CS Luxem plays The Brick, 1727 McGee Street KCMO, Friday, March 30, at 10:00 pm with Fullbloods, and Jim Button & The Beholders. More info at: http://www.whatevertapes.com

CS Luxem, thanks for being with us on Wednesday MidDay Medley

CS Luxem was born in Topeka, has lived in New York City, has toured all over the country and internationally, and is based in Lawrence, Kansas where he also works at Raven Book Store, 6 East 7th Street.

We were surprised to read that this was CS Luxem’s first full length album. He has been recording and releasing music since 2010. (Even as far back as 2005 if you count his early self produced DIY projects.) CS Luxem has been part of several various split releases with other touring artists, EP’s, singles, and collaborations with other bands including The Oils.

CS Luxem writes that Symptoms is about traveling, first loves, Chicago, New York City, dogs, feet, hands, the Oracle of Delphi, letting go, and getting out of your own way.

The album was recorded over a span of three months above a garage full of Model T’s in northwest Lawrence, KS. The songs were written between 2005-2017 and have been revised throughout these years with different collaborators.

CS Luxem – SYMPTOMS

Album notes: CS Luxem’s debut album SYMPTOMS opens the listener to a Wes Andersen-esque surreality dealt to praise the everyday and psych out the suits we ought follow. Thoroughly studied in a spectrum of schools including Harry Nilsson, The Temptations and Arthur Russell, the album entices us all to be in our most natural state, of love, and of dance.

Album Notes: CS Luxem has been most places. He and his music are light even at their heaviest and heady even at their lightest. And it’s contagious! His distinct vocals and exuberant rhythms are the core of his sound. Whether it be his polished pop jewels or his deep tidal pools of synthesized noise, CS Luxem entrances and invigorates the spirit. Instrumentation ranges from solo vocals with acoustic guitar, to a looping and effects station with electric guitar, to a full rock band with synthesizer, bass and drums. The versatility empowers this performer to vibe as the ambient canvas of an upscale function, as the hope-bearing minstrel at a retirement home, as the dive bar ultra party, and definitely as the scenester’s favorite house show act.

10:35

7. CS Luxem – “Space”
from: Symptoms / Whatever Forever / February 17, 2018

from: Satan’s Graffiti or God’s Art? / Vice Music / May 15, 2017
[8th studio album from Atlanta flower punk pioneers. Produced by Sean Lennon at his studio compound in upstate New York throughout 2016. During the recording the band isolated themselves from the outside world, infusing the album with a focused liveliness similar to the spirit that brought them together in the first place. On Satan’s graffiti or God’s art? founding members Cole Alexander and Jared Swilley teamed with former guitarist Jack Hines (who played in the group from 2002-2004) and recent additions Oakley Munson on drums and Zumi Rosow on saxophone. The album also features contributions by Saul Adamczewski of Fat White Family and guest vocals by Yoko Ono. Black Lips were born of DIY ethic, working their way from sweaty basement shows in Georgia to huge crowds at international music festivals (including a performance at Fun Fun Fun Fest that appears in Terrence Malick’s film Song to Song) to tours in such far flung locales as India, Jordan, Cyprus, Egypt, Lebanon, Iraqi Kurdistan, the United Arab Emirates, and many more.]

Brenton Cook, Thanks for being with us on Wednesday MidDay Medley

11:03

13. Sego – “Whatever Forever”
from: Whatever Forever” – Single / Dine Alone Records / September 14, 2017
[Los Angeles based Sego is Spencer Petersen and Thomas Carroll. Both were birthed in the burgeoning Provo, Utah music scene. However, finding inspiration in the dissonance that the towering structures and bustling city offers over the mountains and relative quiet of Provo, both relocated to an old pasta factory in downtown LA. Through various projects together, both founding members uncovered their distinct sound: lazy, grungy guitars with digital overlays and refreshingly honest lyrics. The band’s debut album, Once Was Lost Now Just hanging Around, came out March 4, 2016 and surprises with angular guitars, complex arrangements and musings from an 80’s kid contemplating the void left from the misguided hope of our youth.]

