Cass McCombs put out two exceptional albums last year, the somber Wit's End and the more uptempo Humor Risk . I named both top albums in 2011. One of the more interesting singer/songwriters out there, he plays Lincoln Hall Sunday in what should be a very good show. McCombs previewed the song Mystery Mail (from Humor Risk ) at Pitchfork fest in 2010. Check out this video for the 2009 song [...]

Obits (one of the bands you WON'T be seeing tonight) FRIDAY JULY 15 Rick Froberg: The singer/guitarist of the legendary math-rock band Drive Like Jehu (as well as that band's more straightfoward-rocking followup, Hot Snakes), cover-art designer for bands such as Rocket From The Crypt, and all-around musical badass. He's also a guy you're NOT going to see at Johnny Brenda's tonight—because his latest band, Obits , had to cancel its show. (Which we were really, REALLY looking forward to after it was first announced.) To add insult to injury, [...]

After a run of US tours with other luminaries such as The National, The Walkmen, Girls and Band of Horses, Cass McCombs returns to the UK
Catacombs es el cuarto álbum del cantante y compositor californiano Cass McCombs . La actriz norteamericana Karen Black ( El Gran Gatsby , Easy Rider , Nashville ) colabora en esta gran canción llamada Dreams Come True Girl , el nuevo single del disco. * Cass McCombs-Dream Come True Girl (feat. Karen Black)
[ Cass McCombs ] thinks artists should never have to "vouch for their actions", which is reasonable enough. He shies away from interviews because he believes he has the "personality of a wet blanket". Which is surely hogwash. But surely it is OK for a fan that merely feels something in common with your music to wish to discover more about the individual behind it, in a purely innocent, interested way? The music kinda demands it. "The scenario just makes me uncomfortable," says McCombs. "I definitely seek out information about my favourite artists, though I don't [...]
<p>The title of this track isn't an assurance, it's a label. Cass McCombs croons and strums to his "Dreams Come True Girl" with a depth that teenagers are capable of, without the heavy-handed insecurity of youth. The video for this track, however, is a different story. It's not batshit crazy, but the fact that it seems so regular makes it even more bizarre. McCombs surrounded by adolescent skateboarders, with sometimes singer Karen Black traipsing around in the background like a frightening, dark-haired Stevie Nicks. It's surprising how they managed to craft such an unnerving video for such a nice song.</p> [...]
Here's the first video from Cass McCombs 's new album Catacombs (due July 7!) which features Karen Black of Easy Rider fame. (via Aziz is Bored )

Dream Come True Girl Cass McCombs-Harmonia Cass McCombs - Dreams Come True (Featuring Karen Black) The Cass McCombs new album, Catacombs, is out in July but there are a few samples out on the net that are confirming his dreamy pop style is back in full "harmonia" lo fi pleasure. The new video below of the single, Dream Come True Girl, is a perfect way to chill out after a [...]
"Dreams Come True Girl" is from Cass McCombs' forthcoming album Catacombs , out June 8th UK / July 7th US on Domino Records. http://www.myspace.com/cassmcc ombs http://www.cassmccombs.com/ http://dominorecordco.us/

Filmed entirely at the Phoenix Theater in Petaluma, CA, the idea for Cass McCombs ' video for the first single from his forthcoming LP Catacombs [June 8 UK / July 7 US on Domino ] was based on characters from an original screenplay written by McCombs and director Aaron Brown. Brown himself playing a "Demiurge", a supernatural being that controls time and space, as well as the actions of McCombs and Ms. Karen Black . In the words of Aaron Brown, director: [...]
[MP3] Cass McCombs - Dreams Come True Girl (Feat. Karen Black) I have been listening to Cass McCombs a lot lately - and by a lot I mean obsessively. I was given "Dropping The Writ" for the first time last month and since the record has become regular cruising music to and from work. His lush and soothing voice just instantly puts me at ease evoking fantastic imagery. I feel like I'm sitting on a porch next to a lake in the mountains sipping tea when I hear his [...]

Cass McCombs is a working artist whose material has as many faces as there are "fat cities" that he's called home. Think of a parade of troubadours. Some of them are young, fresh-faced and mischievous, weaving fairy tales of innocence and idealism. Others are ragged, weathered poets, who's hearts in contrast are comforted more by religious ballads and bittersweet songs of betrayal. Nevertheless they forge ahead together, singing as one, united, all part of the same parade. Since getting started out west, slumming it up north, working himself like a dog [...]
He's going to be five albums in this year, and Cass McCombs is still finding out ways to stop time with his dreamy popscapes. His latest LP, Catacombs , will be out on Domino Records at the beginning of June, and here's a video for the single. It features the jack of all trades Karen Black, and takes place in a pretty unlikely place: an indoor skate park. Maybe it's an unlikely place, but maybe that makes it the best place. Most videos involving skating involve energetic guitar riffs and forced vocal deliveries, [...]

Cass McCombs interpreta la vida, como el amor, al modo más puro y juvenil sentido que uno pueda imaginar. Se lee en la poesía de sus letras, en la forma en que el sonido de su guitarra se desliza y lo llena todo de ese aroma a deliciosa nostalgia, a regocijo en el dolor propio, ése que actúa...
