R. Finn Announces new LP, ‘Collecting Trip,’ Listen to “Quiet House”

Folk/Americana singer/songwriter R. Finn (aka Chris Rondinella) has officially announced his forthcoming debut LP, Collecting Trip, out 1/19. Co-produced by Jim Keltner (Bob Dylan, Neil Young, John Lennon), the album’s first single, “Quiet House,” premiered at Glide, who said, “It’s impossible to ignore the song’s rustic, heartfelt tone that is brought to life by Finn’s reflective lyrics and warm harmonies.”
?
?With his new debut, Collecting Trip, R. Finn has created a heartfelt album rooted in timeless Americana and colored by subtly lush, alternately haunting and hopeful arrangements. The Southern California songwriter took the long way around on this journey, some of his songs on the record tracing back nearly a decade.

The LP’s title not only references the “collecting trips” taken by folk musicologists John and Alan Lomax, but also what the album represents to Finn: All the years of accumulating songs, players, styles and gear that have resulted in his affecting, long-evolving sound. And then there’s his deep devotion as a student of songwriting and music history. “I’m just trying to do what I love and what I listen to,” Finn says. “I’m always trying to evoke Ray Charles or Woody Guthrie.”

The Peoria Journal-Star interviews Craig Gerdes

LACON — As a precocious young boy growing up in Marshall County, Craig Gerdes could close his eyes and picture the scene set by Kris Kristofferson’s country classic, “Sunday Mornin’ Comin’ Down.” It resembled much of the life he observed around him.

Once he began to write his own country songs, starting at the age of 10 or 11 and continuing on to the present day, he kept the imagery of that song in mind — observed, recognizable moments that were unafraid to recognize the struggles of life.

“That’s what makes country music to me,” Gerdes said. “It’s just about real life. It’s not necessarily happy or joyful times. There can be a lot of hard times.

“Not tailgates and bonfires and stuff like that. The struggle is what makes it country.”

Gerdes has called Pattonsburg home for most of his life, an unincorporated and distinctly rural portion of Marshall County a handful of miles east of Washburn. After spending a couple of years in Nashville sleeping on floors and shopping songs that he wrote, Gerdes returned to Pattonsburg a little disaffected but still inspired. The result is a new album out in February, titled “Smokin’ Drinkin’ & Gamblin’,” and a concert at Whiskerz Pub in Lacon on Dec. 23 alongside fellow outlaw country musician Dallas Moore.

The album’s stark title doesn’t explain exactly what Gerdes had in mind while writing it. Instead of evoking the hard-living man at the poker table, it’s actually about the music business from his point of view — the smoke and mirrors of the industry, the alcohol accompanying every function and his idea that there’s no bigger gamble than a music career.

The songs on “Smokin’ Drinkin’ & Gamblin’” often express a road-weariness about “ramblin’ life away” in Gerdes’ honky-tonk fashion. The details are almost surely derived from his time trekking to Nashville and then back to his wife and kids in Pattonsburg from 2011 to 2015. The seven-hour commute afforded Gerdes plenty of time to gin up characters and details for his songs, but it ultimately wore him down. By 2015, he had given up any pretense of a country career and settled back home permanently.

“I felt like I needed to go,” Gerdes said. “I needed to get out of there.”

But it wasn’t long until music drew him back in as he realized that the world was a lot bigger than just Nashville and that he should take his music to the people.

“I needed to take my music all over the country,” Gerdes said.

That’s been Gerdes’ itinerary ever since, hitting barrooms, small clubs and any other venue that will take him. He’ll drive himself to a place like Omaha on a Friday afternoon to play a few gigs that weekend, whether it’s for a hundred people or just three or four. What matters to Gerdes anymore isn’t the amount of people during the show but the ones that approach him afterward, who feel as if one of his songs perfectly described their life. Many have responded in a digital format to his song “That Little Girl,” about his daughter, which has almost 200,000 views on Facebook.

“It makes me feel like I’m making people’s lives better, if it’s just for four minutes,” Gerdes said. “To me, that is successful.”

A return to Nashville for his album release party on Feb. 14 is in the works, but Gerdes is more focused on the upcoming show Saturday in Lacon. He digs the Whiskerz venue and is excited to have his friend and collaborator Moore around his neck of the woods. He’ll show him around some places, including where much of his songwriting has taken place in his life.

“A lot of the songs that I wrote over a period of time was on that front porch in good ol’ Marshall County,” Gerdes said.

The Deli Magazine LA reviews Cheap Tissue’s latest track “Dirt”

Cheap Tissue brings brash and fun energy on “Dirt”

Cheap Tissue don’t go out of their way to make nice. The skate punk foursome plays lean, short songs with fast tempos and pulverizing guitar parts that ring true to their defiant credo of pure, unadulterated rock n’ roll. And though first single “Dirt” rips with iron-fisted grit, there’s also a likable idealism in their raucous delivery that invites a congenial response.