11:07

14. Post Animal – “Special Moment”
from: When I Think of You in a Castle / Polyvinyl / Expected April 20, 2018
[Chicago-based Post Animal are a band of brothers. Though they formed in 2014 and just began touring in 2017, their affinity for slick riffs, pop hooks, and psychedelic tendencies join them in a bond much tighter than their years suggest. Initially formed when childhood friends, bassist Dalton Allison and guitarist Matt Williams, met keyboardist and guitarist Jake Hirshland, the band’s sound began to take shape when the three enlisted some more pals from both the Chicago music scene and through their time working at local burger joints. Rounding out the band’s lineup, Post Animal is completed by drummer Wesley Toledo and guitarists Javi Reyes and Joe Keery.]

11:13

15. The Rotten Mangos – “Take Care When the Wind Blows”
from: Couldn’t Find A Word / The Rotten Mangos / December 1, 2017
[McAllen, TX based 2-piece band of Cristian Sigler on drums, & Ramiro Verdooren on guitar & vocals]

11:16

16. Anna Burch – “With You Every Day”
from: Quit The Curse / Polyvinyl / February 2, 2018
[Debut Album of Detroit singer/songwriter Anna Burch, who is a veteran of the music scene from her years in the bands: Frontier Ruckus, and Failed Flowers. Burch’s fixation with music transitioned from a childhood of Disney and Carole King sing-alongs to more typically angsty teenage years spent covering Bright Eyes and Fiona Apple at open mic nights. By 18 she was deep into the lifestyle of the touring musician, juggling all the regular trials and changes of young life while on a schedule that would have her gone for months on end. After a few whirlwind years of this, exhausted and feeling a little lost, she stepped away from music completely to attend grad school in Chicago. This respite lasted until 2014 when she moved to Detroit and found herself starting work in earnest on solo songs she’d been making casual demos of for a year or so. “Writing songs that I actually liked for the first time gave me a feeling of accomplishment,” Burch said, “Like, I can do this too! But working with other musicians and hearing the songs go from sad singer/songwriter tunes to arranged pop songs gave me this giddy confidence that I’d never felt before.” Anna continues, “To me this album marks the end of an era of uncertainty. Writing songs about my emotional struggles helped me to work through some negative patterns in my personal life, while giving me the sense of creative agency I’d been searching for.”]

11:23

17. Hi-Lux – “Take Me Where You Are”
from: Hi-Lux – EP / Hi-Lux / February 1, 2018
[Originally released as a single on August 15, 2017. Now included in this 6 song EP.

The band brings together elements of soul, reggae and funk for a unique and dance inspiring sound. More info at: http://www.hi-lux.bandcamp.com]

18. The Urban Renewal Project – “Newsflash (feat. Elmer Demond)”
from: 21st Century Ghost / Fastrac Records – Resonance Records / September 15, 2017
[THE URBAN RENEWAL PROJECT is a dynamic young band out of Los Angeles, playing an original mix of pop, jazz, soul and hip-hop. Since 2010, the 15-piece ensemble has teamed up with singers and rappers to blend the hip-shaking grooves and deep pocket of today’s music with face-melting horn lines and fiery improvisation from big band jazz. Their signature sound has blown away audiences from New York’s Rockwood Music Hall to the San Jose Jazz Summerfest and beyond. Their debut release on Fastrac Records (a new division of Resonance Records, the acclaimed archival jazz label), 21st CENTURY GHOST, is a genre-bending meditation on isolation in the era of hyperconnectivity, with nine guest vocalists. The band includes: R.W. Enoch, Jr. — composer, arranger, tenor saxophone, Bb clarinet, fender rhodes, hammond m3, roland jd-xi, xylophone, editing; Brian Clements — soprano saxophone, piccolo, flute, Bb clarinet; David Wise — alto saxophone, flute; Matt Ballard — baritone saxophone, Bb clarinet, bass clarinet; Mitch Cooper — trumpet, flügelhorn; Elliot Deutsch — trumpet, flügelhorn; Brina Simon — trumpet, flügelhorn; Evan Mackey — trombone; Lindsay McMurray — trombone; Michael King — bass trombone; Tim Friedlander — acoustic guitar, electric guitar; Dustin Morgan — double bass, electric bass, fretless bass, vocals; Satoshi Kirisawa — drum set, congas, bongo, tambourine, shaker, zil.

