“Cowpoke” es una de las tonadas clásicas de vaqueros de Stan Jones, el actor y compositor de Arizona al que le debemos canciones como "Ghost Riders in the Sky". Jones murió de cáncer en 1963 pero su legado en la iconografía de los cowboys no se ha borrado. Colter Wall ha recuperado “Cowpoke” para adjuntarla a su último álbum, Western Swing & Waltzes and Other Punchy Songs, que debutó la semana pasada en el octavo puesto de las listas de country y el tercero de las de Folk/Americana, pero que resultó ser el que más vendió en soportes físicos con un amplio margen. Este nativo de Saskatchewan, en Canadá, de 25 años, ha elegido en su tercer álbum ser más severo al revitalizar la tradición del Western y homenajear a los cowboys. Su voz inimitable hace que, al escucharla, te detengas y le prestes toda la atención. La actualidad de la Americana está impregnada de tradición seminal y de un cierto universo cinematográfico que representa fielmente Charley Crockett en su último álbum, Welcome To Hard Times, y especialmente en canciones como “Fool Somebody Else”. Esta vez es una mezcla de influencias siempre equilibrada por la predominancia del Western como eje central. Aunque la letra pueda hacernos pensar que trata sobre una relación amorosa, la realidad es que Charley Crockett vuelve a referirse a sus problemas de salud que le obligaron a operarse a corazón abierto a comienzos del pasado año. Kalen Nash compuso “Loving You Still”, uno de los momentos mágicos de Back Of Our Minds, el debut de Kalen & Aslyn, el dúo que forma el matrimonio de Athens, en Georgia. En realidad parece que estuviéramos ante un diario sonoro en el que se han reflejado sus experiencias de la última década. Tras distintas vivencias individuales, la pareja decidió resumir una relación desordenada, imperfecta y claramente honesta como la suya a modo de capítulos de una novela. El resultado final es una fusión natural de los sonidos cálidos de los últimos 60 y primeros 70 en el sur de California. Kalen & Aslyn, que también han producido el proyecto, dejan canciones seductoras del estilo de “Loving You Still”, combinando sus armonías a la perfección. “Grit and Grace” habla de superación, determinación y fe en poder tener un final feliz. Es una canción basada en la historia real de un prisionero de guerra que la madre del vocalista Buddy Melton escribió junto a Milan Miller y Beth Husband. Da nombre genérico al nuevo álbum de Balsam Range, la banda de Haywood County, en Carolina del Norte, que mantiene el arraigo como fundamento de su carrera, que ha obtenido el amplio reconocimiento de la escena del bluegrass manteniendo su genuina dedicación a las historias sobre personas reales. Regresan a nuestro tiempo de radio Steep Canyon Rangers, con un nuevo trabajo como Arm in Arm, que ya anticipamos hace un par de meses. Se trata del primer disco de la banda grabado fuera de su estado natal en sus 20 años de historia. Esta vez se han acercado a los estudios Southern Ground de Nashville para seguir rindiendo homenaje a las tradiciones más vitales del bluegrass, aun cuando siguen explorando nuevas rutas sonoras. “Honey On My Tongue” pudiera sonar como un tema de ruptura, pero en realidad trata sobre las dificultades de la paternidad. Hace un año este “Bad Guy” formó parte del álbum One Light Town de Casey Donahew y en estas fechas se ha convertido en una de las canciones favoritas de las emisoras tejanas. Trata sobre un tipo egoista que reconoce no ser perfecto. El músico de Burleson ha conseguido gracias a una ejemplar constancia en sus 18 años de carrera ser uno de los artistas más considerados de la escena independiente del Lone Star State donde ha publicado nueve álbumes. Once Upon A River es una película que cuenta la odisea de Margo Crane, una joven nativa americana que viaja a lo largo del río Stark, en busca de su madre, de la que fue separada. Con tintes de Huckleberry Finn, la novela de Bonnie Jo Campbell ha pasado al cine gracias a Haroula Rose, artista musical y cineasta de Chicago con ascendencia griega que vivió durante una temporada en Madrid, algo que nunca ha olvidado y que presentó internacionalmente la cinta en el Festival de Mallorca. El próximo 2 de octubre será la fecha de su estreno definitivo. Además de la partitura de Zac Rae, músicos como J.D. Souther