  • Dear Friends That Love Music
    Laura Veirs Warp and Weft From one of the country’s most inimitable songwriters – Portland, Oregon’s Laura Veirs – comes her ninth full-length album. Beautiful, lush and at times deeply dark, "Warp and Weft" captures the intensity of motherhood, love and violence. Primarily electric-guitar driven, it is a fever dream of an album and could well be Veirs’ best work to date. It builds on the uniform praise and commercial success of 2010's "July Flame," which Utne Reader dubbed “idiosyncratic and captivating” and received glowing reviews from The New York Times, Pitchfork, NPR and others. The recording of "Warp and Weft" (a weaving term) was a community effort. Produced in Portland in March 2013 by Veirs’ longtime collaborator Tucker Martine, the album features Jim James, kd lang, Neko Case, Brian Blade and members of The Decemberists and many more. Veirs sings not only of mid-winter suns, white blossoming cherry trees and melting ice, but also suicide, gun violence and war. She weaves threads of old folk songs including “Motherless Children” as well as stories of folk-art hero Howard Finster and jazz harpist Alice Coltrane. “I think of this record as a tapestry where disparate elements come together and are stronger and more lovely as a result,” says Veirs. Veirs was eight months pregnant with her second child during the recording; she says her experience as a mother brought about some of the more beautiful and painful songs. “I’m haunted by the idea that something terrible could happen to my kids but that fear pushes me to embrace the moment.

  • PAUL PIGAT Aka COUSIN HARLEY BIOGRAPHY Paul Pigat Started Playing the Guitar at 11 Years of Age and Was Gigging Steadily in Downtown Toronto by the Time He Was 12
    PAUL PIGAT aka COUSIN HARLEY BIOGRAPHY Paul Pigat started playing the guitar at 11 years of age and was gigging steadily in downtown Toronto by the time he was 12. Through a lifetime dedication to live performance, recording and study he has developed into a superb guitarist, vocalist and songwriter. Paul attended the Claude Watson School of the Arts and graduated from the University of Toronto with a Bachelor of Music in theory and composition in 1992. He taught at the Eli Kassner Guitar Academy while continuing to explore live performance opportunities with various bands. Shortly thereafter Paul headed for the west coast, where he has made his home since 1994, and has earned a reputation as one of the best guitarists around. An extremely versatile artist, with projects ranging from delta blues to classical music, he heads four diverse Vancouver bands and is in high demand as a sideman, having recorded and toured with the likes of Neko Case, Michael Kaeshammer, and Carolyn Mark, and has shared the stage with Taj Mahal, Mae Moore, Lee Aaron, the Blind Boys of Alabama, Joshua Redman, Big Sandy and His Flyrite Boys, Aaron Neville, Jim Byrnes, Zubot & Dawson, and more. He has played performance venues ranging from small clubs to large stadiums, and festivals covering the entire spectrum of roots, blues, rockabilly and jazz music. He toured the UK with Neko Case in November 2006, and had the honour of performing with Jim Byrnes and Jesse Zubot at the Closing Ceremonies of the 2006 Torino Paralympic Games earlier in the year. Paul’s central touring project is his rocking hillbilly trio, Cousin Harley, considered to be western Canada’s premier rockabilly and roots band.

  • Daily Press Clips September 17, 2013 Ristolainen Showing He Might Be NHL-Ready by John Vogl Buffalo News September 16, 2013
    Buffalo Sabres Daily Press Clips September 17, 2013 Ristolainen showing he might be NHL-ready By John Vogl Buffalo News September 16, 2013 It seems the scouts and draft analysts knew what they were talking about. They said Rasmus Ristolainen was an NHL-ready prospect, someone who might be able to come into his first training camp and earn a roster spot. Ristolainen is not locked in yet, but he sure looks like he belongs. Ristolainen, selected eighth overall by the Sabres in June, has brought a mature game to Buffalo’s camp. The big defenseman impresses during practice and held his own during his preseason debut Sunday. He’ll likely get another chance tonight when the Sabres visit the Columbus Blue Jackets (7 p.m., Radio 550 AM). If Ristolainen keeps doing well, he could be on the opening-day roster Oct. 2. “I think I’m ready,” Ristolainen said Monday. “I think my style is the kind that I can play right away. That’s my goal. I set this goal at the start of summer, and I was working all summer to make the team.” Ristolainen’s confidence comes from fitting in immediately. The 18-year-old spent the last two seasons playing professionally in his native Finland. He arrived in Buffalo as a mature adult, not a wide-eyed teen who’s just happy to be on the ice. “He’s a man, an 18-year-old man,” said defense partner Mike Weber. “He’s a big boy, skates pretty well, moves the puck really well.
