SUMMARY:SOLD OUT - JoJo
DESCRIPTION:Bowery Boston presents \nDoors: 7:00 pm / Show: 8:00 pm \nThis event is 18 and over. Patrons under 18 admitted if accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.\nThis show is SOLD OUT \n*** \n \n*** \nJoJo \n \n[Website] [Facebook] [Twitter] \nJoJo is resilient. That’s the message that comes through loud and clear when you listen to Mad Love.\, her debut album with Atlantic Records and her first LP in ten years. She’s empowered. She’s in control. And she’s grown as hell. \nYou can hear it in her Wiz Khalifa-assisted lead single\, “Fuck Apologies.” It’s a powerful statement of intent that announces to the world that the singer-songwriter isn’t going to let anyone make her feel small. \n“As a woman\, I find myself apologizing for things that I really don’t need to apologize for\,” JoJo says. “Even as simple as when someone bumps into you.” She laughs. “Guess what? I’m not sorry you bumped into me. Overall\, though\, the song to me is an anthem of empowerment. It’s about being confident and comfortable enough with who you are to live unapologetically.” \nThemes of hard-won independence and strength are vividly realized on Mad Love.\, which swerves from slinky alt-R&B to exultant pop bangers and back again. It’s no surprise\, given that JoJo\, now 25\, had a heavy hand in writing the entire album after\nfirst attempting to cut tracks penned by outsiders. \n“I was starting to lose myself in the process of being sent songs\,” she says. “But I stood up and remembered that I’m a songwriter\,\nand I want to be heard.” \nTruly finding her voice was a journey that’s taken a lifetime. Born Joanna Levesque and raised in Massachusetts\, she notched a #1 hit on the Billboard Pop Songs chart with her debut single\, “Leave (Get Out)\,” when she was only 13; she was the youngest solo artist to have a #1 single in the U.S. She followed it up with a string of additional singles\, most notably “Too Little Too Late\,” another Top 3 smash\, and the hit album The High Road in 2006. \n“Being a child star is a weird thing because your identity is put onto you\,” she says. “As much of an individual as I was\, I still had a lot of cooks in the kitchen telling me where to go and how to dress and what songs to record.” \nIt didn’t help that she was trapped in a deal with a label that was defunct\, which kept her from releasing music commercially. As the years passed\, she earned a devoted following online releasing free mixtapes featuring tracks from top hitmakers like Boi-1da\, Chad Hugo of the Neptunes and Da Internz. She collaborated\, too\, with the producer Noah “40” Shebib on her critically acclaimed single\, “Demonstrate”\, and had guest features on Timbaland’s Shock Value 2 and Pharrell Williams’ Grammy-nominated album G I R L. She was finally liberated from her contract in 2013 after 2 lawsuits and seven years of limbo and signed anew with Atlantic. \nIn 2015\, she released a critically acclaimed trio of singles\n—she called it a “tringle”—to give fans a first taste of the sound she’d been developing with tunesmiths such as Harmony Samuels\, Benny Blanco\, Wayne Hector and Jason Evigan. Ever prolific\, she recorded dozens of songs. But a series of major life events—including the passing of her beloved father and a break-up—inspired her to start fresh at the top of 2016 when con ceptualizing the vibe of her first studio album in a decade. Life was too short and she wanted to be in the driver’s seat. “After losing my father and breaking up with my boyfriend\,” she says\, “I realized: I cannot keep listening to the opinions of others.” So she started writing again. “I needed it to come from my pen\, in a way I would say it\,” she says. “I felt like my spirit would die if I didn’t come across with my own point of view. It just poured out of me.” \nIt comes as no surprise\, then\, that there’s so much authenticity and vitality in Mad Love.; it’s a document of a young woman finding her way in the world. She’s vulnerable on the opening track “Music\,” a spare piano ballad that allows the singer to show off her spine-chilling vocal chops as she recalls her blue-collar roots and pays homage to her late father. “Usually I’m crazily obsessive about chasing my best performance when I’m cutting vocals\,” she says. “But for ‘Music\,’ I put my perfectionist ego aside and did a couple takes all the way through\, singing through my tears. The emotion was more important to me than anything else.” She’s emotional\, too\, on the haunting “I Am\,” the only song from her earlier sessions to make the album. “This song is my mantra\,” she says.”But she turns up the volume on the self-empowering Alessia Cara-assisted “I Can Only”\, asks a male suitor to politely stop killing her vibe on the head-nodding uptempo “Vibe”\, and demolishes the hater-industrial complex on “FAB”\, ( which stands for Fake Ass Bitches) featuring Remy Ma. For devotees of the woozy R&B slow jams from her JoJo’s mixtapes\, there’s something here too—namely “Edibles\,” a sultry ode to cannabis consumption that’s bound to be a fan favorite. And on the swooning\, doo-wop-inspired title track\, the singer commits so fully to retro soul she sounds transported from another era. \nIf it sounds like there’s a lot of ground covered here\, there is—which is exactly what JoJo wanted. She called the album Mad Love. because it’s the first thing that feels like it’s 100% her voice. “This album is passionate\, crazy\, vulnerable and all about the thing that keeps us going—love\,” she says. “It’s inspired by the music I grew up listening to—and like my generation\, refuses to be put in a box. I tried so many things along the way\, but I realized I needed to be true to myself and do this on my own terms.” \nNow\, she’s ready to turn it over to the fans who have stuck with her after a full decade of challenges. “I don’t want them to experience me\,” she says. “I want them to experience themselves. This music is for you. Listen to this in your car\, do your workout with it\, get ready to it\, cry to it. It comes from my life\, but it’s not for me anymore.” She smiles. “It’s for everyone.” \nSTANAJ \n \n[Website] [Facebook] [Twitter] \nFreshly inked Republic artist\, Stanaj\, just released his debut EP\, The Preview. Complex Magazine featured the highly anticipated record on their site and made The Preview available for exclusive streaming on Monday\, the day before the official release of the EP\, August 9th. \nThe Preview features Stanaj’s undeniably powerful vocals backed by the full sound from the talented producers and songwriters\, Justin Tranter\, Mattman & Robin\, and HazeBanga. With hits like “Ain’t Love Strange” and “Romantic”\, Stanaj gives us an enticing glance at what we can expect from the talented artist in the near future.

