Rachael Yamagata - Chesapeake (live stripped-down)

2011-12-30T11:07:00.004-03:00

A collection of live acoustic versions by Rachael Yamagata, solo and with her band mates, performing songs from Chesapeake.
Not all the songs from the album have been played on sessions. I've been waiting for ABC World News to upload a whole video of "Stick Around" as shown on this clip, but they haven't yet...
So instead I added two different versions of "Even If I Don't" and "Dealbreaker", both of them equally brilliant.

Damien Rice Full Band is:
Damien Rice - guitar & vocals
Lisa Hannigan - vocals
Vyvienne Long - cello
Shane Fitzsimons - bass guitar
Tomo - drums, percussion

Notes: Mics in beanie about 12 feet from left stacks. Few technical issues with this performance. PA had an odd buzzing sound at times that was apparently due to a "phone" or at least that's what they must have said over the IEM as Shane kept mouthing/saying it. There was also some static from the PA (at least the left) later on in the evening. As with all full band Damien shows, levels are extreme. Volume has been slightly adjusted but major variations in volume are as they were at the venue. Pedestrian's opening set is also available. Never pay for or sell live recordings. If you have any questions or need more info drop me a line.

Rachael Yamagata - Live in Minneapolis (Nov 11) [flac]

2011-11-20T22:58:00.008-03:00

A little gem of a recording here. Not only the first 2011 Rachael Yamagata gig to surface, but also a fantastic one. Great performance and hilarious banter and interaction with the audience.

My favourite quote of the night:

"I have to be careful in this age. I say too much, I show too much. People come up to me and they tell me the most intimate things and I'm like 'What the f*ck, dude?' and they're like "you blogged about it, bitch'"

Many thanks to Dan a.k.a. MN Gneiss for sharing this recording. Original notes and photos included in the folder.

Best of 2011

2011-11-19T08:17:00.007-03:00

It's that time of the year. Well, almost. So here I am in a totally self-indulgent post as we reach the end of 2011 to summarize my favourite releases of the year and their stand out tracks. Call it a top 5 if you wish.

Laura Marling - A Creature I Don't Know

Known for: Sophia

Best song on the album: Night After Night. Great lyrics and haunting melody with just an acoustic guitar.

Rachael Yamagata - Chesapeake

Known for: Starlight, Even If I Don't

Best song on the album: Dealbreaker is a perfect closer but Stick Around is just pretty damn sexy.

Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds

Known for: The Death of You and Me, If I Had a Gun

Best song on the album: Torn between AKA... Broken Arrow and Stranded on the Wrong Beach. I'm gonna go with the first one.

Lisa Hannigan - Passenger

Tiny Desk Concert sessions

2011-11-02T20:45:00.003-03:00

Let's talk about the Tiny Desk Concert series. I'm awe with them. How can such a simple concept be so wonderful? I suppose it has something to do with the musicians' charm and excellence. I mean, who wouldn't want to be in a small room and have a private showcase with someone like Josh Ritter or James Vincent McMorrow?
There's something amazing about these sessions that capture the best in music. It's simplicity, it's power and above all it's inherent quality, with nothing more than a guitar and a voice. And brilliant songs of course.

Here are a few of my favourites. Just click on the HD button, sit back and enjoy.

Josh Ritter
"The Temptation Of Adam", "Lark", "Rattling Locks" & "Kathleen"

Lisa Hannigan
"Knots", "Little Bird" & "Passenger"

James Vincent McMorrow
"This Old Dark Machine", "Sparrow And The Wolf", "Follow You Down To The Red Oak Tree" & "Red Dust"

The Civil Wars
"Barton Hollow", "Twenty Years" & "Poison & Wine"

Album Review: Rachael Yamagata "Chesapeake"

2011-10-05T19:31:00.004-03:00

Wish I could write a proper review but I'm not a journalist, just extremely passionate about music.
I'm only going to state this is truly a brilliant album. Long awaited for me ever since I started listening to this fantastic and versatile artist after "Elephants... Teeth Sinking into Heart".

Rachael said she wanted to make more light-hearted music, but she would keep the dark ballads as well. And "Chesapeake" has a nice balance of both.
Fast paced "Even if I Don’t" and "Starlight" kick it off, leading to the gorgeous song "Sunday Afternoon", which really makes you want to take a walk outside under the spring sun.

However, the best tracks are definitely the piano ballads, the ones that go closer to her sound, that rasping husky voice, with heartwrenching lyrics.

Because, as harsh as it sounds, and quoting Janis Joplin, "Audiences like their blues singers to be miserable." She's an artist that's able to pour her soul into music and you can feel it. With "You Won't Let Me", "Miles on a Car" and "Full On" she does exactly that.

Stick Around is a jazzy delight with a fantastic bass line. And definitely one of my favourites. The biographical "The Way it Seems to Go" has a great Fiona Apple-esque sound, a combination of great lyrics and catchy music that makes you hit the repeat button over and over. "I Don't Want to be Your Mother" was a huge surprise, after that title you would expect something completely different than a piano and strings melody.

And the epic Dealbreaker brings a perfect closure to this album. A poignant, touching ballad that is just that... epic.

Song Premiere: Rachael Yamagata "The Way It Seems To Go"

2011-09-27T20:11:00.005-03:00

From http://www.americansongwriter.com/

We’re proud to bring you the premiere one of our favorite tracks from Chesapeake, the lyrically inventive “The Way It Seems To Go.” Take a listen, and read our interview with Yamagata on her new album below.

Note: embedding doesn't seem to work. Listen online here: http://soundcloud.com/brian-28-2/rachael-yamagata-the-way-it/s-WvCg7

Tell us a a bit about writing "The Way It Seems To Go."

I wanted something with a little bit of a sense of humor about it. I remember talking to my previous A&R guy at Warner Bros. He just kept saying, “you’re such a light-hearted person, you’re funny on stage, you have this other side of you that you don’t really show, or haven’t shown yet in your records about your personality. He encouraged me to explore that a little bit in song. So that song was me trying to plug into my basic personality and be very realistic about my goofy nature, and it’s very autobiographical. Lyrically, it’s true to form to how my life just seems to develop. It made it sort of a fun, musical setting for it because it’s got that nature to the lyric.
