Q&A With Alex Maas (The Black Angels)
Despite the uncertainty of everything due to this seemingly never-ending pandemic, the always-working Alex Maas and his Black Angels cohorts continue to stay as busy as usual. The band just hosted its annual Levitation festival and is currently on tour for most of November before hitting the road again in January and February. Earlier this year, the Black Angels released Live At Levitation (which compiles tracks recorded by the group at earlier fests) and spent time in the studio with producer extraordinaire John Agnello for a new record. Maas issued solo album Luca (a mellow-psych LP named named after his son) last December and followed it up with Levitation Sessions (live interpretation...

Q&A With Josh Caterer (Smoking Popes)
Просмотров 6693 года назад
Josh Caterer has always been a bit of a contradiction. He’s a punk rocker and a Christian minister. The Smoking Popes frontman’s latest solo release is a live album that wasn’t recorded in front of an audience. “The Hideout Sessions” (Pravda) features covers of popular standards like “My Funny Valentine,” “I Only Have Eyes For You,” “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face” and “Goodnight My Someon...
Q&A With Martin Phillipps (The Chills)
Просмотров 7453 года назад
After the Chills’ 1996 LP “Sunburnt,” we didn’t hear another studio effort from Martin Phillipps and crew until 2015’s Silver Bullets. Fortunately, the singularly great New Zealand songwriter-apparently doing well after a life-threatening battle with hepatitis C-doesn’t want, or need, to take another long break, as we’ve been treated to two records since: 2018’s “Snow Bound” and this year’s “Sc...
Q&A With Jason Narducy (Bob Mould, Superchunk, Split Single)
Просмотров 2743 года назад
Jason Narducy is best known as a sideman for the distinguished likes of Bob Mould, Superchunk and Robert Pollard, but with the release of "Amplificado" (Inside Outside), his third LP under the Split Single moniker, it’s well past time to recognize him as a talented singer/songwriter in his own, uh, right. Joined on "Amplificado" by drummer Jon Wurster and bassist Mike Mills of obscure indie ban...
Q&A With Nora O’Connor (The Flat Five)
Просмотров 5053 года назад
You can tell a lot about a singer by the company she keeps. So even if you don’t know Nora O’Connor by name (though you really should), you’re probably very familiar with her voice. After all, she’s worked with everyone from Neko Case and Mavis Staples to the New Pornographers and the Decemberists to Jeff Tweedy and Dylan (well, Jakob, not Bob). O’Connor’s latest release is "Another World" (Pra...
Q&A With Kristian Bush And Andrew Hyra (Billy Pilgrim)
Просмотров 2153 года назад
If nothing else, the past year has led to lots of discovery for all of us. Are we really happy with our jobs? Our relationships? Our lives in general? For Kristian Bush-half of '90s folk/rock duo Billy Pilgrim (Andrew Hyra is the other half)-discovery came in a different form. While he was doing some pandemic house cleaning, Bush happened across the sole copy of what was to be Billy Pilgrim's t...
Q&A With Gary Jarman (The Cribs)
Просмотров 1,4 тыс.3 года назад
For the Cribs, social distancing came easy. The band of brothers-Jarman twins Gary (bass, vocals) and Ryan (guitar, vocals) and baby bro Ross (drums)-was already spread out across 5,000 miles and two continents. After dealing with some fallout from splitting with its management and the recording/releasing moratorium that resulted, the Jarmans regrouped, wrote some songs and then recorded and se...
Q&A With Len Kasper (Sonic45, Chicago White Sox Broadcaster)
Просмотров 2583 года назад
Sonic45 songwriter/bassist and distinguished baseball broadcaster Len Kasper’s favorite band is the Who, so he probably won’t mind (then again, he might) if we paraphrase a number from Tommy and note that we have a feeling ’21 is going to be a good year for him. Not only will he be switching booths from Chicago Cubs TV to Chicago White Sox radio (pursuing a longtime passion), Sonic45’s debut re...
Q&A With The Nude Party
Просмотров 1 тыс.3 года назад
The Nude Party is what we wistfully imagine all rock bands were like 50 years ago. They live together in a house in the Catskills. There are six of them, including a percussionist. Their excellent sophomore LP, "Midnight Manor" (New West), comes with rolling papers. They got their name from their propensity to play early shows while naked. They sing about Chevrolet vans and hot tubs. They have ...
Q&A With Greg MacPherson (Figure Walking)
Просмотров 2303 года назад
As you can tell from this episode of MAGNET television, Greg MacPherson is a man for all seasons. The multi-instrumentalist frontman of Winnipeg's Figure Walking has been releasing records for almost a quarter century and has been longlisted for the Polaris Music Prize multiple times. "Vertical/Horizontal" is the sophomore album from Figure Walking-which also includes drummer Rob Gardiner (Cond...
Q&A With Robert Scott (The Bats)
Просмотров 1473 года назад
Aside from U2, the Bats are the longest-running active band that's kept the exact same lineup during its entire career. The highly influential New Zealand quartet formed in 1982 and has released 10 albums without any missteps along the way. Led by Robert Scott-also a member of equally great trio the Clean-the Bats have just issued "Foothills" (Flying Nun), another collection of 15 familiar-yet-...
Q&A With Naked Giants
Просмотров 3553 года назад
The members of this Seattle trio-Grant Mullen (guitar, vocals), Gianni Aiello (bass, vocals) and Henry LaVallee (drums)-might be familiar to you because of the time they spent as part of Car Seat Headrest’s live band. But like we’ve said before, Naked Giants loom largest when following their own inspiration. The band’s sophomore album, "The Shadow" (New West), was one of the best LPs you might’...
Q&A With G.E. Smith ("Saturday Night Live," Bob Dylan, Hall & Oates, Mick Jagger)
Просмотров 4,5 тыс.3 года назад
G.E. Smith is central casting's version of the cool-as-fuck rock 'n' roll sideman, only he's real. He's the ruggedly handsome guy who plays guitar better than anyone else in the room, looks like he was born to be onstage/onscreen and knows where the real after party is-the one with Bowie and Dylan and Jagger. In addition to collaborating with those three, Smith has also backed up everyone from ...
Q&A With Joey Burns (Calexico)