SUMMARY:Jamestown Revival
DESCRIPTION:Bowery Boston presents \nDoors: 7:30 pm / Show: 8:30 pm \nThis event is 18 and over. Patrons under 18 admitted if accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.\nTickets on sale Fri. 3/3 at noon! \nTickets available at AXS.COM\, or by phone at 888-929-7849. No service charge on tickets purchased in person at The Sinclair Box Office Wednesdays-Saturdays 12-7PM. Please note: box office is cash only. \n*** \n \n*** \nJamestown Revival \n \n[Website] [Facebook] [Twitter] \nThe story of Jamestown Revival feels suited for the dog-eared pages of a timeless American novel. \nChapter one opens with Jonathan Clay and Zach Chance meeting in Magnolia\, TX at 15-years-old. Fast friends\, the duo attended college together\, started Jamestown Revival\, and traded their home state for Los Angeles\, CA in late 2011. By 2014 they released their debut album UTAH (which included the hit single ‘California’)\, built a committed fan base with countless road shows\, and received critical acclaim from the likes of Rolling Stone and The Wall Street Journal. They were named iTunes “Best of 2014: Singer-Songwriter Album of the Year\,” graced the sound stages of Conan and The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson\, and performed at some of America’s legendary music festivals including Coachella\, Austin City Limits\, Bonnaroo\, Bottlerock Festival\, and Willie Nelson’s Fourth of July Picnic. \n“UTAH opened a lot of doors for us and put us on the road for the first time\,” says Zach. “We learned how to play for a crowd and how to perform.” \nBut when it came time to record a second album\, the band found themselves in a different place. \n“This album is like chapter two\,” agrees Jonathan. “The story begins at the point where we decided to head back to Texas. We wrote many of the songs when we were entering a different phase of our lives. We settled back into Austin\, and my wife and I had our first child. That was a big shift. It was all about leaving behind our last bastion of adolescence\, if you will.” \nThis process resulted in The Education Of A Wandering Man [Republic Records]\, an album that looks back at the journey of the band’s past. The record chronicles the lessons learned and the experiences that color the life-lived along the way. \n“This album is a snapshot of our observations and learnings over the past four years. Our education has been gained not in a classroom\, but in our experience\,” Zach and Jonathan write in a letter to fans announcing the album. \nMusically\, the record remains loyal to Jamestown Revival’s indie rock/alt country aesthetic while also reaching into new creative territory. \n“You can hear all of our influences on the new album. It feels like a late night drive after a show. There’s some Motown\, rock ‘n’ roll\, and even a little country. We paid homage to a lot of the people we listened to while stuck in a car between gigs\,” says Zach. \nTapping into almost a lifetime of natural chemistry\, the band started sharing musical ideas while sitting on Jonathan’s porch before holing up in a Hill Country farmhouse a few hours from Austin for recording. Producing themselves alongside longtime collaborator Ryan Lipman\, the sessions lasted only two weeks\, and Jamestown Revival emerged with 12 new tracks. \n“It was a bunch of good friends in a relaxed setting making a record\,” says Zach. “It never felt like a nine-to-five. We could have a smoke outside\, play horse on the basketball hoop\, and hang out and wait for the muse to find us.” \nThough the record came together quickly\, nailing down the first song proved more difficult. After wrestling to overcoming the pressure\, the band emerged with their first single “Love Is A Burden\,” kick-starting the creative process. \n“We wrote that song about our last single ‘California’\,” admits Jonathan. “When we started writing\, all we did was compare every song we wrote to ‘California.’ We never thought anything lived up to it\, and that started to squelch our creativity. This piece of music that did amazing things for us became like a lead weight. ‘Love Is A Burden’ is about the successes\, the failures\, the triumphs\, and the fears of the past really starting to weigh you down and having a hard time moving on. It’s a metaphor we related to a relationship you can’t move past in the lyrics. As far as inspiration goes\, the chorus just popped in my head\, and we ran with it. After all of that overthinking\, it was done in ten minutes.” \nAlbum opener “Company Man” captures the heartbreak of corporate greed. “My family’s got some land where we birthed the idea of Jamestown Revival\, and we’ve both been going there together since we were kids\,” says Jonathan. “”One day my family gets a call that there’s an oil company who wants to put a pipeline right through the property. They were doing it under the protection of ‘public domain’. That piece of land is sacred to us\, but ironically\, nobody else cared about it until there was something to gain.” Company Man speaks to that feeling of helplessness and frustration. \n“American Dream” comments on similar themes\, while “Head On” explores the claustrophobia of the concrete jungle. Elsewhere\, the acoustic-driven “Back To Austin” serves as an upbeat love letter to their hometown. Throughout\, the record speaks to themes inherent to the meaning within its title The Education Of A Wandering Man. \n“The Education Of A Wandering Man is actually an autobiography by classic western novelist Louis L’Amour\,” Zach says. “He traveled the world and lived a fascinating life. Jonathan and I read the book years ago and fell in love with it. It’s like looking back on a life unplanned. That really resonated with us when we were making the album. The more you travel\, the more perspective you get. Our travels have been an education.” \nFor Jamestown Revival\, the album is simply a continuation of their ongoing story. “We’ll be writing and telling stories until we’re six feet under\,” Jonathan leaves off. “This album is just the next step on the path.” \n*** \nThe Ghost of Paul Revere \n \n[Website] [Facebook] [Twitter] \n“Mumford & Sons meet the Avett Brothers with a twist of bluegrass. Old Crow Medicine Show with three-part harmonies. The Band for millennials… The Maine-grown\, foot-stompin’ holler-folk quartet create the type of music for which festivals are made.” – The Boston Globe \nBorn on the banks of the Saco River\, brothers in all but name\, the Ghost of Paul Revere is Maine’s holler-folk band. A powerful\, energetic\, non-traditional American folk band that’s renowned for harmony fueled\, heart-pounding performances full of songs with unique identities that remain undeniably the Ghost of Paul Revere.