Foxygen – …And Star Power (ALBUM REVIEW)
[rating=7.00] With 2012’s Take the Kids Off Broadway, Foxygen made a bold statement with a debut album that was delightfully quirky while unabashedly derivative. The ambitious release was equal parts a genuine album and a fun game of Spot the Influence. The album was original in its ability to meld so many different musical styles, […]
Lettuce – Higher Ground, South Burlington, VT 10/25/14 (SHOW REVIEW)

The song strays away from the country-folk of 2011’s The […]

Sam Amidon – Lily-O (ALBUM REVIEW)

There’s always been something really old world about his composition and singing style, and since last year’s gorgeous Bright Sunny South, he’s truly honed this sound even more. On his new record, Lily-O, he collaborates with the legendary guitar player Bill Frisell […]
