SOMM RECORDINGS is pleased to announce a sparkling recital of Virtuoso Piano Transcriptions spanning two centuries from Bach to Gershwin by pianist Alessandro Taverna. During its peak popularity in the century from 1820, the art of transcription provided access in both the home and the concert hall to the riches of the symphonic and operatic repertoires through the conduit of the piano. Recorded as part of the 2018/2019 Piano Series at Turner Sims, Southampton, Alessandro Taverna celebrates a lost art that made great music available to the widest audience in an era before the first recordings and radio. Treated to a masterly re-imagining by Rachmaninov, Bachs Third Violin Partita opens a recital that also showcases Taverna elegant virtuosity at the keyboard. A characteristically combustible re-working of themes from Mozarts Don Giovanni, Liszts Réminiscences de Don Juan takes full advantage of the pianos full orchestral range and sounds all the more remarkable in Tavernas by turns poetic and powerful performance. Liszt's transcriptions of three Schubert songs reveal his sensitivity to the originals and his appreciation of the pianos ability to conjure fantasy to mesmeric effect, his paraphrase of Verdis Rigoletto a miniature marvel for the piano.

Artist: Pianos Become The Teeth
Title: Keep You (Deluxe Edition)
Year Of Release: 2015
Label: Epitaph
Genre: post-rock, indie

Post-hardcore band Pianos Become the Teeth formed in late 2006 in Baltimore, Maryland. A prominent group in what is often referred to as "The Wave," they, along with acts like Touché Amoré, La Dispute, and Defeater, represented the vanguard of post-hardcore's new generation of bands. Blending heavy elements of screamo with a more melodic post-rock sensibility, the band, led by singer and lyricist Kyle Durfey, quickly carved out a niche for itself with its 2009 debut album, Old Pride. The album was quickly picked up by Boston indie Top Shelf Records and reissued nationally the following year. Following a split EP with the Saddest Landscape in late 2010, they began sessions for their second album, which would boast a darker, heavier tone than their previous work. The Lack Long After was released in November of 2011 and the band launched into an extensive tour with Touché Amoré and Seahaven. Pianos Become the Teeth continued to develop and evolve over the coming two years both on- and off-stage, and in early 2014 signed a major deal with Epitaph Records to release their third LP. Arriving in October 2014, the Will Yip-produced Keep You was another stylistic departure for the band, dialing back some of the aggression in favor of a more nuanced and melodic post-rock sound.

AllMusic Review by Thom Jurek
Over a decade, folk-blues songwriter Otis Taylor has come up with compelling, often puzzling album titles; Clovis People, Vol. 3 is no exception. For starters, there aren't any previous volumes. Also, the Clovis People he refers to don't exist. Their name was chosen by archaeologists near Taylor's own home in Pueblo, Colorado, who discovered the tools and pottery of a culture that had died out over 13,000 years ago.
Taylor's approach is quite spare and atmospheric, though his ensemble is sometimes exotic: some of his guests include jazz trumpeter Ron Miles, electric guitar slinger Gary Moore, Fara Tolno on djembe, pedal steel guitarist Chuck Campbell, and his regulars, daughter Cassie on bass and theremin, and Larry Thompson on drums, along with assorted guests. Taylor's trademark vocals and guitar are ever-present. These blues are moody, sometimes menacing: "Little Willie" is a narrative account of a young boy shot dead on a school playground. A biting lead guitar line is answered by Taylor's stuttering rhythmic one. Campbell's pedal steel weaves between the two as Cassie's bass rumbles, and the skeletal, pulsing crackle of Thompson's kit heats up Taylor's moan toward a biting crescendo. On "Rain So Hard," Miles' trumpet paints Taylor's National steel with ethereal single notes and short runs, as a theremin, pedal steel, and a cello fill out the bottom. It's a slow, hypnotic John Lee Hooker-esque shuffle about lost love. "Lee and Arnez" is a folk song textured by Moore's trademark guitar snarl, a violin, and an organ. Its fragmented narrative is about race and changing times. Taylor's reclaiming the ghosts of people he knew and staking a claim to what was always true, even if America didn't know it at the time (and may still not): "There's no color/there's no difference." "Ain't No Cowgirl" features Moore's electric guitar against Tolno's djemebe. They snake and pulse under a sparse lyric about a truly dangerous woman. "Think I Won't" returns us to the school yard. Fiddle, pedal steel, bass, guitars, and drums create the musical backbone that allows a mother to confront a drug dealer. How it ends Taylor doesn't say, but the music offers enough pent-up rage and righteous anger that we can guess. Clovis People, Vol. 3 adds significantly to Taylor's increasingly ambitious body of work. He mines new territory from an ancient--perhaps prehistoric--blues with grit, humanity, and an elliptical musical personality.

