different format and edit it before

i had never seen a concert where a band played all NEW music ONLY. until july 12 when i saw Medeski, Martin & Wood ( official / myspace / wiki ) at the Jefferson Center in Roanoke. MMW is more than just a jazz trio. and the Jefferson Center is more than just a concert venue. these two elements added up to a wonderful and memorable musical experience. the Jefferson Center is possibly the

Music has been and remains an obsessive love in my life. But before music, there was baseball. Specifically, my obsession was the New York Yankees . I've been a Yankee fan for over thirty years, and last week, walking into Yankee Stadium for what I believe will be the last time, I couldn't help but reflect a little on a place that has been one of the constants of my life. I went to my first game in June of 1977. I was six years old and had just moved to [...]

In two hours and twenty minutes (I'm writing this shortly after midnight because I have to work all day Tuesday), the 2008 Major League baseball season will start. The first pitch will be thrown by Joe Blanton to whoever is hitting leadoff for the Red Sox tonight (Pedroia? Youkilis?). The Mets play their first game against the Marlins on the 31st. It's all really quite exciting. Opening Day really is unlike any other day of the year. Every team begins with the same record, and fans across the country believe this will be their year. So it is [...]
