D SACKS AN CO. Kris Delmhorst Blood Test On her first album of original material since 2008’s Shotgun Singer, acclaimed singer/songwriter Kris Delmhorst consciously strips things down. Recorded in Brooklyn with a band composed of guitarist/vocalist Anders Parker (who also co-produced), drummer Konrad Meissner and multi- instrumentalist Mark Spencer, Blood Test is a poetic record with a warm, live sound that complements a collection of songs speaking to presence, empathy, broadening perspective and striving for authentic experience in a frenetic time. Recent years have seen the broadening of Delmhorst’s perspective as she and husband (fellow songwriter) Jeffrey Foucault welcomed a daughter in 2008. And while Blood Test is not explicitly about becoming a photo credit: Shervin Lainez parent (only a few songs even subtly reference it), it is unquestionably an Where did the songs on Blood Test originate? Is there a thematic through-line element of Delmhorst’s worldview that to the songs as a collection? shines in her newest songs. These songs are the first batch I’ve written after becoming a mother, and for much of the time leading up to the recording I thought I was making what a Blood Test joins Delmhorst’s catalog of friend of mine calls a “What’s-in-the-fridge?” record—just throwing together nine albums and EPs released since whatever unrelated songs happened to be at hand. It was only in the process 1998, spanning a range of band of recording them, and listening to them thousands of times, that I really configurations and musical genres. understood how linked they are. These songs all have something to do with She has also recorded vocals, cello taking stock of big-picture life questions: where am I, how did I get here, and fiddle on over 50 albums from where am I going, what have I lost, what have I gained, what parts of all this artists such as Peter Wolf, Mary really matter? Some songs are from an individual perspective and some from Gauthier, Chris Smither and Lori a collective one, but they all swirl around that central idea of a moment of McKenna, and she records and reckoning.

  • A Conversation with Peter Mulvey by Frank Goodman (7/2006, Puremusic.Com)
    A Conversation with Peter Mulvey by Frank Goodman (7/2006, Puremusic.com) Busker poet, Red Sox fan, enlightened romantically cynical fingerpicking wonder, and empirically reluctant mystic Peter Mulvey puts it all together in his ninth full-length release, The Knuckleball Suite. He is a wondrous songwriter, more in love with life than with himself, who is pulling all and everything from every corner of his worldly life and inner life and putting it on the table. He is a funky and very lyrical guitarist, and has a partner in crime in David "Goody" Goodrich that raises the string ante exponentially. Their stringbiosis is uncanny at times, and it's always supporting Mulvey, who's always supporting the song. Unlike most songwriter types, Mulvey and Goodrich went into the studio with a few jazz guys who play various other styles and cut the basics in two days without thinking about it too much. Play it a time or two, agree on a blueprint, and count it off. Handful of overdubs, and mix. We talk about his history in the subway, his experiences touring many times in Ireland, and his roots; how his bedside manner is a coping mechanism, and why he keeps practicing. He is a touring machine with a very good label behind him for these last five releases (one as part of Redbird, a group that includes labelmates Kris Delmhorst and Jeff Foucault). So one wonders, when he is clearly one of the very best out there, why he is not yet more famous. I'm sure there are reasons, like he needs a bigger triple A radio single, needs a TV shot, and why aren't Signature Sounds and Hear Music/Starbucks joined at the hip? Enquiring minds want to know.

  • Contextualizing How Undergraduate Students Develop Toward Critical Consciousness
    Contextualizing How Undergraduate Students Develop Toward Critical Consciousness DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Kari Brooke Taylor Graduate Program in Educational Studies The Ohio State University 2017 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Susan R. Jones, Advisor Dr. Marc Johnston-Guerrero Dr. Cynthia Tyson Copyrighted by Kari Brooke Taylor 2017 Abstract The purpose of this qualitative case study was to examine how interactions between undergraduate students and their learning environments influenced their development toward critical consciousness. Critical consciousness represents a complex way of making meaning of one’s self in relation to one’s social world that is necessary for meeting the demands of today’s diverse democracy and that underlies the ability to demonstrate social responsibility (Freire 1970, 1973; Landreman, Rasmussen, King, & Jiang, 2007). Environments investigated in this case study included curricular and co- curricular experiences associated with a critical service-learning course, the institutional culture of a large public research university, and U.S. society at large. Two sets of research questions guided this study: (1a) What types of interactions between students and their learning environments promote development toward critical consciousness? (1b) How do these types of interactions help students develop critical consciousness? (2a) What types of interactions between students and their learning environments inhibit development toward critical consciousness? (2b) How do these types of interactions stall or interfere with students’ development toward critical consciousness? Case study, grounded upon the respective tenets of interpretivism and critical theory, served as the primary methodology.

The duo’s first collaboration “Bad Guy” is also the first track on Eminem’s new record MMLP2 which features both a co-write and chorus vocal from Jaffe. To say she’s experienced tremendous growth both personally and professionally would be an understatement.
