  • Want a Guitar
    :: View email as a web page :: It's understandable that Taylor Swift would want to spend more time in the wintery-country world she created for Folklore. (For starters, even someone as rich as Swift has nothing better to do at the moment.) But even Folklore felt overstuffed — at 16 tracks, it's a little samey in places, especially given the monochromatic nature of Dessner's musical electro- folk beds. (This has also been an issue on the last few National records.) It's still the second-best Taylor Swift record after Red, though it might have topped that record had it been reduced to an unbeatable 10-12 tracks, with "Cardigan," "The Last Great American Dynasty," "Mirrorball," "August," and "Invisible String" acting as a very strong core. Swift — and surely her many fans — no doubt feel differently. So now comes Evermore, the Amnesiac to Folklore's Kid A. As Swift herself concedes, this is the first time that a Taylor Swift record has reiterated a previous album's aesthetic, rather than pushing her music in a different direction. Put another way: It's another 15 songs of novelistic Swift writing set against downbeat pianos, plunky acoustic guitars, and stripped-back vibes. Check out my review here. -- Steven Hyden, Uproxx Cultural Critic and author of This Isn't Happening: Radiohead's "Kid A" and the Beginning of the 21st Century In case you missed it...

    CHARLIE HORSE a play in one act by M.L. Dart [email protected] | 780.994.7113 catchthekeys.ca | @catchthekeys CAST OF CHARACTERS CHARLIE HORSE: A young child between the ages of 8-11. Pronouns suggest male, but gender is irrelevant. MOTHER: Charlie’s mother; mid-40s. COLIN: Charlie’s brother; early 20s. VICTORIA: Colin’s girlfriend; early 20s. UNCLE BRIAN: Close family friend; mid-40s. RULES OF ENGAGEMENT The performance is intended to take place in a site specific, immersive environment. An empty apartment in which the audience is welcome to explore the space is ideal. Charlie can see and interact with the audience, and should encourage the audience to interact with him. Charlie’s banter with the audience can be improvised within the structure of the script. Charlie’s imaginary drawings and hockey stick handlings are projections he is able to manipulate and interact with.