\nFormed around childhood friends Max Davis\, Sean McCarthy\, and Griffin Sherry\, joined by Matt Young on harmonica\, the Ghost of Paul Revere played their first show together in 2011 at a tiny bar in Portland\, Maine. Now\, they play across the nation\, bringing holler-folk into houses\, bars\, and music halls. They have shared the stage with the Avett Brothers\, The Travelin’ McCourys\, Brown Bird\, Spirit Family Reunion\, Darlingside\, as well as members of Greensky Bluegrass\, the Infamous Stringdusters\, and Old Crow Medicine Show. \nTheir critically acclaimed\, Billboard charting full length album Believe\, as well as their two EPs North and Field Notes Vol. 1\, have continually been the top selling local albums in Maine and New Hampshire for more than four years. The Ghost of Paul Revere has since sold out Port City Music Hall\, Stone Mountain Arts Center\, and the Strand Theater multiple times\, won Best In Maine at the 2014 New England Music Awards\, were an official showcase artist at Folk Alliance International 2015 and made their Newport Folk Festival debut in August 2015. They capped off 2015 with an electrifying headline performance on New Year’s eve at Portland’s State Theatre in front of 1\,600 enraptured fans. \nIn 2016\, amidst touring nationally\, they returned to the studio to craft their second full length album\, engineered by Jonathan Wyman at Halo Studios and mastered by Adam Ayan of Gateway Mastering. The album is expected to be released in early 2017. \n“Robustly played\, masterful amalgamation of bluegrass\, folk\, and gospel for the Millennial Generation… The Ghost of Paul Revere prove that superior roots music can come from anywhere.” – No Depression \n“Simply put\, this band is one to see live… A gorgeous blend of bluegrass\, folk and good old fashioned rock and roll… their performance takes on a boot-clacking brilliance that transforms each song into a full-on participatory event\, sending an electric surge about the room that’s near impossible not to feel. Add to that a layered three part harmony coursing through each soulful song\, and The Ghost of Paul Revere demonstrated they not only had the chops\, but the heart to reach their audience and leave an undeniable impression as well. As the floorboards shook with each pounding stomp\, one thing was certain: the band announced they had arrived\, loud and clear.” – Dispatch Magazine \n“Simply put North is an album that shouldn’t be missed. (It will) make even the most callous of individuals feel the unbridled joy of Holler-Folk.” – Ear to the Ground Music \n“A distinguished sound that only seasoned musicians can usually attain” – Portland Press Herald \n“(The Ghost of Paul Revere) stole the show. I was so impressed with them. Their harmonies\, stomping percussion\, and vocal power were stellar… their songs progressed from mellow to powerhouse… their harmonies are superb and their songs have power.” – whatbreesees.com

SUMMARY:Perfume Genius
DESCRIPTION:Bowery Boston presents \nDoors: 6:00 pm / Show: 6:30 pm \nThis event is 18 and over. Patrons under 18 admitted if accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.\nTickets on sale Fri. 2/17 at noon! \nTickets available at AXS.COM\, or by phone at 888-929-7849. No service charge on tickets purchased in person at The Sinclair Box Office Wednesdays-Saturdays 12-7PM. Please note: box office is cash only. \nPerfume Genius has partnered with Plus 1 so that $1 from every ticket goes to support the ACLU and their work defending and protecting our individual rights and liberties. \n*** \n \n*** \nPerfume Genius \n \n[Website] [Facebook] [Twitter] \nOver the course of two astonishing albums\, Perfume Genius\, aka Seattle native Mike Hadreas\, cemented his place as a singer-songwriter of rare frankness\, creating songs that\, while achingly emotional\, offered empathy and hope\, rather than any judgment or handwringing. Sparse\, gorgeous and with Hadreas’ quavering vocals often only accompanied by piano\, they were uncommonly beautiful tales of a life lived on the dark side – scarred\, brutalised\, yet ultimately\, slowly but surely reclaimed.\n“Too Bright”\, however\, is something else altogether. Less self-conscious\, and less concerned with storytelling and easily-digested melodies\, it is a brave\, bold\, unpredictably quixotic exploration of what Hadreas calls “an underlying rage that has slowly been growing since ten and has just begun to bubble up.” This sharp U-turn came early in the writing process\, when a creatively frustrated and uninspired Hadreas decided not to write what he thought people might want to hear – or as he describes it\, “mid tempo Adele songs\, carefully plotting each chord and lyric like math” – but focus instead on writing what came naturally\, 100% visceral and unfiltered\, no matter what the potential reception might be. “I looked to PJ Harvey”\, he recalls. “How powerful and raw she can be\, and thought\, “what is my version of that?”‘\nThe resultant album\, then\, is a stunning about-face which brings to mind audacious career-shift albums like Kate Bush’s The Dreaming or Scott Walker’s Tilt\, records which walk the tightrope between pure songwriting and overt experimentation. Here\, Hadreas is aided in his efforts by not one\, but two unlikely conspirators – John Parish\, who plays drums on several tracks\, and Portishead’s Adrian Utley\, who\, as producer\, brought the physical resources to flesh out the songs in innovative ways. According to Hadreas\, Utley was the key to unlocking hitherto unexplored terrain on the album\, using both synths and organic instrumentation to push the tracks to darker and more unreal heights. The album is also rounded off with key contributions from longtime touring band members Alan Wyffels and Hervé Bécart.