Lindsay Kay talks with Imperfect Fifth about her musical beginnings

I had the good fortune and complete ambivalence of being surrounded by excellent music from a very young age. I had The Eagles, Rod Stewart, and The Boomtown Rats coming at me from my father, and Elton John, Toni Braxton, and Whitney Houston coming at me from my mother. While those great songs were being absorbed by my brain in some sort of osmosis way that would show itself later in my life, at the time, my heart and ears belonged only to the pure ecstasy of 90s pop. Take a trip down memory lane with me to a simpler time… MTV was in its golden age, the Lip Smackers and Gelly Roll pens were plentiful, the Gushers and Dunkaroos were delicious, and Britney Spears ruled the world.

From age 3 to 9, I had the coolest babysitter ever; a teenager named Katie who helped me make scrapbooks and watched Clueless with me after school. She introduced me to the Starbucks Strawberries and Cream Frappuccino, took me the pottery painting place to make my own mugs and plates, and even let me hang out with her and her high school friends sometimes – the ultimate achievement for a mere elementary schooler. We were two peas in a pod, and she would frequently take me with her on her teen excursions to the mall while my mom was building her business……READ MORE

The Deep Hollow talks with No Depression about their single “Freedom Street” and upcoming album

Springfield, Illinois’ The Deep Hollow would seem to have an overnight success story, but that’s not actually the case. Staples of the local music scene of Springfield, Illinois, Micah Walk, and DaveLittrell have an especially long list of previous credits and musical explorations, from collaborating in other Americana bands to touring extensively in a prog-rock band. Notably, Walk worked on a project with Jamie Candiloro, whose biggest collaborators include Ryan Adams, Willie Nelson, and The Eagles, among others. Singer Liz Eckert comes from a community theatre background. She tried out for American Idol once and made it all the way to Hollywood. Thoughher star wasn’t catapulted into the stratosphere then, her talents would come of great use around town, leading her to serve as a fill-in for a cover band, a side project of Walk’s. The two would strike an instant chemistry, and the duo formed in 2013.

Some time later, when Littrell was itching to try out some new tunes he wrote, he turned to the duo ahead of an upcoming show. With no rehearsal, the trio hit the stage and something truly stupendous happened. A smooth blend of three-part harmonies poured out and set the foundation for an already impressive catalog of work together. “That was when we knew what we wanted next,” remembers Walk.

It was the song “Devil” that proved to be groundbreaking for them. They submitted it to American Songwriter’s 30th Anniversary Song Contest and ended up winning. “Not to sound jaded or disheartened or anything, but when you apply for a lot of contests for a few years and you maybe make it through a round or something, you almost assume nothing is going to come of it. We were excited to just be a finalist. When we won, it was like holy cow.”….READ MORE

AmericanaUK reviews Nick Dittmeier & the Sawdusters new album “All Damn Day”

Nick Dittmeier & the Saw Dusters

The second full album from Nick Dittmeier & the Sawdusters is an enjoyable southern country rock romp, offering a varied selection of lively toe-tapping songs and melodic, reflective pieces. What holds it all together is Dittmeier’s authentic storytelling. These ten character-driven tales are packed with arresting details and bear repeated listening. The opening track ‘Love Me Like You Did’ starts and finishes with the vocal, drawing the listener in immediately and ensuring the focus is on the lyrics. The song’s narrator complains about his new lover: “She don’t understand Townes Van Zandt…She don’t know me like you did,” which seems to make an early statement about Dittmeier’s country credentials.

The opener sets the tone for much of the album. Jaunty, upbeat rhythms and melodies often mask bleak lyrics and sharp phrasing, such as: “He worked real hard and he worked real smart, Got a pretty good spot at the city graveyard” from ‘Head to Rest’. The longer, more introspective songs are punctuated by short, rocky numbers with a higher tempo and simpler structures, including the title track, which chugs along, while Dittmeier sings about hard physical labour and: “…hammering rocks, all damn day.”
One of the album’s highlights is the reflective tale ‘Two Faded Carnations’,in which the narrator visits a family cemetery to lay carnations at the graves of: “The only one I’ve ever loved and the daughter I never met.” But the song is ultimately hopeful because: “Spring’s around the corner, I can feel it in the wind, it rips right down a soy bean plain and the rows grow strong again.”” 

This is ‘country’ music and so it is only right that Dittmeier’s stories are full of references to rural living and landscapes. The characters are chopping wood, sitting on porches, fishing, staking out deer and complaining about the……READ MORE

Chase McBride shares new single “Pieces” at Glide Magazine

Chase McBride’s painterly folk is imbued with pop optimism, his sense for rhythm and melody, and his gentle voice. His previous albums Cold Water and Green Shade have found viral success on streaming platforms, but about his latest Pink Lemonade (out 11/30) he says “This album, from an aesthetic standpoint, feels the most like me.” The album was co-produced Andrew Heringer (Milo Greene), prolific songwriter, producer and engineer, and recorded at Heringer’s Mirror Wall Studio in Beachwood Canyon, LA. “He understood the vision that I had for these songs and was adept at channeling that into a recorded version; also creating an environment where I felt comfortable enough to experiment and try sounds whether or not they were going to work…” READ MORE…

Nick Dittmeier & the Sawdusters share two new singles with The Daily Country

 

Nick Dittmeier & the Saw Dusters

Southern Indiana alt-country/Americana outfit Nick Dittmeier & the Sawdusters have shared singles from their forthcoming LP All Damn Day, due October 26th. Wide Open Country praised Dittmeier’s songcraft on “Love Me Like You Did” as “heartland rock riffage meets classic country storytelling” while Glide compared the group favorable to the likes of John Fogerty and Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Southern Indiana musician Nick Dittmeier finds a needed reprieve from the looming presence of loss in his life with his new record All Damn Day (due October 26th). Fronting Nick Dittmeier & the Sawdusters, the singer-songwriter lingers on the omniscient Grim Reaper in a way that’s hopeful and uplifting as it is forlorn, harkening to the works of such literary giants as John Steinbeck, Ernest Hemingway, Roald Dahl and Mark Twain.

“I look at this record as a continuation of a lot of storytelling by these writers. Their themes touch on a lot of forgotten people, working class people and characters that have impossible situations in front of them,” says Dittmeier, who also draws heavily upon the work of Frank Bill, Dave Eggers, Kurt Vonnegut and Daniel Woodrall. His perceptiveness in his craft is refreshing and has so far earned him stage slots with the likes of Cody Jinks, John Prine, Turnpike Troubadours, Justin Townes Earle, The Mavericks and several others.

Suffice it to say, he needed this cathartic musical release to come to terms with a handful of challenging life events. “I went through a lot of deaths when I was starting to record this album,” he says. “So, a lot of the songs touch on people dying, something I normally wouldn’t have done.” His mother-in-law succumbed to an aggressive form of cancer, and he honors her life and homestead on the exceptional “Two Faded Carnations,” written during a lonesome drive from Salem to Scottsburg, Indiana, nestled deep….READ MORE
