Dan Griffin :: "Yulia" [Wolf Parade cover] ..It's no long list of great songs about death in space. David Bowie's "Space Oddity" and the Long Winters' "The Commander Thinks Aloud" both address this area with deft; Bowie spitting a magically real heartbreak about the relationship between Major Tom and Ground Control; John Roderick of the Long Winters documenting in the assumed first-person the last moments of the Space Shuttle Columbia, ending with the repeated and echoing lyric, "The crew compartment's breaking up." Wolf Parade 's "Yulia" off their tweaking and perfect 2010 record Expo 86 addresses an apocryphal Soviet legend of cosmonauts hurriedly sent ...32ft/sec27 April 2012

New Music Video: Lindsay FullerSeattle songwriter Lindsay Fuller pays tribute to her Southern roots with a passionate breed of gothic songwriting. In the case of her single for "One More Song", that means something rich, yet tough as nails. The song comes from her ATO debut You, Anniversary, and brings with it a cinematic video staring The Long Winters' John Roderick as a charismatic minister. Warning...

[Future Faves?] Anticipated 2012 Album Relea ..It's a bit behind schedule, but here's my annual list of recorded releases I'm most looking forward to this year. A handful of 2012 Tuesdays have already passed, but the lag time allowed me to sneak in a bunch of just-announced full-lengths. I've included those that have already hit shelves (or servers), along with some rumored speculation and a couple of wishful thoughts to wrap it up. If something's not here, it's either due to apathy, ignorance, or forgetfulness. Your mission? Fill in the gaps. What'd I miss? What do I need to ...Bradley's Almanac22 February 2012

On The List :: John Roderick @ Mercury Loung ..This review runs live, first and in color at the Bowery Presents' House List blog. The first time I saw John Roderick was with his full band, the Long Winters, at a now-defunct East L.A. venue back in 2008. He was in rock-star mode with long hair and a loud maroon jacket, and he never took off his sunglasses. But on Saturday night, a mellower version, perhaps a more authentic Roderick,32ft/sec31 January 2012

Kathleen Edwards - Voyageur (2012)Let’s just say it, get it out in the open, so then we can just realize that it is absolutely irrelevant and move on: Kathleen Edwards is dating Bon Iver front man Justin Vernon. We good? Ok! Moving on… What is relevant and interesting is Kathleen Edwards' and Justin Vernon’s producing collaboration on Edwards’ stunning fourth album, Voyageur . The Bon Iver ubermensch, aside from being Edwards’ co-producer, also serves as multi-instrumentalist and background singer. Where Vernon’s contribution is most evident, aside from his beautiful backing vocals (especially on 'Change the Sheets'), is a sobering of Edwards’ usual ...Music Emissions28 January 2012

John Roderick Plays Mercury Lounge on Saturd ..The talented singer-songwriter John Roderick is a busy guy. As guitarist and lead singer, he fronts the Long Winters, plus he’s been a touring member of Harvey Danger. And to keep busy he often appears on other bands’ albums, like with Nada Surf, the Decemberists and Death Cab for Cutie. And he’s coming our way [...]The Bowery Presents - The House List26 January 2012

Music: Music Review: Kathleen Edwards: Voyag ..On her fourth LP, singer-songwriter Kathleen Edwards gets an assist from her new beau, Bon Iver mastermind Justin Vernon , who adds lush arrangements to her tales of heartbreak and anguish, inching her development forward even if the results are, ultimately, uneven. At its best, the fuller production adds heft to Edwards’ usually sparse folk. Trembling guitars and a haunting choir provide moody accompaniment to the forlorn woe of “Pink Champagne.” Distorted violin and marching snare drum bring a sense of roiling urgency to Edwards’ folk-pop ballad formula on “A Soft Place To Land,” co-written with The Long Winters’ John Roderick ...The A.V.

Pullin’ ‘Tubes: Kathleen Edwards Is A Voyagu ..For those of you who don’t know who Kathleen Edwards is, you’re going to be hearing her name a lot in the coming days, weeks and months, as the critically acclaimed Canadian alt.country singer will release her fourth studio album Voyageur tomorrow via Zoe/Rounder Records. Edwards was looking to get away from the singer-songwriter mold of her previous work, and make an album more inline with the indie rock that she had been listening to before entering the studio. So what’s the big deal about that? Well, she was able to nab none other than ...Hidden Track17 January 2012

In 2005, so the story goes, Coulton abandoned his career path in software to become an Internet musical sensation.

For 2011, Coulton has released 'Artificial Heart,' his first album of original material since his 'Thing a Week' project.
