  • Wilco-Songs Minimalistisch
    Folkdays … Wilco-Songs minimalistisch Musik | Jeff Tweedy: Together At Last Jeff Tweedy, das ist einerseits ein Singer-Songwriter, andererseits ist er der Macher von Wilco in Zusammenarbeit mit John Stirratt, Glenn Kotche, Mikael Jorgensen, Nels Cline und Pat Sansone. Er war auch einmal mit dem Band-Projekt Golden Smog zu hören und es gibt neue Bands von ihm genannt Loose Fur und Tweedy. Das zuerst kurz als Fakten. Von TINA KAROLINA STAUNER Das neue Album von Jeff Tweedy ›Together At Last‹ ist wie ein Überbleibsel aus einer Zeit, in der die Freude Americana, Alternative Country und Neofolk zu hören manchmal fast ungetrübt war. Kein Mainstream laberte irgendeinen Klimbim dazwischen und neben Befindlichkeits- und Beziehungstexten war Sozial- und Gesellschaftskritik in Lyrics ein Zeichen für Anspruch und Niveau. Die Chicagoer Independent-Band Wilco hatte sich mit den ersten Alben in den 1990er Jahren mit Leib und Seele in den Spirit einer ganzen Independent-Generation gespielt. Entstanden aus Uncle Tupelo war Wilco immer wichtig im Diskurs. Bezogen auf traditionelles Wissen über Country und Folk hatte die Band einen ureigenen Sound und integrierte manchmal auch neue und elektronische Klänge in den Kontext. Mittlerweile scheint Jeff Tweedy teils zynisch bis zum geht-nicht-mehr und nach ›Star Wars‹ und ›Schmilco‹ mit Cover-Artwork wie ein Cartoon kam ein ›Together At Last‹. Vergangenheit ist das Woody Guthrie Project, das er mit Nora Guthrie und Billy Bragg vor Jahren veröffentlichte. Vergangenheit sind die frühen Independent-Jahre, wenn es überhaupt noch Leute gibt, die sich daran erinnern. Vergangenheit ist die Band-Dokumentation ›Man in the Sand‹. Vergangenheit sind Songs wie ›In A Future Age‹.

I believe my brain loves the intersection of art, craft, and technology.

  • A Conversation with Garrison Starr by Frank Goodman (7/2006, Puremusic.Com)
    A Conversation with Garrison Starr by Frank Goodman (7/2006, Puremusic.com) In the middle of SXSW 2006, I had stopped in to a club to see a set by Jules Shear. I noticed that Garrison Starr was the act before him so I went down early to catch that, too. I'd liked the songs I'd heard here and there, but had never seen her live. I could tell by the way she stood that she weren't no folksinger. Although he was completely in darkness stage right, I noticed Brian Bequette on guitar with a big pedal board, a guy I knew very slightly from Nashville, but thought he was a bass player... The highly regarded Neilson Hubbard was on keyboards, I knew that he'd produced Garrison records in the past, and records for a couple of friends of mine. The drummer I didn't know, but you could tell when he checked his drums real quick that he hadn't been hired for his brush work. There was some problem with the sound system or mixer, but they blasted right through that. You only get a short set and then you're done, so there's no time to get bogged down. From the top, Garrison's presence and her singing was so true, so urgent, and so naked that I couldn't take my eyes (or my lens) off her. The ensemble was picture perfect, but in a rock and roll way. The songs were beautifully written and sung, great melodies and arrangements. And the chick was throwing down, hard.

    JUGGLING PROBABILITIES GREGORY S. WARRINGTON 1. Introduction Imagine1 yourself effortlessly juggling five balls in a high, lazy pattern. Your right hand catches a ball and immediately throws it. One second later, it is your left hand’s turn to catch and throw a ball. Then it is your right hand’s turn again.... Some of your throws may be low; some high. Some balls go straight up; others cross over to the opposite hand. At most times, one ball lands; occasionally a hand remains empty. But the alternating cadence of your hands is unwavering. Suppose that, while you are juggling, we momentarily pause time. Certain balls are in the air — you have already thrown them. To avoid dropping the ball, you must make catches at certain times in the future. If your previous few throws were all low, perhaps you are only committed at 1,2,4,6 and 7 seconds in the future. On the other hand, if you had just vigorously launched a ball, you might be committed at 1,2,3,4 and 10 seconds in the future. The set of “committed times” is your landing state (“state” for short). As you juggle, you wander from state to state according to what throw you have most recently made. Our goal in this paper is to answer the following Random Question. What fraction of the time is spent in any given state if every throw is chosen randomly? The answer, of course, depends on how we specify the following parameters: 1. the possible states, 2. the legal throws from a given state and 3.

  • HALE: Film Series 2 Neil Finn & Friends “Seven Worlds Collide/The Sun Came Out” Friday, August 11
    GO TO HALE: Film Series 2 Neil Finn & Friends “Seven Worlds Collide/The Sun Came Out” Friday, August 11 Santa Barbara, CA, July 18, 2017 – Rock ‘n roll fan and music lover Hale Milgrim is back with ANOTHER carefully- crafted series of special evenings featuring rare concert footage and insider stories with some (OK, a lot) of help from his friends. Join Hale for a visual, musical journey over the last 50 years complete with his memorable insights, commentary and illumination. Or not. On Friday, August 11, Hale has put together a new evening featuring showcasing the 7 Worlds Collide / The Sun Came Out concert films. Crowded House frontman Neil Finn has recorded many successful solo albums as well as assembled an amazing cast of musicians for the 7 Worlds Collide project, a live recording & concert film culled from a series of five shows recorded at the St James theatre in New Zealand in 2001. Watch for RADIOHEAD’S Ed O’Brien and Phil Selway, PEARL JAM’S Eddie Vedder, THE SMITHS’ Johnny Marr, WILCO’s Jeff Tweedy, Glenn Kotche, John Stirratt and Pat Sansone. PLUS, KT Tunstall, Tim Finn, Liam Finn, (and even more Finns) and lots of Hale’s patented Quips & Clips! Please note: Content is subject to change without warning. Milgrim’s own musical journey started behind the counter at Isla Vista’s Discount Records, and has spiraled upward through a succession of positions at major record labels, leading eventually to a stint as the President/CEO of Capitol Records. Since returning to Santa Barbara with his wife Anne, he has continued to work and support local music (including Sings Like Hell), and hosted a Sunday radio show, “Go to Hale,” which aired for over six years on KTYD.