\nThe fragile yet defiant “I Decline” opens the album\, draped in hushed\, languorous beauty\, but it is an outlier. The interim between “Put Your Back N 2 It” and “Too Bright” has seen Perfume Genius grow claws and fangs\, and he is unafraid to draw blood. On the following track (and first single) “Queen”\, the line “Don’t you know your queen?” booms out over ominous guitars\, not so much a genuine question as a rhetorical one\, as Hadreas proceeds to deconstruct gay panic with relish. Even with a wordless\, albeit soaring and cacophonous symphony of a chorus it sounds huge\, anthemic\, a gleeful kiss off to what he describes as “faces of blank fear when I walk by…if these fucking people want to give me some power – if they see me as some sea witch with penis tentacles that are always prodding and poking and seeking to convert the muggles – well\, here she comes”.\nThat mischevious sense of defiance runs rampant through the album. A surreal threat hangs over songs like “My Body” and “Grid”\, with piercing screams\, tribal drums and electronic stabs highlighting disturbing lyrics of self-destruction and temporary respite from the darkness. On “Fool” meanwhile\, deceptively swinging doo-wop rhythms disguise a story of social mutiny\, with Hadreas tearing into the stereotype of “a walking\, talking candelabra”\, and rejecting it for something much more volatile and dangerous. “Ive met people that laugh at EVERYTHING i say”\, he muses. “I could be talking about OJ or Munchausens Syndrome or bloody stool – I am still just the cutest thing. Here only to enrich their lives\, not have one of my own. Make their dress\, tell them how great their boobs look and then peace. Isnt he the best?”\nWhich is not to say that Hadreas has completely abandoned the shimmering\, exquisite piano ballads that he is so known for. “No Good” is a heartbreaking meditation on a difficult life lived on the outside but “spent looking in”\, while the somber closer “All Along” is a resigned yet firm rebuke to acceptance and reassurance from external forces\, preferring instead to find refuge from within – “I have my love”\, Hadreas asserts\, “and I apply it where I need to”. This\, in fact\, is the overarching theme of “Too Bright”; the connective tissue loosely joining up these 11 stunning\, weird and wonderful tracks – the discovery of strength and power where previously he felt he had little. As he himself puts it\, during the making of the album\, it felt “like i had woken some ancient beast which began to rattle and threaten to rise”. With this record\, consider the demon awoken. There’s no turning back now. \n*** \nserpentwithfeet \n \n[Website] [Facebook] [Twitter] \nAfter spending years studying as a classical vocalist\, 27-year-old Baltimore-born artist serpentwithfeet (a nom de plume for Josiah Wise) spent time drifting around Paris and London before eventually landing in NYC. It was here that his music-a beautiful confluence of gospel and classically-inflected electronica-began to truly take shape.\n“I decided in 2012 or in 2013 that I didn’t want a band anymore\,” he recalls\, “I was like\, “What would happen if I did my R&B thing over this classical shit” It took a while\, but I started to wonder if I could make something that satisfies other people and myself. I want the music to resonate with people. I didn’t start thinking about that until I moved to New York\, to be honest.”\nblisters is serpentwithfeet’s first EP from Tri Angle Records. After spending a few years experimenting-both musically and visually-in NYC’s underground queer music scene (“I was basically just posting something new every week on Soundcloud\, waiting for someone to take notice\,” he says)\, Wise eventually struck on a sound and a sentiment that made sense. On “four ethers\,” the third single to be taken from blisters\, serpentwithfeet wonders aloud what it would feel like to be violently transparent\, and finds him in pursuit of a rare honesty. Huge swathes of strings and percussion emphatically rise and crash turbulently against Wise’s questioning voice as he ultimately asks: “How can I touch somebody who wont even touch themselves?” “four ethers” might be serpentwithfeet’s most powerful and dramatic work to date.\nA similar kind of emotional dynamic runs throughout all of blisters. Tracks like “penance” and “redemption” vacillate between hushed intimacy and huge emotional swells. On the EP’s title track\, Wise’s multi-tracked voice plays against gently-plucked harp and syncopated handclaps\, the record’s gospel affectations and slinky R&B tropes fusing into something unique\, exotic\, and strangely beautiful. Meanwhile\, surrounded by strings\, subtle electronics and Wise’s restrained piano playing–and buoyed aloft by production courtesy of The Haxan Cloak- the EP’s first single\, “flickering\,” is the perfect showcase for Wise’s powerhouse voice. “I’m starting to feel the cord connecting us two is made of gossamer\,” he sings. “I’m starting to feel there’s no cord between us two/are we made of gossamer?” The track unspools with a kind of hushed intimacy\, the tone and tenor of Wise’s voice rising and falling like a breath until the song itself crests and flutters before disappearing completely.\nGiven that he credits both Brandy and Bjork as inspirations\, it’s not surprising that serpentwithfeet treads a fine line between emotive gospel and more left-of-centre stylings. With his own gloriously outré personal style and penchant for the dramatic\, it also makes sense that the music Wise makes would be so remarkably unclassifiable. “It feels very free because I also feel very free\,” he says. “I don’t feel like being gay restricts me in the same way I also don’t feel like being black restricts me. In fact\, it only makes me more interesting. Making music has always been about making a space for myself in the world. My theory has always been that if you walk into a room and say\, ‘This is my room’-it’s your room. The End.”

