|
| Dwele | Call for Availability - 2013 - "a first-class, neo-soul affair" – People Magazine
"Dwele's mesmerizing tenor…can shift from commanding to soothing in nothing flat." – Billboard
"Dwele's focused finesse…cements his status as one of his generation's most worthy soul men and storytellers." – Soul Tracks
Possessing a cool, conversational tenor, an ability to create lush, aquatic grooves and narrative lyrics that flow with the cadence of a rapper's, Detroit's Andwele Gardner has proven himself as a consistent hit maker since selling self-mastered copies of Rize from the trunk of his car back in 1998. Now, over a decade later, the 32-year-old Grammy-nominated singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist plans to cement his reputation as a legacy-building soul provider and storyteller with his fourth major-label release, W.ants. W.orld. W.omen (W.W.W), a collection of songs combining elements of both R&B and hip-hop to express his personal and political views as filtered through the turbulent economy and political climate of today. | | Neko Case | Call for Availability - 2013 - She's not contained to one genre, instead dabbling in punk, country, pop and alternative. Nor is Case contained to one project: She's a solo artist, singer in a pop group (The New Pornographers) and half of a country duo (The Corn Sisters). Case stands out as a singer-songwriter with the ability to reinvent herself on each new record, but tie them together through her unforgettable voice and powerful lyrics. - David Dye, NPR | | Rudresh Mahanthappa | October and November - 2013 - Few musicians share the ability of saxophonist/composer RUDRESH MAHANTHAPPA to embody the expansive possibilities of his music with his culture. Time and again, Mahanthappa has eloquently displayed the capacity to absorb numerous styles and genres of music, combine them with the language of modern jazz, and emerge with a new form still recognizably jazz. What has materialized is a sound that hybridizes progressive jazz and South Indian classical music in a fluid and forward-looking form that reflects Mahanthappa's own experience growing up a second-generation Indian-American. | | VHS or Beta | Call for Availability - 2013 - The band's lineup - guitarists Craig Pfunder and Zeke Buck, bassist Mark Palgy, and drummer Mark Guidry- is the same one that created the group's last outing, the critically praised, Francophile-friendly bouillabaisse of booty-activators known as Le Funk. And while many of the elements that made that record great are present in this one -- finely-honed grooves, supple arrangements, and most of all, the FUNK that is essential to the best music - VHS OR BETA has progressed so far, and in so many directions, that it's practically a different band. | | Tim Mahoney | Call for Availability - 2013 - Tim Mahoney has what is, bar none, one of the best male voice in current Minnesota music. The music is medium rock, with an odd mix of covers thrown in (check out their cover of Marvin Gaye's "Sexual Healing"). Tim's powerful vocals and catchy songs have made him the top drawing performer on the Minneapolis club circuit, as well as an instant hit with an ever expanding Midwest fan base that now includes Chicago, Lawrence, Denver and dozens of points in between. Having sold over 12,000 copies of his first CD, and 15,000 copies of his 2nd, Tim Mahoney has just released his third record, Tim Mahoney Live. | | Beat Connection | Call for Availability - 2013 - Electro-pop quartet Beat Connection has released a new video for "The Palace Garden, 4am," the first single off its debut The Palace Garden LP, out August 6th with Tender Age/Moshi Moshi. Directed by Jon Meyer, the swirling clip utilizes stop-motion photography to simulate the band levitating and spinning in their hometown of Seattle. Topping Hype Machine charts for weeks, "The Palace Garden, 4am" has been praised by Pitchfork, Consequence of Sound and more, with BlackBook raving the song's "immersive, dreamy compositions" and Stereogum commenting on its "chugging, sparkly synthetic." Beat Connection just wrapped up its first North American headlining tour with White Arrows and MMOTHS including its first sold-out NYC show. | | Architects (UK) | Call for Availability - 2013 - Championed by critics, fans and peers alike as one of the finest UK metal/hardcore crossover acts of their generation, Brighton, England quintet Architects return with third album "Hollow Crown", their debut for Century Media Records and the indisputable jewel of the band’s acclaimed and prolific career. Their third album "Hollow Crown" sees this ferociously ambitious quintet become a new beast entire. Offering up a unique assembly of momentously crushing riffs and desperate, urgent fury wrapped coherently around bursts of anthemic melody and progressive timbres, "Hollow Crown" matches abrasive guitar complexity with shimmering subtleties, creating a rich, dynamic soundscape that is truly Architects' own. | | Twin Shadow | Call for Availability - 2013 - Confess is the gorgeous, dynamic follow-up to Twin Shadow's 2010 breakthrough Forget. That first record, co-produced by Grizzly Bear's Chris Taylor and initially released on Taylor's Terrible Records label before getting picked up by 4AD, garnered a lot of praise from the likes of Allmusic ("lush, intricate pop"), Rolling Stone ("fully-formed, haunted and haunting") and Pitchfork, which named it one of the best albums of 2010. Soon after its release, Lewis found himself touring with Florence and the Machine and playing a number of festivals, including Coachella, Sasquatch, Bonarroo and Austin City Limits. |

| ARTIST SNAPSHOT: Pistol Annies
NASHVILLE, TN (AP) -- When the women in Pistol Annies get together, song ideas
just fall out.
They spent two days together recently to do promotional work for their
new album, "Annie Up," and had the makings for eight new song ideas--
practically a whole album -- by the afternoon of the second day.
"Somebody can just say something, we write it in our phone and it
becomes a song," Miranda Lambert said. "Like the other day I said, ...more |
