Q&A with J. Tillman (of Fleet Foxes) — Playing @ The EARL, November 21

By Eileen Tilson A few months back I received the new J. Tillman CD to review. Not knowing much about the Tillman, outside of the fact that he was the drummer for Fleet Foxes, I decided I needed to do some serious research. I put in the album, and what came through the speakers blew […]

Live Review: Ezra Furman & the Harpoons and Rachel Goodrich @ The Drunken Unicorn, November 6

Live Review: Ezra Furman & the Harpoons and Rachel Goodrich @ The Drunken Unicorn, November 6

By Micah McLain Rachel Goodrich's music is the definition of DIY, with the ever present harmonica-turned-kazoo holder around her neck, the seemingly beginner acoustic guitar arrangements that serve as the foundation of her songs and the fact that her drummer's "kit" consists of a single bass drum.

Live Review: King Khan and BBQ, Those Darlins, GG King @ Star Bar, November 4

By Bryan  Aiken To paint a picture, it’s three o’clock in the morning, I’m recently returned home from a veritable debacle at a too-packed Star Bar, my shirt is in shreds, and I have beer-hair.

Live Review: Kurt Vile and the Violators, Lovvers, Carnivores @ 529, November 3

By Julia Reidy Carnivores are my new favorite local band. After rising from the ashes of the now-defunct Chainestereo, they’ve re-formed with renewed vigor and have plenty to show for it. Tuesday at 529, the group pulled about half the set from its surprisingly awesome debut LP, All Night Dead USA (released locally this July […]
