Sometimes We Run For Cover

IN STORES NOW#60: Tim Wheeler & Emmy The Great / "Modern Girl" (Sleater-Kinney)
It was only during the end of the SLEATER-KINNEY's career that I got hooked on the grunge-she-trio. Their 'Woods' LP was one of me faves of 2005; 'Entertain', 'Jumpers', 'What's Mine Is Yours' and of course 'Modern Girl' still get high iPod rotation seven years post their birth. The EMMY THE GREAT has also been a fan of the SK, having covered the girls for the last few years. Now the she-singer has roped in the TIM WHEELER to help her perform a fairy tale like rendition of that 'Modern Girl' [...]

Tim Wheeler degli Ash compie oggi 35 anni. Gli auguri di Soundsblog

Ash - Girl From Mars (UK version)
Gli Ash non avevano ancora sedici anni quando registrarono i loro primi tre demo tape . Era il 1992 e l'anno successivo radunarono il materiale in "Pipe Smokin' Brick": una sorta di best-of delle loro prime incisioni. Nonostante i concerti e la buona accoglienza ricevuta, per iniziare il grande salto dovettero attendere l'intervento di due personaggi-chiave nella loro carriera. Il primo fu il talent scout e discografico Stephen Taverner che, avendo ascoltato uno dei primi tre demo, decise di investire qualche soldo per far uscire il 7" "Jack Names the Planets". Il secondo fu [...]

Top 10 Albums of 2011

Top 10 Albums of 2011 Geographically speaking, I don't think I could be further from Scotland and still be in the UK. You'd never guess that from reading this blog however, as Scottish acts seem to be dominating my tastes for the last few years. 2011 has been no exception, and four albums on this list have their roots firmly planted north of the borders. As well as being a year for Scots, 2011 appears to be the year of the Return To Form. In itself this is a good thing, as recent years have seen more disappointing highly-hy ped albums than good ones, but it means there's a [...]

Sloan, The Rural Alberta Advantage, Ohbijou and Bonjay at The Great Hall in Toronto

Sloan, The Rural Alberta Advantage, Ohbijou and Bonjay at The Great Hall in Toronto Frank Yang It may have sounded like Tuesday night's grand Fucked Up throwdown at The Great Hall was going to be an untoppable finale to the 2011 concert season in Toronto, but remember - that was just the first of a two-night event and if you were going to try and top a recital of one of 20112s best albums (that's David Comes To Life , for the record) then a front-to-back performance of one of the best Canadian albums of the past 15 years is a pretty good [...]

(Holiday!) Video of the Moment (and more!) #661: Emmy the Great and Tim Wheeler

Emmy The Great & Tim Wheeler - Home For The Holidays
In case you didn't know, Emma-Lee Moss (better known as Emmy the Great , pictured above) and Tim Wheeler of Ash are now an item. (Well, they've been one for a while; I kind of guessed something was going on with these videos of Emmy and Tim circulating the internet as early as 2009. Things are going well, judging from a Tweet exchange we had earlier this year. So I am well pleased for those lovebirds! ) So they made a video for their song 'Home for the Holidays'. [...]

Dollars to Pounds: Emmy The Great and Tim Wheeler

Obligatory Holiday Song Post: Emmy The Great & Tim Wheeler – Home For The Holidays

Emmy The Great & Tim Wheeler - Home For The Holidays
It often seems that celebrity couples always release Christmas tracks around Christmas time. Maybe it's a cash grab or maybe it's an easy way to get your product on the radio. I don't know. Some recent examples would be Robbie Williams and Nicole Kidman and Zoey Deschanel and M.Ward (c'mon, they probably fooled around). This particular track comes from two artists I adore and respect. Unbeknownst to me, Emmy The Great has been dating Tim Wheeler (of Ash ) for quite sometime now and so it would only make sense for them to commemorate their [...]

Chromewaves' favourite albums of 2011

Frank Yang Okay, let's get this over with. More than any year in recent memory, 2011 was tough to distill down to a top ten - not because there was a dearth of notable releases, but because there was a glut of them. Plenty of records this year were good to great - from those you'd expect as much from, those who surprised by upping their game and/or those who you'd simply never heard of before - but head-and-shoulders standouts? More of a chore than I expected. But here are ten [...]

Anna Calvi at Lee's Palace in Toronto

Anna Calvi at Lee's Palace in Toronto Frank Yang For the first part of Thursday night, I was - as recounted yesterday - happily seeing my favourite band deliver the best performance of theirs I'd ever seen. So why, in the name of all that's holy, did I leave early? Because of Anna Calvi . The British-Italian artist released one of my favourite records of 2011 (ooh, year-end list spoiler!) in her self-titled debut , but fate seemed determined to keep me from seeing her perform it live. First, her CMW and SXSW showcases - which were legion [...]

Spiritualized offers Sweet release

Spiritualized offers Sweet release Facebook Almost four years on from their last dispatch, Spiritualized has announced that their seventh studio album Sweet Heart Sweet Light will be released on March 19, 2012. It's about the same gap that separated 20082s Songs In A&E and 20032s Amazing Grace , but that delay was compounded by Jason Pierce's near-death experience. This time any extenuating factors in the delay fell into the more decidedly benign category; new labels in both Europe and America, recitals and reissues to mark the 10th anniversary of [...]

emmy the great "cassandra"

emmy the great "cassandra" top of the morning. today, i needed something a little different to listen to considering i have been listening to the same 10-15 records for the past 6 months or so. i happened to stumble upon british songstress emmy the great's sophomore record, virtue . im only about half way through it, but i dig it, and is definitely calming my heavy soul. its poppy in the way that tori amos is poppy, but she doesnt sound anything like her and thats for the better, imo. if you be a fan of the likes of feist, martha [...]

Songs To Learn And Sing – Exlovers, Emmy The Great And Tim Wheeler. Plus Scouse Gits and Action Aid. "Starlight, Starlight" By Exlovers.

They may not be new kids on the block but their debut album ' Moth' is due in Spring next year and promises to be one of our (and hopefully your) major musical highlights in 2012. " Starlight, Starlight" is available as a free download (above) and hints at, rather like an elegantly flaunted stocking top, the promise yet to [...]
