  • A Conversation with Brandi Carlile by Frank Goodman (7/2007
    A Conversation with Brandi Carlile by Frank Goodman (7/2007. Puremusic.com) Raw talent vs. expensive packaging is always a pleasant surprise in the entertainment business. Brandi Carlile is the very rare exception to the rule; she and her band made their own EP, piece by piece with their own money, and Columbia ended up buying it and putting it out. Rolling Stone chose her as one of the 10 Artists to Watch in 2005. The subsequent Columbia full length debut CD contained new versions of a number of the songs from the EP. Relentless gigging leading up to the EP and through the debut had already moved her through various styles with her running twin partners, the Hanseroth Brothers. Tim and Phil had had a hard rock band called The Fighting Machinists, and they bring that honed edge to the BC sound. She is not only a vocalist that can literally do it all, the band itself moves fluidly and convincingly from flat out country right through edgy pop radio rock. She's the only artist you can see on CMT whose main cited influences are Elton John, k.d. lang, Jeff Buckley, and Radiohead. One hears all the time now about how acts getting tunes on Grey's Anatomy can practically launch their career, but in BC's case, there was a Grey's episode that actually debuted a version of the video for Brandi's big song "The Story." Overall, no less than four of her songs have been used in the show. She's hot, super talented, and a driven workaholic.

  • “Vogue” Em Performances Do Carnaval Carioca Strike a Pose!
    ARTIGO COMUN. MÍDIA CONSUMO, SÃO PAULO, V. 16, N. 46, P. 376-395, MAI./AGO. 2019 DOI 10.18568/CMC.V16I46.1901 Strike a pose! A mediação do videoclipe “Vogue” em performances do Carnaval carioca Strike a Pose! Mediations of “vogue” music video in Performances of Brazilian Carnival Simone Pereira de Sá1 Rodolfo Viana de Paulo2 Resumo: O artigo tem por objetivo abordar as mediações do videoclipe da canção “Vogue”, de Madonna, buscando discutir o seu agenciamento de corpo- reidades periféricas em dois momentos: nos anos 1980, quando o videoclipe se apropria e amplia a visibilidade da dança voguing, praticada pela cena cultural LGBT nova-iorquina, e duas décadas depois, quando o videoclipe é, por sua vez, uma das referências para jovens dançarinos gays nas suas apresentações em alas das escolas de samba do Carnaval carioca. Assim, interessa-nos discutir as zonas de diálogo e de tensão entre performances locais e globais, tendo como aportes teóricos a discussão sobre “cosmopolitismo estético” (REGEV, 2013) e sobre as divas pop como ícones culturais (JENNEX, 2013), entre outras referências. Palavras-chave: Vogue; Madonna; performance; videoclipe; escolas de samba. Abstract: The article discusses the mediations of Madonna’s Music Vid- eo Vogue, seeking to discuss its agency on peripheral bodies in two moments: the first, in the 80s, when the song and music video appropriates the steps and gestures of Voguing created by the LGBT scene in New York; and the second moment, two decades later, when the music video is, in turn, one of the refer- ences for young, black and gay dancers who practice Vogue dance during their presentations on Rio de Janeiro’s samba schools in the present time.

  • The Best Totally-Not-Planned 'Shockers'
    Style Blog The best totally-not-planned ‘shockers’ in the history of the VMAs By Lavanya Ramanathan August 30 If you have watched a music video in the past decade, you probably did not watch it on MTV, a network now mostly stuck in a never-ending loop of episodes of “Teen Mom.” This fact does not stop MTV from continuing to hold the annual Video Music Awards, and it does not stop us from tuning in. Whereas this year’s Grammys were kind of depressing, we can count on the VMAs to be a slightly morally objectionable mess of good theater. (MTV has been boasting that it has pretty much handed over the keys to Miley Cyrus, this year’s host, after all.) [VMAs 2015 FAQ: Where to watch the show, who’s performing, red carpet details] Whether it’s “real” or not doesn’t matter. Each year, the VMAs deliver exactly one ugly, cringe-worthy and sometimes actually surprising event that imprints itself in our brains, never to be forgotten. Before Sunday’s show — and before Nicki Minaj probably delivers this year’s teachable moment — here are just a few of those memorable VMA shockers. 1984: Madonna sings about virginity in front of a black­tie audience It was the first VMAs, Bette Midler (who?) was co-hosting and the audience back then was a sea of tux-wearing stiffs. This is all-important scene-setting for a groundbreaking performance by young Madonna, who appeared on the top of an oversize wedding cake in what can only be described as head-to-toe Frederick’s of Hollywood.

  • Deana Carter Danny Myrick
    Deana Carter DEANA CARTER, the daughter of famed studio guitarist and producer Fred Carter, Jr., grew up surrounded by musical greats, including Willie Nelson, Bob Dylan, Waylon Jennings, and Simon & Garfunkel. She developed her songwriting skills at writer’s nights throughout Nashville, but her real break came when one of her demo tapes fell into the hands of Willie Nelson, who remembered Deana as a child. Impressed with how she’d grown as a songwriter, Nelson asked Deana to perform along with John Mellencamp, Kris Kristofferson, and Neil Young, as the only female solo artist to appear at Farm Aid VII in 1994. Her 1996 debut album Did I Shave My Legs for This? quickly climbed to the top of both the country and pop charts, quickly achieving multi-platinum status. "Strawberry Wine,” the first single from the album, was awarded CMA's 1997 Single of the Year. Seven albums and a decade later, Deana is still writing and producing for both the pop/rock and country markets when not on the road touring. Her superstar success continues to be evident. Her chart topper “You & Tequila,” co-written with Matraca Berg and recorded by Kenny Chesney, was nominated in 2011 as CMA’s “Song of the Year” and received two Grammy nods. Carter also recently co-wrote and produced a new album for recording artist Audra Mae while putting the finishing touches on her own Southern Way of Life that hit the shelves last December. Danny Myrick DANNY MYRICK is an award winning songwriter and musician based here in Nashville.
