Jeff and I just hosted a very cool house concert with a couple of singers from Tucson: Marianne Dissard and Emilie Marchand. Marianne is off for NYC to sing with Calexico at Joe's Pub. (If you are a Calexico fan, Marianne is the woman that sings in French on some of their albums.) It was a very cool house concert. While in NYC, Marianne is looking for leads for some residency shows this summer. Any tips?

The performer has then recorded a song based on the review. The project is called "Damn critics." Contributors include Sophie Rimheden and Nicolai Dunger. What do you think of the idea? Could it work where you live? Anna Maria np-a song not based on any review. Tired of spam? Yahoo!

The Living Room (www.livingroomny.com) hosts residencies occasionally, and I believe the Rockwood Music Hall might also as well (www.rockwoodmusichall.com). - -- =============================================== Meredith Tarr New Haven, CT USA mailto:meth@smoe.org http://www.smoe.org/meth =============================================== hear at the HOMe House Concert Series http://hom.smoe.org =============================================== ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 24 Jan 2006 12:29:10 -0500 From: DanStark <2005.carnivore99@verizon.net> Subject: Tina Dico free listen Tina Dico's "In The Red" is released in North America today and the entire album available for a free listen here... http://music.aol.com/songs/new_releases_full_cds?defaultTab=15 Dan ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 23 Jan 2006 14:32:49 -0800 From: Sue Trowbridge Subject: Re: US TV alert: Feist on Jimmy Kimmel Tonight!

(gasp!) When he first started out, it was pretty unwatchable, but I kept recording it whenever there was a guest I was interested in, and I have to admit it grew on me. I find him rather funny & charming now. I guess he's grown up since "The Man Show." Now, Carson Daly -- *there's* your horrid :) If you are recording Kimmel to see Feist, be sure to pad it with a few extra minutes; they usually let the artist play a second song over the show's end credits and it sometimes runs a little long. A few days after the program airs, you can watch a video of the performance at Kimmel's web site on abc.com. - --Sue T. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 24 Jan 2006 11:53:45 -0800 (PST) From: Ellen Rawson Subject: Re: Of possible interest to our UK members - --- Neile Graham wrote: > BBC4 (a digital channel onto which the Beeb has now > shunned most of its > cultural programming) is doing a 3-part series on > the British folk > revival, starting on 3 Feb. Thanks! I'll have to tape it, I'm afraid, on the 3rd, since I'll be off in New Milton (western Hampshire, New Forest, near home) for the Wailin' Jennys. I heard about the Daughters of Albion gig that same night after I bought the Jennys tickets. (Oh well. The Jennys are cheaper and the gig literally is down the road.) Tomorrow night is the big trip into London (it means arriving home at 1 AM, if I can make the 11.05 PM train :) for Alana Levandoski, Lynn Miles and Dar Williams. Richard Thompson, with Jeb Loy Nichols, opening, is this Friday night in Basingstoke.

The > performer has then recorded a song based on the > review. The project is called "Damn critics." I like that idea, I suspect it would be a bit of hit and miss, but it sounds like fun. It certainly is something different! Reminds me a bit of "A Perfect Vacuum" by Stanislaw Lem, a series of reviews of non-existent books. I guess that was just his way of publishing ideas that for whatever reason didn't warrant developing into full stories... ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 24 Jan 2006 22:03:18 -0500 From: meredith Subject: Re: US TV alert: Feist on Jimmy Kimmel Tonight!

(She'd even had the audience singing along at the end of "Mushaboom"!) It was pretty awesome to watch her and say "she played in my living room". :) - -- =============================================== Meredith Tarr New Haven, CT USA mailto:meth@smoe.org http://www.smoe.org/meth =============================================== hear at the HOMe House Concert Series http://hom.smoe.org =============================================== ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 24 Jan 2006 23:41:13 -0000 From: "Karen West" Subject: RE: Tina Dico free listen Dan wrote: > Tina Dico's "In The Red" is released in North America today and the > entire album available for a free listen here... > > http://music.aol.com/songs/new_releases_full_cds?defaultTab=15 It's a fabulous album.
