Last Sunday I saw Sean Hayes at the Brickroom with a friend of mine. I’ve always been aware of my “old lady” tendencies, i.e. feeling sleepy at 9, going to bed at 10, waking up early, but that night at Brickroom made me intensely aware of it. In my defense, it was a Sunday nightContinue reading “Sean Hayes Live at the Brickroom”

Live at the Greek – Berkeley
One thing I love about social media is having the ability to be up to date on what musicians are doing in the world, and where they’ll be in the next year. When I was working for FieldGuides in April, I learned that The Head and The Heart were scheduled to come to the GreekContinue reading “Live at the Greek – Berkeley”
Brett Dennen Live
Well hello, I do apologize for my absence….slightly embarrassed that I haven’t posted anything since February, but I’m here so now that’s what matters. Life appears to have grabbed me by the hand and isn’t planning on letting go anytime soon, which I’m quite happy with. A lot of things have happened since February. IContinue reading “Brett Dennen Live”
What I’m Listening To, Foreign Fields
I like to believe that it’s easy for me to discover new music, that I naturally attract unknown groups that are asking to be played. However, sometimes…about 50% of the time, I have to do my own research. One of my favorite places to look is Communion. This is a record label that was createdContinue reading “What I’m Listening To, Foreign Fields”
Eight Dollar Mountain at The Brickroom
Bluegrass has been pulling at my heart strings since day one, thanks to my parents, though mostly to my mum. She was brought up on bluegrass, as her dad played banjo, mandolin, and guitar in multiple bluegrass groups. Whenever I hear a banjo, mandolin, or upright bass playing that delicious, upbeat twang I get butterfliesContinue reading “Eight Dollar Mountain at The Brickroom”
What I’m Listening to, Hozier
Like most people, I was first introduced to Hozier when I heard his single Take Me To Church, an emotionally heavy tune that plays with the ideas of sin and love. Like quite a few artists I listen to, I wasn’t initially drawn in by Take Me To Church, although I did appreciate that heContinue reading “What I’m Listening to, Hozier”
Halloween and Lake Street Dive
Happy Halloween everyone! I hope you all had a fantastic Halloween weekend like I did. My boyfriend came up from Davis, and a group of our friends dressed up as characters from Star Wars. In Ashland we have a traditional Halloween parade in which the entire town is dressed to the nines walking down theContinue reading “Halloween and Lake Street Dive”
Sean Hayes is Coming to Town
Hello all, I’m back from the wilderness and doing my best to adjust to civilization. Sleeping in a bed, using a normal toilet, spending time on the computer… all of these things are so alien to me that it’s strange to think that at one point I took them all for granted. But enough aboutContinue reading “Sean Hayes is Coming to Town”
Mumford & Sons and Their Wilder Mind
There’s something about four lads from England with instruments in hand, and the knowledge of how to play them, that gets me all hot and bothered. The first British quartet to come into my life was The Beatles when I was about four years old. My dad had a poster of them in his officeContinue reading “Mumford & Sons and Their Wilder Mind”
Ben Howard, Portland, Oregon
It’s a surreal moment when you see one of your favorite bands live. They come on stage and you scream with everyone else, hardly able to grasp that the musicians whose music has shaped and influenced you so much are really standing in front of you. Seeing Ben Howard in Portland, Oregon left me withContinue reading “Ben Howard, Portland, Oregon”
