Although their repertoire includes traditional bluegrass and folk, it is laced with contemporaty songs by the rock group Pavement and singer Carrie Newcomer. The majority of their songs are written by band members, principally Sean Watkins and Chris Thile. The original material of Nickel Creek reflects the diverse musical tastes of the group - from Bach to Pat Metheny to Radiohead. New York Times writer T TerryTeachout describes their sound as "polystylistic." "It's just Nickel Creek music," counters bluegrass luminaty Alison Krauss, producer of their two best selling Sugar Hill albums, and a huge fan of, and influence on, the band. What unites Nickel Creek's sound is a devotion to musical exploration, a reliance on the "good wood" of unplugged mandolin, fiddle, guitar and double bass, and a desire to infuse traditional music with new vigor. As Sean Watkins expresses it, "We want to bring the acoustic message to the youth." The eclecticism of Nickel Creek has been recognized in a remarkably wide set of contexts. Honored with numerous Grammy, Country Music Association and IBMA nominations, they have appeared on the Tonight Show; been profiled on CBS Sunday Morning, All Things Considered, and in the New York Times; and were named among the "best of 2002" by Rolling Stone, Borders, and the Chicago Tribune.

Primary support was provided by the EU projects FP6-507142 SIMAC http://www.semanticaudio.org. iii iv Abstract The complexity of music is one of the less intensively researched areas in music information retrieval so far. Although very interesting findings have been reported over the years, there is a lack of a unified approach to the matter. Relevant publications mostly concentrate on single aspects only and are scattered across different disciplines. Especially an automated estimation based on the audio material itself has hardly been addressed in the past. However, it is not only an interesting and challenging topic, it also allows for very practical applications. The motivation for the presented research lies in the enhancement of human interaction with digital music collections. As we will discuss, there is a variety of tasks to be considered, such as collection visualization, play-list generation, or the automatic recommendation of music. While this thesis doesn’t deal with any of these problems in deep detail it aims to provide a useful contribution to their solution in form of a set of music complexity descriptors.

  • Sara Watkins to Release ​Under the Pepper Tree
    SARA WATKINS TO RELEASE UNDER THE PEPPER TREE MARCH 26th VIA NEW ​ ​ WEST RECORDS REUNITES HER NICKEL CREEK & I’M WITH HER BANDMATES & FEATURES GUEST APPEARANCES BY TAYLOR GOLDSMITH OF DAWES, DAVID GARZA, AND WATKINS’ NOW THREE-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER Sara Watkins of the Grammy-winning groups Nickel Creek and I’m With Her, as well as The Watkins Family Hour will release Under the Pepper Tree on March 26th via New West Records. ​ The 15-song set was produced by Tyler Chester (Sara Bareilles, Margaret Glaspy) and is the follow up to her critically acclaimed 2016 solo album Young In All The Wrong Ways. Created ​ ​ with families in mind, the personal project encompasses songs Sara embraced as a child herself and brings storytelling, solace, and encouragement to the listener, no matter the age. In addition to two stunning original songs, the album includes Sara’s renditions of “Pure Imagination” from the 1971 film Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory, The Beatles’ “Good Night,” “Moon River” ​ ​ (originally sung by Audrey Hepburn in the 1961 film Breakfast at Tiffany’s), and more. Under ​ ​ ​ the Pepper Tree also reunites Sara’s Nickel Creek bandmates Chris Thile and her brother Sean on “Blue Shadows on the Trail” (from the 1986 comedy The Three Amigos), Sara’s I’m With Her ​ ​ bandmates Sarah Jarosz & Aoife O’Donovan on “Tumbling Tumbleweeds” (originally performed by Roy Rogers & Sons of the Pioneers), Taylor Goldsmith of Dawes on Harry Nilsson’s “Blanket for a Sail,” David Garza on Roy Orbison’s “Beautiful Dreamer,” and Sara’s now three-year old daughter on her immensely sweet rendition of The Sound of Music’s “Edelweiss.” ​ ​ Sara admits that she initially felt conflicted about making a children’s record until she realized that perhaps this album could impact a young listener in the same manner as the music from her own childhood affected her.

  • A Prairie Home Companion”: First Broadcast (July 6, 1974) Added to the National Registry: 2003 Essay by Chuck Howell (Guest Post)*
    “A Prairie Home Companion”: First Broadcast (July 6, 1974) Added to the National Registry: 2003 Essay by Chuck Howell (guest post)* Garrison Keillor “Well, it's been a quiet week in Lake Wobegon, Minnesota, my hometown, out on the edge of the prairie.” On July 6, 1974, before a crowd of maybe a dozen people (certainly less than 20), a live radio variety program went on the air from the campus of Macalester College in St. Paul, MN. It was called “A Prairie Home Companion,” a name which at once evoked a sense of place and a time now past--recalling the “Little House on the Prairie” books, the once popular magazine “The Ladies Home Companion” or “The Prairie Farmer,” the oldest agricultural publication in America (founded 1841). The “Prairie Farmer” later bought WLS radio in Chicago from Sears, Roebuck & Co. and gave its name to the powerful clear channel station, which blanketed the middle third of the country from 1928 until its sale in 1959. The creator and host of the program, Garrison Keillor, later confided that he had no nostalgic intent, but took the name from “The Prairie Home Cemetery” in Moorhead, MN. His explanation is both self-effacing and humorous, much like the program he went on to host, with some sabbaticals and detours, for the next 42 years. Origins Gary Edward “Garrison” Keillor was born in Anoka, MN on August 7, 1942 and raised in nearby Brooklyn Park. His family were not (contrary to popular opinion) Lutherans, instead belonging to a strict fundamentalist religious sect known as the Plymouth Brethren.
