  • 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.

    Dossier de presse TUBA SKINNY EUROPEAN TOUR 2018 Tournée en France, Belgique et Pays-Bas TUBA SKINNY a commencé de jouer dans les rues de la Nouvelle-Orléans en 2009 et se produit aujourd’hui dans le monde entier Jean-Pierre de Smet et René Chalandon 1 Formation : Erika Lewis - Vocals Todd Burdick - Tuba Shaye Cohn – Cornet Shaye’s musical heritage is impressive, and perhaps goes some way to explain her extraordinary talents as a musician (trumpet/cornet, piano, violin), arranger, composer, artist, and I suspect, quiet power which holds the band together. Granddaughter of Al Cohn, saxophonist with Woody Herman etc. and Marilyn Moore, jazz singer, and daughter of Joe Cohn, guitarist etc., Shaye originally trained as a classical pianist. Where did she go wrong/right! Barnabus Jones - Trombone Craig Flory- Clarinet Robin Rapuzzi - Washboard Jason Lawrence- 6 string banjo Greg Sherman -Guitar 2 Qui est Tuba Skinny ? Tuba Skinny est un groupe américain de jazz Nouvelle- Orléans formé en 2009, composé de divers instrumentistes dont un tuba, un trombone, un cornet, un banjo ténor, une guitare, des voix, du washboard, une clarinette. Ce groupe, dont le nom signifie littéralement « tuba maigre », produit une musique inspirée par le jazz précoce des années 1920 et 1930. Depuis sa formation, le groupe composé à l'origine de musiciens de rue depuis constitué en groupe de scène, s'est produit partout dans le monde, lors de festivals de rue ou dans des salles de concert. Le groupe a su gagner un public fidèle avec leur musique caractéristique, leur engagement dans la reprise de chansons depuis longtemps oubliées et leur spectacles époustouflants.

    Tuba Skinny videos on YouTube Hi, I was looking for all Tuba Skinny videos on YouTube. What I found you will see below. I found more than 2000 different URLs of videos on various channels. Thanks to digitalalexa (462), RaoulDuke504(280), James Sterling (162) and others for diligent filming and uploading this amount of recordings. I sorted this list by the title of the songs. Sometimes some strange characters disturb a proper sorting. I also sorted this list by the date of recording the song just to find the first recording. But not all videos have a good readable date. At the end of this list you will find all channels with Tuba Skinny recordings I found with a date off 30. January 2019. I apologize for some incomplete titles and some wrong URLs, which sneaked in.