Given MAGNET's love for all things Calexico, dating back to when Joey Burns and John Convertino first started out a quarter century ago, the band's few forays into festive music have long been part of our annual Christmastime playlists. So when we heard Burns, Convertino and Co. were making a holiday album, we knew that even if Santa leaves us MAGA-shaped coal this year, we'll also be receiving...

Inara George is closing out 2020 by continuing to spread peace, love and understanding, just as she has throughout a year during which we desperately needed all of these things.

    Trip Shakespeare albums and concerts changed my life and I love everything that came after too. Trip Shakespeare at the Metro c. 1991 turned my wife from someone who liked music okay, liked to dance, etc. into a hopelessly smitten fan. The morning after that show I woke up to find her playing Trip albums and poring over the sleeves. In other words just like any true blue music lover. Impressive. Long live Trip Shakespeare.

    I miss these guys and still have them in regular rotation. Saw them multiple times back in the day and each time was amazing. I emailed the band when I heard they broke up and they actually responded. I have followed Shannon's projects and saw Slow Dazzle perform live and it was equally amazing. I would love to see her in Minneapolis soon.

    One of the performances that changed my life was when I saw Trip Shakespeare at JC Dobbs in Philadelphia in the late 80's while I was in art school. I remember thinking 'how is THIS band in such a small venue?!', and felt so lucky to be there. I'll never forget Matt's pure charisma and smile while he played. The guy knows how to 'center the room'. And the music is/was such an magic blend of real heart, irreverent fun, and colorful songwriting. It gave me a new understanding of 'authentic voice.'

I regret that I never had the opportunity to see TS live, but I have a vinyl EP with the live versions of Toolmaster on one side and Applehead Man on the other. If I ever have to save anything from a house fire that isn't a member of my family, I will go back in for 2 things - that EP and my Aria Pro II 4-string bass guitar.
