Because of this week’s Twitter argument between Chris Taylor Brown (singer of that song that goes “Headstrong – I’ll take you on,” no other notable successes) and the rest of the music industry, I decided to sit down and listen to a few of his other popular songs. After a few shots, I tried my […]
Okee dokee folks… “Splendid Isolation” is a song by the late, great Warren Zevon. Seventeen years after his death it has now become a theme song for most of the planet. Social distancing is the new norm and we have whittled down the the allowable crowd size from 250 to 10 or fewer. Hugs and […]
In the wake of increased efforts to contain the coronavirus in our capital city, Tight Crew’s upcoming Jurassic Ruckus party has been moved. The prehistoric-themed celebration of music and rave subculture was originally scheduled for April 18 at Fete in PVD. Fortunately, the show will go on — in a major way! In a post […]
Okee dokee folks… Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour turned 74 years old a couple of days ago, and Roger Waters is 76 as is Nick Mason. Founding members Richard Wright and Syd Barrett have passed away. The band has not played together in many, many years and for all intents and purposes Pink Floyd is […]
Don’t even worry, your Saturday plans are booked and they are awesome. With International Women’s Day coming up (it’s Sunday) PVDLive and La Boheme Noir et. Co, an organization dedicated to hosting “thoughtfully curated events allowing humans to connect,” are joining together to present Gang de Filles: An International Women and Non-Binary Celebration. This is […]
by Simru Sonmez-Erbil As soon as the opening strains of “Footprints” rang out across The Veterans Memorial Auditorium, I knew it was going to be very hard to keep my camera still. My feet wanted to move, and keep moving. Squeeze brought their Squeeze Songbook 2020 Tour to the VETS on February 23 and blew the […]
Fluffernutter — “Got It So Bad” / “Got What You Came For” Single Fluffernutter is an all-star local collaboration between multi-instrumentalist / all things recording wizard Kraig Jordan and vocalist Jodie Treloar. Billed as “pop sex metal,” Fluffernutter lives up the hype while managing to sound nothing like Poison. One listen to “Got It So […]
Okee dokee folks… Last week Neil Young posted an open letter calling Drumpf “a disgrace to my country.” He also called out Captain Bone Spurs for continuing to use the song “Keep On Rockin’ in The Free World” despite Young’s disapproval. He went on to add that one of Don the Con’s opponents has “the […]
The Z-Boys – Elwood Here’s (I’m assuming) a Motif exclusive: Elwood, the sophomore album from Newport’s The Z-Boys, hits the streets March 6. They’re a band known for their high-energy performances. With tempos and influences all over the place, it’s like a dump truck careening along the edge of a canyon road. Fans will be […]
Nashville, Austin … Kent County? Rhode Island isn’t necessarily the first place that comes to mind when you think of country music, but it might not be too much of a stretch to associate the two. On the shores of Lake Mishnock in West Greenwich stands an unofficial symbol of the state’s country music scene: […]
