For me Ana Lola has been an enigma since she first appeared on myspace more than a year ago. I was originally drawn to her left of center approach to song writing and abstract lyrical style. Live, Ana Lola plays as a three piece. Her piano and vocals take the lead to a laid back rhythm section. This evening Ana sat at her piano and sang but the set still had theatrical feel to it. She defies comparison as a song writer but the songs are so unexpected, original, and have such a genuine quality that it is nearly impossible to look away while she is performing. You can find Ana Lola Roman's records on the Family Business which is a testament to her originality. http://www.myspace.com/analolaroman
Ok guys... so I am implementing a system to identify bands based on our interaction with them the night of the show. If you or anyone you know is offended by this... well... we don't care. The rating system is as follows: GGGB - good guys good band GGBB - good guys bad band BGBB - bad guys bad band BGGG - bad guys good band
I am Nick. I travel with a bands as a tour manager of sorts. I have witnessed so many good bands I will never forget... so many horrible bands I (regretably) will never forget as well... and so many bands that I can't remember for some reason. So... I have this blog to help my memory and keep me busy while we drive for days and days and days... and days
What's going on here...
Music reviews in 150 words or less... of bands that you might not see in pitchfork but you will definitely see going boom boom in the bp bathroom somewhere off US Rt. 80.
P.S. lately I have been reviewing bands that you do see in pitchfork. BOOOOOO! I SUCK!
