Just got back from the Blitzen Trapper/Fleet Floxes show at Bottom of The Hill. Blitzen Trapper delivered, per usual, and Fleet Foxes first out-of-town show made the audience wish their Sub Pop debut was coming out right now and not months from now. Something to look forward to. Oh, heads up, our friends […]

Off The Record is a recurring feature, here on the Drunkard, that marries two of my greatest interests; music and travel. Having a locals perspective when visiting a new locale is the difference between experiencing it through the lens of a tourist and of that of a native.

Drove up to San Francisco yesterday, immediately following White Denim’s performance on my Little Radio show (do see them live), and arrived in the city about 10:15. Got to The Independent for the Broken West/Walkmen show, just as The Walkmen were taking the stage. That boy can play the drums (see above video).
Anyone […]

The new Aquarium Drunkard/Autumn Tone HQ is now located in downtown L.A., on the office side of Little Radio’s operations, aptly entitled, SPACES. Being that it is a converted warehouse, the digs can get (yes, even in Los Angeles) chilly from time to time, but that’s where J. Tillman’s upcoming album, Vacilando Territory Blues, comes […]

As a rule of thumb, I tend to avoid most greatest hits packages. The logic behind this being that if one’s career is such that it **genuinely warrants a “hits” retrospective, than there is most likely a solid record, or three, to peruse on their own. But like any rule, there are exceptions. […]

“Howlin’ Rain make music to beat the steering wheel of your van to, or sing along with while drinking whiskey in the bathtub, on a Saturday night, with your dog.” — Ethan Miller (Howlin’ Rain)
Yeahhh, bring on the rock show. The above quote was taken from the initial Birdman Records press sheet, upon the release […]

Big kudos to the folks at Cinefamily, who have taken over L.A.’s Silent Movie Theater, bringing a tasteful, eclectic batch of films, of every genre and era, to the city. Last night I checked out their screening of Piano Players Rarely Ever Play Together, which documents three generations of New Orleans piano legends […]