o Will Oldham han incorporado temas propios. Rodney Crowell compuso una nueva canción para su banda sonora. Es “The Damage”, lo primero que nos ha regalado el artista tejano tras su imponente álbum Texas de hace un año. Crecido en Greenville, Mississippi, y fascinado por el blues más tradicional y el jazz, Steve Azar estuvo de gira con Bob Seger hace años, olvidó su paso por la escena de Nashville en la segunda mitad de los 90 y se ha dedicado a concentrarse en la composición y el reencuentro con sus raíces. Su último álbum, My Mississippi Reunion,se publicará a finales de octubre cuenta con invitados como el batería, guitarrista, cantante y compositor de blues Cedric Burnside en "Coldwater". Nació en Memphis, Tennessee, es hijo del también batería de blues Calvin Jackson y nieto del guitarrista R. L. Burnside. The Waiting es un EP monumental, fruto de la incontinencia artística de un trovador tejano como Wade Bowen, uno de los sustentos esenciales de la Red Dirt Music. Después de regalarnos el segundo volumen de Hold My Beer, un disco indispensable junto a Randy Rogers, ha publicado por sorpresa seis canciones que parecen ser una primera entrega de todo lo que ha estado grabando durante los últimos meses de aislamiento. The Waiting lo componen cuatro de sus canciones aparecidas en sus álbumes en vivo que nunca había grabado en el estudio, una composición que escribió hace tiempo junto a su amigo Brent Cobb y una versión de “I Wish It Would Rain Down”, su canción favorita de Phil Collins. “Get Away” la habíamos escuchado en su segundo álbum, The Blue Light Live, grabado en directo en 2003 en la popular sala de Lubbock. Ahora, Wade Bowen y su banda la grabaron juntos en New Braunfels, Texas, y posteriormente músicos de Austin y Nashville agregaron steel, coros y teclados, enviando sus partes por correo electrónico. También llegará en octubre Forever Better Worse, la nueva apuesta de Great Peacock, el trío de Nashville que parece buscar una versión sureña del clásico Heartland rock. Se fueron a los estudios Sound Emporium de Music Row para grabar las bases fundamentales del trabajo y se recluyeron posteriormente en casa de Blount Floyd, el segundo guitarrista del grupo, para culminar con un tinte mucho más personal que en sus discos precedentes. Incluso han contado con invitados amigos como Adam Kurtz, antiguo miembro de American Aquarium, y Sadler Vaden de la 400 Unit de Jason Isbell. “Heavy Load” se nos antoja una canción expresiva del momento presente en el que la interiorización personal ha tomado el protagonismo. Es un tema de amor irrenunciable a pesar de sus dificultades. Capitalizar la herencia recibida no es una labor sencilla. Esa parece ser la tarea que se han impuesto Devon Allman y Duane Betts hijos respectivos de Gregg Allman y Dickey Betts con la Allman Betts Band, a la que también se ha unido el bajista Berry Oakley Jr. — hijo de Berry Oakley, el que fuera también miembro de The Allman Brothers Band. El año pasado debutaron con Down to the River y ahora han publicado su segundo álbum, Bless Your Heart, manteniendo evidentes guiños a ciertos acordes siempre recordados de las guitarras de la mítica banda de southern rock. Ese es el corsé que se sigue evidenciando en sus grabaciones, el estar demasiado responsabilizados por sus apellidos. El famoso “peso de la púrpura”. Y posiblemente sea ese peso el que les impide explorar con más intensidad su propia personalidad. “Rivers Run” juguetea con acordes fácilmente reconocibles y deja un regusto enternecedor, pero posiblemente el septeto tenga que aventurarse por descubrir su propio camino. La despedida del programa nos lleva de nuevo al Forum de Inglewood, cuando los Eagles, ya sin Glenn Frey actuaron durante tres días, a mediados de septiembre de 2018. Ahora se ha resumido en Live From The Forum MMXVIII que se editará el 16 de octubre en varios formatos. Al trío superviviente de la banda californiana se añadieron Deacon Frey, hijo de Glenn y Vince Gill, un músico que por sí mismo ha tejido un tapiz imponente dentro de la country music durante décadas. Y para interpretar “Lyin’ Eyes”, un tema mítico de One Of These Nights siempre ligado a Frey, que solía dedicárselo a su ex-mujer, fue Vince Gill quien se hizo cargo de la voz solista con una solvencia absoluta.

