If I Dropped By… with Louis Epstein of HITS

Have you ever wondered what would happen if you decided to be random and drop by a musician’s home? No?  Well, I have.  So, I posed my, "If I Dropped By..." question to HITS frontman, Louis Epstein.  This is what I learned about my host when I paid a hypothetical visit to his home.

Quirky NY Chick (QNYC): ... and brought a friend who didn't know your music, what song of yours would you play for them and why?

Louis Epstein (LE): I'd casually play well-known songs from bands like The Talking Heads and Talk Talk and Tom Waits who just talks sometimes, while I slipped in a HITS song here and there, so when it stood out, they'd say, "Wait. Who's this?" I could say, "What this? Oh weird this is actually MY band. Why? Do you like it?"

Song of the Day: Dancing Heals - "Always On My Mind"

Earlier this month, Australian band Dancing Heals released their single "Always On My Mind". Their debut album, Into The Night, saw them receiving favorable reviews.  They are currently working on their second album.  Check out the track below.

Dancing Heals are currently finishing up their second album, that captures more of their live sound and draws from longtime influences such as Tom Petty and Fleetwood Mac.

Dancing Heals love to wave the nostalgia flag and “Always On My Mind” is no different. A sonically raw reflection on the confusing emotions of letting someone go... and never forgetting.  With their unique brand of sultry indie pop, made for the masses, Dancing Heals are ready to take over the music world. Singer Jon-Lee Farrell's voice is smooth and haunting throughout the track, with echoing guitars and unforgettable harmonies that will certainly intrigue and charm you.

Q & A with Josh Rigal of Little Brother Eli

Earlier this year, some fellas from the UK caught my ear.  I took an instant liking to their sound which is a warm mix of blues, soul and rock. They are, Little Brother Eli.

The band has been working on an EP that we'll be able to hear on April 25. Naturally, I wanted to know more about the band so, I sent some questions over and Josh Rigal from the band sent over some answers. This is the result of our ‘e-chat’.

Quirky NY Chick (QNYC): Tell us a little about yourself. How did the band come together?

Josh Rigal (JR): Me and Alex (Grew), other than being best friends, had played together for years in our old band before it broke up in 2010. We met up in April of 2012, we were just hanging out, playing bits of music and ended up writing a song called Mary. From then it just took off for us, more and more songs just started flowing organically.

After we had written all this material we decided to get a band together - consisting of the talented Linus Taylor and Adam Stowe on guitars and Benji Page on drums (with myself on bass and Alex on vocals).

Caught My Ear: Hannah & Maggie

 

Sometimes it takes me a while to get around to listening to things ... work, life and stuff are time consuming.  So, I often tuck things aside to listen to later which I generally do.  At times, things get buried and I happen across it again usually while looking for something else I've tucked away.  I happened upon Hannah and Maggie in my "listen to later" file.  I finally listened and guess what?  I like what I heard.  Their harmonies are sharp and crystal clear; the vocals are very pretty.  They released an album, Muscle & Bone last year.  The tour video below features the track "Burlington, VT" from the album.  My pick for album highlight is "Curfew".

Mission South Release New Album and Video

 

DC based band Mission South released their delightful album, Migration Vol. 2 last week.  I'm really digging this release.  The record shines with a soulful groove that wraps itself around you like an old friend.  The highlights are ... the whole EP!  There's not one song on this effort that I don't like. 

They recently released a terrific video for the track "Peaches".  Check it out below.

Paul McCartney To Reissue Wings Over America & Rockshow

Paul McCartney announced last week that Wings' live album from 1976, Wings Over America, will be re-released May 27.  Also being released, for the first time on DVD, the live concert film Rockshow.  I might have, most likely, yeah I did, squeal a tiny bit upon hearing the news.  These are the releases I've been wanting since the first of the Archive Collection was rolled out a few years ago.  Out of all of McCartney's work, Wings Over America is probably the album I listen to most.  I'll be emptying my piggy bank for this folks.

Wings Over America will be released as a Deluxe Box Set, a two disc Standard Edition and a three disc Vinyl Edition.  As with the previous archive collections, the deluxe edition is full of goodies.  What's in the massive box set?  For starters, of course you get the Wings Over America album, re-mastered at Abby Road plus a live CD recorded at San Francisco's Cow Palace and a DVD containing the 75 minute TV special Wings Over The World.  I may or may not admit to having non-legitimate copies of the last two items at some point...so, I may or may not need to say 'sorry Macca!'

Oh, but wait, that's not all.  There are four books included too.  There's the 110 page commemorative Tour Book, the leatherette-bound Tour Itinerary, Look! a book of Linda McCartney photos featuring Wings on the road and lastly, The Ocean View a book of drawings and sketches capturing the band on tour by Humphrey Ocean.  The Tour Itinerary book alone contains a mountain of stuff or as the promotional material calls it, 'extravagant memorabilia' ... an appropriate description.

On June 10, Rockshow will be released by Eagle Rock on both DVD and Blu-ray.  I'm excited to finally have this on DVD; my VHS edition had to be put to rest.  The footage was shot on tour in 1976 in Seattle.

It was originally released on Betamax (later on laserdisc) but it’s only now that the complete full length concert is being made available fully restored from the original 35mm film and with restored & remastered sound, including a 5.1 mix for the first time.

‘Rockshow’ Theatrical Release

And then third, but by no means least, Eagle Rock has partnered with distributors Specticast who are releasing the film theatrically worldwide for a ‘one night only’ event on May 15th (see here for more details: www.rockshowonscreen.com) – meaning the film will be shown in more than 500 cinemas across the world!

The theatrical release features an exclusive introduction with Paul McCartney, but there will also be an exclusive VIP premiere screening of ‘Rockshow’, with Paul in attendance and introducing the film, at BAFTA on 15 May 2013.

Q & A with Neo-Funk Rock Violinist Adia

I recently got turned on to the work of neo-funk rock violinist Adia.  The Chicago based musician caught my ear with her insane skill.  Her violin sings and wails like an electric guitar and left me saying 'hold up, I've gotta hear that again!'  My curiosity was peaked and you all know what happens when I’m curious, I ask questions.  We sent some questions over to Adia and this is the result of our e-chat.

Quirky NY Chick (QNYC): Tell us a little about yourself. How did you get started playing violin?

Adia: I began playing the violin when I was 3 ½. I was always musical, singing or sounding out melodies on the piano, so my mom decided to put me in violin lessons. I really enjoyed playing it and fell in love.

(QNYC): How would you describe your sound to those who may be unfamiliar with your work?

Adia: Its basically a reflection of my diverse background, a mix of alternative rock and soul and funk I grew up with.  I like to call it neo soul rock.

Q & A with Charles Davis of Cherokee Red

Cherokee Red landed on my radar about a month, maybe two months ago.  I’ve fallen for their tracks "Nightmares & Lullabies" and “Heavy Soul” which led me to wanting to know more about the band.  With their self-titled debut album being released April 16, and a show at Bowery Electric the same night, it seemed like the perfect time to get to know a bit more about the band.

I sent over some questions; the band's Charles Davis sent over some answers. This is the result of our Q& A. Check it out below.

Quirky NY Chick (QNYC): Tell us a little about yourself.  How did the band come together?

Charles Davis (CD): Did and does come through the singing siren of our home city Wilkes- Barre, PA and our mutual respect for one another.
