Buffalo Gospel- Secret Garden Show, September 4, 2015

photo by Will Piper

House shows are popping up more and more these days in the music scene, with fans gathering to see artists perform in the most intimate spaces- fans' homes.  Good friends Aaron and Laurie hosted a dandy of a show last night in their beautiful home in Riverwest.  Using a garage for a stage and a magnificent garden as a backdrop, Buffalo Gospel performed two sets of memorable music, creating an aural aesthetic experience, mesmorizing everyone in attendance.

Buffalo Gospel epitomizes the spirit of Americana music, and from a sonic perspective can hold their own with any act in their genre- locally, regionally or nationally. At the heart of Buffalo Gospel is songwriter Ryan Necci's engaging stories of self-reflection.  Necci's songs are sometimes brooding, sometimes hopeful, and always draw on both the narrative of the song and the negative space that Necci allows the audience to fill in,  The band, which featured Christopher Porterfield, another one of my favorite songwriters, guesting on guitar helped bring Necci's lyrics to life.   Heidi Spencer's haunting back-up vocals coupled with the mandolin licks from Ryan Ogburn (also of Chicken Wire Empire) stood out in this tightly knit band. 

Buffalo Gospel doesn't play a ton of shows, so catching the sextet live is a real treat.  Music is their passion and performing in front of friends and music enthusiasts seems to give them great pride.  Their new tunes were well-crafted and were received as warmly as their more well known numbers like "Letters to Georgia," "The Western" and "Hoarse as a Crow."  "Ain't No Garden in the Grave," which the band debuted had a special poignant vibe given the unique venue Buffalo Gospel was playing in.   Buffalo Gospel are a true treasure in Milwaukee, a band I am proud to call one of my local favorites, and some of the most earnest, humble folks you'll meet.  To quote Necci addressing the crowd, "City music scenes are made with shows like these, thanks for being here." .

The music and ambiance of the Secret Garden Show will make last night's experience a summer highlight, and one I won't forget.

Nikki Lane- The Cactus Club August 13, 2015

Lane and Whitman,

Is there ever too much of a good thing?  Apparently not, when it comes to Kopp's Frozen Custard or Nikki Lane in Milwaukee.  One could argue that she might do well to rent an apartment in River West, as Lane has brought her country troubadour show to Milwaukee four times this year- although this was her second headlining performance (the other two stops saw her open for Jenny Lewis this spring and Social Distortion this summer).

Lane has experienced a large and steady growth in her fan base due to her constant touring, support slots with a variety of different bands and different genres, and her consistently outstanding performances.  With steady band mates Eric Whitman (bass), Ben Eyestone (drums) and Alex Muñoz (guitar), Lane provided her fans with a diverse set of country tinged rock once again.  While Lane certainly is the focus, the fact that she allows her bandmates to show off their skills is a real draw to the act.  Bassist, Eric Whitman is about as good as anyone in the business, and keeps a steady groove for a band that often runs without a setlist.  Likewise Muñoz's licks on guitar are impressive and add a lot of dimension to Lane's songwriting.  Simply put, you won't hear a Nikki Lane song performed exactly the same twice, and this is a key reason fans, myself included, keep coming back.  

Munoz, Lane and Lee on "You Ain't Going Nowhere."

With the show announced literally days before, and no advertising aside from social media and word of mouth, it was amazing to see a near capacity crowd at the Cactus Club on a Thursday.  Local country-influenced singer-songwriter, Frankie Lee opened the show.  Lee, backed by Whitman, Eyestone and Muñoz proved to be quite a hit.  During Lane's set she invited Lee to join her on stage and take the duet spot normally reserved for Hugh Robert Masterson on "Love's on Fire."  Lee also joined the band on a rousing cover of the Byrds "You Ain't Going Nowhere."  Lee is another example of Lane surrounding herself with top quality musicians.  Simply put, based on Lane's shows, if she was to play tonight, I'd gladly pay $10 to see her and her band once again.  