11:35

19. Durand Jones and The Indications – “Make A Change”
from: Durand Jones & The Indications / Dead Oceans – Colemine Records / Sept. 8, 2016
[Bayou-born soul sensation, Durand Jones got his start in the church, after being forced to sing in the choir of his rural hometown Hillaryville, Louisiana because his Grandmother thought he sang too much at home. When his music career took him to Bloomington, Indiana, he was selected to join the legendary Indiana University Soul Revue, and it was through his involvement that he met writer/producer duo Aaron Frazer and Blake Rhein. The three began writing original soul music, recording themselves straight to tape in the basements of Bloomington – and their debut album is now available on our record label, Colemine Records.]

[Durand Jones & The Indications play recordBar, 1520 Grand, Sun, April 8, at 7:00 w/ Instant Karma]

11:45

21. Essaie Pas – “Futur Parlé”
from: New Path / DFA / March 16, 2018
[Emerging from Montreal’s sprawling electronic scene, the duo – Marie Davidson and Pierre Guerineau– feel completely free to express themselves, to sketch out hitherto unmapped musical regions. “Essaie Pas has always been about exploring new territories” explains Pierre. “From the very first tapes, to the last one. We don’t want to do the same thing over and over again, – we just need to keep it exciting and to challenge ourselves. Take those experiences, open new boxes and see what happens.” ‘New Path’ takes this one step further. The duo’s fifth album to date – and second on powerhouse label DFA Records –is loosely based on Philip K. Dick’s A Scanner Darkly, a classic of dystopian science fiction. “I read the book a long time ago, maybe 15 years ago, and it had a strong impression on me,” explains Pierre. “In our previous work we always looked to music as inspiration in our lives, but this time we felt the desire to try something different, that’s not based on ourselves but on someone else’s universe. It was going to be more conceptual, more political.” .]

11:48

22. Boy Harsher– “Westerners”
from: Country Girl (extended version) – EP / Boy Harsher / March 16, 2018
[Augustus Muller develops the underbelly of sound with minimal beats and grinding synths, where Jae Matthews whispers, screams and chants on top. Together, the music created is somewhere between industrial, drone and confessional storytelling. Muller and Matthews both have a strong background in film and their cinematic approach translates effectively in both their recordings and live performance. Boy Harsher started in early 2013 under the name Teen Dreamz. The project was based on short stories written and read by Matthews then live scored by Muller. As the project matured the instrumentals became more dance influenced and Matthews’ delivery became more dynamic and spontaneous. In January of 2014 Teen Dreamz took on the moniker Boy Harsher. Boy Harsher currently resides in Northampton, Massachusetts. ]

[Boy Harsher plays The Riot Room Patio, April 3, at 8:00 PM with Agony Machine]

His music is described as “more of a throwback to Vaudeville than the Dust Bowl.” Music Blogger Brian Clifton wrote, “Nicholas St. James blends together old and new to create a sound as distinct as its stage show. St. James mixes folk, blues, vaudevillian drama, and country together.” Based in Lawrence, Kansas, by way of St. Louis, Missouri, Nicholas is an authentic Midwestern folk musician, and credits Tom Waits as an inspiration. Ed Danger, of American Roots Magazine, wrote, ”If Bob Dylan and Tom Waits were the same person, they’d write songs like Nicholas St. James. This guy can work a room as one man and a guitar better than many full bands. If you’re a fan of performance, soul and genuine subject content, you’ll love his set. You probably won’t be dancing as much as you’ll be captivated.” More information at: http://www.nicholasstjames.com]

IVØRY BLACK’s debut EP, Ready Get Set was released in June 2015, recorded and mastered by Larry Gann of Awestruck studios. Micah Burdick on guitar, Craig Kew on bass, and Lester Estelle, drummer for Kelly Clarkson, on drums.

