Links I Love
Here are some sites I recommend.
It's growing by the day.
New York's Fang Records
My current label with brilliant folks like CHRIS RAEL and PENNY ARCADE.
Namoli Brennet
I played with Namoli (pronounced like "Anomaly" if you drop the "A") at
the Fifth Annual Queer Is Folk Festival in Chicago this year. She was
spellbinding. I can't stop listening to her song "Boy In A Dress;" it
haunts the hell out of me, and that's saying something coming from a
man who didn't grow up with any gender issues to speak of. Who says a
song has to tell your story to move you?
David Clement
Remarkable talent & old buddy whose music you'll love if you like
me.
Rebecca
Moore
Brilliant gothic avant-garde music with an emotional wallop. I love her
and you should.
The Late-Great Elliott Smith
Of course.
David Poe
David Poe used to run the sound at CB's Gallery in New York, and made
me sound great. Now he's a semi-biggie - the equivalent of a mid-list
literary writer back in the '50s, with lots of critical love and
respect but I guess not quite buying houses in the Hollywood Hills.
Love his stuff and will one day cover his song "Love Won't Last the
Afternoon."
Gillian
Welch & Dave Rawlings
Another 'of course.'
Brian Grillo
He fronted EXTRA FANCY until the majors destroyed his life. Now he's
recovered and gone solo with an acoustic homocore-blues record ...
that's so good I'm sure everyone will ignore it. Don't you.
Lisa
Germano
If you don't know her, check her out NOW.
Barnes
Brechtian Torch-Rock with a Bit o' Bowie ... but that doesn't begin to
encapsulate it ...
Joseph Arthur
I wrote about him in DETOUR, but they never paid me - I think they're
in bankruptcy protection now. But at least I got to spend an hour or so
hanging with him. He had a run on Peter Gabriel's label for a while -
but I still think he's dancing with the majors. Follow him when they
drop him.
Shivaree
I loved their first record - especially the title "I Oughta Give You A
Shot In The Head For Making Me Live In This Dump." Listen to "Arlington
Girl" on headphones.
Rose Polenzani
A real home-recording queen. I love her stuff. The lesbian content
really sings poetically here - I'm not just being 'supportive,' I
really mean it. Haunting and scary. Go listen now - do not pass go, do
not collect $200 first.
Scott
Free
This is the purest queercore out there. The best of Chicago, and kinda
hot too ... listen and learn.
Doria Roberts
Doria is the amazing force behind Queerstock, and a ferocious performer
and songwriter.
Queerstock
I performed in the festival during its early days, in a club that had
survived a hate-crime firebomb the year
before. Can't wait to do it again. The festival, I mean,
not the firebomb.
Marlon Cherry & Mecca Bodega
Fellow Fang Records artist. You can hear them on the streets and
subways of New York where they make their living. Jonathan Demme
heard them that way and made them the soundtrack to his cable film
SUBWAY STORIES. Marlon and I have played together frequently and
we'll team up for my next New York shows, so why not check him
out now?
