AUGUST 12: Jenny Graf / Zaimph /Stone Baby — All Female NOISE show — Lost Dog Lounge, 10PM. 18+ $6. Presented by Popcorn Youth

SEPTEMBER 25: John Weise / Tumul / The Bloody Noes — INSANE power electronics / performance art / gothic mayhem — No Radio Records, 8pm. All Ages. $6. Presented by Popcorn Youth

OCTOBER 10: USAISAMONSTER — Brooklyn noise/rock/thrash

OCTOBER 17: Jack Rose / Michael Chapman / Ghost in My Basement — Old/New Weird America; avant, twisted guitar folk ala John Fahey, but made new again — Lost Dog Lounge, 10:30PM. 18+ $6.

Chuck, Phil, and Darick Campbell are an anointed group of accomplished guitarists with instruments tuned to the key of the holy spirit. These musicians were raised in the “sacred steel” style, a rare music tradition rooted in the African-American Holiness-Pentecostal church, commonly known as the House of God. The Campbell Brothers present a compelling, rich variety of material from the African-American Holiness-Pentecostal repertoire with a new twist: the growling, wailing, shouting, singing and swinging voice of the steel guitar, played as you have never heard it played before.

Our intern Corey interviewed the Brothers’ guitarist, Phil Campbell for this week’s Ithaca Times. From the interview:

Popcorn Youth: What is it about the Sacred Steel sound that is so darn infectious?

Campbell: We liken Sacred Steel to being a long lost cousin of the Blues — just when you thought nothing new could be done in that genre along came Sacred Steel with its wailing, moaning and fire breathing guitar solos and kicking rhythm — but the bottom line is all of these things are necessary to move a congregation on Sunday as well as an audience at a festival.

Read the full story in our interviews section here. The concert begins at 8:30pm. Don’t miss out! We know $17 seems like a lot, but this seems like one of those concerts that people around town will be talking about for a long time to come…

This particular form of performance anxiety appears to combine symptoms of withdrawal, an acute hangover, and a distinct case of the DT’s. For the first week my sickness kept me all but bedridden — and certainly far from live venues and bars. Then, this past Saturday, I found myself wandering aimlessly through Taughannock Park, experiencing Horse Flies déjà vu.

As part of my recovery efforts, I offer up a few mentions of records that have gone unnoticed in the past half-year-all of which were released in 2008. You can listen to them anywhere, from your car to your bedroom, and though they don’t match the experience of catching these locals live and in public, they deserve mention. Think of them as musical methadone; I have. (Note: 2008 has been a stellar year so far for local music; please find other record reviews at my website, centrallyisolated.com.)

The Sutras- Those Are Mountains

The twenty minute running length of the Sutras’ new album may initially appear a paltry offering, considering it has been five long years since their last release, the polished pop of 2003’s Thousandaire. But the half dozen songs on Those Are Mountains cover a lot of ground, and each track is so perfectly put together, you might find yourself speculating, as I did, that perhaps a musical world populated with EPs wouldn’t sound so bad.

The Sutras’ Mountains are teeming with characters struggling to get a grasp on their interior and exterior geographies. The narrator in the hard rocking lead track “Sasquatch” is trapped in a cabin of his own design, trying to distinguish tangible fears from imagined ones. Over a riff reminiscent of Cheap Trick, AJ Strauss sings “show me how to stay away far above the human fray.”

Those Are Mountains is anchored by two gems, both of which begin as ballads: the jangly “One Million Criminals” and the epic “Turn Your Baby On.” The former echoes a military march with guitarist Kevin Denton spiraling upwards and Strauss’ layered trumpets create a small orchestra. The result is gorgeous melodrama.

At five minutes, “Turn Your Baby On,” is the longest song in the cycle and the most ambitious. It begins as a more mysterious take on the Mamas and the Papas’ horror story “Dream a Little Dream of Me,” but quickly takes off like an airplane designed by Rube Goldberg.

Those Are Mountains’ title track, brief even for this concept album in the miniature, offers a Sutras’ slant on Stereolab while supplanting that band’s tendency to drone with an urgent intensity.

Overall, Mountains manages to pack a lot of material into as few minutes as possible. Manufactured pop and structured soundscapes seldom sound so present. Pick up the Sutras’ new work, and witness what a four-man rock and roll band can do with a few years and a lot of inspiration.

Hank Roberts-Green

There’s no question that local legend Hank Roberts plays well with others. As a musician whose closest taxonomic category is that of an avant-garde cellist, the poorly-kept secret shared by the myriad peers who range from Bill Frisell to the family Puryear, is that at your side, Roberts makes good music sound great. At GrassRoots he managed to both spice up and space out an encore by the Sutras, bringing dynamism to AJ Strauss’ Theremin extravagance. Roberts somehow soars as he grounds.

