When you listen to Over the Rhine, the supremely talented wife-husband duo of Karin Bergquist and Linford Detweiler, you quickly fall under the spell of Karin’s compelling voice, ethereal and earthy at once, and then you notice their subtle, satisfying arrangements, all the instruments so exquisitely balanced, and finally the lines of the songs start hitting you. Paste Magazine praises their "lovely, heartbreaking, and ultimately uplifting musical mosaic." TheWashington Post applauds their "understated, country-tinged charm." The Los Angeles Times praises their 2014 holiday album, Blood Oranges In The Snow, declaring "If every musician brought this much inspiration and imagination to the task of recording holiday songs, what a wonderful world it truly would be."

Bug Fixes & Performance Improvements began as a joke, between drinks number 6 and 7 (7&8? numbers unconfirmed) at a bar down the street from my apartment in Brooklyn, NY. Upon further research (Google), I could not believe there was not an album or book that bore this title so, I set out to write one. 300 songs, 2 years, and 1 near nervous breakdown later, here it lies. In 2015 I released "Songs From The Hive," a love letter to the music of The Band and Bob Dylan, a tip of the cap(wide brimmed, brown, with a feather) to my folky heroes. And then I hit the road. Iplayedfor anybody and everybody, played everywhere anyone would take me; living rooms, cafes, clubhouses, big theaters, small theaters, movie theaters, listening rooms, college cafeterias, etc. Boasting nearly 300 shows in the year and a half that followed, I ended up finding myself in some surprisingly cool circumstances– and some uncool ones (statute of limitations does not yet allow for me to reveal details). But what I found most liberating was that being a relative unknown had it’s perks– I was beholden to nothing. No one was expecting anything of me, except my cat, and he doesn’t give a shit what goes on my recor… (read more)

A man in Wahoo, Nebraska said he ate all the eggs he could. He felt it was his contribution to beef sales; every egg he ate was one less chicken!

Actors in ‘80s movies wielded tape decks and boom boxes to advance their storylines:  "Say Anything," "Fame" and "Fatal Attraction" are just three examples among a horde.

Germans called it “schwenkbiegemaschinen”, translated as “swing bending machine.” Fabricators here knew it as the folding machine or, more casually, the folder.

Washington DC native Owen Danoff wrote and recorded his first song – complete with drums, bass, guitar, and piano – at age fifteen. Since then he has graduated Berklee College of Music with a degree in Film Scoring, released an EP and a full-length album, and performed in multiple states and venues across the country. In the DC area alone Owen has performed at nearly every major venue including the Birchmere and the 9:30 club, been selected as a Strathmore Artist in Residence, won three Washington Area Music Awards (pop/rock vocalist 2104, pop/rock album 2014 for Twelve Stories, pop/rock instrumentalist 2014), and the first Bernard/Ebb Songwriting Awards Grand Prize. Additionally, he has been mentioned multiple times in national media outlets such as the Washington Post, the Huffington Post, and the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. Elements of Owen’s music have been likened to that of Paul Simon, Harry Nilsson, John Mayer, and the Wallflowers, among others – though the end result is all his own. Growing up listening to rock and roll bands such as Green Day before discovering a love of folk and singer/songwriter music, Owen’s music boasts a current of energy as well as catchy m… (read more)

Sunport Jazz Festival in NY: ‘Night At Birdland’ with Swingin’ Wonderland Jazz Orchestra – Birdland January 01, 2018 – Manhattan

They split us into teams. Mine was called Custer’s Last Chance and Bugle Corps. They hauled us out into the beautiful, rollin’ grain fields in Tripp County halfway between Dog Ear and Old Lodge Creek. Very quickly we formed into a cohesive family unit. If you’ve ever seen a troop of baboons high on bus fumes, you’ll be able to picture it. We lined up in a company front at the end of a milo field. It was as straight as a cracked windshield. At the signal from Wes, our team leader, we invaded the field with the precision and practiced skill of the Houston Oilers backfield coming ashore at the Bay of Pigs!

Roode performed a spinebuster on Wilder for a near fall. Gable tagged in and the champions set up for their finisher, but Wilder avoided it. Gable performed his rolling German suplex on Wilder and had him pinned, but Dawson broke up the pin. The Revival performed a nice double team move on Gable and Roode had to make the save. They set up or Shatter Machine, but Roode speared Wilder and then Gable rolled up Dawson and pinned him…

Shanshan entered the Nukak, three boochies, a lemur-koala breed, swinging and playing with each other, battling Shanshan’s fingers. "Aren’t they adorable?"