It was recorded at Electric Sun Studios with Stevie Knight and Dave Petrovic (Tonight Alive\, Hands Like Houses\, Northlane) at the helm. \nThe response by the fans has been overwhelming with the EP rocketing to #2 on the iTunes Alternative charts and #10 on the overall iTunes albums chart. \nThe four-piece’s popularity is a product of solid touring and hard work over the past twelve months supporting the likes of You Me At Six\, Tonight Alive\, Kids In Glass Houses\, Neck Deep and more recently\, Marianas Trench. The constant touring has also heavily influenced the band’s maturity in their song writing which is evident on ‘Distance’. \nThe recent ‘Distance’ tour saw the band return to Sydney\, Newcastle\, Brisbane\, Perth and Melbourne – their first headlining tour since their sold out April 2014 “I Will Never Wait” run. \n*** \nDon Broco \n \n[Website] [Facebook] \nRob Damiani – Vocals\nMatt Donnelly – Drums\nSimon Delaney – Guitar\nTom Doyle – Bass

SUMMARY:[SOLD OUT] Marian Hill
DESCRIPTION:Bowery Boston presents \nDoors: 7:00 pm / Show: 8:00 pm \nThis event is 18 and over. Patrons under 18 admitted if accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. \nSOLD OUT \n*** \n \n*** \nMarian Hill \n \n[Website] [Facebook] [Twitter] \nAct One\, the debut full-length from songwriting duo Marian Hill\, was written and produced in its entirety by Jeremy Lloyd (music/lyrics/production) and Samantha Gongol (music/lyrics/vocals). The multi- talented duo\, who have been collaborating in one form or another since high school\, have shifted the classic paradigm of a woman on a stage and a man with a piano to a woman on a mic and a man with a laptop — and the results are seductive and vivid. Tempting paradox with a blend of blues and bass\, acoustic and digital\, classic and modern\, Marian Hill have arrived. \nTwo years ago Sam and Jeremy wrote and recorded “Whisky” over spring break in Jeremy’s parents’ basement. When they released it for free on Soundcloud later that summer it was the only song they’d written for the project\, and in a little over a year’s time they had recorded their first EP in a bedroom\, amassed millions of plays on various platforms\, sold out shows across the country and featured in high profile commercials. They signed to Republic Records in early 2015\, released the Sway EP\, and settled in to write and record their debut album over the course of the following year with a plan to push their unique sound to its fullest potential. \nFor the first 50 seconds of “Down” you might think you’re at a supper club in the 1920s\, but when the bass drops out of nowhere you couldn’t be anywhere but 2016. Act One then takes you on a journey through the complexities of modern relationships\, with each song inhabiting a specific and charged relationship lyrically\, melodically\, and sonically. “I Know Why” constantly transforms and reinvents itself as the vocals grapple with a secret while “Mistaken” is the hardest of sax trap with a classic songwriting backbone. “Same Thing” is the saddest part of the album\, a haunting ballad depicting serene resignation of a doomed relationship\, but castanets rise from the ashes as “I Want You” closes out the night in a pure moment of optimistic electricity\, a glance across a crowded room that changes everything. \nMarian Hill’s one of a kind sound is present throughout — blues harmonies blend with sparse hip hop drums\, horns blast under classic vocal melodies\, and soloistic vocal chops sit side by side with clear\, intimate lyrics. You’ve never heard this before\, yet it’s surprisingly familiar. And it’s only the beginning. \n*** \nOpia \n \n[Website] [Facebook] [Twitter] \nCole and Jacob met as Math and Physics majors at Yale University and began recording and collaborating on different music projects. Jacob’s extensive production and arrangement background clicked instantly with Cole’s guitar and vocal songwriting experience. At the top of 2016\, the duo spent three weeks living out of an underground studio in New Haven\, writing music for what would become Opia. Their debut release “Falling” instantly became a viral hit\, rocketing to the top of the Spotify\, Hype Machine\, and SoundCloud charts.

