Paul Simon To Return to Stage for August's Outside Lands Fest

Music News -Outside Lands announced today that Paul Simon will return to the concert stage for a special live performance this August as the artist to close the festival on Sunday, August 11th. The full festival lineup will be revealed March 26.

 

While no longer touring, Paul Simon has previously stated his commitment to perform the occasional concert in benefit of philanthropic organizations he supports, particularly those in the area of environmental protection and ecology. Outside Lands’ location in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park, combined with the shared environmental initiatives of the Festival producers provided Paul Simon this perfect opportunity. To this end, Simon will be donating the entire net proceeds from his Outside Lands performance to local environmental non-profit organization(s) to be announced shortly.

 

Outside Lands has proven to be a leader in sustainability in today’s festival landscape and has remained committed to such causes throughout its 12-year history.

 

Of Outside Lands, Simon said, “I’m looking forward with great anticipation to playing at Golden Gate Park this summer. This will be my first appearance there, and it’s an honor to join the long line of musicians who’ve given the park its sanctified musical heritage. I’m equally pleased to be playing in San Francisco with its well-deserved reputation for being in the forefront of environmental issues. I’m grateful for the opportunity to be of service to this vital cause.”

 

No stranger to concerts in, and benefitting, iconic parks, in 1981, Simon performed with Art Garfunkel in New York’s Central Park in front of 500,000 people. Proceeds went toward redevelopment and maintenance of the park, which had deteriorated due to lack of municipal funding. Simon returned to Central Park a decade later, in 1991, to play to a record-setting 750,000 people.

INAUGURAL RAILBIRD FESTIVAL ANNOUNCED FOR LEXINGTON, KY

Music New- A new music event will join Keeneland's calendar in 2019, bringing with it significant economic and tourism impacts for Lexington, KY. And, it isn't a horse race.

 

Nationally renowned festival producer AC Entertainment - of Bonnaroo, Forecastle, High Water, Moon River and other top music festival fame - is introducing Railbird Festival, taking place on The Grounds at Keeneland, August 10 - 11, 2019.

 

"With all of our festivals, we aspire to create an experience that stands apart from others - that is a true celebration of place, of the richness and uniqueness of a community," said Ashley Capps, president of AC Entertainment. "That, for us, is at the heart of any truly great festival experience. What a place this is, and what a team to collaborate with. This iconic setting at Keeneland in a city like Lexington, Kentucky, and these visionary leaders who make it all work, from bourbon to horses to bluegrass and everything in between. We couldn't be more excited for this new venture."

 

The name Railbird is twofold. A "railbird" in horse racing is the racetrack regular known for sticking close to the action and hanging on the rail along the track. To "ride the rail" is to do the same at a concert. Railbird will welcome attendees from near and far to get in the action in the same way for an unforgettable weekend of music, art and bourbon in a one-of-a-kind setting.

Netflix to Stream Anticipated Documentary “Fyre”

Music News- An exclusive behind the scenes look at the infamous unraveling of the Fyre music festival. Created by Billy McFarland and rapper Ja Rule, Fyre was promoted as a luxury music festival on a private island in the Bahamas featuring bikini-clad supermodels, A-List musical performances and posh amenities. Guests arrived to discover the reality was far from the promises.

Chris Smith, the director behind the Emmy Award Nominated documentary Jim & Andy: The Great Beyond, gives a first-hand look into disastrous crash of Fyre as told by the organizers themselves.

The Netflix Original Documentary will be released globally January 18, 2019.  Wisconsin-born director Chris Smith is known for independent films that reveal some of the more curious aspects of the “American dream”.  Wry, empathetic, and wise, Smith’s films occupy a special niche in contemporary cinema. His directing credits include the Emmy-nominated JIM & ANDY: The Great Beyond Featuring a Very Special, Contractually Obligated Mention of Tony Clifton (2017), AMERICAN MOVIE (1999 Sundance Grand Jury Prize for Documentary), COLLAPSE (2009), THE YES MEN (2003) and THE POOL (2008 Sundance Audience Award), in addition to numerous commercials for US production company Smuggler.