Klaartje Van Lue is Ivory’s manager and she was the one who helped IVØRY find her way to KC. IVØRY has said that she saved her life.

Born in Peoria Illinois, in 1986, IVØRY BLACK, was Devin James Miclette, and has lived through many experiences in a journey that finds it’s way into the lyrics of IVØRY’s songs.

From IVØRY’s press materials: Growing up in a world where music was a way of self expressing oneself and turning to in times of trouble, it was inevitable that IVØRY would turn to it when waters were the roughest. “My parents listened to a lot of classics such as Fleetwood Mac, The Beatles, The Bee Gees, The Rolling Stones, and Tom Petty just to name a few”, Ivory has said. One of which, when a child, Ivory almost burned out a Robbie Dupree single “Steal Away’’ due to the catchy rhythms and melody of the song. “I wasn’t really allowed to listen to newer things, ultimately cause of how conventional my parents really were.”

Spencer Brown, welcome back to Wednesday MidDay Medley

Rachel, Winnie, Trixie and Trampolina

From The Kinsey Sicks press materials: Humble Beginnings. The Kinsey Sicks began in 1993 as a group of friends who went to a Bette Midler concert in San Francisco dressed as the Andrews Sisters. Assuming they’d be among many drag queens, they found themselves to be the only ones (other than Bette, of course). They were approached that night to perform at an upcoming event. Their reply – “we don’t sing” – was quickly disproved when they realized that all of them had musical backgrounds. They began singing and harmonizing that night, and the seed for the Kinsey Sicks was planted.

It has been nearly 11 years since Spencer Brown first premiered his alter ego Daisy Buckët at Bar Natasha. Since then Daisy Buckët has helped to usher in a new generation of drag in Kansas City.

The Kinsey Sicks were formed in 1993, by original members: Ben Schatz (“Rachel”) is a Harvard-trained civil rights lawyer, former Director of the national Gay and Lesbian Medical Association, and one-time presidential advisor on HIV issues, who created the first national AIDS legal project and authored Clinton’s HIV policy during the 1992 presidential campaign, and Irwin Keller (“Winnie”) is a University of Chicago-trained lawyer and linguist and former director of the AIDS Legal Referral Panel of the San Francisco Bay Area, who authored Chicago’s gay rights ordinance, passed into law in 1989. In 2004, the Kinsey Sicks were joined by actor/singer/designer Jeff Manabat, who is responsible for Trixie’s inordinate glamour and soaring counter-tenor, as well as the entire group’s hot couture. Beginning in October of 2008, the Kinsey Sicks are joined by the hilarious and talented Spencer Brown (“Trampolina”), a Kansas City-based actor and singer, already known for his drag character Daisy Buckët (pronounced, of course, “bouquet”)

The members of Molly Picture Club are: Aniko Adany on vocals, synthesizers, keyboards, & the omnichord; Matthew Hayden on drums, & drum sequencing; and Michael Tipton on vocals, guitar, & bass. These are some of the hardest working musicians in Kansas City. Their self-titled, full-length, debut release, Molly Picture Club, was one of our Best Recordings of 2012. The band is back with a new EP “In My Own Time Machine.”

——————————————————————————————–

The following is excerpted from: This city’s like a small town – Molly Picture Club’s blog (mollypictureclub.blogspot.com)

The blog talks about how the band went back to the blackboard, to assess what the next phase of Molly Picture Club was going to look like.

“We talked about Madonna. We talked about how some bands seem to stay the same and some continually evolve. We talked a lot, but everyone agreeing what direction we wanted to truly go was another thing. This isn’t really a negative thing and in fact, from what I hear, is pretty common in all relationships. So we played in a space for awhile that had no direction, no end goal, no purpose other than to jam.”

