A proven road warrior, his latest release, Crazy All By Myself –on the VizzTone Label Group – has been soaring near the top of the charts. http://www.bluesblastmagazine.com/featured-interview-nick-schnebelen/ Nick Schnebelen - Crazy All By Myself – Elmore Magazine Crazy All By Myself makes for an uncompromising hour of massive, blues-based grooves. Schnebelen presents two contrasting but well-blended images of himself. For “It Ain’t Me,” he snarls out the lyrics, pulling hard on his guitar while riding the band’s fat bottom, anchored here by the bass of the great Reggie McBride. The funky soul of it brings to mind Doyle Bramhall II and his work in the Arc Angels. But when the rockabilly-driven “Ain’t Got Time for The Blues” hits the bricks, the stylishness of early Tommy Castro gleams, coinciding with the chic photo on the album’s cover.

Eight of the thirteen tracks are co-written by Schnebelen with some of our best songwriters.This studio recording should establish Schnebelen as a creative force; as a songwriter, guitarist and vocalist.” Making A Scene!, Richard Ludmerer NICK SCHNEBELEN - Crazy All By Myself – Midwest Records NICK SCHNEBELEN/Crazy All By Myself: After grabbing a slew of blues awards, hitting it out of the park with his sibs out of the box and making waves with a pair of live albums, now he’s ready to really up the ante.

  • Gathering of the Vibes 2008 Chad Berndtson July 29, 2008 Having
    Preview: Gathering of the Vibes 2008 Chad Berndtson July 29, 2008 Having recently finished an enterprise feature for another publication on the glut of national music festivals and what role that glut creates for regional festivals with a lot more personality, I’m more excited this year for the Gathering of the Vibes than I have been in quite some time. As the man said, “He’d have to be one charming motherfuckin pig”…er, sorry, “Personality goes a long way.” Compared to the Roo- and Coachella-sized behemoths, and a lot of the sexy new kids with names both playful and official-sounding—Rothbury might be a bit of both, and allegedly, it was quite the time—the Vibes is a creakier, more elegant dinosaur. A glorious, humble triceratops of a festival, yes, secure in its size, pleasant in its modest ambition and its abilities, not ostentatious, and kindly manageable. And damn isn’t it great to have it back in New England proper (it returned in 2007 after several years of renovation to Bridgeport’s Seaside Park and a few years at various upstate New York locales)? For this born/bred New Englander, it’s not only in a New England/Tri-State area happy medium, but it fills a still-felt void left by the big Phish festivals of yore and especially the can’t-believe-it’s-been-five-years-now departed Berkshire Mountain Music Festival (1997-2003). (For Berkfest alums from those heady days, monsoon conditions and all, have a scoop of nostalgia on the house) The Vibes doesn’t have the gaudy cache of some festivals, or some of the nationally dazzling headliners.

  • Young Americans to Emotional Rescue: Selected Meetings
    YOUNG AMERICANS TO EMOTIONAL RESCUE: SELECTING MEETINGS BETWEEN DISCO AND ROCK, 1975-1980 Daniel Kavka A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC August 2010 Committee: Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Katherine Meizel © 2010 Daniel Kavka All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Disco-rock, composed of disco-influenced recordings by rock artists, was a sub-genre of both disco and rock in the 1970s. Seminal recordings included: David Bowie’s Young Americans; The Rolling Stones’ “Hot Stuff,” “Miss You,” “Dance Pt.1,” and “Emotional Rescue”; KISS’s “Strutter ’78,” and “I Was Made For Lovin’ You”; Rod Stewart’s “Do Ya Think I’m Sexy“; and Elton John’s Thom Bell Sessions and Victim of Love. Though disco-rock was a great commercial success during the disco era, it has received limited acknowledgement in post-disco scholarship. This thesis addresses the lack of existing scholarship pertaining to disco-rock. It examines both disco and disco-rock as products of cultural shifts during the 1970s. Disco was linked to the emergence of underground dance clubs in New York City, while disco-rock resulted from the increased mainstream visibility of disco culture during the mid seventies, as well as rock musicians’ exposure to disco music. My thesis argues for the study of a genre (disco-rock) that has been dismissed as inauthentic and commercial, a trend common to popular music discourse, and one that is linked to previous debates regarding the social value of pop music.

