SnC 275 – All over the shop

Music from all over the shop this week although a couple are from Italy and news of another session at the barn coming up soon.

I forgot to mention in the show that there is a +1 button just to the right here > give it a click if you “like”.

I couldn’t resist using this pic of part of the new Adnams distillery which Jordan Reyne and I visited last week. See Southwold lighthouse reflected in the window?

 

Hope and Ruin – The Trews (Toronto, Canada)

Having played their track One by One back on 259 it really is high time we checked out another Trews track.

The album was recorded in the wilds of Bath, Ontario.

“We were just looking to run away a little,” guitarist John-Angus MacDonald admits. “And we wanted to do something fun, organic, be a band again, all that stuff.”

“It was like anything was up for grabs,” continues John-Angus, “And we just needed to get a hold of where we were at, which is why we retreated to Bath. We went there to try and figure out what kind of record was in us.”

And so bassist Jack Syperek, drummer Sean Dalton, and the two MacDonald brothers faded into the bucolic splendor of Bath, Ontario, where they had so much fun and got so organic that a couple months later, the Trews had a new album – Hope and Ruin. Or maybe it should be called Order Out of Chaos.

Creepy Little Story – Charlotte Eriksson (London via Gothenburg, Sweden)

Charlotte Eriksson, also called the GlassChild, is from Sweden, Gothenburg, but has always gone her own way, leaving people amazed by her determination and independence. Only 19 years old, she moved all on her own to London to pursue her music and prove what she can do. After only 3 months she has already played with a full band at famous venues around London like the Water Rats, the Bull & Gate, the Enterprise etc. and she’s steady and carefully building a name for herself.

“I moved and left everything I had built for 19 years. I learned how to build my home in my music. When I sing, I’m not scared anymore. I want this to mean something. I believe in writing your own story, and that’s what I’m doing here. I’m just a glass child. I’m still creepy little me.”

She’s switching between lyrics like poetry with a fragile broken voice, to strong and edgy songs with a crystal clear punk/rock-voice that cuts right through. Being compared as a ”punk  version of Bjork and Lykke Li”, to songwriters and vocalists such as Hayley Williams (Paramore) and Juliet Simms (Automatic Loveletters), she’s got a lot of power in her many ways of using her voice. Her music is naked and honest, and leaves you with feelings you never thought you had. ”I want to make a mess inside of people. I want to make them think.” the 20-year old says.

Catch Charlotte at The Dublin Castle in Camden, London on Tuesday 28 June

The Grind – The Kobolds (Astoria, New York, USA)

The Kobolds are a New York City alternative rock band with a home-base in Astoria, Queens.

Alex Grau and Nicholas DiMichele first started playing music together as teenagers in College Station, Texas. After moving to New York to pursue degrees from NYU, Alex and Nick enlisted Pennsylvanian drummer Andrew Benson from a local Guitar Center. Using intense intimidation tactics, Alex, Nick and Andrew coerced their long-time friend from Texas, Spencer Synwolt, to start a new life in New York and round out the rock quartet.

The Kobolds were born in 2009, and released their first album, The Kobolds EP, in July 2010. Following a year of playing New York, their second album, The Kobolds EP II, was released very recently.

Working Man Blues – Matt Andersen (New Brunswick, Canada)

It is part of the Maverick at the White Horse series of gigs being promoted by Paul Spencer who also puts on the Maverick Festival (1-3 July).www.maverickfestival.co.uk

2006 (It’s Never Up To You) – Krissi Moses (Los Angeles, CA, USA)

Los Angeles native Krissi Moses (now adjusting to her sudden local fame in the LA rock scene) wrote her first song at 16.

Originally courted by Columbia as a solo act, Krissi flouted the advice of her friends and family, electing instead to assemble a band from scratch and work out her signature sound gigging live. It worked. Continuing to write, record, gig and explore new genres and sounds, Krissi’s material is a fresh blend of rock, pop, reggae, punk and funk, best characterized by her compilation track, “You’re Forgettable” (based wryly on her true-life first heartbreak.