“Dirt” can be found on Cheap Tissue’s forthcoming self-titled full-length, which is out on March 2 via Lollipop Records. You’re also welcome to crash their party at The Echo during their three-week residency this coming January 2018. READ MORE…

New Noise premieres People’s Blues of Richmond’s “Cocaine Powder”

We’re pleased to bring you the premiere of People’s Blues of Richmond’s re-recording of their song “Cocaine Powder” (listen below). The original version was an acoustic track off their album Good Time Suicide.

Bassist Matthew Volkes commented on re-recording the song:

“We had flown out to California for a West Coast tour and had a day off in San Francisco, and our friend Pamela Parker, an engineer at Hyde Street Studio, invited us to come do a session . Hyde Street Studio has a lot of history there a ton of amazing artists have recorded there including Dead Kennedys, Grateful Dead, Santana, CSNY, Cake, Green Day, Tupac… the list goes on forever so we immediately said ‘yes.’ When we play ‘Cocaine Powder’ live it’s always super manic, loud, and has a lot of dramatic changes. We wanted to record something that had that same element.” Read more…

What Youth premieres Beechwood’s new single “C F”

NYC-based glam punk trio Beechwood are no strangers to the dirty side of the law. Earlier this year, drummer and vocalist Isa Tineo and bassist Sydney Simons were arrested during an outdoor show for “reckless endangerment, criminal mischief, resisting arrest, obstructing government administration and disorderly conduct.” The whole thing was caught on social media and made its way to headlines in NY Daily News. Welcome to rock ‘n’ roll, boys. Considering Beechwood remind me most prominently of notorious rebels Brian Jonestown and My Bloody Valentine, I wouldn’t expect anything less from these punks. Check out their new single for “C/F,” off forthcoming LP Songs From the Land of Nod, dropping January 26th via Alive Naturalsound. It’s languid, drippy, like molasses spilling out of a jar, and the vocals do a subtle Kevin Shields thing in my brain. So listen to the track, and read guitarist Gordon Lawrence’s description of the song below. –Maya Eslami

“I wrote C/F when I was in a dark period in my life. I woke up everyday struggling to find any real meaning to be awake. As a result, I continuously made myself numb to my surroundings, to my feelings, and to the people around me. I almost stopped trying altogether. Luckily, in my darkest moments I’ve always had music to get me through the day. Depression is something that is hard to talk about, and it is even harder to ask for help because it feels like a never-ending pit. You get so far down that you don’t even know which way is up anymore. I found it hard to even look at my guitar when I was at my worst, let alone pick it up. Eventually I was able to, and every time I picked it up I just began to play the chords C and F over and over again. There was something therapeutic about playing those two chords, and I got this song out of it.”

The 405 premieres Cheap Tissue’s new single, “Up My Sleeve”

LA-based punks Cheap Tissue have built up a reputation already in the Los Angeles scene, with support slots for The Vibrators and The Zeros under their belts. But in 2018 Cheap Tissue will be making their own unadulterated statement with the self-titled debut album arriving in March.

Ahead of that, The 405 has the pleasure of premiering ‘Up My Sleeve’, 2 minutes of breakneck punk harking back to the very core of what the genre stands for. 2 minutes of fast paced and frantic music isn’t a lot of time for singer Andrew Taylor to get across all of his complex thoughts, as he relives his battle with heroin, though he certainly gives it his all. He has described in full the thought process behind and the journey to making ‘Up My Sleeve’:

“I always seem to melt down and push in the pin/ Ha, call me back tomorrow cause I’ve fallen back again.”“I mean.. I guess anything about somebody being strung out can be cathartic just by being bluntly honest and not trying to hide anything, but there’s still nothing pretty. It’s not a joke, it happened. I lost a toe and almost my life?,? several times. But I guess somebody can find solace in the fact that shit can get really dark and there can be a positive spin on it based ?on? what you can learn from your experiences (whether they’re positive or negative), how those experiences can influence who you are (again, in both good and bad ways), and how you can rise above everything while still simultaneously battling the same issues and continuously attempting to grow from your experience.

“Another main point of the song is being judged for being “that type” of person while trying to come up in the real world and prove to people that you’re not just piece of shit. Life ain’t easy for a junkie in his twenties with no college degree. Thankfully it’s been a very long time since I’ve used… well, used heroin at least. I am most certainly not sober… or a saint. Not gonna lie, I’m still a mess at times. But I guess the point is that it’s not how it used to be. Best way to describe it would be ??the difference between a Crackhouse and a dive bar.

“I actually wrote this song when I was twenty and used it briefly in a previous band I had with Jesse. When him and I started Cheap Tissue, we took it, changed a thing or two and it was one of the first songs we wrote as a band and one of the first songs Jesse and I wrote together period. So you could say that it was the first song written on ?th??is? record.”

No more introduction is necessary after that, so listen to the single ‘Up My Sleeve’ below.
