Paste Magazine on the music & style of Sydney Eloise & The Palms: “Think how a Sofia Coppola film looks—brilliantly layered and vivid with a daydreamy, hazy border.”

With their East Coast tour wrapped earlier this month, Sydney Eloise & The Palms have been quite busy after the release of their debut LP, Faces. Breakout hits “Sorry, Not Sorry” and “Tell Me What I Want To Hear” highlight the record’s signature sound, think how a Sofia Coppola film looks—brilliantly layered and vivid with a daydreamy, hazy border. Through a seemingly effortless emphasis on detail and build, Sydney Eloise evokes a campy, alt-country twang beside her late 50s, early 60s pop sugar croon. Often compared to Best Coast’s Bethany Consentino and early Rilo Kiley era Jenny Lewis, dare we say Miss Eloise & Co. have managed to perfectly distill their varied influences and inspirations into an evolved new sound just right beside Sydney Eloise’s self-described “disco-earthy” style. The album highlights thoughtful lyrics on perspective and change. Beyond melancholy reflection, however, the songs focus on reclaiming one’s power and reconciling what was then and what is now. For those in the throes of rebuilding after a breakup or accepting past choices, this album is sure to soothe any lingering aftershocks.

Not one to shy from jumpsuits and fringe, we caught up with Sydney Eloise—born and bred in Atlanta, Georgia—via email on her tour essentials and how her musical and personal style has evolved over the course of writing and recording the album. With a quick wit and conversational grace, if you have not yet heard the bright, Technicolor stylings of Sydney Eloise & The Palms, we have no doubt you will soon. And besides, who can resist a fearless frontwoman with a signature marching band top hat? READ MORE…

American Songwriter Magazine has named Aaron Lee Tasjan’s In the Blazes one of the Top 50 Albums of 2015

41. Aaron Lee Tasjan: In The Blazes

It takes unique talent to adapt to playing with artists as diverse as Pat Green, Kevn Kinney and the New York Dolls all before releasing your debut at 27. But such is the shaggy dog tale of East Nashville by way of Ohio and New York bohemian Aaron Lee Tasjan. He takes that experience and unleashes it in a 10-song set that showcases his wry, dryly humorous lyrics atop folk rock caught between the crawling swamp of J.J. Cale (“The Dangerous Kind”), the urban grit of Bruce Springsteen (“Lucinda’s Room”), the self-deprecation of Randy Newman (“E.N.S.A.A.T.”) and the poetic swagger of Elliott Murphy (“Made in America”). Tasjan exudes a scruffy, lovable charm that translates into Americana that’s as charming as it is chiming. Unfortunately, at only 35 minutes, the album is over just as it’s finding that elusive groove. Still, there is enough wily wordplay and effortlessly hummable melodies in these rootsy country folk-rockers to keep you satiated until he can produce the follow-up we’re already waiting for.

Billboard debuts nav/attack’s new video, “More Wins” starring Adam Goldberg

Los Angeles is home to synthpop project nav/attack, founded by Andrew Lynch, who released his self-titled debut album on Dangerbird Records in early October.

The LP itself takes its listeners on a post-computer-age voyage that seamlessly skates between the line of a technology-masked society and the raw human conscience. One of the experimental indie records, “More Wins,” has been channeled into an abstract music video that Billboard is premiering. WATCH HERE…

American Songwriter Magazine features the new video for Aaron Lee Tasjan co-produced Dylan cover “Whatcha Gonna Do?” by Tim Easton & The McCrary Sisters

Singer-songwriter Tim Easton recruited a renowned collection of Nashville musicians to record a cover of the Bob Dylan outtake “Whatcha Gonna Do?” to raise awareness and funds for the Nashville Rescue Mission. We’re beyond pleased to premiere the cover here and encourage you to help feed Nashville’s homeless.

For the recording, Easton enlisted the help of singer-songwriters and multi-instrumentalists Aaron Lee Tasjan (who also co-produces the track with Easton) and Megan Palmer, in addition Dylan collaborators and American Music Association Award show staples the McCrary Sisters. The song/video was recorded at East Side Manor Studios in East Nashville, with the participants being members of the Campfire Propaganda songwriter collective.

“I simply wanted to do a project that gives back to the community that nurtures us, and use the abundant talent around the neighborhood to make it happen,” Easton says. “My goal is to have Campfire Propaganda create an annual video that employs various locals to raise awareness for local causes. A little more ‘We are the Neighborhood’ than ‘We Are The World.’”

The original song was written and recorded by Dylan during the Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan sessions, but was left off the album. It latter appeared on Vol. 9 of the Bootleg Series, The Witmark Demos: 1962-1964. WATCH HERE…

URB Magazine interviews KONCEPT & J57 on ‪Drake‬, ‪Kanye‬, ‪‎Mos Def‬, ‪J Dilla‬, their favorite hip-hop records, their new EP The Fuel

One spring afternoon about a year and a half ago, I was at a friend’s studio. Around this time, I was on a producer kick. I was unemployed and with so much time on my hands, I was hellbent on learning how to make beats. Jimmy or many of you know him as J57 offered to give me a crash course. And I’m not sure about you guys but when someone as talented as he is offers you free lessons on his craft, you take it.

So there I was, sitting in his Brooklyn studio that has produced tracks for so many notable artists, with this man who could be doing hundreds of other things besides this. What better way to get a jumpstart on producing, right? Jimmy opened up his ol’ reliable, Reason 6 and he went at it. For hours, we drank and I watched while he laid the foundation down, occasionally asking me for my feedback. At one point, I remember him dropping the beat down a half tempo and both of us shaking our heads yes. We both fell in love with it. When I left that day, I did not know what we worked on would become “Crazy is Beautiful” off Koncept & J57’s Fuel EP. I’m still waiting on my co-producer credits for the track. We’ll find out on Friday. READ MORE…
