Sumie Nagano (SE) - Show Talked Windows

"Son" by Distance, Light & Sky taken from the new album "Casting Nets" coming 11/21/2014 at Glitterhouse: http://tinyurl.com/mwgw5ey

Distance, Light and Sky are: Chris Eckman (The Walkabouts, Dirtmusic), Chantal Acda (Isbells, Sleepingdog) and Eric Thielemans (EARR ensemble).

"Distance, Light & Sky" - Not the title of a post new-age novel, nor the christmas wishes of some purple haired granny after a wizardly seasoned apple cake, nope. Chantal, Chris and Eric (we might as well get familiar right away) are happily lost together in this surrealistic menage a trois. Picture a carpet in some West-African nomad's tent or no, even better imagine that we see our 3 heroes picturing themselves on that imaginary carpet sharing stories, songs, visions and dance (one can always dream). To celebrate the moment and all those many moments and heroes before and after who are and were and will be there to celebrate many more moments and this we hope ad infinitum. Yes dear reader (are you still there?) - this is serious business! Therefore we must keep things light.

In a world on fire our 3 heroes decided to step down and become Distance, Light and Sky. Coming together through a desire to build and share an imaginative space for their songs and sounds, where there is a place to connect to a world family of storytellers, singers, griots, shamans, preachers, fools and players a space where time is never only now but past and future together in that now from that space now they are happy to present Casting Nets. Their first album. Recorded at Sono Studios near Prague during the spring of 2014, together with the kindred spirit and good soul Phill Brown behind the studio cockpit, this album came about like a spring breeze. Effortless (well, except for too many weird Czech greek salads and Schnitzels), graceful, as a result of a gentle sharing mood and generous spirits.

Release Date : 23rd February 2015

Grasscut, the duo of Andrew Phillips and Marcus O’Dair, return in February with a new single, Curlews/September Night’s Sky – the first single from the band’s forthcoming third album, Everyone Was A Bird, to be released by Lo Recordings in May 2015. 

Whilst first performed in collaboration with the Kronos Quartet to over 4,000 people in a warehouse in Poland, Curlews origins lie much closer to home. It’s meditative piano intro, soaring strings and sense of open skies and distant horizons inspired by the British coastline. “I’d started it on the train from Birmingham to Wales,” say Phillips, “and as I reworked it later for the album the music, especially the piano and string rhythms, kept pulling me back back to the Mawddach Estuary. I kept stripping layers and layers away, till eventually the melody, mood, and words were exposed – like they'd always been there.”

“The poet Harriet Tarlo cautions against the lazy use of ornithological metaphors for human emotion, but watching the curlews on the estuary, I really thought: this is me, digging around in the mud till I find it. I hope that's not lazy.”

That sense of place and belonging resonates throughout much of Grasscut’s work, and the forthcoming album features liner notes from the renowned landscape writer Robert Macfarlane. 

Alongside Curlews comes September's Night Sky, a story of a spring equinox in the Southern Hemisphere. Scored by fragmented keyboards, guitars and sweeping strings it brings to mind the sense of both majesty and fragility that a starry night can inspire.

"„It took them seven years to complete their new album, but as „From Shores Of Sleep“  turned out as such a revelation of beauty, the waiting was well worth. With a cast of fine musicians, Sean Ogilvie and Micah Rabwin have crafted out an album full of timeless music, appreciative and melancholic, saturated with aery folk-pop melodies and of infinite elegance…..an invitation for a journey through a musical novel in ten chapters, on the edge between dream and reality, touched by glistening moments of psychedelia." - Rolling Stone (FR)

Clogs are a mostly instrumental project led by Bryce Dessner and Australia's Padma Newsome, both men familiar from their membership in the acclaimed rock band, The National. But don't call Clogs a side project. Their existence predates The National, and Clogs have released five widely acclaimed albums -- a highly melodic debut THOM'S NIGHT OUT (2001), then the experimental polyphonies of LULLABY FOR SUE (2003), the minimalist explorations of STICK MUSIC (2004), the post-classical beauty of LANTERN (2006) and finally THE CREATURES IN THE GARDEN OF LADY WALTON (2010), a progressive song-cycle featuring performances by Sufjan Stevens, Matt Berninger of The National &amp; Shara Worden of My Brightest Diamond.

Since the first edition was held in 1999 (in an airplane hangar), Iceland Airwaves has become one of the premier annual showcases for new music – Icelandic and otherwise – in the world. It's made a heap of friends and won many fans along the way, and been lavished with praise pretty much everywhere they write about music. Example: Rolling Stone magazine called it "The hippest long weekend on the annual music-festival calendar."

Some of the world's most exciting artists have performed there, too. The Shins, The Rapture, TV On The Radio, Florence and the Machine, Klaxons, Hot Chip, Flaming Lips, Wolf Parade, Bloc Party and Fatboy Slim have made the short hop from Europe or North America to share the stages with Iceland's finest talents, including bands such as Sigur Rós, FM Belfast, GusGus, múm, Singapore Sling and Dr Spock, to name but a few. And when the live bands have done their thing, top DJs from all over the world spin across the city until the crack of dawn.

But there's more to Airwaves than music. Reykjavík is quite possibly the perfect festival city – small enough to be welcoming, sophisticated enough to offer cultural, historical and nightlife diversions to rival cities ten times its size. Maybe twenty. Who knows? And it's surrounded by some of the most unique and astonishing natural beauty you're ever likely to see (this is a grand statement, but you should just see it).

Roll out of bed, hose the party remains out of your hair and hop on a bus. Before you can remember what you did the night before, you're looking at geysers, waterfalls, lava fields – all the best that a volcanic island has to offer, including the world-famous Blue Lagoon, favorite soaking spot of the international hung-over glitterati. Mmm! You can really taste the hipster!
