Alicia Olatuja at Dazzle
by Geoff Anderson
Alicia Olatuja Dazzle Denver, CO July 25, 2019 If Alicia Olatuja wasn't a singer, she could probably be a counselor. As it is, she's a counselor to the songs she sings. She develops personal relationships with them. It seems that she spends hours with them on the couch intently listening to ...
Dead Can Dance at Sava Center 2019
by Nenad Georgievski
Dead Can Dance Sava Center Belgrade, Serbia June 28, 2019To classify Dead Can Dance only as a goth band would be like enclosing them in a disproportionate cage. Insufficient, inadequate and undermining. It would be fairer to describe this group led by multi-instrumentalist and vocalist Brendan Perry and vocalist Lisa ...
Ghost Light At Twiddle's Tumbledown Festival
by Doug Collette
Ghost Light Waterfront Park Tumbledown Music Festival Burlington, VT July 26, 2019 The bright, hot late afternoon sun hardly outshone keyboardist Holly Bowling's stage presence during Ghost Light's July 26th opening set on the main stage of Tumbledown. While she was unobtrusively navigating the quintet during an virtually uninterrupted hour ...
Live From Birmingham: Siksa, Brian Jackson & Daddy Long Legs
by Martin Longley
Siksa Centrala June 30, 2019 As unto a deep folkloric tradition from Poland, the duo of Siksa are viewable as conduits for contemporary social observations, the punk-noise descendants of ye olde troubadours, spreading a torrent of words across a manure field of distortion. The Centrala art gallery in Birmingham is ...

NYOS Jazz Orchestra Featuring Yazz Ahmed @ The MAC
by Ian Patterson
NYOS Jazz Orchestra Featuring Yazz Ahmed The MAC Belfast, N. Ireland July 22 , 2019 It was a pretty decent crowd for a Monday night. An older crowd, drawn to big-band jazz. Few, it seemed, were Belfast jazz gig regulars, at least, not the usual suspects who pitch up to ...
Moldejazz 2019
by Martin Longley
Moldejazz Molde, Norway July 15-20, 2019 In the last few years, the Moldejazz festival's artists-in-residence have kept their appearances down to a manageable human count, with two or three concert manifestations apiece from Pat Metheny, Vijay Iyer and Maria Schneider. For the 2019 edition, that position was awarded to Norwegian ...