Appleton Mile of Music- August 8, 2015

Appleton's third annual Mile of Music festival featured over 200 bands performing over 800 shows over a four day period in downtown Appleton, in what is dubbed a "hand crafted, artisan festival."  Early estimations, as of Monday, August 10th, project that over 50,000 people descended onto Appleton for the festival-- a record attendance!  There was literally music everywhere from bands performing on the city buses, to acts packing local establishments for indoor and outdoor shows, and even playing shows in alleys and surrounding parks.  Musicians from Lawrence University, a local liberal arts college, provided clinics on music education as well, a standard that separates Mile of Music from many other festivals.

Attending the event for the first time, it was clear from the start that the city of Appleton takes great pride in hosting bands from around the country and welcoming visitors from near and far.  First off, everything was either free, or very reasonably priced. Parking in the ramp lot closest the the "main drag" cost all of $2 for instance.  One bar, the Fox River House even had the #AppletonPartyGorilla manning the Patti-O! The sentiment of community was palpable from the servers in the establishments, to volunteers scattered throughout the Mile of Music, to even the civic leaders of Appleton attending Cory Chisel's set.  Appleton built what is essentially becoming a Midwest South-by-Southwest festival to showcase up-and-coming artists, and fans are coming by the droves to take part in the event.

Downtown Appleton was hopping on Saturday, and the eclectic music fans of all ages got a chance to see a myriad of different performances throughout the day.  With so many acts to choose from, it was hard deciding what to see and when.  Below is a recap of my day at Mile of Music. 

1:40 p.m.- The Ghost Wolves: 

Hailing from Austin, Texas, this two piece band featured drummer (Jonny Wolf) and guitarist (Carley Wolf).  As with other notable duos with similar instrumentation (The Black Keys and White Stripes) I am often amazed with how much sound two people can produce.  With ruckus raw energy, which featured Carley frequently jumping into the packed area around the stage for their early afternoon set at Emmett's Bar, and a sound that is a mixture of punk, garage rock and Americana, the Ghost Wolves set the bar high for day, and were one of my favorite acts of the day.

2:50 p.m.- Cory Chisel & The Wandering Sons

Current Nashville resident and Appleton native, Cory Chisel, certainly received a hero's greeting at Jones Park.  Chisel is the driving force behind the Mile of Music event, and Appleton's favorite son drew the largest crowd of the day, filling Jones Park to the max.  Appleton's Mayor Timothy Hanna even introduced and thanked Chisel for his contributions to the city. Chisel focused his afternoon set on his more well-known material and the park eagerly sang along with Cory and the Wandering Sons.

4:20 p.m. Fort Frances
Performing for the third straight year as part of Mile of Music, Chicago's Fort Frances has developed quite the following in Appleton, filling the Fox River House Patti-O to capacity.  Playing a high-energy, upbeat and enthusiastic set,  Fort Frances's performance featured a lot of their most recent songs which showcases the evolution of the band as they continue to cultivate their craft.

5:40 p.m.- Stone Cold Fox
The Brooklyn, New York indie rock quintet proved to be perhaps the biggest surprise of the day-- literally.  Knowing nothing about the band, my friend and I went to The Bar to take a load off, since we'd been standing the majority of the day, and stumbled on a great indie rock outfit.  With a sound that fits somewhere in the realm of The Shins and Built to Spill, Stone Cold Fox exudes energy and a joy for playing music.  Their spacier soundscapes and jams were a welcome treat.

6:50 p.m.- Water Liars
As I wrote about recently, Water Liars are, in my opinion, the best band you've never heard of.  Playing at Jones Park, Water Liars delivered an even more riveting performance than they did two nights prior at the Cactus Club.  The trio gave the audience, which was heavily populated by musicians from other bands, as you could tell by their black performer badges, a full-throttle performance, even going over their allotted time for an encore.

