over the weekend i sat in on the high street lowlifes' recording session at good old (and actually new and improved since the fire) sound of music. jay lindsey, producer.
while the sessions may have been rushed a bit due to lack of ample funds, they made the best of their time. the band comes straight out of the 1930's, with their old time string band sound and throwback wardrobe.
jay at the soundboard, studio A
natheil (love her name) working the saw (apparently the sound comes out behind so that's the best place to set up a mic
then i saw the hotdamns play some new songs at their spot wonderland.
today i reviewed the lightning bug situation's a leaf; a stream. aka brian miller (jolie holland's guitarist). this is yet another great album from 2007, combining a dreamlike textured set of mellow songs a la m ward with spoken word folks sharing memories. lovely.
next up:
the great white jenkins mussel souls
not looking forward to: baby dee safe inside the day
charlie hunter, bobby previte, john medeski altitude (third of a trilogy, and by the first half of disc one it already has the prior two beat. that's not hard though tbh because i dislike dj logic.)
nathaniel mayer and his hilarious hair
some more 2007: nina garcia and jim white (this one completely slipped my mind!)
white blue yellow & clouds
il gato
wayward sway
son of dave
the hotdamns, the mishaps, tournament friday @ rumors
i can't help loving the shoes guy:
and i CANNOT STOP playing charlotte gainsbourg's rendition of "just like a woman" from the i'm not there sndtrk. god i need to see that fucking movie. sometimes it takes an artist's new perspective to spark new life into a song i've always taken for granted. jay says it's about joan baez, and man dylan knows how to cut.
time for SVU!
