John Lilly-"Cold Comfort"

I first met John Lilly soon after he became the editor of "Goldenseal," the magazine of West Virginia traditional life. But our first substantive conversation did not occur until I discovered that we both have a love of Hank Williams. John's first annual Hank Williams Tribute concert (which has become a staple of the state's music scene that was reviewed in this magazine on January 15, 2010 and it's next incarnation is scheduled for January 7, 2012) on the 50th anniversary…

The Tall Pines, A Knowing, Ass-Kicking 70s Nashville Revamp Unshackle Their ‘Hell Hounds’ EP

The Civil Wars are certainly civil compared to The Tall Pines, who harbor twang, moonshine and sass in equal parts. They do not fear to tread where more tender souls would be burned to a crisp.

 

Lead by Christmas Davis on steel string guitar and Connie Lynn Petruk on alligator-skin suitcase percussion, their new EP, written at the Davis, West Virginia home and originally recorded for an acoustic demo in Brooklyn, the ‘Hell Hounds’ EP (November 1, MMAM Records) is a…

Marlon Brando, Pocahantos and Gillian Welch (October 19, 2011, Pittsburgh, Pennsyvania)

I visited Nashville for the second time on May 19, 1994 -- the first was as a young boy when we caught an Opry show with relatives-- visiting a friend who was there pitching songs. While I was kinda beat, my buddy wanted to go out and I suggested The Station Inn as I knew Townes had played there. He quickly agreed adding that there would be a duo new to town that was making the songwriter circles that he'd like me to hear.



That duo turned out to be Gillian Welch and…

My First Lover: Gillian Welch at Moonlite Gardens (Cincinnati, Ohio 8/31/2011)

Cincinnati was the town of my youth. It was so conservative that it would later prosecute an art museum curator for exhibiting pornography (the Mapplethorpe photographs) and a little old lady for feeding nickels and dimes into expired parking meters. However, it was no so genteel as there were plenty of honky tonks in the Appalachian ghetto -- most famous for the pug-nosed Pete Rose -- that lined the streets and alleys between the hilltop university and downtown.  Still in my… Continue

There's No Depression in Heaven: Gillian Welch in Charlottesville, Virginia, August 18, 2011



While there may be no depression in heaven, there are many hearts of darkness in the music of Gillian Welch and David Rawlings.

 

As we hit Charlottesville, Virginia for our second of several stops on the East Coast leg of the tour that ends on December 1 at the Ryman, there was, fittingly it seemed, a Mennonite choir singing hymns on the downtown plaza. Men in their khakis and women in their colorful dresses and bonnets contrasted with the students,…

Hi Amos

 

      As a featured contributor to No Depression, I’m particularly keen on getting your feedback for the following – Please forgive the intrusion if you don’t have the time or inclination to reply.

 

      I’ve posted the following to the No Depression discussion board – you can either respond there or alternatively drop me a line at shatchsurvey1@yahoo.co.uk

 

Thanks very much for your time

Kind regards,

Steve

 

 

 

My name is Steve Hatch and I’m currently conducting research for my Master’s in Songwriting at Bath Spa University in Bath, England (though I happen to be an ex-pat Georgia boy).  I would be extremely grateful if you could find the time to listen to the track (link below) and answer the 2 accompanying questions.  The more detail, the better of course (more to say in my final analysis) – but all feedback will be useful and very much appreciated.

 

Sadly, as this is an academic pursuit, there is a deadline.  Please reply by May 20th if at all possible so that I can have time to chew over your response and include it in my final write-up.

 

            The track: http://soundcloud.com/stevehatch

 

1)     Which artist/band(s) would you say the track is most similar to and why?

 

2)     Which genre(s) would you say the track belongs to and why?

I haven't seen him play live since the early 90's but I always enjoyed his performances.
