  • Artist: Jim Lauderdale Album: Country Super Hits Vol 1 Label: Yep Roc
    2006 www.realrootscafe.com [email protected] Artist: Jim Lauderdale Album: Country Super Hits Vol 1 Label: Yep Roc Records woensdag 20 december 2006 Even niet opgelet en de titel ‘Country Super Hits Vol.1’ zet je op het verkeerde been. Het is namelijk geen verzameling oude countryhits van Jim Lauderdale, maar een gloednieuw afgeleverd werkstuk dat, in samenwerking met de mij onbekende Odie Blackmon, werd gemaakt. Beiden schreven - op één na – de liedjes en deden de productie. In Amerika zal dit album waarschijnlijk hoge ogen gooien bij publiek en pers, hier te lande zal alleen de verstokte liefhebber van ouderwetse country & western, in een enigszins vernieuwde outfit, even opkijken. Dus vermoed ik dat deze bespreking tegen vele dovenmansoren zal zijn gericht. Dat valt wat mij betreft goed te snappen, omdat luisteren naar driekwartier Honky Tonk immers een tamelijk zelfkastijdend tijdverdrijf is. Daar kan het uitnodigende openingsnummer van deze cd Honky Tonk Mood Again, het grote koor aan muzikanten en de heldere productie niet veel aan verhelpen. Ook al zijn er een paar nummers met een lichte folk- en bluesinvloed, het blijft té country & western. Waarmee ik het traditionele countrygenre in het algemeen en deze cd in het bijzondere niet wil diskwalificeren. Hooguit valt er wat aan te merken op de smaak van ondergetekende. Maar ja, daarover valt in wezen altijd te twisten. Huub Thomassen Artist: Josh Ottum Album: Like The Season Label: Tapete Records woensdag 20 december 2006 Na vier jaar lang muziek te hebben gemaakt in zijn slaapkamer kwam de uit Seattle afkomstige singer- songwriter Josh Ottum tot het idee maar eens een debuut album te maken.

  • Xavier Rudd Confirmado No Nos Alive'19 No Palco Sagres
    COMUNICADO DE IMPRENSA 18 / 01 / 2019 NOS APRESENTA DIA 11 DE JULHO XAVIER RUDD CONFIRMADO NO NOS ALIVE'19 NO PALCO SAGRES O cantor, compositor e multi-instrumentista australiano Xavier Rudd tem passagem confirmada dia 11 de julho no NOS Alive’19. Depois de dois concertos de apresentação do novo álbum “Storm Boy”, que esgotaram, no ano passado em Portugal, Xavier sobe ao Palco Sagres do NOS Alive. Para o artista escrever e viver a sua vida são um só. Afirma que compõe apenas sobre o que o rodeia. Tudo que Rudd faz entra na sua música, como o seu trabalho ambientalista e ativista, a alimentação vegan, surf e família. Este novo registo “Storm Boy” que contou com a produção de Chris Bond (Ben Howard, Tom Speight) e mistura de Tim Palmer (Pearl Jam, David Bowie, U2) vem reforçar o enorme talento criativo de Xavier Rudd. Rudd iniciou a sua carreira em 2002 com o álbum de estreia “To Let”, antes de lançar sete LP’s em treze anos: “Solace” (2004), “Food In The Belly” (2005), “White Moth” (2007), “Dark Shades Of Blue” (2008), “Koonyum Sun” (2010), “Spirit Bird” (2012) e seu primeiro álbum em parceria com as Nações Unidas “Nanna” (2015). Desde o lançamento do seu último álbum de estúdio “Spirit Bird”, o single integrante “Follow The Sun” tornou-se o seu maior sucesso na Holanda, entrando no topo das rádios nacionais e ainda em inúmeras tabelas e playlists do Spotify, que lhe valeu a presença em alguns dos festivais mais populares europeus. Diretamente da Austrália para o Passeio Marítimo de Algés, Xavier Rudd sobe ao Palco Sagres do NOS Alive’19 dia 11 de julho.