Nasir and Matt talk about the accusations surroundingfashion giant Zararipping off the designs of independent artists like Tuesday Bassen and howsmaller companies can battle the industry giants. Full Podcast Transcript NASIR: Welcome to our podcast. My name is Nasir Pasha. MATT: And I’m Matt Staub. We’re two attorneys here with Pasha Law, a firm practicing in California, Illinois, New York, and Texas. Welcome to the podcast. I don’t get the opportunity to do the bulk of the intros. NASIR: We’re splitting it up a little bit this time but welcome, everybody! This is where we take business in the news and add our legal twist to it. I think today we have a nice topic. What do we have? MATT: We have an interesting topic today. We’re going to be discussing what’s come together as a group of independent artists and designers who have all alleged that their works, intellectual property have been stolen by this huge fashion icon, Zara, which is believe is a Spanish-based company. One artist in particular – which kind of started this whole dispute that’s been going on – is Tuesday Bassen who first started off by taking action that sent a cease and desist letter to Zara and basically asked them for compensation because she was under the impression that some of her pins and patches… It’s going to be easier for us to kind of show this. We’ll put a link in the notes. People have to see for themselves but basically saying that some of her work had been essentially ripped off by this huge company and, as a result, she lost money. We know this is something a lot of business owners care about, particularly ones that we work with, I mean, being the smaller companies here. Sometimes, they have to fight these battles against the bigger ones. This is something that comes up all the time with clients or other individuals that we talk to. I think it’s going to be pretty good. We’re going to run through kind of the background here but I think it’s going to be a pretty good takeaway for these smaller companies because those are going to be the ones in this position here. NASIR: Yeah, absolutely. Thankfully, I am a fashion guru, as you said. I’ve actually shopped at Zara, I think, at least once. I assume you have not? MATT: No, I didn’t even know they sold men’s clothes until I looked them up. NASIR: Oh, I didn’t buy men’s clothes there. MATT: Okay. NASIR: But, apparently, Zara has a little bit of a reputation apparently of allegedly stealing some of these designs. Tuesday Bassen is not the first person to go after Zara for the same thing but I think her case is a little bit different and she seems to have a social media presence that is behind and I think that’s what really galvanized a response from Zara that has gone public now. MATT: Exactly. She’s really the one that has kind of kicked things off – or at least the one that gained the PR in order for other people to step up. I know there’s another one, for example, this guy named Adam Kurtz who was verified when I looked him up on Twitter so he must be a pretty big deal in the industry as well. But, yes, Tuesday, she started things off by sending this cease and desist letter to Zara. As far as we know, we don’t know the exact. NASIR: Yeah, we couldn’t find the exact letter but I think we know how much she paid for it. She paid $2,000 but we don’t know what exactly it said. MATT: Yeah, the pertinent information is just how much she paid an attorney to write it and not what was actually in there. NASIR: Not a bad price, by the way. MATT: I mean, we have a good idea what was in there. Basically, I’m assuming she kind of asserted that she owns these works and Zara is infringing upon them by straight up ripping them off. I assume maybe she had asked for some sort of compensation for them to stop doing it – something to that effect is my guess. She can send me that bill for $2,000 now as well since I just… NASIR: Anyone could have wrote—no, that’s true. No, absolutely,

The pedal steel guitar is usually an instrument reserved for country and western music. Its complicated, pitch-changing levers and pedals, volume swells and lack of frets gives the high and lonesome music of rural America its distinctive weepy sound. But some artists push the instrument into new territory, notably uber-producer Daniel Lanois, who creates lush soundscapes with his ethereal pedal steel playing. The Los Angeles based band, First Circuit, falls somewhere in between. At its heart, the band's sound is reminiscent of a lot of British bands in your record collection... maybe a less experimental Radiohead or more muscular Coldplay. But it is their use of pedal steel that sets them apart from other would-be British pop rock emulators. First Circuit's pedal steel guitarist, Kevin Milner, juxtaposes his fairly traditional steel playing with singer Adam Kurtz' adventurous songwriting and the result is a pleasing blend that just makes sense.