    B L U E I N K APRIL 2016 Gator By the Bay Brings Musicians Together in Exciting Pairings Now in its 15th year, Gator By the Bay, May 5-8, 2016, has become a wildly popular San Diego festival tradition known for presenting an eclectic mix of musical styles and a fun- filled atmosphere. Wander among the festival’s seven stages and you can listen to everything from authentic Louisiana Cajun and Zydeco music to Chicago and West Coast Blues, from Latin to Rockabilly and Swing. In recent years, Gator By the Bay has also earned a stand-out reputation for bringing together stellar combinations of musicians in innovative mash-up performances, presenting musical groupings you won’t hear anywhere else. This year is no exception. On Saturday, May 7, San Diego’s own multiple gold guitarist Johnny Vernazza will share the Mardi Gras Stage with blues greats Roy Rogers and John Németh. Often lauded as the “Master of the Slide Guitar”, Roy Rogers’ distinctive style is instantly recognizable. He’s shared duets with such greats as John Lee Hooker and Allen Toussaint, and teamed up with the likes of Norton Buffalo and Ray Manzarek. Harmonica virtuoso, vocalist and songwriter John Németh has multiple Blues Music Awards nominations to his name, and his album, ‘Memphis Grease’, won Best Soul Blues Album at the 2015 Blues Music Awards. He has been nominated for the Blues Music Awards 2016 B.B. King Entertainer of the Year Award, to be given out on May 5. Other notable combined artists’ performances include Sugaray Rayford, Alabama Mike & the Drop Ins with harmonica master Rick Estrin and harmonica and guitar whiz-kid Jon Atkinson on Friday evening, May 6, and Jon Atkinson with Rick Estrin and Fabulous Thunderbird alumna Kim Wilson on Saturday, May 7.

Well, in 1949 BB was a young bluesman playing at a club in Twist, Arkansas that was heated by a half-filled barrel of kerosene in the middle of the dance floor to keep it warm. A fight broke out and the barrel got knocked over with flaming kerosene all over the wooden floor. “It looked like a river of fire, so I ran outside. But when I got on the outside, I realized I left my guitar inside.” B.B. Said he then raced back inside to save the cheap Gibson L-30 acoustic he was playing …and nearly lost his life! The next day he found out the 2 men who started the fight-and fire- had been fighting over a woman named Lucille who worked at that club.

  • 35 Music, Drama, Dance and Performing Arts Title of Case
    Impact case study (REF3b) Institution: SOAS Unit of Assessment: 35 Music, Drama, Dance and Performing Arts Title of case study: Bringing Malian Music to International Audiences (Lucy Duran) 1. Summary of the impact (indicative maximum 100 words) Dr Lucy Duran’s ethnomusicological research into the traditional musical forms, cultural practices and instruments of Mali has underpinned the studio production of two internationally acclaimed albums, Segu Blue, winner of two BBC Radio 3 Music Awards for Best World Music Album and Best African Artist in 2008, and I Speak Fula, a 2010 Grammy nominee for Best Traditional World Music Album. Both have raised awareness amongst musicians and global audiences of Bamana musical traditions, including the ngoni, the oldest of the West African lutes and, until Segu Blue, an instrument hardly known beyond West Africa. 2. Underpinning research (indicative maximum 500 words) Dr Lucy Duran has worked with musicians in Mali since the late 1980s, primarily as a researcher, but also as a music producer and broadcaster. Since 1992, Dr Duran has been Lecturer in African Music at SOAS, where she completed her PhD in 1999. Since 2000 she combined this role with presenting the World Routes programme on Radio 3 (1, below). Fundamentally, Duran’s research examines how music encapsulates the core values of southern Malian identities and explores how traditional music and song participate in communicating those values. Duran considers her work as a producer in Mali to fall within the rubric practice-based research as such participation in the mediation of the creative process can provide unique insights into the aesthetics and dynamics of a musical culture.

  • " African Blues": the Sound and History of a Transatlantic Discourse
    “African Blues”: The Sound and History of a Transatlantic Discourse A thesis submitted to The Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Music in the Division of Composition, Musicology, and Theory of the College-Conservatory of Music by Saul Meyerson-Knox BA, Guilford College, 2007 Committee Chair: Stefan Fiol, PhD Abstract This thesis explores the musical style known as “African Blues” in terms of its historical and social implications. Contemporary West African music sold as “African Blues” has become commercially successful in the West in part because of popular notions of the connection between American blues and African music. Significant scholarship has attempted to cite the “home of the blues” in Africa and prove the retention of African music traits in the blues; however much of this is based on problematic assumptions and preconceived notions of “the blues.” Since the earliest studies, “the blues” has been grounded in discourse of racial difference, authenticity, and origin-seeking, which have characterized the blues narrative and the conceptualization of the music. This study shows how the bi-directional movement of music has been used by scholars, record companies, and performing artist for different reasons without full consideration of its historical implications. i Copyright © 2013 by Saul Meyerson-Knox All rights reserved. ii Acknowledgements I would like to express my utmost gratitude to my advisor, Dr. Stefan Fiol for his support, inspiration, and enthusiasm. Dr. Fiol introduced me to the field of ethnomusicology, and his courses and performance labs have changed the way I think about music.