They used to say that Leonard Cohen wrote songs to slash your wrists to and whilst Dylan Stewart's fourth album 'The Scarecrow Sessions' isn't quite in that league, it certainly isn't an album to blow away the blues. Dylan Stewart is renowned for writing some of his best work in the dead of night, or when he's in the depth of grief, and it shows on this collection of twelve numbers.
The somewhat depressing nature of these songs could be accounted for by the traumatic time Stewart was going through when he was writing them. His father, Danny Wayne Stewart had died, as had his musical mentor, Tom Skinner. He also broke up with his girlfriend around the same time, quit playing with his band The Eulogists and quit his day job, so it's not surprising that there is a mournful quality to most songs on the album.
'The Scarecrow Sessions' was the last album recorded at Ryan Houck's North Broadway Studio in Hydro just before it closed down so Stewart would be forgiven if he believed that if it wasn't for bad luck, he would have no luck at all! As Stewart himself said, "It was songs from the hardest time of my life, really, emotionally, and I was dealing with it kind of on my own and self-destructively a little bit. And it really comes through with the music. After that, I think I just started cutting ties to everything in my life".
There have been some discussions recently on this website about attempting to define Americana and if anyone didn't know, the 'The Scarecrow Sessions' is something of an archetype. Instrumentally there's some banjo, acoustic guitars, dobro, harmonica, pedal steel, and mandolin. Throw in some songs about southern lands, the American Civil War, churches with song titles like 'Cherokee Purples', 'Major John Miles' and 'Jeremiah', add Stewart's laid-back, relaxed lo-fi vocals and you there you have Americana in a nutshell.
On Stewart's Facebook page there a couple of comments from fans, one of which describes his voice as "very soothing" and another that says "really makes you feel relaxed" so 'The Scarecrow Sessions' is not an album to get up and dance to, but it is a record that gets right to the heart of Dylan Stewart, so if you want to listen to a man baring his soul at a very difficult time in his life, give it a listen.

Shoulders was a highly popular alternative rock band in Austin, Texas in the 1990s; occasionally they still give performances. Shoulders toured nationally and throughout Europe, and they were especially well known in France and other European countries. Their material, written almost entirely by lead singer Michael Slattery and guitarist Todd Kassens, has been called "drunken carnival music," but it was wide-ranging, from hard rock to gentle ballads, from sea shanties to French cabaret music to Irish drinking songs. Slattery, an electrifying performer, is probably one of the greatest American rock poets[citation needed]; his songs tell stories, and they read wonderfully even without the music[citation needed]. They are simultaneously very dark and wildly joyous. He is also an accomplished writer of fiction, poetry, and drama.
Shoulders' lineup included Slattery, who sang and played everything from a huge parade drum which he also used as a trampoline to the "harmonica, out-of-tune cornet, hideous trombone, bent tin whistle," and "free-hanging river pipe"; Kassens on the guitars; Alan Gene Williams on the drums; and Chris Black on bass, piano, and organ. They were frequently accompanied by the well-known Austin cellist John Hagen, who plays in Lyle Lovett's large band. Shoulders' first album, Trashman Shoes, rose to the top of the rock charts in France. Their second was The Fun Never Stops, which did well in Europe but never attained the success of "Trashman Shoes".
Shoulders frequently played at the "Hole in the Wall" at the top of the Drag on Guadalupe in Austin, and for several years they played regularly at Austin's famous acoustic club the Cactus Cafe.

Truth be told, an artist name evocative of trees and an album title in Latin more than likely sparks images of neo-hippies lamenting on their ukuleles. But don't take that for granted, as Dry Stick delivers an edgy first album that sounds sweet as a dove, and still rocks big time. The puppet master behind Dry Stick is the Danish songwriter and brilliant instrumentalist Kudre Haan.
The man is definitely not a newcomer on the music scene, as Haan already has four albums under his nom de plume of Homesick Hank. The maturity of his songwriting is demonstrated throughout the density of 'Annualis Naturalis'. And dense it most certainly is: the album contains an impressive sixteen tracks, in a time where EPs and 8 track LPs are shelled out by the truckload. Each song is a carefully created and recorded piece that not only exhibits the nuanced beauty to be expected in a good hit single, but also fits into a cohesive whole. The mixture of ethereal balads ('Summertime', 'My Refuge'), hard-driving vocal duets with twang ('Morning Bird', 'Where Do We Go'), rocking pedal steel driven numbers ('Gated Community') and delicate instrumentals ('Valse Mélancolique', 'Midsummer') just works.
The record often evokes memories of Neil Young thanks to Haan's tenor vocals, always spot on throughout the record and absolutely superb on the sweeter, whispered stuff ('Easy Summer'). But 'Annualis Naturalis' still sounds modern and just as fresh as a spring night on a Danish beach. The abundance of ambient guitar tracks, crisp piano lines and the multiple tiny aural details sprinkled all over the tracks are a big part of that sound. One thing is for sure - this album will soothe the most discerning ears, spin after spin.
