Not sure if I have flagged to this particular space just how much this makes the hairs on my neck tingle …

A Los Angeles (Echo Park) folk outfit signed to Chrysalis Music Publishing. Debut EP produced by Mike Daly (Whiskeytown) and Michael Beinhorn (Soundgarden, RHCP).  The band consists of Jason Mandell (vocals, guitar), Darice Bailey (keys, vocals), Jason Debo (bass, vocals) and JR Kurtz (drums). Also singing on the recordings is Sutter Zachman and Sara Watkins, a mainstay at the Largo scene in Los Angeles. Venues they have played to date include LA scenes – Largo (residency), Spaceland, Silverlake Lounge, the Bootleg Theater and even The Press in Claremont. Personally – I like the sound a lot. Riding that wave of Folk Rock that abounds – but a nice varied sound – and somehow different. Oh wait – actually – I agree with their label promotion … they are “minus the cuteness or irony that soaks so much of today’s folk music.” - Yup – that’s it. The Coals @ Chrsalis – their new label Passed on – with thanks to : Jason Mandel of the The Coals – who made me aware of the music and the release. Thankyou Jason Jerry – doing his stuff. the lyrics .. If my words did glow with the gold of sunshine Would you hear my voice come thru the music,
Would you hold it near as it were your own? Its a hand-me-down, the thoughts are broken, Ripple in still water, Reach out your hand if your cup be empty, Let it be known there is a fountain,
That was not made by the hands of men. There is a road, no simple highway, Ripple in still water, But if you fall, you fall alone, the video … Just been watching a PBS thingy featuring ‘Bob’ … friggin awesome ‘string manager’ …. They say he is an “acoustic guitar virtuoso”. The Hendrix of the Accoustic Guitar …. do we know – any comments ? |
