One Track Mind: A Fragile Tomorrow, “Waters ..A Fragile Tomorrow continues to explore 1980s indie-rock sounds here, even as they steadily build upon those core influences. Fragile’s most recent album underscored their abiding passion for jangle-pop, even featuring turns by the dBs’ Peter Holsapple and the Indigo Girls’ Amy Ray. This new track, however, swerves into edgier fare — as the South Carolina-based group not only covers [...]Something Else! Reviews2 April 2012

Trim in dress or appearance; neat; smart; dapper. Spruce has an unusual history. It literally meant "from Prussia" (or Pruce). It came to be associated with the tree which was brought by Prussian merchants to England. The sense of "to make dapper" came about from a type of coat, the spruce jerkin, that was made with leather from Prussia.

Kevn Kinney & The Golden Palominos – “A Good ..There used to be a time in college radio in the late 80′s and early nineties that a Golden Palominos record was a big deal.

R.E.M.'s Mike Mills on the Band's Most Under ..Alternative godfathers and four-time SPIN cover stars R.E.M. ended a 30-year career of defining generations and defying MTV with no fanfare beyond an website announcement . The band's Mike Mills told SPIN last week , "There was no moment of clarity," as he kicked his feet up on the Warner Brothers furniture, explaining that the split was a slow-burner that had been in the works since 2008. Thankfully, Warner Bros. is issuing a proper eulogy in the form of a career-spanning greatest hits set. The two-disc retrospective Part Lies, Part Heart, Part Truth, Part Garbage is their first to ...Spin17 November 2011

Radio Free Song ClubFor the past year and a half, I've been hanging out with some of my friends about once a month to record a podcast called the Radio Free Song Club. I'm there as a photographer, but the others assembled are songwriters, musicians, sound engineers and visiting guests. It's hosted by Nick Hill (formerly of the Music Faucet on WFMU) and singer-songwriter Kate Jacobs. Dave Schramm is the bandleader, and is joined by a semi-rotating band known as The Radio Free All Stars, which includes David Mansfield, JD Foster, Jeremy Chatzky, Doug Wieselman, Andy Burton, Paul Moschella, Ted ...boogie woogie flu21 June 2011

One Track Mind: A Fragile Tomorrow, "I Just ..Photo from A Fragile Tomorrow's ReverbNation page by Nick DeRiso A Fragile Tomorrow builds out from the country-rock synthesis of pathfinders like the Band and the Byrds , starting with the new-wave attitude and propulsive rhythms of descendent bands like R.E.M. and the dBs. But there's something else, lodged in amidst the brailing mandolin and stamping beat, this heartfelt gravitas. Turns out, this South Carolina-based group is one of those classic five-year overnight success stories. "I Just Never Said Enough," the featured track on "The Song of the Fortnight" (a terrific new online showcase from the Chucktown ...Something Else!25 February 2011

Music, Social Media...And The National Anthe ..This morning on the way to work, my Ipod battery gave out. Seems the newer ones don’t charge automatically by simply being attached to the car radio like the older ones did. Digging around for CD’s to satisfy my music fix, I happened upon a homemade burn of the third and fourth LP’s by Flo and Eddie. I know these records are great and way under appreciated by the mass populous, but today for some reason that fact hit home more than usual. So as soon as I got to work, I opened up Facebook, and wrote ...Rock NYC10 February 2011

AMERICAN SONGS: "Return of the Grievous Ange ..Gram Parsons--"Return of the Grievous Angel" (mp3) One could probably put together a list of the best American songs and then discover that, wait a second, they've all been written by Gram Parsons. Consider this list, for example: 1. "Hickory Wind" 2. "Sin City" 3. "Wheels" 4. "A Song For You" 5. "Return of the Grievous Angel" If you don't know all of these songs, I'll wager you've heard at least some of them, as performed by The Byrds, Bob Mould, Emmylou Harris, The Flying Burrito Brothers, Peter Holsapple, and, best of all, Gram himself ...Bottom of the Glass11 October 2010