8:20 p.m.- Patrick Sweany
A self-proclaimed musical omnivore, Patrick Sweany delivered a great set that highlighted blues, soul and good ol' rock 'n roll.  A prolific axe man, Sweany's blues style and staccato riffs allowed him to jump genres, showcasing his skills.  No wonder he's had gigs opening for The Black Keys (which feature his longtime friend, Dan Auerbach) and The Tedeski Trucks Band.

Water Liars, Twin Brother, Christopher Porterfield- The Cactus Club, August 6, 2015

photo by Will Piper

The Cactus Club welcomed a triple bill of indie folk/rock goodness with Christopher Porterfield, Twin Brother and Water Liars, providing what would be the best $8 I've spent all summer.  These acts, while not household names for most, provided one of the best evenings of music I can remember- with each act delivering a passionate set and showcasing their unique songwriting skills.

The evening kicked off with Porterfield, performing a set of Field Report songs along with Barry Clark on upright bass.  Solo, Porterfield's songs are performed with equal, if not more intensity, than when he's backed by the full Field Report band.  Armed with an arsenal of effects pedals, Porterfield and Clark were able to expand some of the beautiful sonic nuances found on Field Report's brilliant 2014 release, Marigolden.  In the same vane as master songwriters, Jason Isbell and Jeff Tweedy, Porterfield crafts his narratives and characters in a way that the songs resonate in different ways when heard again and again.  The set highlight was a stripped down version of "Fergus Falls" with Clark delivering some exceptional licks on the upright bass.

Up next was Twin Brother, the eclectic five piece rock outfit fronted by Sean Raasch. Twin Brother's current incarnation features Raasch on guitar and vocals, along with a drummer, bass player, keyboardist and trumpet player. The addition of the keys and trumpet provided a rich sonic fullness to Twin Brother's music. Raasch's brooding tales and moody soundscapes came across dynamically. Much of the material of the night came from last year's excellent Swallow the Anchor release.   This is a band that continues to improve and refine its craft, and gets better every time I see them.  Musically, their darker sound provided a perfect support act for the evening's headliner,

Headlining the bill was Water Liars, a trio from Water Valley, Mississippi.  Water Liars are perhaps best described as, "the best band that you've never heard of."  They are an act that your music-inclined friends hip you to (thank you Aaron Schliecher and Stephen Bloch), and then you end up loving and sharing with others.  The crowd had thinned considerably when Water Liars took the stage slightly before midnight, but the folks who stuck around were in for a real treat.

Water Liars' music is a modern personification of the Southern Gothic style, equal parts reflective, dark, passionate and brooding-- all in way that works seamlessly.  The band delivered big time, with a roaring set of tunes highlighting many tracks off the group's stellar 2014 self-titled Water Liars release.  Water Liars are a truly unique band who can deliver ruckus guitar licks one minute and then slow things down into soaring sweet vocal harmonies the next, all within the same song.  Water Liars are true troubadours of the road, who are constantly touring, and frequent Wisconsin especially for a band hailing from close to 1,000 miles away.  Closing their set, Water Liars played two brand new tunes which were exceptional and showcased the continual evolution of this outstanding act.

Judah and the Lion with Jay Matthes, Cedarburg Summer Sounds, July 24,2015

photo by Will Piper

The news around town this week focused on the Milwaukee Lion, an elusive beast that was reported as being seen in the north side of the city by several residents.  While the infamous #mkelion was no where to be found in Ozaukee County last evening, a lion of a different nature turned up at picturesque Cedar Creek Park in the form of Americana rockers from Nashville, Judah and the Lion.  They were a "mane" attraction for festival goers to say the least.

Keeping with their theme of booking up-and-coming national acts, the park was packed to hear jams from this talented group of musicians, fronted by Judah Akers on lead guitar and vocals, Brain Macdonald on mandolin and vocals and Nate Zuercher on banjo and vocals.  The two words that come to mind when describing Judah and the Lion are "high-energy."  Whether playing their own original tunes or an eclectic array of covers, the passion and enthusiasm was easily seen and heard on each track from the band.

