Like folk-rock? How about Classical violin? Well Josh Ritter and Hilary Hahn are from two very different musical spectrums. Yet I believe thats what makes this so precious. http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=90185501 No marketing angles here. Just two artists that consider it a "double bill", but play together some as well.

After a long hiatus and some considerable urging of Scotty, thought it was time to revive a column we seem to reference a lot, but have not seen a new entry from since mid-March - Better Than Noodling. So with that out of the way, let's dig in with probably the best music act to come out of the great state of Idaho since Paul Revere & The Raiders (yup I just referenced a band that wore tri-corn...

What I poses in my hand's is a bit of a miracle. Miracle in at least two senses. One sense is, that upon requesting it as a purchase at my local library, my request would not be filled. Oh well I shrugged, I get so many great books from the library, it's no skin off my back. The other is more profound.

Saw Josh Ritter a couple of nights ago at the Shepherd's Bush Empire in London. (Much gratitude to Joxley for putting me onto this.) Why wasn't Josh home for Thanksgiving, I wondered.I asked the guy standing next to me whether Josh is famous in this country. (Yes, I don't have much of a clue what is going on around me. And yes, there were more than a handful of solitary geeks in the audience. N...

Saw Josh Ritter in La Boule Noire last night. Unfortunately because of the transport strikes the place was only a third full. A great show anyway, songs new and old, a few velib jokes and audience participation in the form of cricket noises.

Thats a tough one to spell. Here is the Link. Cool hipster prints and Ts and stuff. I like these guys style. Cool art and the site flows great. Well done. Josh Ritter Poster for when he played with the Boston Pops on the left. Anyone know if they are releasing the recording from that night?~~

It's been racking up the plays for months and now barely I day goes by when I don't listen to it. Hell, it even inspired me to put some of my gig photos into a rather pathetic fan vid. Yup, this is my new favourite song.Disarmingly heartfelt and tender, it take an almost ludicrous scenario and transforms it the most touching love song I've heard. It uses the words we all wish we could say to su...
