  • Keith Murray
    Interview with We Are Scientists’ Keith Murray New York indie rockers by way of Berkley, Calif., We Are Scientists are one of those acts that aren’t afraid to push boundaries and try out different things. One song will be a Fugazi-tinged alt-punk scorcher while another can sound like a mainstream pop hit. They’re currently in the midst of “The Splatter Analysis Tour” with Floridian indie rockers Surfer Blood and Roanake, Va., psych-shoegaze act Eternal Summers. I had a chance to chat with guitarist and vocalist Keith Murray about working with Ash’s Tim Wheeler, America vs. The UK and a special little 7″ vinyl available at their shows. Rob Duguay: On October 1, We Are Scientists will perform at The Sinclair in Cambridge, Mass., as part of “The Splatter Analysis Tour” with Surfer Blood and Eternal Summers. There will be a special joint vinyl that’ll be sold at the show as well. Can you tell us a little about what to expect from the 7″? Keith Murray: “Distillery” was a song we wrote and recorded in the very early stages of writing TV En Français. We spent a day in a studio in London and recorded three or four songs as potential demos. As we kept writing for the album, though, the tone of the record as a whole started to shift, and we didn’t quite feel that the songs we’d already tracked quite fit with the new batch of tunes we were working on. We really loved those songs though, and “Distillery” was our favorite of that batch, so we leapt at the chance to use it for something as cool as a split 7″ with the Surfer Blood gang.

  • Karen Mantler by Karen Mantler
    Karen Mantler by Karen Mantler I was conceived by Carla Bley and Michael Mantler at the Newport Jazz Festival in 1965. Born in 1966, I was immediately swept into the musician's life on the road. After having checked me at the coatroom of the Berlin Jazz Festival, to the horror of the press, my parents realized that I was going to have to learn to play an instrument in order to be useful. But since I was still just a baby and they couldn't leave me alone, they had to bring me on stage with them and keep me under the piano. This is probably why I feel most at home on the stage. In 1971, when I was four, my mother let me have a part in Escalator Over The Hill and the next year I sang on another of her records, Tropic Appetites. By 1977 I had learned to play the glockenspiel, and I joined the Carla Bley Band. I toured Europe and the States with her several times and played on her Musique Mecanique album. After playing at Carnegie Hall in 1980, where I tried to steal the show by pretending to be Carla Bley, my mother fired me, telling me "get your own band". I realized that I was going to have to learn a more complicated instrument. After trying drums, bass, and flute, which I always lost interest in, I settled on the clarinet. I joined my elementary school band and quickly rose to the head of the clarinet section. The band director let me take the first improvised solo in the history of the Phoenicia (a small town near Woodstock, NY) elementary school.