Judah and the Lion's original work from their 2014 debut release Kids These Days, played best and showcased the individual and collective prowess of the musicians.  Tracks like the foot stomping, "Kickin' de Leaves," and "Hold On" were highlights.  Some of the crowd was very familiar with Judah and the Lion, and requested some of their earlier Christian rock numbers, which in many ways were show stand outs in terms of capturing the raw energy and passion of this act.

Opening for Judah and the Lion was Wauwatosa native Jay Matthes who I had the pleasure of interviewing recently for Ozaukee Magazine.  Like the headliner, Matthes drew from a combination of original tunes and diverse covers.  His rendition of Michael Jackson's infectious "Billy Jean," was well received as was original song, "Eleven Eleven," his set closer, the upbeat "What Pretty Girls Do" off of his debut record, A Drier Place released last year.

On a hot and steamy summer's evening, it was clear from the sweaty condition the performers were in at the end of their sets that Jay Matthes and Judah and the Lion did their best to bring the heat to Summer Sounds.

Eaux Claires Music Festival- Eau Claire, Wisconsin July 17-18

In the final scene in Cameron Crowe's exceptional 2000 film, Almost Famous, the teen-aged character William Miller asks musician friend Russel Hammond the simple yet complicated question, "So Russel, what do you love about music," to which he replies, "To start with... everything."  This sentiment expressed by Russel was echoed by me over the weekend after attending my first multi-day destination music festival, Eaux Claires.

Credit the moonshot thinking of Eau Claire's favorite son, Justin Vernon and his friend Aaron Dessner, of The National. who curated an innovative festival in rural Wisconsin drawing over 22,000 people to enjoy music, art, companionship and camaraderie. The festival served as a mecca for bands and fans of bands in the upper Midwestern indie music scene.  This was a unique experience where acts that I've seen normally play for a thousand people or less garnered HUGE crowds, where musicians eagerly collaborated with each other to make one-of-a-kind performances, and where the fans were treated to wonderful artists performing with the utmost passion and energy.  To quote fellow festival attendee and friend, Kevin Gonring, "Eaux Claires was about pure reverence... for nature, music and friendship.  It felt like something that was distinctly and seemingly mystically all connected, from the design to the guest features, it felt like you were part of something rather than just observing it."

As a rookie festival goer, I realized one thing very quickly... there was no physical way to "see it all." Factor in sweltering heat and humid conditions and the sheer logistics of the festival, and I quickly had come to the conclusion that I needed to live in the moment of what I was seeing and experiencing, and not worry about what I wasn't.

For starters what I was experiencing was some of my favorite current artists performing sets of music in a pristine location, amidst the natural beauty of Chippewa River flowing as a literal backdrop behind the artists, and the ethereal topography of the famous "North Woods" of Wisconsin all around us.  This setting served as a primary point that connected the festival goers and artists. Within the confines of this scenic place overlooking a flowing river, we were treated to two days of amazing music, friendship and fun.

Friday's musical experiences:  Rocking Out in the Heat
Hiss Golden Messenger:  The Durham, North Carolina based Americana outfit provided great southern rock influenced jams and country tinged melodies to kick off the festival.

Field Report:  Christopher Porterfield kicked the intensity of his band's performance up to eleven with a soulfully uplifting set of music anchored by a marquee rendition of "I'm Not Waiting Anymore."

Sturgill Simpson:  The spirit of Duane Allman traveled across the Chippewa River and into the guitar licks of Laur Joamets, who anchored Simpson's traditional country set with jaw-dropping slide guitar work.  Simpson's passion and tales, coupled with his band's tight-knit sound made his set a festival favorite of mine, especially the later part of the set where Simpson flowed songs and jams into one another and incorporated a great deal of bluegrass.  Simply put, Stugill brought the country heat on a squelching warm day.

The Staves: The lush music and perfectly pitched harmonies of this group of British sisters soared in the Staves' late afternoon set.