Produced by: Danny Gabai (VICE Studios), Chris Smith (Library Films) and Mick Purzycki (Jerry Media) 

Executive Producers: Brett Kincaid, Max Pollack, Matthew Rowean, Gabrielle Bluestone, James Ohliger, Elliot Tebele

Acclaimed Duo "Over The Rhine" Announces First New Album In Four Years “Love & Revelation” – Out 3/15

Music News- Critically acclaimed Ohio husband and wife duo Over the Rhine celebrates 30 years of making understated yet emotionally-charged music with the March 15th release of Love & Revelation.  Self-produced and releasing on their own Great Speckled Dog label, Over the Rhine’s first new music in four years finds the beloved duo in a deeply reflective place, contemplating both personal loss and the wavering of America’s collective compass. 2013’s acclaimed double album Meet Me At The Edge Of The World found the pair settling into a new chapter of their lives in rural Ohio. On the other end of the emotional spectrum, Love & Revelation explores the many forms of grief and how we react and process, but as with much of Over the Rhine’s body of work, there is often a deep undercurrent of hope.

Over the course of the last three decades, Linford Detweiler and Karin Bergquist (aka Over the Rhine) have established a reputation for delivering genuine, heartfelt stories of the human condition that are both empathetic and provocative. The pair’s expansive, incisive lyrics and earthy sound are often inspired by time and place. Each album represents a certain chapter in their lives – what they have experienced, and the resulting emotional landscape. Love & Revelation embodies the last four years.

Another revelation transpiring in that time frame is Over the Rhine’s Nowhere Else Festival. Now in its fourth year, the annual event has become a “musical family reunion” of nearly 1,000 fans and friends. Poised to grow significantly, the gathering takes place on the farm Bergquist and Detweiler call home in rural Clinton County, Ohio, outside of Cincinnati. In many ways the festival acts as an extension of the community they have established with their fans, as they invite a variety of artists, writers and filmmakers for a weekend of music, art and conversation. This year’s artist curated event will take place on Memorial Day Weekend from May 24-26, 2019. More info at www.nowhereelsefestival.com.

Over the Rhine creates music that is both intimate and revelatory, with deeply rich textures, intricate arrangements and Bergquist’s warm, evocative vocals. Tracks such as “Los Lunas”, “Given Road” and “Broken Angels” exude these qualities. While each of the songs can feel like its own short film, the album nonetheless coalesces into a feature-length immersive experience. The resulting soulful collection illustrates life’s major moments, from suffering to celebration, while also creating a personal connection that feels innately human. True to form, the resilient duo retains their sense of hope as they look forward to the next 30 years.

ODESZA Releases Deluxe Edition of Grammy-Nominated Album 'A Moment Apart'

Music News- ODESZA has today released a deluxe edition of their GRAMMY-nominated latest album ‘A Moment Apart’, showcasing their endless creativity as musicians, producers, and songwriters who continually disintegrate any genre limitations of electronic music.

In addition to the original 16 tracks of ‘A Moment Apart’, this new digital-only Deluxe Edition features stripped-back and reimagined versions of LP singles “Falls (feat. Sasha Sloan)”, “Line Of Sight (feat. WYNNE & Mansionair)” and “Higher Ground (feat. Naomi Wild)”, inspired by the gorgeously intimate live performances of the latter two on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and Conan, respectively. 

Instrumentals for these three tracks are included in the Deluxe Edition, as well as two tracks from 2014’s ‘In Return’ that feature heavily in ODESZA’s live show: a VIP remix of “It’s Only (feat. Zyra)” and a collaborative remix from ODESZA and Golden Features of “Memories That You Call (feat. Monsoonsiren)”. Yesterday, ODESZA released a live performance video of “It’s Only” filmed at the WaMu Theater in their hometown of Seattle that attempts to capture the mind-blowing magnitude of their live show.  Watch below.

The release of ‘A Moment Apart (Deluxe Edition)’ is a fitting expansion on an album that has earned the pioneering Wahington state electronic music duo two GRAMMY nominations (Best Dance/Electronic Album, and Best Dance Recording for “Line Of Sight (feat. WYNNE & Mansionair)”). Following the release of the original album in Sept. 2017, ODESZA has taken to major festival stages such as Coachella, Panorama, Lollapalooza and Austin City Limits, while just last month, they announced the realization of a career-long dream with their curated four-day/night live music festival in Riviera Maya, Mexico on March 13-16. Called SUNDARA, the festival lineup will include multiple sets by top echelon contemporaries such as RÜFÜS DU SOL, RL Grime, Alison Wonderland and Bob Moses among many others, three separate and unique performances by ODESZA themselves, and a wide offering of other tropical vacation activities.