SUMMARY:[SOLD OUT] Michael Kiwanuka
DESCRIPTION:Bowery Boston presents \nDoors: 7:00 pm / Show: 8:00 pm \nThis event is 18 and over. Patrons under 18 admitted if accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. \nSOLD OUT! \nRoyale is general admission standing room only. \n*** \n \n*** \nMichael Kiwanuka \n \n[Website] [Facebook] [Twitter] \n“This album is led by emotion. So making melodies that capture you was my priority. I was just asking one question\, does it move you?” \nSoulful and raw\, Londoner Michael Kiwanuka’s critically-acclaimed debut album ‘Home Again’ (April 2012) staked his claim on the list of great British singer-songwriters. As a body of work\, Home Again was a genre-defying nod to the heritage names of soul\, and reinforced the real strength of young British music talent. \nHaving taken a deep breath and relaxed into his musical approach\, Kiwanuka is back\, and has delivered his eagerly anticipated second album – and it packs a powerful punch. If his last album was about returning home again\, this is about leaving it behind and stepping out – and finding himself outside his comfort zone. Love & Hate is an outward-looking\, drenched with emotional density and rich\, soulful production at the helm. \nTwo years in the making\, the British Ugandan Londoner has worked with new talent and created a canvas which sees his vulnerability take centre stage. While previous comparisons have been made to the sensual jazzy folk-soul of Terry Callier or Otis Redding\, in reality\, this simmering\, blues-inflected pop-soul offering\, this masterpiece\, takes the foundation of those artists and ignites the genre with new energy and thrill. \nIt’s no surprise that Kiwanuka cites the elaborate\, expressive music of Marvin Gaye\, Isaac Hayes and John Lennon as influences\, and when he speaks of what he loves about his heroes\, (“The melancholy and the sheer honesty of Gaye. He doesn’t hide behind his lyrics”) he could so easily be describing himself. \nKiwanuka describes himself as being “obsessed” with the guitar growing up (and tells a great story about how seeing a documentary on Jimi Hendrix as a teen\, and realising he was black\, opened up something in him). Now\, after countless accolades following his debut and providing support Adele on her 2011 live tour\, he’s showing us exactly what he’s learned. \n“The confessional aspect is cathartic for me. You accept it\, once it’s done\, it’s out there. That’s the therapeutic nature of it. Now\, I’m living in a way where I’m not apologising. My first album I was just worried about everything.” \nMusically\, this uncompromising fluency of expression means he is as exciting as he’s ever sounded. That\, alongside a fresh ear for production\, thanks to two new producers\, elevated his sound from his debut offering. One of which was a young London-based producer called Inflo\, who he co-wrote the lead single\, ‘Black Man In A White World’ with\, and the other\, the mighty Brian Joseph Burton\, aka Danger Mouse who was intrigued by Michael’s previous work and asked to work with him. The American producer and songwriter who is best known for his work producing for Gnarls Barkley\, Gorillaz and the Black Keys\, was ultimately recruited for his aptitude for applying heritage music in a fresh way\, and was exactly was Kiwanuka was looking for. It was this new approach being directed by Danger Mouse that allowed Kiwanuka to really revisit himself again. \n“The first album was way more technical.” He says. “It was like\, ‘OK\, we need exactly the right drum sound and an old mic\, and the perfect guitar sound’. I love that stuff and I always will\, but Brian changed my perspective on it. I realised it the music wasn’t just about deconstructing the instruments\, it was to feel.” \nIt was this team and fresh outlook that re-ignited Kiwanuka’s creative energy after a period of self-doubt\, and much of the album was written across London\, and out of his comfort zone of LA. He says\, “I wanted to give up making music after my first album\, but this made me realise that I just needed a new approach to really reflect who I am now.” \nLove & Hate is a confident expression of Kiwanuka taking things at his own pace\, which at times\, brings you to a standstill. One such track is ‘Black Man in A White World’\, perhaps Kiwanuka’s most remarkable moment. Inspired by the old southern blues of American blues singer Son House\, he takes us with him as he discusses his worldview. The song deals with his issues of race\, diasporic identity and anxiety\, and is a captivating moment of sonic vulnerability and power. The clipped bass claps punctuate each word and as he sings\, “I’m a black man in a white world/I’m in love but I’m still sad/I found peace but I’m not glad” and with that\, we get a sense of his duality. \nTalking about it\, he explains\, “That song is about all the sadness and frustrations of childhood\, of being one of very few black kids in Muswell Hill\, and never feeling like fitting in. It’s about not feeling like I could be a rock star\, of always being categorised as jazz\, of attending the Royal Academy of Music and seeing no black people on the course\, and thinking just how much I was a black man in a white world. ” \nIt is the ability to allow his pain to rise to the surface where Kiwanuka really excels. On ‘Cold Little Heart’\, the slow build of tension as he asks the heart wrenching question\, “Did you ever want it?” takes us to his raw pain over gentle piano lines and soft hums\, as he reinforces that we are all vulnerable in love. It’s a theme he takes further on ‘Final Frame’ where he takes us to the point after committing to a relationship\, delving into what happens next. \nHe explores his spiritual relationship with God on ‘Father’s Child’ as he gently sings\, “I’ve been searching for miles and miles/Looking for someone to walk with me”. He likens the ad-libs to “speaking in tongues” and takes images from his childhood at church. “that song is about purpose really\, its about walking with someone. And those ad-libs feel like tongues\, lyrics that pour out from the heart before the brain has had time to process them.” \nOn where he finds himself now\, he says\, “A lot of this album was grappling with the insecurities that I’d learned. The first album was grappling with faith. Here\, I’m not so worried about that – I’ve accepted that it comes and goes\, and now\, I’m left with myself.” \nHonest\, unabashed\, and ambitious\, this is Kiwanuka emerging from the emotional cocoon of his first album\, and ready to secure his position as one of our most exciting homegrown talents. It’s a new world since his debut\, and it seems that it’s his for the taking. \n*** \nCloves \n \n[Website] [Facebook] [Twitter] \nMelbourne\, Australia\nScandinavian Soothing Metal