Doomtree:  Minneapolis hip-hop super-group had the audience bouncing from the moment the crew took the stage.  Special credit goes to Dessa whose back up vocals on most tracks and stage swagger stole the show.

Spoon:  I can't top Justin Vernon's simple, yet spot on words in the Eaux Claires Field Journal for describing Spoon. "Category: American rock band.  Category closed."

Tallest Man on Earth: Kristian Matsson backed by a full band, including the No BS! Brass Band, and a great fiddle player had the honor of playing while the sun was going down, creating a stunning back drop for the indie folk musician's tunes.  The Tallest Man delivered one of the best sets of the fest, with rich sonic timbres and arrangements of his new and older material.

The National:  This was my festival highlight.  Backed with one of the best visual displays I've ever seen at any concert, the National played an hour and forty minute set, with an encore.  Their songs were rich and powerful, and backed often by the No BS! Brass Band.  Moreover, covering the traditional Americana song, "Peggy O," (often played by the Grateful Dead) and being joined on stage by Sufjan Stevens and Justin Vernon for several numbers, made their headlining performance extra special.

Saturday's Musical Experiences:  All About Surprises
Forever Love: Trees and Longing
Icelandic performance artist Ragnar Kjartansson featured the Dessner twins from The National and Gyoa and Kristin Anna Valtysdottir, formerly of the Icelandic band mum, dressed in turn of the century county fair attire, performing a series of songs that quoted poets such as Sylvia Plath, Bas Jan Ader and e.e. cummings.  A personal highlight was talking later in the day with the extremely humble Kjartansson about the project and how he and the other artists put it together two weeks ago especially for this particular space.  It was a song for a summer's day indeed.

Elliot Moss: This was the surprise show of the fest for me.  Mixing together elements of electronic music and rock, and segueing in and out of trippy, hypnotic jams, Moss engaged the crowd with music that is best described by my friend and fellow festival attendee, Brad Dunning, as "tight, intense, passionate and mature."  I was blown away by this band!

S.Carey featuring the UW-Eau Claire Jazz Band: Having seen S.Carey perform within the intimate confines of the Cedarburg Cultural Center this winter, I was curious to see how he would do in a festival setting.  Backed with the UW- Eau Claire Jazz Band, his arrangements soared into one of the best surprises of the festival.

Charles Bradley:  The festival's oldest performer, 66 year old Charles Bradley delivered sultry seductive grooves (again to quote my friend, Brad Dunning) as the "Screaming Eagle of Soul" kicked off his late afternoon performance.

Phox: The Dells Stage tent was packed for the Baraboo indie-folk outfit with singer Monica Martin seeming genuinely overwhelmed by the support of the fans in attendance and the large crowd.  Hearing the intricate inter-working of Martin's voice amid the acoustic guitars and banjo overlooking the forests around the stage was a show highlight.

Sylvan Esso: This is a concert experience I will never forget... a sweaty tent packed shoulder to shoulder with people of all ages bumping, bouncing and swaying during the electronic indie pop duo of Amelia Meath and Nick Sanborn's set. The band played their debut record along with new tunes in what was a festival show-stealing performance

Sufjan Stevens: With the sun setting, Stevens delivered a rare festival performance, focusing on interweaving tunes from his critically acclaimed Carrie and Lowell record along with other tracks from his rich catalog.  Highlights included the reflective "Casmir Pulaski Day," "Fourth of July" which featured Bryce Dessner of The National, and "Chicago," which featured The No BS! Brass Band adding an extra layer of bright timbres to make the song really take off.

Bon Iver: Before Bon Iver took the stage for their headlining set Saturday night, author and festival emcee, Michael Perry addressed the 22,000+ festival attendees gathered around the main stage for the event's final act-- organizer Justin Vernon's most well-known project, "Bon Iver."  Perry's words pretty much encapsulate the spirit an sentiment of the two-day event.  

