Die neuseeländische Musikerin Phillipa Brown, besser bekannt als Ladyhawke, hat ihr zweites Album mit dem Titel "Anxiety" fertiggestellt. Der Langspieler wird am 16. März bei Universal Music veröffentlicht und präsentiert zehn taufrische Songs aus der Feder der Songschreiberin. Für die Produktion hat sich Brown Zeit gelassen und ganze 18 Monate an dem Nachfolger ihres selbstbetitelten Debüts gearbeitet. Neben der gewohnten Eingängigkeit, die auf 80er-Jahre-Referenzen trifft, legt die Künstlerin ihren Fokus diesmal stärker auf ihre Rock-Wurzeln. So soll der Hörer viel signifikantere Gitarren-Riffs auf "Anxiety" serviert bekommen, wie es die erste Single "Black, White & Blue" bereits demonstriert. Passend zu ihrer Affinität ...

Steve Five, Peter Sustarsic y Travis Tonn son los miembros de este trío de Brooklyn (como no) formado en el año 2007 y que cuentan con tres álbumes y varios Ep's a sus espaldas. Sin embargo, no ha sido hasta la publicación de "Works On Paper" su último trabajo, cuando han empezado a llamar la atención de ciertos medios y a aparecer frecuentemente por la blogosfera musical. Un disco autoeditado el pasado Otoño, pero que ve en estos días su lanzamiento oficial, y en el que han trabajado con Perry Margouleff( Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, Soundgarden) y Todd Tobías (Guided ...

This was a significant pop album, in all the more positive ways of the word. Cyndi Lauper emerged onto the music scene around the same time as Madonna . This was extremely unfortunate because that rather defined her career ever since. Of the two, she was everything her contemporary Madonna was not; she had talent, she had a distinctive style, she wrote a lot of her own music and she demanded from the start to be her own person. Madonna won in the long run, oddly by copying a lot of what Cyndi Lauper had initially stood for - independence, self-reliance and ...

I snapped this just last week. How…timely. Cyndi Lauper & Sarah McLachlan : Time After Time [ purchase ] Cassandra Wilson : Time After Time [ purchase ] Here's a 1983 classic that always seems more recent to me than it is…I have to remember that the 80s were 30-ish years ago. A boatload of covers exist for this song from artists all over the musical spectrum: I've got ones from Willy Nelson, Miles Davis, Bon Jovi, Ronan Keating, and Matchbox 20. It's got cross-genre appeal, for sure. The first version I've posted is a self-cover from Cyndi's 2005 album ...

Across a multi-decade career that has included work with Stan Getz, Gerry Mulligan, Gary Burton, Pat Metheny, Phil Woods and Freddie Hubbard, pianist Mitchel Forman has also aligned himself with such top-tier vocalists as Mel Tormé, Astrud Gilberto, Janis Siegel and Diane Schuur. But for this duets project, Forman focuses primarily on lesser-known and emerging jazz singers. Among them, only Tierney Sutton, contributing an ethereal “Turning Into Blue” and a magnificent, roiling “What Are You Doing the Rest of Your Life?,” is a marquee name. The remaining six are an eclectic bunch, extending from twentysomething Lizzy Loeb (daughter of singer ...
