| | albertostellpflug | News Item | Dallas, TX - On Saturday, the 28th of January 2012, Lillian Agbeyegbe launched her new publication, Speaking My Daughter's Mind: A Collection of Blog Entries. Lillian Agbeyegbe, who read a short excerpt from the book, said she got the inspiration to start the baby blog due to the many positive responses she received after she sent out a mass email to family and friends announcing the birth of her baby girl. The blog ultimately lead to this collection of witty stories. At the launch, excerpts of the book were read by girls between the ages of 5-12, and they all showcased the book's fun and simple language.

Elef's Haus EP is a three tracker that will be pressed on pristine vinyl followed thereafter by global digital release. The tracks on this EP connect Detroit and Chicago influences to Elef's own German roots. The opener "Haus" is in many ways a bread and butter American Midwest acid house jam.

| | Music Emissions Alternative Music Reviews | Syndicated | Recorded barely six months after the September 11th attacks, the focal point of this solo acoustic performance was the one-two long-form poem punch of 'Serpentine' and 'Work In Progress' (later rechristened 'Self-Evident'), both written about American society before and after 9/11. Difranco writes that she felt "terrified but resolute"? as she performed: "What did I think I was doing? The nerve of me standing in front of an audience of New Yorkers and dragging them from a fun night out on the town, back into the epicenter of their pain." In those two songs of near-unbearable tension, she manages to make her audience laugh, cry, and cheer in ideological solidarity - a rare feat for any artist, and Difranco retains just enough humility to not go over the top. To her fans, she is both a down-to-earth friend and a passionate activist - this is an example of an artist and fans deserving of each other. Difranco is personable, and while often unnecessarily cute, it's impressive how she can swing from being vulnerab singles personals Read More... |
