  • Sorry, Unavailable on Tuesday, Me & Will Oldham Are Catching Up.

    Going to the BPB concert here in Calgary on Tuesday, March 24th and am getting excited.  Word is that the show is pretty darn good (various twitter feeds from fellow bloggers indicate as such).  Apparently a good mix of new and old material, so that is always a promising situation when an artist has such…

  • Played Out – New, Old, Unknown, Almost Popular Playlist?

    It is true, I am delving into the fray (not the band, cuz that’s weird) and putting out a Sunday Mixlist.  It is almost a blogger tradition to put out playlists/mixtapes/themed musical collections.  I tend to try and theme some (see ladies night/men’s night), but sometimes I find it a bit of a chore to…

  • SXSW Song of the Night – Eulogies’ “This Fine Progression”

    AHHHHH, SXSW Emails!  Okay fine, this one I will post as I think the song is pretty darn kick ass.  For once I get a nice little Slow and Acoustic track recommended.  I think they hit the target market here. Eulogies is not exclusively Slow and Acoustic, but the song of the night sure is,…

  • Album to look forward to: Weinland – “Breaks In The Sun”

    Upcoming on April 21st, 2009 – Badman Recording Company is releasing the next album from Weinland called “Breaks In The Sun”.  If you are familiar with Weinland, you will know it will be an album of rich textrure and at times ethereal acoustic melodies.  Believe me, it is that good.  If by chance you find…

  • Sufjan gets updated and just a little bit “street”!

    Found in the ol inbox the other day.  I mean, I am not the utmost purveyor of hip/hop mashes, but with Sufjan Stevens involved (or his music at least) you might just start out better than most remixes.  I have no problem listening as it is very well done, and you know bloggers and their…

  • Post Rock Instrumental Evening – Montreal’s Torngat Is Invited.

    Montreal Quebec’s ambient power trio Torngat create majestic instrumental music that is at times as breathtaking as the glorious Quebec mountain range from whom they take their name. Torngat return with “La petite Nicole”, the follow up to the critically acclaimed 2007 effort, “You Could Be”. This time around the band is sporting a grittier,…

  • The Cloud Hymn – New Album & Interview

    The day has come (or actually tomorrow, March 3rd) and we have the release of the debut album from “The Cloud Hymn”.  I have been waiting for this album for a while now ever since I started listening to a few demos last year and was so impressed, that I had to post then…on just…

  • Chriss Sutherland & Brown Bird – Spring Tour 2009

    One tour I would love to see would be the upcoming tour of Brown Bird and Chriss Sutherland.  While both have been featured here on Slowcoustic in the past (here & here), teaming up these two…that is bad ass.  Chriss has a new album “Worried Love” and Brown Bird will be looking to also have…

  • Kentucky Nightmare are anything but…

    A new tune from Kentucky Nightmare that I am currently enamored with is “Caroline & I” from the new release “Take Her Favour”.  I hope you will enjoy it as well.  I also think I like them because of the description of the creating process of the album as such: After excruciatingly enjoyable sessions at…

  • husband&wife – “Dark Dark Woods”

    I have previously posted on husband&wife (yes, there is no space in the band name – it is like its one word) and I have been advised that today (Jan. 29th) there will be an appearance from h&w on the indie hit-maker Daytrotter.  This is exciting, I think the new album (due on Feb. 24th…