To quote Mr. Perry, "We’re pretty much an unbeautiful bunch, man. We are flat-footed clodhoppers who feel inside like maybe we could dance, and we don’t really know any other way than to just get at it and have at it. And we know it wouldn’t happen without our neighbors, without those who raised us, without this Chippewa Valley, and without you. If you hold yourself still and silent now, you can feel that river behind you. Runnin’ through the night. Runnin’ through all time.It’s good to have music near a river. There’s this idea of baptism. Of absolution. No matter what you believe. Better yet, it’s good to have music near a place where two rivers come together. A confluence. For what are we but a confluence—a confluence that lives and breathes, a confluence of dream and song, a confluence of 22,000 beating hearts.And so here we are, cradled by a river in a sanctuary of sound.

This was Justin Vernon's fest and naturally his most well-known band reunited and were joined on stage with special guests throughout the set which opened with a chilling version of "Heavenly Father."  "Towers's" lush soundscapes played well into the scenic beauty of Foster Farms.  Two new tunes were debuted along with a goose-bump generating version of "Perth," which featured the Staves on vocals along with the No BS! Brass Band, whom Vernon called, "the festival's MVPs" during his Bon Iver set.

The musical performances, and sense of community that took place at Eaux Claires was second-to-none and only made the attendees start anticipating next year's festival.

Fort Frances- Bastille Days, Milwaukee, WI 7/11/15

photo by Will Piper

While winters in Milwaukee are rough, summers are a myriad of good times.  As "The City of Festivals," Milwaukee offers up Bastille Days-- a four day celebration of French and Creole culture in the streets of downtown Milwaukee.  This festival starts with a 5k "Storm the Bastille" run on Thursday night and carries on throughout the weekend with unique food and beverage stations, Fraco-art booths, local and regional vendors, and lots of family fun.  Did I mention that there is a lot of music too?

Enter amid all of this, and the backdrop of a large inflatable Eifel Tower, Fort Frances, a band from Chicago that that has little to nothing to do with Franco-American culture, but a lot to do with fun. For the second consecutive year, Fort Frances was a featured Bastille Days artist, this year moving up to the big stage in Cathedral Square Park.  The band delivered a 90 minute set which spanned the history of their material.  This was by far the largest crowd I've seen Fort Frances play for... I've seen them play to as little as a handful of people at last year's rain-soaked Bastille Days set, to perhaps about 75 people at an earlier Club Garabaldi show.  This time, conservatively speaking, there were 150 people seated in the bleachers, plus the group that was listening and having kids play on the jungle-gym and explore the cultural booths in the back of the park.

This past May, Fort Frances released its third E.P. No One Needs To Know Our Name.  This album  was recorded in fall of 2014 in Maine with producer Sam Kassirer (who has worked with national acts such as Lake Street Dive and Josh Ritter).  The songs off of No One Needs To Know Our Name feature a fuller sound and increased instrumentation when compared to Fort Frances's earlier material.  Simply put, the band continues to evolve, and for the better.  This summer, the Chicago trio has been performing more with additional members, including keyboardist/guitarist Jason Ryan who sat in with the band at Bastille Days.  Ryan's presence not only helped transform the newer songs live, but also provided richer and more complex timbres to the band's earlier material.  Drummer Aaron Kiser continues to hone his skills and establish himself as a driving force behind the band. The one-two-punch of bassist Jeff Piper and singer/guitarist David McMillan tie everything together.  McMillan's affable nature and humility on and off the stage makes the act an especially approachable and fun one.

It is clear at that these guys enjoy playing music together and can have fun in any setting.  Some fun take-away memories from this performance included the jam during "Up on Cripple Creek" (a cover from The Band) causing many of the folks in the front row to dance, an overzealous Fort Frances fan asking David to play Earth Wind and Fire towards the end of the show, and the general exuberance and confidence that the band displayed with its most recent material.  For fans traveling to Appleton for Mile of Music in a couple of weeks, Fort Frances is an act you don't want to miss.
