BIOGRAPHY

Arrica Rose’s brand of indie folk-rock shines on 'La La Lost', a Paste Magazine recommended album. This highly anticipated 2nd full-length record produced by Dan Garcia (David Crosby, Leonard Cohen, Christina Aguilera) has also been featured on iTunes Folk page in 12 countries throughout Europe, peaked at #24 on Italy’s iTunes charts and is also charting on indie/college radio across the country. Oct 22 Arrica Rose’s music will be featured on NBC’s Lipstick Jungle. Citing influences such as Tom Waits, Billie Holiday, David Bowie and Bob Dylan, Rose has one foot planted in singer/songwriter land...another in indie folk-rock...and an intermittent hand in pop. “Arrica Rose’s voice has the ability to make your heart stop.” –Performer Magazine

Cadillac Sky

Cadillac Sky should be a lot more tired. It’s early Saturday afternoon at MerleFest and the band–Bryan Simpson, Matt Menefree, Andrew Moritz, Ross Holmes and newest addition David Mayfield–has already logged two performances on the day....

Sessions: David Bazan

It was pretty slow. I mean, I played [the songs] on acoustic guitar for a long time, but I didn’t know how to transfer them to the other format. I didn’t want it to be a solo acoustic record. I wanted there to be bells and whistles and full band arrangements even if I didn’t want it necessarily to be electric guitar rock....

Sessions: Vetiver

“It’s always slightly confounding to me whenever Vetiver is depicted with the same tropes that people have read off of press sheets,” says Andy Cabic. “The same sort of milestones get mentioned but then no one really digs to find out that there are those other things going on.”

Behind The Song: “Ain’t Nothing Like the Real Thing”

Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell sang, it has been remarked, like lovers, although they weren’t. Similarly, Nickolas Ashford and Valerie Simpson, the team behind one of Marvin and Tammi’s most enduring hits, “Ain’t Nothing Like the Real Thing,” wrote as if under the influence of amatory forces; even if, in the spring of 1968,
