Incorporeal Soundscapes: Stockhauz-Zen Live on WMNF (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In a world somewhere between the planets of shoe-gaze and surf-rock lives a band called Stockhauz-Zen, who joined us on the Live Music Showcase last week. Far from Dick Dale and the Del Tones, their name actually comes from the father of electronic music, Carl-Heinz Stockhauzen, and they stated the naming is “a nod to the avante garde spirit of mid 20th century”. The lush reverbs from the guitarist’s pedalboard allude to this spirit, in a new and refined way. The music makes you feel incorporeal
Passerine: Hearts on Sleeves, Strings on Fire (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I swear, folk musicians wear their heart on their sleeve. And sometimes their other garments. Opening with a song filled with passion about the demolition derby, Passerine is a band that you’d classify as something like folk music, under the broader Americana category. Their song “Crash Burn Love” is an embodiment of just how powerful folk music can be. The song feels like high school during your first relationship, as you stumble into adulthood: colliding, breaking up, the finding of love ever
Squier Strat & Vintage Vibe: Will Johns Live in the Studio (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Will Johns, a recognized member of the Chicago Blues Hall of Fame, joined us on the WMNF Live Music Showcase this last Friday. Giving us a taste of the blues which he was raised on, Johns’ sound of blues rock is really down the middle and is the perfect amalgamation of the two genres. His arpeggios are masterful and powerful, a tribute to his guitar teacher and uncle, who you might know for the very same. His guitar sounds at times impressing even me as an engineer. His history as a musician ext
Childlike Wonder meets 1930s Swing: Dean Johanesen Live on WMNF (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Dean Johanesen, solo artist, is a blast from the past. A modern day guitar-slinger, he’s right up our alley here at WMNF. His music features notes of Jazz, Americana, and soulful singing. It seems his work has shaped him. A preschool music teacher, he and his music have a happy-go-lucky, carefree energy at times. You can hear the great impact it’s made when he say “I hope you never lose the child within the man”. This childlike joy he has is riveting, in another song discussing how we should all
All Hail the Algorithm: Selwyn Birchwood Modernizes the Blues at WMNF (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Long time friend of the station, multiple time performer on the Live Music Showcase, Selwyn Birchwood is welcomed back to WMNF. Starting off with a song citing “the church of swamp funk and blues” is surprisingly accurate, you can hear the influence of gospel and also the influence of electric blues. A voice that reminds me vaguely of Lenny Kravitz, a guitar sound that reminds me of Stevie Ray Vaughan, Birchwood’s playing is powerful and stoic, lyrics discussing the issues our society endures to
