The Meeting Places was founded in September 2001 in Los Angeles, California by four guitarists, including Scott McDonald (Alison’s Halo and Brad Laner’s post-Medicine project, Amnesia), the architect of the quartet’s signature reverberating washes. Dean Yoshihara soon shifted to drum kit, Arthur Chan lent his talents to bass guitar, and singer and lyricist Chase Harris remained on rhythm guitar.
Each member contributed to the songwriting process on their debut album for Words On Music (Dean and Arthur picking up the guitar again for passages in “Take to the Sun” and “On Our Own” respectively). Find Yourself Along the Way is a stream of peerless compositions that inconspicuously tours the best of the early 1990s dream pop scene. But, due in large part to Harris’ deliciously nonchalant voice, the songwriting progresses from that scene with momentum towards a sparkling style of noise-pop that is equally memorable and provocative. www.themeetingplaces.com

CAT POWER - Her voice is unlike anyone you've heard before, combining raw intimacy with a gruff, chalky confidence, and while any attempt to interpret her lyrics comes up short, their plain-spoken lines belie an otherwordly perspective on primal human emotions. She's abstract, but always honest and true. That awareness has caused a tidal wave of adulation for Chan from her giant fan base, one that has tripled with each new record released. They'll go anywhere with her, trusting that it always leads to a familiar place that will never seem the same.Recorded by Adam Kasper (Queens of the Stone Age, Foo Fighters, Pearl Jam), You Are Free is Chan's first record of original material since 1998Õs Moon Pix, and she's at the apex of her talents. She's fascinated with American music, as heard through her covers of songs by Dylan, Lou Reed, Moby Grape, and traditional folk on her last release, The Covers Record, and has absorbed its history into her own. Broken down to their essentials, songs like "Good Woman," "Fool" and "Speak For Me" could have been written sixty years ago on a rural Mississippi back porch, but Chan ably personalizes the traditional so it sounds handmade for the modern day. You Are Free represents a breathing history of music as seen through the eyes of a skilled musician on her way to becoming a national heirloom.www.catpowermusic.com

А они это - вокалистка-пианистка Юки Чикудате, гитарист-бэк-вокалист Джеймс Хана, бас-гитарист Гленн Уолдман, ударник Кит Хопкин.

[300x267]Все новое есть ни что иное как вовремя... Ах да, вы в курсе. Так вот, по поводу старого и нового. Критика всю жизнь писала про The Apples in Stereo примерно следующее: ну вот опять эти чокнутые, которые положили жизнь на имитацию Beach Boys... сколько можно?!.. опять одно и то же... но как же, черт побери, здорово они это делают! Это и называется - правильные влияния. Это действительно здорово...
