The Millenium Music Conference
Tuesday, February 3, 2009 11:46AM
I really don't know all that much about the Millennium Music Conference. I know that the event that starts on February 12th is the 13th incarnation that has been held in this area. I also know that more than 300 bands will be playing at venues around the area over the course of four days. I also know next to nothing about the majority of those acts, and unless you are a complete local music junky, I doubt that you do either.
Well, over the next two weeks we're going to try to change that. Full Article » -
The Jellybricks: Goodnight to Everyone
Friday, September 12, 2008 2:56PM
Another rainy Friday. Looking for a little lift I decided to spring for the new Jellybricks album, "Goodnight to Everyone." The Harrisburg power pop standards have been making upbeat music since they hit the scene in 1997 with their album "Kinky Boot Beast." "Goodnight to Everyone" is their first release since 2004, and it was anxiously awaited by local music fans and power pop aficionados alike.
The album cover (pictured) is pretty sweet. Makes me long for the days when I bought CD's instead of digital albums. Unfortunately, I'm not sure that the music lives up to the cover. "Goodnight to Everyone" isn't bad, it's just not my favorite album by the Bricks. Full Article » -
Farewell Flight: Sound. Color. Motion.
Friday, September 5, 2008 2:47PM
I’m a bit late to the party on this one judging by the response I’ve already heard from local music fans, but we’ll pretend it’s fashionably late. I got a copy of local band Farewell Flight’s debut full-length album Sound. Color. Motion. just before their release party at Champion Ship a few weeks ago, but I didn’t get a chance to really listen to it until this afternoon. Now I can tell you, it’s one of the best albums I’ve heard from a local band in a long time.
Classifying music as “indie” is generally meaningless, but it’s a lazy tag that nevertheless fits Farewell Flight snugly. Their sound resembles “We Have the Facts and We’re Voting Yes” era Death Cab For Cutie, only a little bit less fuzzy. They rely heavily on the piano to drive the album, but some of Sound. Color. Motion.’s (That’s a punctuation nightmare) hidden gems revolve around Timmy Moslener’s nifty guitar work. Full Article »
