Based in Brooklyn, but raised in Louisville, singer-songwriter Dawn Landes has been writing songs for most of her life, and already has more than a decade of experience as a professional producer and engineer. After leaving NYU where she studied psychology and literature, Landes began honing her production and engineering skills, working at Stratosphere Sound (owned by James Iha, Adam Schlesinger, and Andy Chase), and at Philip Glass' personal recording studio, before launching Saltlands Studio in Brooklyn with partners Steve Salett and Gary Maurer.

Her new album Bluebird was produced in collaboration with good friend Thomas Bartlett (known for his work with The National, Sharon Van Etten, Rufus Wainwright, Antony and the Johnsons, and many others), and features contributions from Tony Scherr, Rob Moose, and Norah Jones.

Press coverage of Bluebird will understandably present this album as Dawn's answer to her ex's "divorce record". However, like any great songwriter, she's abstracting her personal narratives enough to leave them open to interpretation and a larger meaning. Bartlett's spartan production keeps the vibe intimate, making it easy to connect with these naked and honest songs which manage to rise above the context in which they were written. In the end, the fact that Bluebird is Landes' way of processing the overwhelming emotions she dealt with after her divorce doesn't matter – there are two sides to every story, and this is hers.

~ Lyrics: 

remember when two strangers changed time?
under the milky way, under starry skies
she sat next to him laughing, he asked how could you tell?
dropped two coins inside the wishing well

he said, “ancient texts are like puzzles to you and me
but ours is understanding, about the earth and gravity
galileo please whisper, sweet nothings in my ear
Is this a phase or is venus really here?”

black hole angels, the arrow guides the tune
north star lingers, on the 2nd magnitude
big dipper is listening, decipher the code
"now kiss me, so I can feel your soul”

he’d be running from shadows with time to think
jumbling up stars, into patterns extinct
be hailing the rain, from a different time
and in the dust, they will find

black hole angels, the arrow guides the tune
north star lingers on the 2nd magnitude
big dipper is listening, decipher the code
“now kiss me, so i can feel your soul”

ursa, sing them a lullaby
about flowers in full bloom
they’ll drink from your ladle, however you need them to

he said “This day has longed, for a second chance
to blast off in the stars, and see you again
big bears to the witness, and let it be said today
this missing you has gone to my head
I drop down on my knees, kiss the ground instead
and when I came to my senses, I found myself in a strange place
close your eyes and rest your head”

VSQ Performs New Order's "Bizarre Love Triangle"

Los Angeles, California serves as home base for the concept group called Vitamin String Quartet. The group is made up of studio musicians who are brought together to interpret and record orchestra style covers of music from all types of genres ranging metal, techno, country, pop, rock and hip-hop dance music. While the quartet uses a wide assortment of artists and instruments, one fairly constant member of the group is violinist Tom Tally. Tally has been intimately involved in the composing, arranging and conduction of many songs on approximately 50 of the albums that have been recorded by the group. While the group is referred to as a string quartet, the reality is that more individuals are usually involved, using instruments such as violins, cellos, percussion, brass and woodwinds. The group was originally brought together in 1999 as an experimental project. They wanted to determine the effects of using classical style instruments to create new and different sounds on popular recordings. Early on, the FM broadcast station WWHK in Concord, NH would play the group's music 24 hours a day, every day, for a period of time. The popularity of the group's music has led to the music being featured on TV and in the movies. Credits include So You Think You Can Dance (2008), TV show The Vampire Diaries (2010), the 100th episode of Gossip Girl and the fifth season finale of Modern Family (2014). Throughout the years, the group has been involved in the recording of over 200 different albums. In 2009, the group stepped out of the box a bit and recorded some original material provided by some of the various musicians on the album Per_Versions.
