Music Award Winners Music Award Winners Rock Breakthrough Act: Benji’s Our 2019 Breakthrough Act’s first EP came out four years ago, but the RI community is finally starting to take notice. Much like religious minorities seeking liberty, founders Maryssa Morse Philip Geronimo came to PVD in 2014 from LA. Their music reminds me of surfy Pixies mixed with early 2000s Franz Ferdinand. Catch the Benji’s on April 16 at the News Cafe. – JB Rock Live Act: The Silks What else is there to say about these local heavyweights and previous winners? They’re probably known best for the guitar pyrotechnics of Tyler-James Kelley, but this band hasn’t gotten where they are by dragging dead weight. Uncle Sam Jodrey on drums, Jonas Parmelee on bass and Johnny Trama on rhythm and lead guitar bring it all together beautifully. Folks in the Boston area have now seen the lSilks’ Swampy, bluesy rock ‘n’ roll that takes no prisoners. – JB Rock — Favorite Female Vocalist: Tai Awolaju (Boo City) Tai Awolaju is the backbone of Boo City along with guitarist Andrew Moon Bain. Her show-stealing voice keeps the band’s diverse mix of soul, rock and reggae moving in the right direction. Throw in a dynamic and commanding stage presence, and this Motif award comes as no surprise to those already hip to Boo City. – JB Favorite Punk Act: The McGunks Previous winners of the award back in 2012, The McGunks have been tearing through New England since 2003 with their brand of rollicking singalongs about barrooms and beers in the vein of Social D and Dropkick Murphys. Check out their music live at the Midway Cafe in Jamaica Plain on May 4. – JB Favorite Pop Punk Act: The Callouts Pop punk is not a lost art, and The Callouts prove it in convincing fashion. Their second album, give up, just out in January, shows no signs of a sophomore slump, with hook machines like “Amelia” and “Reverse Clooney.” Catch The Callouts at Rob Duguay’s birthday bash April 19 at the News Cafe. – JB Favorite Cover Band: Sybil Disobedience It’s just another year in the life of Sybil Disobedience. I hope they have commissioned a trophy case for all these awards, because this is Sybil’s fourth Motif trophy in a row, an impressive achievement. Sybil is the go-to cover band that goes from top 40 to classic rock, and keeps the party going all over RI. – JB Favorite Post Punk Act: Hope Anchor It’s the second win in a row in this category for Hope Anchor, who played a killer set at last year’s Motif Music awards. The crew made up of Paul Everett, Terry Linehan, Ray Memery, Robbie Shaggs and Paul Myers was described by Marc Clarkin as “indie rock that reminds me of some descendant of Echo & the Bunnymen and Wire.” And with maybe the hardest-reppin’ RI band name out there, what’s not to like? – JB Favorite Female Singer / Songwriter: Amanda Salemi Amanda Salemi’s words and music are the secret sauce that gives Consuelo’s Revenge its signature eclectic folk gypsy punk vibe. Listen to the beautiful “Teri’s Song” or the barnstorming “The Palatine Light” to see what I mean. While CR has another album on the way, Salemi is reportedly working on her first solo album, which likely means more Motif awards to come. You can see Salemi in the flesh at one of Rob Duguay’s turnt up Birthday Benefit Bashes, April 19 at the News Café. motifri.com/amanda- salemi-profile/ – JB Favorite House Band: Nick-A-Nee’s House Band Props to the house band at everyone’s favorite dive bar! The band includes keyboardist John Juxo, Hawk Rocco, Jim Morgan and Jim Kelley, and they take the stage every Monday night at Nick-a-Nee’s on South Street in the Jewelry District. – JB Favorite Reggae Act: Hope Road Hope Road are a tribute to Bob Marley and The Wailers, and they play a vital role in breathing new life into those songs. I’m not sure why they got cast in reggae vs. tribute, but since they do both, it isn’t really a big deal. You can catch Hope Road when they bring the rasta jams to the Ocean Mist on April 20. 4/20 and all. – MC Favorite Ska Band: The Copacetics The dynasty continues as once again The Copacetics take home the honors for “Favorite Ska Act” for lord only knows how many years in a row. I’m guessing at least six years, but even that could be selling them short. They dominate this category as if they were the Beatles of local ska. The Copaceptics are next in action at Askew on May 17. – MC Favorite Jam Band: The Cosmic Factory I caught The Cosmic Factory recently and it was a haze of funk-fueled mind-bending rock. The Cosmic Factory have a couple of upcoming gigs, including one at The Oasis Pub in New London, Conn, on April 5 and in PVD at AS220’s Psychic Readings on April 18. – MC Favorite Garage Band: Eric and the Nothing This has been a huge year for Eric and the Nothing as they released their debut self-titled debut, which sounds great — highly recommend that you pick it up in vinyl. Eric and the Nothing are more or a throwback to ’50’ Buddy Holly style rock ‘n’ roll than traditional garage rock but hey, I’m good with whatever you kids want to vote for. These guys deserve it. Eric and the Nothing are next in action at AS220 as part of a killer bill on April 24. – MC Favorite Dance Night: Soul Power Speaking of dynasties, Soul Power is working on its own by taking top honors for at least the fifth year in a row. DJs John O’Leary and the dance commander himself, Ty Jesso, bring the party to Dusk twice a month on the second and last Fridays of the month. I’ve been going to Soul Power for the last 15 years and will keep going for another 15 as long as it and I’m still around. Soul Power bring the best of mostly ’60s soul, go-go, mod, garage, funk and a truckload of fun! – MC Favorite Harcore/Metal Act: Rhode Kill Rhode Kill has been cranking out loud blasts of metal and punk since 2005 and are showing no signs of slowing down. These guys have paid their dues and then some. Rhode Kill recently posted that they have some heavy new jams in the works, which I look forward to hearing. – MC Favorite Noise Band: Dropdead Dropdead has been pounding a mix of political hardcore and thrash since 1991. They have released albums and traveled the world and really mean too much to so many people around the world to be a local band. I didn’t think Dropdead really needed a nomination, but sometimes people don’t listen to me. I was excited to see Dropdead recently post photos with the caption stating they had 20-something plus new jams that they are working on. Can’t wait to hear them; singer Bob Otis is a needed voice in these Trumpian times. – MC Favorite Tribute Act: Dirty Deeds Speaking of dynasties, how about Dirty Deeds who are another band that has to be close to at least five consecutive wins? Next year I’m going to suggest adding a new category called Favorite Non-AC/DC Tribute act just to give another band a chance. Dirty Deeds are an interesting story; they have been cranking out those classic AC/DC riffs so long that the band has two generations of family members. Dirty Deeds are at The Whiskey Republic in Providence on May 4. – MC Favorite Rock Festival: PVD Fest I can’t name one act that played last year’s PVD Fest and a year from now I probably won’t be able to name an act from this coming year’s fest. That really isn’t what PVD Fest is about. PVD Fest is a celebration of arts and culture in the city. It is just fun to walk through and stop by the different stages and experience all the different genres of music melded together. This year’s PVD Fest will take place June 6 – 9 all over downtown PVD. – MC Favorite Rock Album and Favorite Male Rock Vocalist: Blackoute Deluxe by Ravi Shavi – Rafay Rashid On Blackout Deluxe, Ravi Shavi expanded their palette to include psychedelic and funk sonic waves while retaining plenty of the high-energy alterna-punk that has long been their calling card. Singer/Guitarist Rafay Rashid, who took the honors for “Favorite Male Vocalist,” has a solo show coming up at the Columbus Theatre on April 4 as part of the WHEM 2 Year Anniversary show, opening for The Horse-Eyed Men. – MC Favorite Rock Act: Tall Teenagers Despite being neither tall nor teenagers, Tall Teenagers come as advertised if it’s dingy post-punk/ alternative rock with harmonies that is on the label. Tall Teenagers have two releases out of low-fi unsettling pop that reminds me of Pod-era Breeders meets Ty Segall at the Rock & Bowl on Saturday night. Next up for these giants is rocking out at the one year anniversary of Askew in Providence on April 20 with The Low Cards and Barn Burning. – MC Favorite Sound Person: Kris Hansen It’s one of those jobs that you don’t notice if it’s done well, but you definitely notice when it’s not.