At the helm on Green, his latest full-length and first record in 25 years released by the renowned German label Winter & Winter, Roberts offers a solid hour of subtle, textured compositions. Check whatever expectations you might have about experimental jazz at the door: there is nothing uninviting about the naturalistic and at times rustic work.

In the early eighties Roberts was intimately associated with the so-called downtown New York City jazz scene; he primarily played with two well-regarded groups: the Arcado String Trio and Miniature. Stefan Winter’s former label JMT released Roberts’ 1987 meditative Black Pastels and 1992’s Little Motor People. After a long “hiatus,” which for Ithacans meant blessing us with his music-making while only occasionally venturing beyond the our 10 square miles surrounded by reality, Roberts has returned with a varied masterwork.

Green may or may not be ecologically intentioned (its title may draw from the name of Roberts’ own record label, Level Green), but it certainly echoes nature. Opener “Azul” is suffused with the sound of backyards: the patter of rain, rushing water, dispersing clouds. Elsewhere, as on “In the 60’s” and “Cola People,” Roberts’ trademark cello plucking, which is almost guitar-like in its method, invokes folk and rock (the elliptical vocals accentuate this aspect). But the overall impression of Green is of humans inhabiting a space shared with nature, and a conception of music making that is communal, mindful and warm.

Ayurveda-Being

If Roberts makes music that defies easy categorization, rising stars Ayurveda comfortably inhabit a clearly demarcated category: the progressive metal that dominated the pop charts in the early part of this decade. But what’s commonplace across the country is a rarity in Ithaca, and Ayurveda is a welcome distinction from what mostly goes on around town musically.

Initially skeptical for genre reasons, I was blown away by a live show earlier this month at Castaways. These boys are primed for prime time. Their sound, if a tad derivative, is certainly dynamic. And there’s nothing wrong with a polished product when it comes to a long player.

At their best, as on “Live to Grow,” Ayurveda invoke the throbbing careen of Metallica. At their worst, tracks on the self-released Being sound ready for radio airplay. “Borderline” is moody and anthematic in all the right ways. This year, the band offered an alternative to GrassRoots, hitting Castaways for a Saturday night show. It would be a nice surprise to see them incorporated to that line-up next year. By that time they just may be the biggest stars on stage.

In case you do make it out of bed — or the rain — and into the bar this month, there is much to entertain you. If you’re looking for sunshine, you might want to stop by Taughannock Falls State Park this Saturday where Trevor MacDonald (as Who You Are) will perform a free show on the water (parking is $5 for the 7pm show). Also on Saturday, Thousands of One play the Chapter House.

One of the more important benefit concerts this year is for Kyeriel, a local child diagnosed with kidney disease. To be held on July 30, the benefit features performers including the TalkToMes, Sim Redmond Band, Chemical Flaw, and an acoustic set by the Armageddon Monks. Doors open at 5pm; $10 donation. On August 6, the Campbell Brothers hit the Chapter House; the early (8:30pm) show is $17 (pre-sale tickets available at No Radio Records and Volume Records).

The Chapter House has a number of other worthy shows this month. Greg Schatz and his sloppy slide piano band Schatzy hits the Stewart Avenue brewpub August 9; Wingnut with Hank Roberts play the Chappie August 16; Candypants and the Settlers play joint CD release parties August 23; and the Richie Stearns-led Evil City String Band round out the month August 30.

Meanwhile, next door to the Chapter House, the ABC will host Chris Bell Saturday, August 2. Bell, not to be confused with the ex-member of Big Star, is engaged in a canoeing trip across New York, stopping to perform in various upstate cities. It sounds like something to leave the house for.

[MacDonald] displays a confidence not found on earlier recordings, experimenting with different styles and recording techniques. “Vocals, for me, have always been a big challenge. I’ve never been a natural singer … It has taken me a long time to find my voice. I think I’m still on a journey with that,” says MacDonald.

At 10pm, local reggae roots group Thousands of One will perform at the Chapter House. Around the same time, say 10pm or 11pm, Bob and Luke will host another versus dance party at the Lost Dog Lounge with the theme of … the nineties! From Bob’s press release:

Dance Party:
The Nineties.
Saturday August 2nd at
The Lost Dog Lounge
10:30/$3/21+

I could barrage you with cultural references here, but I think it’s best if we all come into this one with our own private Nineties, but if you want an idea of just how many contradictions this decade embraces, I submit the career of one Mr. Mark Wahlberg.  In 1991, Mr. Wahlberg, performing as Marky Mark and backed up by The Funky Bunch, scored a Billboard hit with “Good Vibrations” (not that Beach Boys song).  By 1997, Wahlberg was a respected actor with a breakthrough performance in “Boogie Nights”.  And that’s only six years!  We’re covering TEN!  Just saying, there’s room for Kurt Cobain and Ce Ce Peniston, is all I’m saying.