“We talked about adding a bass player, since our bass tracks were pre-recorded and pumped through Matt’s Mac top. To some degree, it was nice because there wasn’t an additional schedule in the mix (we are all pretty busy the way it is), and no 150 lb. bass amp to lug around. Outside of playing live, it was also convenient to just plug in at the studio and record a bass part and then pick up a guitar and start playing to it.”

“Not having a bassist also came with it’s limitations. We are basically unable to change the song format on a whim, or go on a tangent during live performances.”

“In a way, this EP is a testimony of MPC finding its borders with the set of tools we had been working with for the past three years. Things change inevitably and the transition between seasons is undefinable and often relieving, and I think that’s the place this album comes from. But as Andre 3000 once said, “Ya’ll don’t wanna listen to me, you just wanna dance.”

“Greetings from Tim Buckley” follows the story of the days leading up to Jeff Buckley’s eminent 1991 performance at his father’s tribute concert in St. Ann’s Church. Through a romance with a young woman working at the concert, he learns to embrace all of his feelings toward the father who abandoned him – longing, anger, forgiveness, and love. Culminating a cathartic performance of his father’s most famous songs, Jeff’s debut stuns the audience and launches his career as one of the greatest young musicians of his time.

12. Jeff Buckley – “Hallelujah”
from: Grace / Columbia – Sony / August 23, 1994
[American singer-songwriter and guitarist. His biological father, Tim Buckley, was a singer-songwriter who released a series of highly acclaimed folk and jazz albums in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Jeff Buckley said he only met his father once at the age of eight. After his father died of a drug overdose in 1975, he took on his father’s name Buckley and his real first name, which he found on his birth certificate. After a decade as a session guitarist in Los Angeles, Buckley made his public singing debut at a tribute concert for his father called “Greetings from Tim Buckley”. The event was held at St. Ann’s Church in Brooklyn on April 26, 1991. Buckley rejected the idea of the concert as a springboard to his career. Buckley gained a following in the early 1990s for his live performances of Dylan and Cohen songs at venues in Manhattan’s East Village. After rebuffing much interest from record labels he signed with Columbia, recruited a band, and recorded what would be his only studio album, Grace. Over the following two years, the band toured widely to promote the album. In 1997, Buckley moved to Memphis, Tennessee, to resume work on the album, to be titled My Sweetheart the Drunk. While awaiting the arrival of his band from New York, he drowned during a spontaneous evening swim, fully clothed, in the Wolf River when he was caught in the wake of a passing boat. His body was found on June 4, 1997.]

13. Judy Ancel – “Excerpt of Speech from Occupy KC Rally 10/9/11”
Judy Ancel is Director of the Institute for Labor Studies and Host and producer of The Heartland Labor Forum, heard every Thursday Evening at 6:00 PM on 90.1 FM KKFI.

The movement known as “Occupy Wall Street” has spread far beyond its starting point in lower Manhattan and now has offshoots in 25 cities nationwide, from D.C. to Alabama to Portland, to Topeka. Demonstrators are protesting everything from corporate greed to joblessness to economic inequality. Occupy KC has set up a site at 1 Memorial Drive, in an amazing location just south of Liberty Memorial, just West of The Federal Reserve Bank, and just east of the public art installation, created by artist, John Salvest that is titled IOU/USA.

Occupy Wall Street began as a call to march against economic policy in the U.S., particularly in regard to Big Business collusion with government and funding in politics. The failure elected leaders to bring to justice those who are responsible for the economic crisis. The Occupy Wall Street movement stands behind a call to the 99%, those of us who are not among the wealthiest 1% of our nation who wield political and financial power in the U.S, are now standing and demanding to be heard.

Occupy Kansas City stands in Solidarity with those Occupying in NYC at Liberty Park. The diversity of those occupying is the strength. We are all the 99%. We are proud to come together to voice our dissatisfaction and demand accountability, no matter the difference of our political backgrounds, heritage, and personal choices. As individuals we come together, for our strength is in our numbers.

The unemployment rate in the U.S. is at 9.1% and in Kansas City it is 8.5%. (http://bls.gov/web/metro/laummtrk.htm)
