Artists flourishing above 50k plays, and some new ones under

Tue, 11 May 2010 17:08:58 +0000

The following artists have gone over 50k plays on last.fm, so I must remove them from my list of favourite artists with under 50k plays and the corresponding playlist. Good for them!

1. Satin-voiced folksinger James Vincent McMorrow. Listen to Down The Burning Ropes.
2. A great act to see live: Joe Acheson Quartet, or rather their new name Hidden Orchestra. Listen to Celtic Harp.
3. Australian indie pop folk duo Agnes Kain, who apparently don't have any streamable songs here anymore. But anyway, they're good.
4. Indonesian synthpop extravaganza Goodnight Electric. Their track Am I robot? is free to download, yipee!
5. Blippy electronic act Lissi Dancefloor Disaster. Have a listen to their freely downloadable track oh my god.

To replace them, here are some musical tasties that I predict will go viral next (who wants to give me a nickel?):

1. Diana Pops, who has the kind of voice you want to curl up and sleep in. Go see what I mean with her song Mary Janes.
2. The wonderful folky Caro Bridges who now has a band (Caro Bridges & The River) and whose timingtastic song Right Now is always in my head but I don't mind because it's lovely.
3. Bluesy and brilliant Lail Arad. Have a listen to Everyone Is Moving to Berlin.
4. Matt Norris & the Moon, who create songs that get the imagination roaring. Go make your ears happy with live recording First Light of day.
5. Kate Kilbane only has 2 listeners (at time of writing). How is this possible?! Go make yourself one of them: Sweet Unknown.
6. Dreamy indie magician Therese Aune, whose haunting voice will burn into your brain (in a good way). Try the lonely ocean roar.

I am Hannah Werdmuller. I have an album out and am on Facebook too.

And my ex-boyfriend can't tell me I've sold out, because he's in a cult.
And he's not allowed to talk to me."

1. Rash
2. CO2
3. Ugly Faces

What is your favorite album by 1?
Play Me A Time

How did you get into 4?
I expect I'd always been aware of Ella Fitzgerald from my parents, but it wasn't until I heard her duet of Summertime with Louis Armstrong (my favourite song ever) in my early teens that I really started to love her.

What are your three favorite songs by 3?
1. Ta Douleur
2. La jeune fille aux cheveux blancs
3. Vous

What is a good memory concerning 2?
Never seen her live, but the first time I heard her I was very taken by her music and story.

Is there a song by 8 that makes you emotional?
In The Morning always gets me.

What are your three favorite songs of 1?
1. lulu
2. swirl me in your mind
3. Hammer and Bridge

What is your favorite song of the 9 artist?
Winds Over NeoTokyo

1. Of all the bands & artists in your collection, which one do you have the most of?
I have both of Ayla Nereo's albums, and 2 of Nicole Reynolds'.

2. What was the last song you listened to?
Are We Ever Gonna Have Sex Again?

3. What's in your CD player right now?
Nothing. Last album I played was Sarah Jarosz's Song Up In Her Head, I think.

4. What is your favourite instrument?
I'm very partial to the flute. Cello is also lovely. I would very much like to be able to play double bass.

5. Who's your favorite local band?
The Banana Sessions ftw.

6. What was the last concert you attended?
A combination of artists at Hidden Door if that counts, including GOL and Joe Acheson Quartet. Last proper gig was Malinky somewhere in Dumfries & Galloway.

7. What was the greatest concert you've ever been to?
I once saw Eels in pyjamas in Oxford, that was dead good. Also in jumpsuits in Leeds covering Get Your Freak On.

8. What's the worst band you've ever seen in concert?
Something I promptly forgot.

9. What band do you love musically but hate the members of?
I'm not sure I'd get on with Aerosmith.

10. What is the most musically involved you have ever been?
Writin' and playin' songs yo, Hannah Werdmuller. Also in a choir.

11. What show are you looking forward to?
Possibly The Banana Sessions on Friday, if I can get my act together.

12. What is your favourite band shirt?
I'm not convinced I have any. Wore Green Day and Nirvana ones into ratty pulps in my teens, though.

13. What musician would you like to hang out with for a day?
Michael Stipe is my favourite rambler, I would like him to talk to me about dogs and random crap.

14. What musician would you like to be in love with you for a day?
Haha, what potential for being creepy. I bet Andru Bemis would write a beautiful love song if given half a chance.

15. What was your last musical "phase" before you wizened up?
I mostly collect rather than go through phases, it just keeps growing. I listen to less J-pop than I used to, I guess. We'll see.

16. Sabbath or solo Ozzy?
I used to play bass in a band that played Black Sabbath. I choose Sabbath.

17. Did you know that filling out this survey makes you a music geek?
I expect the last.fm addiction has something to do with it too.

18. What was the greatest decade for music?
Oh, man. I am pretty fond of the 70s. Keen on the 30s too.

19. What is your favourite movie soundtrack?
ELO / Olivia Newton John - Xanadu. You heard.

Someone completely different.

Greetings! You can now smack me in the Facebook here on my Hannah Werdmuller music page. I've got some older recordings there, and will be putting new ones up as time progresses, as well as updating on performances etc.

