jmdl LIBRARY: Singer-songwriter gets no respect in rock history: Denver Post, February 18, 1996 Virtually every recording artist is a songwriter these days, especially if his or her aim is the lucrative and pop-culturally superrelevant rock market. The Velvet Underground, a band unfairly dismissed in its time because radio stations were suspicious of Andy Warhol's involvement, was the subject of a five-CD boxed set last year. The Stooges' lead singer, Iggy Pop, is far more influential among today's youth than he was then. www.jmdl.com /library/print.cfm?id=829   (1876 words)

Splendid E-zine: at a glance reviews - October 15, 2001 With modest vocals and plenty of backup instrumentation, Irish singer-songwriter Andy White's music is far from objectionable -- but it isn't something that you can easily cuddle up with, either. White's music would have been a lot more intimate if it hadn't been glossed over with the sort of lush production techniques you tend to pick up when you work with folks like Peter Gabriel and Neil Finn (as has White). Despite the band's professionalism (singer Sonobuoni has been at this schtick since 1982), few of the songs stand out from the pack; The Age of Asparagus feels monotonous, as if wilting in the heat. www.splendidezine.com /reviews/oct-15-01/aag.html   (7097 words)

Cacomixl Kudos to Karma Cafe for catching up with Andy White, Irish singer-songwriter, between folk festivals. Andy played a charming couple of sets to a mere 35 people.

Amazon.ca: Music: Six Months, No Sun [Import] His skill as a songwriter is such that the songs are substantial enough to stand such stark relief. There are also skillfully worded songs of love gone wrong, including "I Wonder Where You Are Tonight" and "Foolish As That May Be." Relying primarily on acoustic instrumentation (including the fiddle and mandolin of Tammy Rogers), Kane places the emphasis squarely on the songs themselves. Highlights on the album include the title track, which is a solid country song, and "Table Top Dancer," which is a rather bleak vignette of working-class life. www.amazon.ca /exec/obidos/ASIN/B00003Q5EY   (320 words)

PopMatters Music Interview You're Not So Silent, Jens The White Stripes + The Shins + Brendan Benson In the '90s everyone wanted to be British, all singers were girls who'd been working as au pairs in London and had the accent right. Straight out of Gothenburg, Sweden, the young songwriter's music ranges from K Records inspired samples and experimentation to simple pop songs; hearing his work, you're reminded of the lovely self-consciousness of, say, Jonathan Richman. www.popmatters.com /music/interviews/lekman-jens-051017.shtml   (1524 words)

Pitchfork: Daily Music News Smith had written very candidly about past drug use in his songwriting, most notably in the 1995 track "The White Lady Loves You More." In January, Smith even played a benefit show for a free needle exchange aimed at preventing the spread of AIDS and hepatitis among intravenous drug users. Wire reports from the Associated Press and Reuters today confirm that Los Angeles county coroner's officials believe the death is a suicide, indicating that the singer's body had sustained a single stab wound to the chest. Kill Rock Stars, who released Smith's 1995 self-titled solo album and 1997's Either/Or, changed their website's splash page to a pensive photo of Smith this afternoon in silent tribute to the beloved songwriter. www.pitchforkmedia.com /news/03-10/22.shtml   (1542 words)
