Get ready! On deck and coming soon - Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010 at Radio Radio : Split Lip Rayfield and ENDIANA!
"Bluegrass worthy of being blasted out of the windows of a Plymouth Barracuda with 451 Hemi engine. Metal and jazz like freakouts done acoustically...
Sadly, because their shows were so good, they never got the credit they deserved for their songwriting—time honored themes of bad cars, bad jobs, bad women, loss and longing, taken off the dusty shelves of the old-timey circuit and updated to make sense for those who don’t have shitty farming or mining jobs, but do have shitty jobs at Wal-Mart or Home Depot. They’ve got four part harmonies and wear their big hearts on their greasy sleeves."
Get your tickets now for tonight's Evan Dando show at Radio Radio. Online sales end at 5pm EST today! Tickets will be available at the door starting at 8pm. Vess Ruhtenberg's (The Pieces) new band will open, followed by The Candles (Highly Recommended!) and then an intimate solo performance by Evan Dando. Enjoy $2.50 ice cold PBR's all night. We will have the new My Old Kentucky Blog Tshirts on sale, as well. See you tonight! Special thanks to WTTS Indy Underground for presenting this show. If you have not been following their new indie show, you should. They are playing some great new bands every Monday night.
Ben Sollee’sLearning to Bend was probably the most refreshing and breathtaking debut of 2008. And Daniel Martin Moore’sStray Age was one of the most stunning folk debuts of that year, as well. Now both artists have joined forces to record Dear Companion, thus becoming the follow-up album for both enigmatic artists.
This inspired collaboration has made, what must be, one of the most starkly gorgeous albums you’ll hear this year. The lavish harmonies and interplay between these two unique voices give this album its stylistic thumbprint. Moore’s delicately plucked guitar and breezy croon wraps around Sollee’s unconventional cello and soulful R&B voice, without wrinkle. The songs themselves are cohesive and sweet, but wouldn’t feel at all out of place on a solo effort from either artist. And as was the case on Bend, Sollee’s lyrics are often jarringly honest, like in Only a Song – an intense, brooding track that leaves you to believe Sollee is either painfully self-aware or horrifically cynical. And the sinister swell of the title-track is a reminder that while as romantic and sweet as much of this album may seem, something wicked this way comes.
Jim James, the mastermind behind My Morning Jacket, helms the production on Dear Companion like an old pro. James’ understated approach, leaving the music thin and haunting, allows the collective voice and lyrics of Sollee and Moore to be the focal point throughout. The brash simplicity of these arrangements drive home a deep sense of personal isolation that makes the album feel distant, cold, and familiar.

In case there was ever any doubt, country music is always better when played by genuine Southerners. Lucero kicks up a back-roads dust cloud as the band rollicks through dark love and whiskey-soaked anthems. Singer Ben Nichols has a fatigued, frayed drawl that no amount of dialect coaching can replicate.