  • Album of the Week: New Fries' More,Mike D’S Top 5 Can’T Miss Shows of December,The Roots Report: a Future
    HXC: Interview with Alex McCormick of PartyWolfe PartyWolfe are an unstoppable force making its way slowly into the Providence music scene. These fine gentlemen hail from New Bedford, Fall River and Providence, and share some members with notable bands like Math The Band The Band. PartyWolfe does exactly what their name says: They bring energy to any show they play. All the members have fantastic stage presence, but Mr. Alex McCormick, vocalist, is absolutely insane on stage. You’d think that this man was fueled by that cute energizer bunny. I was lucky enough to steal some time from Alex’s rad life to ask him some questions about PartyWolfe and his thoughts on music and performing live. Matt Morales (Motif): So, could you name the members in the band and what they do? Alex McCormick: I’m on vocals and am the whimsical weirdo. Andrew Victorino is Stick flipper/Skin Ripper. Dan Hetu plays what he’s coined the dumb guitar, aka the bass. Jeff McGowan is our lead guitar/main writer/pedal pusher, and Kyle Sousa likes to party. MM: How long have you guys been writing music together? Please tell me the guys in the band saw you singing at karaoke one drunken night and recruited you from there! AM: We’ve been writing together for a year and a half. Kyle re-discovered me making an exchange with my local liquor dealer in Fall River at Sterlings Package Store. We went out, partied in Providence and I drunkenly free-styled vocals over some instrumentals in his car.

