  • CD Review: Bahamas - Barchords
    Having just read the No Depression interview with Afie Jurvanen, I thought I'd share the review that I had recently done on his new album.  Jurvanen, who goes by the moniker Bahamas, creates music that radiates a laidback coolness. The Toronto-based musician (who spent several years playing in Feist’s band) blends together blue-eyed soul, home-crafted i […]
  • Be Nice Tanyas!
    The Be Good Tanyas Live at the Vogue Theatre, Vancouver BC February 11, 2012 Concert review by Douglas Heselgrave  We’ve all been stuck in the middle of someone else’s argument or witness to a nasty breakup, and no matter how many times it happens, or how hard you try to ignore it, it doesn’t get any less uncomfortable.  Attending the Be Good Tanyas concert […]
  • The Real Cupid Revealed Thanks to Eilen Jewell
    Valentine's Day is upon us. Its time we revisit Eilen Jewell's Bang Bang Bang from 2011's Queen of the Minor Key. Cupid firing at random...using a sawed-off shot gun...random and even cruel. These sentiments line up more with most people's love experiences than the traditional depiction of Cupid and love. This is a live clip of Bang Bang […]

    Original post on Americana Boogie.  Here's some of the new Americana and roots-type music for the week of February 14th, 2012, otherwise known as Valentine's Day. The artist's names link to their websites and the CD title links go to either Amazon or… […]
  • Too Much, The Magic Boat
    After forty years or so, the concert experience gets a little old even though some of the people who have playing through the ages still can put on a pretty good show. Even so, too many of us have lost interest in the endless hassles of scoring good seats, waiting on long lines and fighting the crowds. In the past we'd be herded through the turnstiles […]
  • Interview: A Discussion with Charlie Parr
    I discovered the music of Charlie Parr by starting with a pair of his albums that were recorded with two of my favorite artists: Glory In The Meeting House (featuring Black Twig Pickers) and Backslider (featuring Trampled By Turtles). After absorbing these two, I moved onto Roustabout, Jubilee (featuring Dave Simonett of TBT), and When The Devil Goes Blind. […]
