  • Hitsville: The Year in Music, by the Numbers

    By Randall Roberts You don't need a half-wit music critic to tell you it's been a remarkable year for America, one historians will be discussing and researching for centuries to come. War, financial collapse, politics, technology: All have been dinner-table topics for many Americans. Racial barriers in 2008 were demolished by a Midwestern black man, and gender barriers were hurdled by an Arkansan and an Alaskan.Democracy has a few awesome new dance moves rolling into the Obama presidency, and i

    Son Volt: Jeff Tweedy is not in this band. Sadly, Phoenix is not getting Wilco this summer, as the band decided to take their extraordinary show to Tucson, but we're getting a pretty good consolation prize in Son Volt/Cowboy Junkies at the Mesa Arts Center on July 14. Tickets go on sale May 5 and will cost $40/$35. Old-timey alt-country fans know Jay Farrar, the lead singer of Son Volt, was once in a band called Uncle Tupelo with Wilco's Jeff Tweedy.

What I do have to offer, however, is a new EP from Austin indie rockers Spoon. Got Nuffin contains only 4 tracks, yet it is their first new music since 2007's incredible Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga. As well, the EP title is in keeping with lead singer Britt Daniel's insatiable need to give goof

  • Q&A: Dare I Ask Son Volt's Jay Farrar About The New Wilco Record?

    Jay Farrar spends a lot of time talking about the old days. Not just because his band, Son Volt, draws heavily from traditional American roots music. Also not just because his old band, Uncle Tupelo, pretty much invented the "alt-country" genre - though Farrar been known to bristle at the term.No, Farrar has to talk about the past because, the other main songwriter in Uncle Tupelo, Jeff Tweedy, went on to form Wilco after an acrimonious split. While Son Volt has had an impressive career - and e

    Frenz.comSinger/songwriter Neil Finn gathered family and friends in his native New Zealand to create and record a double album in three weeks.​ A sage singer/songwriter named Willie Nelson once extolled the joys of "making music with my friends" and a younger, but perhaps no less sage, singer/songwriter named Neil Finn obviously got the message. But instead of heading out "on the road again," New Zealander and Crowded House frontman Finn invited many of his musical friends and their fa
