Check It Out - Loconotion

My friend Trae recently started up a new website called Loconotion, which keeps a critical eye on the various forms of media (music/tv/film/etc). While I have never claimed to be a writer, I was asked to contribute and so I have joined the far more talented team. So far, I have posted several album reviews, including a few that were originally found right here on the Lovers. Hopefully, you'll get a chance to check it out.

High Fidelity Tonight!

High Fidelity isn't just a program here on WEVL (which does air tonight from Midnight - 2am), it's also the title of Nick Hornby's novel about the world of music snobbery (as well as Hornby's common man's hero Rob Fleming searching to grow up and find a meaningful relationship). If you have ever spent hours scrutinizing the order of a mix tape for a special someone, then you understand the character of Rob Fleming. Author Hornby will be making an apperance at the Michael D. Rose Theatre tonight at 7pm on the U of M campus. The event is free and open to the public.

For more information, click here.

(Of course, High Fidelity is also the electronic reproduction of sound as well as a song by Elvis Costello.)

Are You Listening Tuesday Afternoons?

Since the Lovers fancies itself as a showcase for new releases, there is a lot of great current music out there that only gets played once on the show and then is never heard from again. Well, that isn't neccesarily true because many of the tunes you hear on the Lovers can also be heard on WEVL every Tuesday from 4 - 6pm. Check it out!

Hosted by Brian and Judy.

An Album I Purchased Today

One of the greatest rewards listening to a station like WEVL is the exposure to so many different musical styles and genres. Artists that I never even thought I would be exposed to or even care about are now amazing me each day with their timelessness. As for today's purchase, I have always loved religious music (Singing Down In Dixie is one of my favorite programs at the station, and, let's face it, the best part of church has always been the music, right?) and this is a great introduction to the soulful side of the Word. My favorite has to be "The Last Mile of the Way" from the Soul Stirrers (from Sam Cooke's early career) or Dorothy Love Coates' "Strange Man".

The Coach and Four - RIP?

Well, if it really was their last show last night, it was a fine exit for one of Memphis' best rock outfits. Hopefully, we'll still get that swan album out of the deal. And heck, I'm already looking forward to the band that's going to form out of this "hiatus". Thanks for the great music guys!

Tune in: Today 1-2pm

Tonight at the Hi-Tone

Brad Postlethwaite and the Brad Band open up.

Mark Kozelek - Tonight At the Hi-Tone!

Mark Kozelek (Red House Painters, Sun Kil Moon) will be making a rare appearance in Memphis tonight at the Hi-Tone. I first heard of Mark Kozelek when my friend Aaron gave me the Red House Painter's Down Colorful Hill album. Rarley have I been so drawn to someone's music so quickly. Kozelek's sound is often depressing in nature but always beautiful and achingly honest. If anyone deserves to be called the modern Nick Drake, it certainly would be Mr. Kozelek. Don't miss this chance!

- And don't forget about tomorrow's show at the Hi-Tone when we are privileged enough to have The Undertow Orchestra come to town. Never heard of The Undertow Orchestra? Well, believe me you've heard of the members who make it up. Here is a description of the event:

This is a very special collaborative tour with David Bazan (Pedro The Lion, Headphones), Vic Chesnutt, Mark Eitzel (American Music Club), and Will Johnson (Centro-matic) all sharing the stage, rotating between each songwriter's material, while serving as backing band on various instruments for each other's tunes. Scott Danbom (Centro-matic) will join the Orchestra on piano and violin.

Brad Postlethwaite and the Brad Band will be opening up.