DESCRIPTION:Bowery Boston presents \nDoors: 8:00 pm / Show: 9:00 pm \nThis event is 18 and over. Patrons under 18 admitted if accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.\nTickets on sale Fri. 4/7 at 10AM! \nTickets available at AXS.COM\, or by phone at 855-482-2090. No service charge on tickets purchased in person at The Sinclair Box Office Wednesdays-Saturdays 12-7PM. Please note: box office is cash only. \n*** \n \n*** \nAIR \n \n[Website] [Facebook] [Twitter] \nWho has never finished reading a book and instantly missed its familiar universe and characters who had just become friends? Who has never felt like re-reading it all over again and felt envious of the new readers who will discover it for the first time ? Air\, the French band who wrote such a music novel\, belongs to that category. The light but dense electro-acoustic pop of the band created in the mid-90’s influenced several generations and left its mark on the sound of its time. Along the way\, Air has produced cult albums (Moon Safari in 1998\, The Virgin Suicides in 2000)\, clever pop LPs (Talkie Walkie in 2004)\, rich experimentations (10 000 Hz Legend in 2001) and various collaborations (with Beck and Radiohead producer Nigel Godrich\, Charlotte Gainsbourg on her 5:55 album\, Jarvis Cocker…). \nFor most of the listeners\, playing this best-of will be like reliving the magic of past travels. For others\, it will be a call to join the band and embark into a unique and epic music journey. There will be also new adventures for the most loyal fans : in addition to a first CD featuring 17 classic tracks\, two more CDs are full of rare and unreleased tracks and remixes for other artists and themselves. A reminder of the ever-surprising Air universe. \nSince they met in a Versailles high-school in the 1980’s before becoming Air in the mid-90’s\, Nicolas Godin and Jean-Benoît Dunckel have never stopped claiming the volatile aspect of their music. Each project constitutes its own and unique planet. The retro-futuristic compositions of Moon Safari’s\, their first international success in 1998\, were the soundtrack of a whole generation of teenagers’s trips to heaven. On the opposite side\, The Virgin Suicides\, recorded for Sofia Coppola’s film in 2000\, was the Dark side of the Moon Safari with its gothic and dreamlike tracks conveying teenage trouble. Earthier and more experimental\, the very sophisticated 10 000 Hz Legend (2001) welcomes the band into adulthood before the accomplishment of Talkie Walkie (2004)\, a true pop masterpiece followed by Pocket Symphony in 2007 and Love 2 in 2009. Then\, the band flew once again to the Moon in 2012 for the masterful and dreamlike soundtrack of the restored version of Georges Méliès’s film « Le Voyage dans la Lune ». An eerie project featuring the track Moon Fever\, available in this best-of. This fructuous collaboration with every art form was renewed with Music For Museum\, recorded in 2014 for the Lille Palais des Beaux-Arts. Inspired by the museum collection\, Air wrote the nine tracks (including Land Me\, the last track of CD1) of a music ballet. A unique art and music experience. \nSoon after forming\, Air was labelled as a French Touch act because their early tracks featured in Premiers Symptômes (1997) shared some similarities with Daft Punk\, Phoenix or Etienne de Crécy who also became first famous in the UK. Yet\, this best-of proves that their singularity set them apart from this movement. Away from the world explosion of French electronica\, their compositions still sound fresh 10\, 15 or 20 years later. They are timeless\, which was the band’s first ambition : « to create classic standards ». \nBeyond the caricatural use of some effects (the vocoder and the Moog) or the simplistic « easy-listening » categorization\, this success is the actual result of the creative process. The power and timelessness of these tracks come from a prodigious music knowledge and a never-ending passion for instruments (from the Fender Rhodes electric piano to the Japanese koto) and gear. From classical music (Bach or Debussy) to soundtracks (Aaron Copland\, Nino Rota\, Ennio Morricone\, John Barry)\, sixties French pop (Michel Legrand\, Michel Polnareff\, Michel Berger\, Serge Gainsbourg\, Françoise Hardy…) to The Beatles\, Brian Eno\, David Bowie or Kraftwerk\, Nicolas Godin and Jean-Benoît Dunckel sublimate all their personal influences to create a rich\, dense and deep atmosphere. Beyond time. Into Air. \nThibaut Wychowanok

SUMMARY:[SOLD OUT] Banks
DESCRIPTION:Bowery Boston presents \nDoors: 7:00 pm / Show: 8:00 pm \nThis event is 18 and over. Patrons under 18 admitted if accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. \nTHIS SHOW IS SOLD OUT! \n*** \nBanks \n \n[Website] [Facebook] [Twitter] \n“Tell me what you want from me. I think you need a weaker girl\, kinda like the girl I used to be\,” sings Banks on “Weaker Girl\,” with a voice that is both reflective and self-assured. The song is from The Altar\, Banks’ new album due September 30th on Harvest Records\, and embodies a new kind of strength for the artist–not one that she didn’t have before\, but that she’s now embracing in full. \n“This is me looking in the mirror and being present in the moment\,” she says. “Not being scared of change\, and not being scared of my own strength and my own power.” \nWhen Banks broke out with 2014’s Goddess\, she became the world’s most blogged about artist\, with a voice compared to the likes of Fiona Apple\, Erykah Badu and Lauryn Hill\, and a sound that took alt-pop and R&B to electrifying new places. With every song written and controlled creatively by Banks\, The Altar pushes those edges even further\, and pulls no punches. It’s an inspiring confrontation of complicated love\, pain\, and self-doubt. \n“I pushed myself. I pushed my boundaries. I found my own strengths while making this album\,” she says. “I found that when I needed a shoulder to lean on\, I could be that shoulder for myself.” \nThe album opens with Banks alone on piano\, her voice distant and reverberant. “And to think you would get me to the altar\,” she sings on “Gemini Feed.” “Like I’d follow you around like a dog that needs water. But admit it you just wanted me smaller\, if you woulda let me grow you coulda kept my love.” And then grow she does–the song swells with core-shaking beats\, and her stirring voice turns resolute: “Open up your