The Tennessean: Tim Easton teams up with Aaron Lee Tasjan & the McCrary Sisters to cover ‪‎Bob Dylan‬ for charity

When East Nashville troubadour Tim Easton wanted to find a way to support his community this holiday season, he enlisted the help of some local musicians.

In late October he went into EastSide Manor Studios with engineer Gabe Masterson, gospel dynamos The McCrary Sisters, who were born and raised in Nashville, and singer-songwriters Aaron Lee Tasjan and Megan Palmer (who is part of Easton’s songwriting collective called Campfire Propaganda) to record a soulful cover of Bob Dylan’s “Whatcha Gonna Do?”

They wanted to cover a song that was “spiritual and written by an American musical icon,” Easton explained. The song is also easy enough to teach to a band on the spot, an added benefit when considering the multiple schedules that had to be coordinated to get all the artists in the studio at the same time (the record was recorded almost entirely live).

Easton, who’s working on a new album that will be released in April and midway through a project where he posts 100 live performance videos to his YouTube channel in 100 days, decided to record the track to raise awareness for the Nashville Rescue Mission and to encourage community participation and support for the organization. The mission offers food, clothing and shelter to the homeless and addiction recovery counseling and resources to those in need in Middle Tennessee. READ MORE…

Mass Appeal checks in with KONCEPT & J57 on their history and their new EP, The Fuel, as the NYC duo rides its passionate DIY ethos straight to mainstream success

The tale of New York rapper Keith “Koncept” Whitehead and his partner in crime, producer Jimmy “J57” Heinz, dates back to September 2006. Koncept had just returned home to New York after attending college in Vermont and decided to stop into his favorite record store, Fat Beats. When he walked in, J57 was playing his own beats, and some cats were rapping over them. “So I asked if I could jump in the cypher, as the rap guys say,” Koncept tells me. “So I jumped in, and kicked these raps, and then me and J started talking and building, and we exchanged info.” Soon after, the two artists got into the studio and started recording together.

At the time, J57 was working at Fat Beats, and got Koncept a job there, which both describe as a “dream come true.” It was there that they met DeeJay Element, DJ E-Holla, Soul Khan, and The Audible Doctor, and formed The Brown Bag AllStars, bonding over a love and appreciation of New York hip hop. “We’d play all the classic hip hop artists you’d listen to growing up in New York,” J explains. “Like Wu-Tang, Jay Z, Nas, A Tribe Called Quest, Busta. But at the same time, we were also playing UGK and T.I., which I’d get yelled at for,” J laughs. “It wasn’t cool to do that in New York back then.” Over time, they expanded their horizons and started playing a more diverse mix of music, which included artists like Björk and Radiohead.

Excellent review of The Head’s new EP Millipedes at Creative Loafing Atlanta

Twenty-somethings Jacob Morrell (guitar), Jack Shaw (drums), and Mike Shaw (vocals, bass) demonstrate pop knowledge and mastery beyond their years with the Head’s Millipedes EP. The band revisits college radio’s halcyon days with “Jesus,” a song driven by three chords of fuzz and dripping with self-defeat. Upbeat anthem “It Ain’t Easy” comes from an even darker place, as it is about Newtown gunman Adam Lanza’s relationship with his father. Southern indie and Northwestern grunge darkness give way to less gloomy British traditions on the remaining tracks. The most rewarding of these is “Pebbles on the Ground,” a multi-faceted, unpretentious nod to ’80s noise pop giants. There is enough variety and creativity stretched across six songs to set the standards high for the group’s future. ????? READ MORE…

PopMatters premieres Ian Fisher’s video for “Nero,” the title track from his new debut LP

Raised on a farm in Missouri but now based in Berlin, Americana singer-songwriter Ian Fisher released his latest album Nero last month. He’s put together a video for his gorgeous and plaintive title track, which you can see below.

“I wrote the song ‘Nero’ on a lonely guest bed in the 16th District of Vienna, Austria, in the autumn of 2009,” he tells PopMatters. It, like myself and the city in which it was written, is drowned in a type of hopeless nostalgia. A type that is aware of its own fickleness, but persists in spite of its futility. My personal brand of nostalgia that found its way into the song comes from two common themes. The first being youth and, more specifically, that slow climb down the side of the fence that separates it from adulthood. The second being the destruction and subsequent reconstruction of the idea of home. I suppose those are two pretty natural themes for a 22-year-old expatriate.

“This is a special video for me. I made it this summer with some old friends in the city where the song was born, Vienna. It could only have been made there and only with those specific people. It was directed by Jakob Kubizek and filmed by Valentin Wanker. The star of the video is the Austrian comedian Hosea Ratschiller. The three of them were some of the first people to hear the song soon after I wrote it back in 2009. After hearing it one time, Hosea had already given the song its current title and Jakob had come up with the concept for the video. Little did we know then that it would be six years before I’d release the track and we’d make the video. Fortunately, the concept aged well with time. I’m proud to watch it now and see just how deeply the actor and director understood the song. It feels like they made it their own and there’s nothing more beautiful than writing a song that is no longer only yours.” WATCH HERE…