Hannah Werdmuller - Ev'ry Time it Rains

Blair Hansen and Angie Evans at the Queen Bean

Sun, 20 Dec 2009 18:06:46 +0000

Last night I toddled along to The Queen Bean in Modesto, CA, to see Blair Hansen and Angie Evans play live.

Blair Hansen is criminally underlistened-to here on last.fm, but I've been listening to her songs here and on myspace so was very excited to see that she was playing in Modesto. She has an astonishingly beautiful voice (classically trained, her wiki tells me) that powerfully conveys all the passion behind her songs about love and heartbreak. Her song "Breakaway" (featured on the soundtrack for the film Hannah Free) won the 2009 OutMusic Country/Folk Song award. She was great live, and I bought her new album Real World (listening now - not up here yet, but check out her previous albums Blair Hansen and Smile).

I had only really heard Angie Evans' music in passing, but she totally won me over with her catchy rhythms, feminist lyrics, and powerful personality. Another artist with criminally few listeners on last.fm, she's technically another girl with a guitar but her songs cross over from folky to bluesy to r&b, each filled with memorable lyrics ("We make love when we make music / We make music when we make love"). Poetry, really. So I had to buy her album Cycle of Fruit too, which came with a lovely little sticker that proudly proclaims "I <3 ice cream, trees, orgasms, Angie Evans, hugs & feminism". Indeed I do. It will be stuck proudly on my guitar case.

I am Hannah Werdmuller and I love Blair Hansen, ice cream, trees, orgasms, Angie Evans, hugs & feminism.

Growing artists, and some new ones.

Mon, 14 Dec 2009 18:41:42 +0000

The following artists have gone over 50k plays on last.fm, so I must remove them from my list of favourite artists with under 50k plays and the corresponding playlist. Good for them!

1. The uke-tastic Jacob Borshard. Check out his track kokomo, which I love.
2. The fabulous indie folk artist Lay Low. Try Mama.
3. The gothic alt-country supremos Munly & the Lee Lewis Harlots. Listen to Jacob Dumb.
4. Italian punk rock band Prozac+. Try Superdotato.
5. Folk-singer Rose Polenzani. Check out Explain It to Me.
6. Catchy country-folk group Rosie and Me. Try Come Back
7. Fantastic avant-garde band Sophe Lux. Their song Target Market is one of my favourites ever.
8. Twee indie band The Brunettes. Have a listen to Loopy Loopy Love.
9. Amazing Nordic folk band Valravn. Their song Krummi rocks my socks.

To make up for it, have some new ones:

1. Oxford-based rocker Little Fish - amazing voice. Try Darling Dear.
2. Edinburgh's The Banana Sessions. Check out The Drunken Dormouse.
3. The delightful Your Yellow Dress, whose cover of Paper Planes (MIA) will have you addicted.
4. Possible best-named artist ever Pokey LaFarge. Check out Sweet Seventeen.
5. The exceptional Lisa Jaeggi. Try Likealoadedgun.
6. The incredibly catchy Agnes Kain. Listen to Puddles & mud.
7. Indie female vocalist Andrea Wasse. Listen to Cold Feet
8. Beautiful folk from Haruko. Try Autumn, golden trees.
9. Israeli rock band Midnight Peacocks. Listen to Die.
10. Serbian genius Lira Vega. Check out Lajka.
11. Fabulous Swedish vocalist and pianist Hajen. Try Sharks.
12. Cloud-voiced songwriter Nejra. Try Take This Voice.
13. British indie band Hoodlums. Try The Beat Bop.
14. Canadian folk duo Utah Carol. Their song Ruby is gorgeous.
15. The superb Borderville, a must-see-live band from Oxford. Try Short Sharp Shock.
16. The truly great blues rocker Danielia Cotton. Try Devil In Disguise.
17. Storytelling folk artist Sweet Soubrette. I love Siren Song.
18. Gorgeous folk singer Tessa Perry. Jumping Puddles is a lovely song.
19. Textured indie joy from Swati. Listen to Stay.
20. Chelsea McBee banjo and fiddle smorgasbord. Try
On The Mountain.
21. Funky jazz pianist and extraordinary singer Stephanie Nilles. I may be playing Kool Aid Stand on repeat for the next month.
22. Americana magic from Austin musician Sarah Jarosz. Not streamable on last.fm, but check out her myspace page. I doubt she'll be under 50k plays for very long, she's definitely one to watch ..

Borderville's new album, Joy Through Work - go!

Thu, 29 Oct 2009 18:20:18 +0000

Yay!

The magnificent Borderville have a new album called Joy Through Work out, which you can purchase on their website www.borderville.com ! Huzzah. They also have songs freely downloadable on last.fm - have a listen to Silence & Violence and One Solitary Violin. I will probably squeal like a guinea pig when my copy arrives.

If you get a chance to see them live, jump at it. They're quite good ..

Fight Like Apes

Wed, 26 Nov 2008 16:35:48 +0000

I had to take the brilliant band Fight Like Apes from my Cream of under 50K plays list and the corresponding playlist, as they have gone above 50K! Bloody good band, and great live,so good for them.
