FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Spoleto Festival USA Announces Grammy-nominated BRANDI CARLILE in Concert at the TD Arena at the College of Charleston on Monday, May 30 at 8:30pm Tickets on sale Friday, February 26 at 10:00am Donor pre-sale begins Tuesday, February 23 at 10:00am spoletousa.org | 843.579.3100 February 19, 2016 (CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA)—Spoleto Festival USA today announced that Americana singer-songwriter Brandi Carlile will perform a Memorial Day concert as part of the 2016 Festival. She will be joined on stage by her full band for the concert that will include songs from her Grammy-nominated and critically acclaimed album The Firewatcher’s Daughter. The concert will be in the TD Arena at the College of Charleston on Monday, May 31 at 8:30pm. Tickets start at $25 and go on sale to the general public on Friday, February 26. A donor pre-sale will start Tuesday, February 23. Known for her soaring melodies and rich, rugged voice, Brandi Carlile’s sound traverses the genres of folk, rock, and country underscored by a lyrical honesty. The Firewatcher’s Daughter—released in March 2015—features Carlile’s longtime collaborators Phil and Tim Hanesroth, known as “The Twins,” who will join her on stage in Charleston. Of this musical partnership, Rolling Stone magazine said: “Everyone sings. Everyone plays. Everyone writes songs. At its most collaborative, Brandi Carlile—the band, not the person—recreates the sort of primordial Americana pioneered by vocal groups like Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young . .” The harmonies also evoke Fleetwood Mac, who Carlile has acknowledged as a significant influence on The Firewatcher’s Daughter songwriting. Other collaborators with whom Brandi Carlile has worked during her career include producers T-Bone Burnett and Rick Rubin, and she collaborated with Elton John on her 2009 album Give Up the Ghost. Singles from The Firewatcher’s Daughter include “Wherever Is Your Heart” and “The Eye” and follow the success of previous songs “The Story” and “That Wasn’t Me.” The Brandi Carlile concert will conclude a jam-packed opening weekend for Spoleto Festival USA that takes place in Charleston, South Carolina May 27 through June 12. The Festival will be jump-started on Thursday, May 26 with a concert in the College of Charleston Cistern Yard by Old Crow Medicine Show, who will also perform on opening night. Other events taking place over opening weekend include opera, theater, classical music, chamber music and concerts presented as part of the Wells Fargo Jazz series. Tickets for all performances are available now from spoletousa.org or by phone from the box office at 843.579.3100.

  • 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.

  • Changes to Rule 5.5B1, Extent of Item for Notated Music
    CC:DA/MLA/2011/2 May 12, 2011 page 1 of 5 To: ALA/ALCTS/CCS Committee on Cataloging: Description and Access From: Mark Scharff, Music Library Association liaison to CC:DA Subject: Change to RDA 7.24 and Glossary, Artistic and/or Technical Credit The Bibliographic Control Committee of the Music Library Association requests CC:DA’S endorsement of the proposed revision to the text of Resource Description and Access (RDA). We ask for your consideration and endorsement at the 2011 Annual Meeting so that the proposal may be considered by the Joint Steering Committee at their November meeting. This proposal has been reviewed by members of OLAC’s Cataloging Policy Advisory Committee (CAPC). As mentioned at the end of the document, CC:DA may wish to broaden the scope of this proposal; if that is the case, we hope for timely action. Background Music catalogers have traditionally recorded information on music producers and engineers deemed to be significant in a note, according to AACR2 rule 6.7B6, Statements of Responsibility. Such information has been accommodated in MARC field 508 $a, Creation/Production Credits Note. Furthermore, music catalogers have often found it prudent to trace the names of producers and engineers in added entries, for enhanced access. As presently written, RDA 7.24 restricts the recording of this information to motion pictures and video recordings, thereby limiting catalog users’ access to this information in the realm of sound recordings. Rationale RDA 7.24 and the Glossary currently define Artistic and/or Technical Credit as “a listing of persons, families, or corporate bodies making contributions to the artistic and/or technical production of a motion picture or video recording other than as performers, narrators, or presenters.” MLA proposes that the Glossary definition and Basic Instructions on recording artistic and/or technical credits (7.24.1) be expanded to include sound recording producers and engineers.

But not before she agreed to take a fl yer as an actress with a guest shot on the hit tele vi- sion sitcom Ugly Betty. It seemed like a harm- Aless diversion from all the drama and pressure in her life. She reasoned, how hard could it be to play herself? In the episode, Betty is dancing with her husband at their wedding when the couple is suddenly interrupted by Adele. Th ere is some harmless banter and the next thing we know Adele is up on stage singing the song “Right As Rain.” Adele realized that that kind of promotion in America was well worth the eff ort, but would later acknowledge in Vogue that the Ugly Betty experience cured her of any future acting aspirations. “I can’t watch it. I was so uncomfortable. I am the worst actress of all time.” But Adele was thankful for the momentary respite from Marc Shapiro her day job as singer-songwriter on the rise.

  • The Grey Album and Musical Composition in Configurable Culture
    What Did Danger Mouse Do? The Grey Album and Musical Composition in Configurable Culture This article uses The Grey Album, Danger Mouse’s 2004 mashup of Jay-Z’s Black Album with the Beatles’“White Album,” to explore the ontological status of mashups, with a focus on determining what sort of creative work a mashup is. After situating the album in relation to other types of musical borrowing, I provide brief analyses of three of its tracks and build upon recent research in configurable-music practices to argue that the album is best conceptualized as a type of musical performance. Keywords: The Grey Album, The Black Album, the “White Album,” Danger Mouse, Jay-Z, the Beatles, mashup, configurable music. Downloaded from captions.
