REVIEWS

“To say that Anahita is an inspired update on the theme of East meets West – with Shweta Jhaveri singing age-old North Indian-style raga songs in a contemporary setting of guitar, violin, bass, and drums – would be to damn with faint praise. Beyond beautiful, this is creative music-making of the highest order, not so much crossing musical and cultural borders as blurring them altogether. Jhaveri is a world-class talent, and the deep, subtle sympathy among the vocalist and violinist Jenny Scheinman, guitarist Will Bernard, bassist Bill Douglass, and drummer Jim Kassis blesses every poetic, impeccably produced note here. From the sanguine dreaminess of the opening “Invocation” to the more desolate drones of finale “A Nost Dawn,” Jhaveri’s otherworldly voice weaves a serpentine […]

REVIEWS

The guitars of Bill Frisell and Vinicius Cantuária melt together in my car speakers as if impossibly designed to echo the beauty in this very moment…
For those familiar with these two artists, either individually or in their previous collaborative incarnations including Frisell’s own Intercontinentals or Cantuária’s absorbing Horse and Fish, their high level of artistic integrity and deep level of musical simpatico is a given. However, on Lágrimas Mexicanas their collaboration reaches a milestone with their first true duet record. In fact, Frisell and Cantuária are the only two musicians on the entire record, credited with vocals, percussion, acoustic and electric guitars and loops. The only outside contribution comes in the form of production from long time […]

REVIEWS

“Few songwriters can deftly weave separate similes involving Popeye, Olive Oyl and Sweet Pea into a single verse. Fewer still can make it sound deeply soulful. But such are the gifts that make Phelps such a remarkable artist. Besides his off-kilter lyrical expression, Phelps boasts a haunting vocal rasp and unmatched mastery of finger style and slide guitar. Together, these elements explore the deepest shades of blue, and they have never worked better than on this disc. Be it the melancholy waltz of “Not So Far To Go”, or the […]