Make room on your folk revival shelf for something that may be influenced by folk, but is in no way a revival.” – Splendid Magazine “The melodies are ravishing throughout – sparse and simple, solemn and uplifting. … Alec K. himself has a rich yet fragile voice, joined by equally delicious high female harmonies - classical voices with a hint of eccentric Americana. … Soaked with genuine feeling and deep spirituality… there's extraordinary depth to this music… The melodies…promise hope and celebrate fragile humans despite the darkness. Haunting, compelling, quite unique…” – Organ Magazine "All Praise Be Yours, My Lord, Through Sister Death From Whose Embrace No Mortal Can Escape" – Saint Francis of Assisi, from “Canticle of the Sun” Alec K. Redfearn and The Eyesores have been surprising audiences with their hypnotic, gently explosive rock music for more than a decade. Never one to follow trends, Redfearn’s kaleidoscopic visions, anchored by his extraordinary accordion work and sonorous vocals, exist on the fringes of pop music, songs that are as familiar and individual as snowflakes or fingerprints. While his deep knowledge of folk, classical and world music allows him to slip effortlessly from genre to genre, more often, he creates pieces that subvert established forms to produce work of startling originality.

  • “Gypsy Punks”: the Performance of Real and Imagined Cultural Identities Within a Transnational Migrant Group
    Journal of Popular Music Studies, Volume 24, Issue 1, Pages 3–24 Russian Jews and “Gypsy Punks”: The Performance of Real and Imagined Cultural Identities within a Transnational Migrant Group Rebecca Jablonsky New York University Introduction This article will discuss the implications of the construction of cultural space among Russian Jews in New York City and the narratives employed to collectively produce and claim this space, particularly the repeated notion of being without a “home” or “place.” Analysis of these narratives will address the uniqueness of Russian Jewish identity and the historical factors that contributed to the isolation of Russian Jews in their homeland and in New York.Special attention will be paid to physical Russian Jewish spaces, considering these spaces as mediating agents in constructing cultural identity, as well the role of the music scene as it relates to cultural cohesion. This focus is drawn from communications scholar David Morley’s assertion that media technologies tend to “transport the individual or small family group to destinations (physical, symbolic or imaginary) well beyond the confines of home or neighborhood, combining privacy with mobility” (149). Considering Russian Jews as a highly mobile group that centers on the exclusion of others, inclusion manifests itself through the construction of, and participation in, spaces that represent their physical and imagined communities. Using historical and theoretical research, a literature review, ethnographic techniques, interviews, analyses of songs and media, and the presentation of personally recorded media, Russian Jewish identity and alienation will be used as a means of understanding the “gypsy punk” movement that has emerged in the popular New York City nightclub, Mehanata, also known as “The Bulgarian Bar.” The rising fame of the self- proclaimed gypsy punk band Gogol Bordello will be considered, along with the textual, audio, and visual media that presents this scene to participants.

Examining Committee: Dr. Wayne E. Allen, Chairperson Dr. Kebba Darboe iii Abstract The uninitiated do not realize the complexity of the punk rock sub-culture. Outsiders may find it hard to distinguish the subtle lines by which differentiation occurs within the so-called subculture. The “punk rock subculture” is a misnomer; it is not a salient community. The experience of being “punk” is fractal; what it means to be punk and what classifies one as punk is in constant redefinition and there are various different communities with varying ideologies and identities.

The public named them THE LOUD ONES. LOUD ONES was not a band name— it was a reputation!