Damn! I am a master of early nineties soft rock / contemporary r&b, so all I can say is that I hope there’s some Jon Seneca, Enigma, INOJ, and perhaps Sisqo thrown into the mix. Just sayin’

Phew! Lots of good stuff there.

Popcorn Youth: Are there places you’ve been that inspired some of the art in the two Dinotopia books?

Gurney: Places in our world are far more bizarre than places you could dream up if you were trying to come up with a fantasy universe. I think Peter Jackson realized that with Lord of the Rings — the stuff in New Zealand that was just beyond what he could have dreamed of. I went to the American Southwest — the Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon. I also went on location with National Geographic to Jerusalem and Athens and Rome on part of our research and it really fired me up for ancient, ruined cities. I live in the Hudson Valley in New York State and I do a lot of outdoor painting, and a lot of the scenes are based on various on-the-spot paintings that I do. So it’s a fantasy world, but it’s based very much on the real world.

For lovers of science, history or art, their entire conversation is, without a doubt, fascinating and rich. Who hasn’t dreamed about a world in which human beings and dinosaurs peacefully coexist?? Read the full article in our interviews section. See Jake’s two photos from the event at our flickr.

Wednesday, July 30 — The Bug Jar, 219 Monroe Ave.

Hair Police

Pengo

The Bloody Noes

Then, in Albany:

July 31 - UAG Gallery 247 Lark St. Albany
8:00 PM  SHARP

Hair Police (noise psych rock masters from Louisville)
Bone Parade (Albany’s own makers of “dark soundscapes”)
Twilight of the Century (Troys’ Rise Set Twilight meets Albany’s Century Plants - see what happens!)

British singer-songwriter Jan Bell (of Maybelles fame) is performing with her Brooklyn-based band the Cheap Dates,  Her latest album was produced by Samantha Parton (Be Good Tanyas) with guest vocals by Jolie Holland. Jan won the 2008 People’s Choice Independent Music Awards Alt-Country Album of the year. Old-timey blues and a powerful voice.

Sounds good! Hope to see you all there.

“[Barbash] came of age, artistically, at a time when abstract expressionism was the dominant paradigm. And yet, he and the artists that he trained with at Yale all remained pretty resolutely figural in their art. And that was kind of a bold decision at that time,” says Wieslogel, who is quick to point out similarities in Barbash’s collecting. “We wanted to highlight the counter trend in his own art and his collecting where most of the things that he’s gone on to collect, regardless of the origin or where he met the people — and there’s a lot of different chapters in his life that are represented in the gallery — have been innovative but figural.”

If anything, Barbash’s collection — of artwork and experience — is beyond interesting; it’s expansive and full. But even then, the 75-year-old artist will continue to be enchanted by art and its possibilities.

“Michael gave a talk years ago and the thing I always remember he said was, ‘The really serious thing art does is expand the imagination.’ It sucks you into it in certain ways, usually by doing things that you know you can’t do, or you’re amazed that anybody can do,” says Barbash. “Why are we so taken by pictures, the cultural ethos of which we not only don’t care about, we might not even like? Art is extraordinary because, for a time, it makes you intensely believe in things you know you don’t believe in.”

I hadn’t even the opportunity to park my car before the sound of bagpipes cut its way through the sputtering of my engine. Upon exiting my vehicle, I found that the number of people in kilts very nearly rivaled that of those in plainclothes, though there was no further division beyond the sartorial. Those in tartans and plaids were not regarded as overzealous enthusiasts, and those in shorts and a t-shirt were not considered stodgy killjoys. It was very much a day of community, everyone eager to share Scottish culture, whether it be in the capacity of teacher or student.

Noon had yet to arrive when I realized how hot it was going to be that day — certainly a scorcher. I began to worry about sunburn, scouting the area for a tent or tree. And it was then that I realized something very obvious but very important: most of the people there were of Scottish descent, which meant that most of the people there were very pale. I said a silent prayer on their behalf, for if I, with not an ounce of Scottish blood in my veins, was concerned about the sun, I couldn’t imagine the fear that resided in the hearts of my new Scottish friends.

Joyce Geier, world-class sheep dog trainer, then took to the main field accompanied by four white sheep and three Border Collies and put on an impressive demonstration.

All the while, the sound of bagpipes seemed to float continuously on the all-too-infrequent breeze as judging of solo musicians and pipe bands continued throughout the day.