eyes.” \nNowhere is Banks’ fearless self-confrontation more evident than in “Fuck With Myself\,” which Zane Lowe premiered in July as a Beats 1 “World Record.” “I fuck with myself more than anybody else\,” sings Banks\, cutting through propulsive beats and ominous grooves. In the powerful\, jarring video she dances and struggles with contortionists wearing her image. “In the video I’m looking in a mirror\, because it’s like looking at myself with open eyes. My hair is not in my face anymore. I feel less scared to be seen.” \nOn the haunting\, slow-burning “Mind Games\,” she challenges us to do just that: “Do I ever have to notice? I’ve been standing here and I don’t know why. Did you ever even see me try? Do you see me now? Do you see me now? Do you see me now?” \nOther songs on the album like “Mother Earth” are fearless in their vulnerability–led by strings and acoustic guitar\, Banks sings “Follow me to my bed\, cause every time you fall I’ll be holding your head up. And when will you get tired of feeling bad? And every time you fall\, follow me.” \n“I wrote that song when I was feeling sickened by this weight that society puts on women\,” she says. “It tries to make them want to be as small as possible and take up as little space as possible. Be as perfect and wrapped up in a bow as possible. My sister just gave birth to a baby girl and I just I felt really sad and scared for her because I didn’t want her to feel how I have felt.” \nThe album\, which features collaborations with producers and writers including Tim Anderson\, SOHN\, DJ Dahi\, and Jenna Andrews\, was driven by Banks’ deep\, insistent need for raw expression and solace. \n“Once I was ready to write again it really just poured out of me\,” she says. “It was just like my body needed it so bad. I think I was probably chomping at the bit to put everything that I had gone through on paper. I went through a depression while I was creating\, and it came out in my music in the best way–not in a sad way\, but all of this deep-seated stuff that was weighing on my mind.” \nAnd the album’s title\, The Altar\, honors the spiritual experience of that creation. \n“Sometimes it feels like the inspirations for my songs come from somewhere else\, where I’m not even thinking\, they just come out\,” says Banks. “My music and my songs\, they feel like my religion\, and the altar is the holiest place there is.” \n–Evie Nagy

In the center of the stage was a huge\, almost cartoonish turntable anchored by the Jurassic 5 logo in its center. Scratches are heard from DJ Nu-Mark and Cut Chemist\, the beat drops and Zaakir emerges\, mic in hand\, followed by Chali 2na’s distinct\, baritone cadence. Then Marc 7 and Akil join the onstage theatrics and for a moment it felt like 1997 all over again. Not bad for a group that called it quits in 2007. This was 2013 and like David Bowie once said: “It was alright…the band was back together.”\nJurassic 5 was in fact formed of six members; two DJs/Producers coupled with four distinct rappers who\, when performing sequences simultaneously\, was perfectly tempered\, making their early releases stand above the experimental rap that was burgeoning at the time. They weren’t throwback or old school\, but they embodied a nostalgic sound that was also at once fresh. Their first release\, The Jurassic 5 EP\, had songs like “Concrete Schoolyard” and “Jayou”\, quickly turned heads to their relaxed yet detailed sound. It also contained “Lesson 6: The Lecture”\, an instrumental opus that underscored the group’s deep production value. Fans worldwide became aware of J5’s dynamic stage show during this era.\nTheir next release\, a gold selling Quality Control\, was a more fully realized effort which was a charting album on the Billboard Charts\, peaking at #43 and largely introduced them to the masses worldwide. Tracks like “Quality Control”\, “Jurass Finish First” and “Swing Set” – became the group’s signature sound\, a development of intricate yet simple back-and-forth group dynamics accompanied by deep rooted production from Cut Chemist and DJ Nu-Mark. As momentum snowballed\, their next effort\, Power in Numbers produced “Day At The Races” featuring legendary Big Daddy Kane and a Hip Hop classic entitled “What’s Golden” which led the group to performances on national television including Conan Obrien and David Letterman.\nFeedback (released and distributed worldwide by Interscope) both reached #15 on the Billboard Charts in 2006\, would be their last official outing\, as Cut Chemist left to pursue solo works. They toured the globe\, made fans internationally while many rediscovered their back-catalogue. A year later\, the group parted ways. In the years in between\, their lore grew on soundtracks and in video games. Members’ solo efforts were well received. Given that everyone left amicably\, a reunion was always possible\, and yielded two huge European tours when it finally did. A performance at Japan’s Fuji Rock was particularly praised which led to more large-scale North American tour-stops. It had been sixteen years since their “playground tactics\, the rabbit in a hat trick” and not a beat had skipped.\nThe six-member tribe\, now of age and full of know-how\, are reaching a stage in their career where their full rise will be marked in an upcoming documentary feature currently in the works. This March J5 will tour Singapore\, Australia\, New Zealand and Hawaii. In June they are back in Europe for a 3 week run…Then in July and August\, their spectacular ‘Word Of Mouth’ Tour featuring Dilated Peoples\, & The World Famous Beat Junkies.\nAs DJ Nu-Mark aptly told the LA Times before their reunion at Coachella\, this right here is a “Rebirth”. \n*** \nShaheed and DJ Supreme \n \nFacebook \nCommunicating Vessels’ recording artists Shaheed and DJ Supreme are one of hip hops’ most consistent groups. Hailing from Birmingham\, AL Shaheed and DJ Supreme don’t fit the mold of most typical dirty south artists as they are practitioners of traditional boom-bap hip hop. They’ve already released two critcally acclaimed LPs (Health Wealth & Knowledge of Self and Scholar Warrior (The Remix Album) which showcases Shaheed’s sharp lyrical prowess and DJ Supreme’s soulful production. As a group\, Shaheed and DJ Supreme has shared stages with Raekwon\, DJ Shiftee\, The Bodega Brovas and Stalley\, as well as label mates The Green Seed. Their albums boast guest appearances from artists such as Akil the MC (of Jurassic 5)\, Amir Sulaiman\, and W. Ellington Felton. Their highly anticipated 3rd LP Knowledge Rhythm and Understanding will be released soon on Communicating Vessels.
