The Bottle Rockets Live!
Where: Beachland Ballroom
Date: 2007-06-23 19:00:00
Type:
The simple fact is that the Rockets have been making some of the most incisive, hip and eclectic American music on the scene for over a decade now. Long known amongst folks with good taste (and longtime Bloodshot faves), the Bottle Rockets have spent their career raising dust and raising lighters with their spot on and literate anthems of the ordinary Joe. They are equally adept at long hair rockers from the rural route, gut-bucket boogies thatd make ZZ Top hang their heads in fraudulent, washed-up shame, or remarkably poetic elegies of loss and displacment.Look for the newest CD by the Bottle Rockets, Zoysia June 6th, on Bloodshot Records.Tour dates, bios, and MP3's:http://www.bloodshotrecords.com/artists/bottlerockets/Event submitted by Eventful.com on behalf of BSHQ.

Stacey Earle and Mark Stuart
Where: Beachland Ballroom and Tavern
Date: 2008-02-07 19:00:00
Type:
Stacey Earle, whose brother is singer/songwriter Steve Earle, has carved a nice niche with her two releases, 'Simple Gearle' and 'Dancin' With Them That Brung Me.' Her husband, Mark Stuart, joins her in the band. To the many fans who have caught these songbirds on one or more shows from their non-stop tours, Stacey Earle and Mark Stuart have long ago established themselves as one of the finest most engaging pairings in the folk country world.
Alanis Morissette
Where: Quicken Loans Arena (Formerly Gund Arena)
Date: 2008-02-07 19:00:00

Alanis Morissette's angst-ridden, yet occasionally hopeful, songwriting has resulted in many hits, including 'You Oughta Know,' 'Hand in Pocket' and 'Thank U.' The Mute Math dynamic can be viewed in parts. At its core, an inspired electro-alt rock band with a soaring sound that incorporates emotive vocals, hip hop styled beats, dubby soundscapes fueled by sample-like guitars and Rhodes piano flourishes, keytars, a homemade instrument (a Theremin- inspired guitar) and other random gadgets. The other is a finely tuned live act, with a highly infectious and equally energetic show, that's accented by the occasional acrobatics, experimental jams, knob twiddling and bouts of instrumental switcheroo that emboldens the player's chops. That's good, because music fans are always looking for something new to excite and intrigue them, and that is executed well. Mute Math definitely deserves a look- they nail it on record, and they kill it live. These are the elements that help Mute Math click with the fans of old and new, on a daily basis.