Perhaps the most impressive musical event, however, was massed bands, which occurred twice: once to mark the beginning of the athletic events and again to bring them to a close. Massed bands is when every single pipe band in attendance gathers on the main field to play in unison. The volume was impressive — rock concert levels with nary a single implement of amplification to be found.

Lunchtime rolled around and I was drawn towards the haggis. Haggis has many ingredients, but the most noteworthy are sheep’s “pluck” (heart, liver, and lungs). Even knowing this, I still wanted some. After struggling to communicate with the thickly accented cashier, I received my sheep parts, along with an imported Scottish cola with which to wash them down.

It was delicious — no lie. You just have to eat; don’t think.

Then the athletics started up, beginning with what I’d been waiting all day to see: the caber toss. For the uninformed, the caber toss is an event in which big strong men attempt to throw a slightly miniaturized telephone pole so that it lands as vertically as possible. Anyone was welcome to give it a shot, and though I surely could have been an admirable contender, I told the big men that I feared my journalistic integrity might be tainted if I became too involved in the situation. They didn’t believe me. Other sports followed, all of them involving throwing something heavy.

As the day came to a close, I sought shelter from the heat in the campground lodge where a handful of bands were playing traditional Celtic music. Cooling off with a beer and an Irish Cream truffle, the music was the perfect accompaniment. If one can be “Scottished-out,” I was just about at that point, and it was a very good feeling. All in all, the day was an impressively complete smorgasbord of Scottish culture, and very well attended for the first one of surely many to come.

Maybe next year I’ll drop some knowledge on these Scots about how to really throw a telephone pole.

>>>The third event of the festival, Salsa, Meet Hip Hop… & Other Dances, will be held on July 22 at the Schwartz Center. Though the Kiplinger Theater is the most traditional setting of the bunch, Self intends it to be an informal evening, featuring a collection of different dance forms grouped together in thought-provoking juxtaposition. The title of the night makes reference to Anita “Rockafella” Garcia’s (member of Pepatian) piece “when I first met hip-hop, when I first met salsa,” about her struggle to find her identity amongst competing dance traditions — the salsa and merengue of her Puerto Rican heritage and the hip-hop of her New York City neighborhood.

Other pieces of the evening include Janie Kovars’ Tai Chi-inspired piece “White Crane,” which will be performed to two different sets of music, and Jane Gabriels’ “What I Saw, I Recognize” set to a Latina poem and which is more “dance-theater.” Phil Kim’s (B-Boy Philcroy) piece, with Djani Johnson and Kelvin Kim, will be in the form of break dancing and b-boying. Jeanne Goddard will combine her dance talents with Steve Stull’s operatic voice in their piece “Those Ducks Aren’t Bobbing for Golf Balls.” The night will finish with a Q & A session with the dancers about their work, their form, and their inspiration.

Self hopes the series will promote dance literacy in the Ithaca community and will encourage people to “make [dance] a part of their lives.” “If you’re not used to reading movement you can only hear what people say” - so come out to view the realm of the unspoken.<<<

Read the rest of Kate’s article here. Jim is a fascinating and valuable addition to Ithaca’s art community, and these free events are not to be missed. After having covered the Love Shoe Fest the first time around, we’re glad to see that they’ve chosen to make the festival an annual affair. Again, the performance tonight begins at 7:30pm a Cornell’s Schwartz Center.

“The Ithaca art scene is about being safe, but to be an artist means to be comfortable with doubt and taking risks,” says local artist Jesse Hill. “I think there’s a lot of young art happening here that is inventive in both materials and concept that is not being given a venue.”

Contentious stuff! The article is a fascinating read, and I encourage everyone to visit the show at Sfumato. The show is up through July, so hurry, hurry. I personally learned a great deal from Wylie’s piece — not to mention the websites that  I didn’t know about before (and now check daily), perpetual art machine, a video art portal, and WOOLOO, an opportunity hub for artists.

Our photographer Rachel also took a great set of photos of both the artists and the works displayed, all of which you can see at our flickr.

Five years ago, in a time of woe for the underground, the country and the world, the members of the Ecstatic Yod Collective organized a tour called More Hair Less Bush. Including a variety of musicians and writers, the tour brought the flame of hope to cities cast into darkness by the hideous secretions of the Bush Twins.

Now, in 2008, as we prepare to enjoy thelong-promised fruits of regime change, we felt it was time to bring our show on the road again. But this time, rather than offering balm and apologies to the psychically wounded, we would like to celebrate the pre-dawn of a new day — a day when the word “cheney” is once more an empty phrase we use to terrify youngsters.

To this end, we have assembled a revolving cast of musicians and writers, all of whom honk the horn of freedom with both hands. We trust it will be a gas.

Trinkets will be available at all shows. Tour schedule and bios follow. Support is being provided by Ecstatic Peace Records & Arthur Magazine.
