The sporadic New Orleans related posts continue today through Fat Tuesday. See archives for past NOLA features.
Gris Gris is wholly steeped in New Orleans voodoo. It’s all candles, black magic and psychedelic swamp blues led by Dr. John under his late sixties/early seventies guise known as “The Nighttripper.” Genres converge and […]

Are you a fan of John Fahey and/or Bert Jansch? If so Pat Gublar, aka P.G. Six, should be high on your radar in 2007. Gublar’s new album, Slightly Sorry, comes out this month on Drag City and is a folk laden affair sure to appeal to followers of the aforementioned legends. Below is the […]

Our dear friends at Yer Bird will be releasing the next J. Tillman full length, Cancer And Delirium, in April. Details are scarce at the moment, but this release will follow hot on the tails on the much anticipated Yer Bird folk compilation due out in March. Below is an unmastered version of “When […]

I love The Breeders. After the Pixies disbanded it was not Frank Black’s career I followed with great interest, but Kim Deals. Austin’s Yellow Fever sound a bit like Pod era Breeders, and “Katcatcher,” the first song off their self released EP, had it’s hooks in me from the get-go.
If you listen to […]

Much of my time spent with the silver screen this past year has been with documentary films. This is both due to the fact my wife has been working closely with documentary filmmakers here in Los Angeles, and more importantly, there have been some outstanding/groundbreaking works in the documentary film world of late.
This being […]

Last year Filter magazine had a light bulb of an idea getting native Kentucky songwriters/actors Dwight Yoakam and Will Oldham to interview one another. Upon seeing the artwork for the feature I knew I had to scan it for you good folks to see with your own eyes. Awesome, no? Being a […]

Peter, Bjorn And John’s latest full length Writer’s Block finally saw its U.S. release this past Tuesday coupled with a bonus disc of six additional tracks.
Anyone who became entranced with the Stockholm trio’s synth/folk, sixties inspired “Young Folks” single last year is sure to want to check this out in full. In additon to the […]

Welcome to Episode 24 of the podcast edition of The Aquarium Drunkard Show; airing live every Wednesday 2-4 p.m. PST at the Little Radio studios in downtown L.A. As requested, below is the tracklisting order for this week’s podcast.
Show notes: You’ll notice a happy accident with Neko’s voice on “Things That Scare Me”. The vocals […]

I did not have the pleasure of catching Tony Dekker’s Great Lake Swimmers live this past year, but a friend was kind enough to send me a copy of their tour-only Hands In Dirty Ground EP.I have posted on Great Lake Swimmers many times, but for those unfamiliar, imagine a hybrid of an early, pensive […]

You could hardly fault the casual Elephant Six fan for being under the impression The Apples In Stereo had long ago disbanded; after all, five years is a long time for an artist or group to go without a record. But here we are in 2007 and Robert Schneider and company have returned with New […]

I would like nothing more than to share with you the new Bill Callahan track “Diamond Dancer” off the single I received in the mail from Drag City a couple of weeks ago; but being a single release that would entirely defeat the purpose. So, if you’re a Smog fan, go buy that shit. […]

Rickie Lee Jones has just released a new album, The Sermon On Exposition Boulevard, which also marks her first for her new home on New West Records. From the onset of her long career, Jones has been both a musical chameleon and rogue champion of genre exploration.
Exposition Boulevard further cements her reputation as an adventurous […]

Who’s pouring, because this collection deserves a drink. Nashville’s own original psyche-pop weirdo John D. Loudermilk gets the treatment here on this 2006 twenty seven track anthology. Regarded as an accomplished sixties Nashville songwriting fixture, it turns out Loudermilk was as at home with a sitar as a banjo, and left to […]
