    The Songmill: Mary Ellen Casey’s Ordinary Day Little Rhody is a tiny state, but I am willing to bet we have more songwriters per capita than any other. Afloat this summer in our vast pool of dedicated and talented singer songwriters is Mary Ellen Casey. Mary Ellen is not new to songwriting. She has been writing and performing for years. Like many local songwriters trying to support themselves or supplement their income, she performs a hearty mix of her own compositions along with well-known songs by nationally known artists. Her latest and second commercially released CD of original music, Ordinary Day, showcases how beautiful and pleasant her original music really is. Similar to the rich vocal styling of Anne Murray, Mary Ellen’s strong, yet smooth voice is perfectly suited for, and carries well, the songs she has selected for this CD. On first listen, the songs appear to be light with very pop memorable and melodic refrains. Digging in deeper, though, you will hear much more. Between the soft lines of her lilting voice lies an undercurrent of deeper meaning – a soul searching for itself. The album, dedicated to her soul mate, leads with an up-tempo number “The Love of Her Life” – a quest for someone looking for, and finding, that special someone. Several cuts in this collection laud those who have stayed together through the thick and the thin of it all and come out shining. Probably the finest song on the album is, “You Love Me Anyway” – a passionate and honest reflection on the strengths, weaknesses and differences that hold a couple near and dear.

  • The Band That Became Spirit of the West Began As a Folk Trio Called Evesdropper in Vancouver Nearly 30 Years Ago. 13 Albums
    The band that became Spirit of the West began as a Folk trio called Evesdropper in Vancouver nearly 30 years ago. 13 albums later, they have achieved status as one of the most beloved ‘Legacy Artists’ in Canadian history, having proven themselves to be road-worthy, durable, having toured Canada, the US, UK and Europe consistently, building a dedicated following of fans from all over the world. They have been inducted into the Halls of Fame / Lifetime Achievement Categories by the Western Canadian Music Association and the Society of Composers and Music Publishers of Canada, and have used their inestimable charms to wheedle complimentary pints out of barmen in at least 9 countries. With four gold and two platinum albums to their credit, Spirit of the West are responsible for such songs as: ‘(And if) Venice is Sinking’, ‘Five Free Minutes’, ‘Save This House’, ‘The Crawl’ and ‘Home For a Rest’, the song that has been called Canada’s honorary national anthem:. ‘Spirituality: A Consummate Compendium’, a double CD album on Rhino Records, is the band’s most recent release and is a look back at the first 25 years of their career. The band is: John Mann, Guitarist, vocalist and charismatic front man. John is also an accomplished actor who can be seen on episodic television and movies often pretending to be an assassin, ghost, devil, redneck, spy, and other characters that simply don’t scan if you know this vegetarian peacenik. List of both big & small screen appearances as well as starring roles in live theatre far too numerous to mention here.

  • NICKELBACK Silver Side up (Rock)
    NICKELBACK Silver side up (Rock) Année de sortie : 2001 Nombre de pistes : 11 Durée : 39' Support : CD Provenance : Acheté Nous avons décidé de vous faire découvrir (ou re découvrir) les albums qui ont marqué une époque et qui nous paraissent importants pour comprendre l'évolution de notre style préféré. Nous traiterons de l'album en le réintégrant dans son contexte originel (anecdotes, etc.)... Une chronique qui se veut 100% "passionnée" et "nostalgique" et qui nous l'espérons, vous fera réagir par le biais des commentaires ! ...... Bon voyage ! Fondé au Canada en 1995, NICKELBACK est emmené par le guitariste chanteur Chad KROEGER, associé au guitariste Ryan PEAKE, au bassiste (et demi-frère de Chad) Mike KROEGER et au batteur Ryan VIKEDAL. Après des débuts difficiles, l’horizon du groupe s’éclaire quand il parvient l’année suivante à décrocher une signature sur Roadrunner, grâce auquel il enregistre un premier album Curb en 1996. Le disque connaît un succès modeste, mais la tournée canadienne destinée à promouvoir son successeur The State (1998) satisfait suffisamment le label pour qu’il décide de lancer le groupe sur le marché américain en 2000. La consécration intervient l’année suivante pour NICKELBACK avec Silver Side Up, et en particulier le single How You Remind Me, qui bénéficie d’une intense diffusion radiophonique. NICKELBACK est généralement classé parmi les formations Néo-Metal, mais préfère se revendiquer du courant Post Grunge. Il est vrai que le groupe présente des influences qui le portent vers la scène de Seattle. Il emprunte ainsi à celle-ci les guitares lourdement saturées, omniprésentes sur les titres de Silver Side Up.
