Podcasts about Paper Bird

British folk musicians Kathryn Tickell, Laura Cannell, Amy Thatcher and Ruth Lyon discuss their musical and personal identities, the music they made when they were younger, and whether or not place affects the music they create. Kathryn Tickell is from the North Tyne Valley of Northumberland and comes from a musical family of pipers, singers, fiddlers and accordion players. She took up the Northumbrian small pipes at the age of nine, and began learning tunes from old shepherd friends and family. Her work has evolved to traverse jazz, and music from around the world, to large-scale orchestral works. She has released 15 of her own albums to date, and has recorded and performed with Evelyn Glennie, the London Sinfonietta, Sting, and many others. In 2015 she was awarded an OBE for services to folk music. Laura Cannell is a composer and violinist whose music straddles the worlds of experimental, folk, chamber and medieval music. She came to prominence with her debut album, Quick Sparrows over the Black Earth, and is known for her compositions that draw on the emotional influences of landscapes, and explore the spaces between ancient and experimental music. She's also the founder of independent record label Brawl Records, and is curator of the Modern Ritual performance series. Amy Thatcher is one of the UK's leading folk accordionists, who's based in the North East of England. Her first album, Paper Bird, was recorded when she was just 16 years old, and she released her first album proper, Solo, in 2019. She's worked with the likes of the Royal Northern Sinfonia and Sting. Ruth Lyon is a folk and chamber-pop artist who has established herself as a key member of the music scene in Newcastle, UK. She grew up in the countryside of the North York Moors, inheriting a love of the outdoors as well as a sense of melancholy from the landscape, something that is instilled in the music she creates. Her most recent EP, Direct Debit to Vogue, showcases her soulful vocals and her witty, raw lyricism, expressing the power in fragility and the beauty in imperfection.

In this final conversation in the mini series about big emotions in creative living, you will hear from children's book author and illustrator, Lisa Anchin with her recently released work, The Paper Bird. Lisa sheds light on how book making is a hugely collaborative process and the way she works with her publishing team. She speaks to the role that self-doubt plays in her creative process and her approach to break out of the cycle of self-doubt (hint: make more stuff!). Lisa ends this episode by reading The Paper Bird and purely by coincidence, actual birds arrived as she began reciting her story and offered their sing-song gifts to the recording. Magical! 

Ben once worked at an Air Bnb cooking for 12 people alongside Annalise Gregory and Marco Pierre White. When I asked him why on earth would they pay all these chefs to cook for so little people, he responded ‘I dunno, to see what you could do with too much money I guess?'. And when we reflected on our experience in hospitality, it seems as though that statement could be thrown around a lot.  We talk about Ben's wildest experience as a chef which was celebrating down in Melbourne for the Financial Review, to which he vividly remembers haggling Andrew McConnel before heading back into the crowd. We talk about opening and closing venues like Moon Park, catering gastro's of Apple Terrines for the Australian Open and why bougie venues like Vue De Monde and Shell House probably feel homely to some very very rich people.  It's a great lighthearted chat that follows Ben's career highlights all the way to now but it's important to note that I talked to Ben back in December 2021, and since then he has finished up his time at Ezra. I hope you enjoy the chat. The Roots Hospitality podcast is proudly supported by Sydney Direct Fresh Produce.

Heavy Diamond Ring is a new project from Sarah Anderson and Paul DeHaven, founders of the Colorado folk band Paper Bird. The band finds the musicians continuing their 12 year collaboration after Paper Bird's split in 2017. Heavy Diamond Ring celebrates the release of its debut album with a June 7 show at Denver's Larimer Lounge, presented by OpenAir. Heavy Diamond Ring stopped into the CPR Performance Studio to play three songs from the album. The band members also spoke with Alisha Sweeney about why they love writing songs together, filming a music video in Ohio and recording with producer Mark Anderson, Sarah's brother and a former Paper Bird member.

Extra Gold released its debut album, "High & Lonesome," late last year. Evan Holm fronts the Denver country-western band and draws on his experiences living in Kansas City and across Colorado on the record's eight tracks. Extra Gold stopped into the CPR Performance Studio to play four songs from "High & Lonesome." Holm also spoke with Alisha Sweeney about how the band came together from a weekly residence at Denver's Syntax Physic Opera, working with producer and former Paper Bird member Mark Anderson, and the band's busy summer schedule.

Paul DeHaven has visited the CPR Performance Studio on several occasions, both as a member of Paper Bird and Eye & The Arrow. Earlier this month the Colorado musician released his debut solo album, "King of Gold." DeHaven performed three songs from "King of Gold" in our studio accompanied by guitarist Blake Stepan. He also spoke with Bruce Trujillo about scrapping the first batch of songs he wrote for the album, how Paper Bird's breakup affected his music career and why he loves putting out music on cassette tape.

It seems the Japanese style katsu sando has made its way across the seas to settle on Australian menus. This sandwich has definitely made a big impression, so Jane de Graaff has sought help from Chef Ben Seers, to cook it at home. Ben and his wife Eun Hee Ann are the brains behind Paper Bird, which features the katsu sando on their brunch menu. After one bite of this tasty delight, you will never look at sandwiches the same way again.

Jen Jackson talks openly and honestly about growing up in Perth, life as a child physiatrist, her decision to return to Perth having moved away, motherhood and how she took the opportunity presented to her with all 3 children in primary school, to reimagine herself in a new career as a children's bookshop owner Paper Bird. There’s loads in this conversation about reading to your children (whatever age), completing with market forces and letting a business evolve organically based on instinct and what feels right.

David McGuinness has frequently taken his sourdough starter on holidays with him to keep it alive. "You have to feed it regularly, like a baby," he says. This dedication to bread is not surprising, given that he's the co-founder of Bourke Street Bakery, the Sydney institution that is loved for everything from its chocolate ganache tarts to its meat pies (Amy Schumer famously stopped by, straight from the airport, to try one during her Trainwreck press tour). Along with the bakery's co-founder, Paul Allam, David has co-authored two baking bibles – the original Bourke Street Bakery publication was even released in Russia, where it was called Streets of Bread. The new book, All Things Sweet, is dedicated to Bourke Street Bakery's much-loved desserts – such as the ginger brûlée tart (David shares the lovely story behind that on the podcast – and tells of the key role it played in how he met his partner). Bourke Street Bakery has come a long way from the days when its chefs had to teeter on milk crates to stir 120-litre pots filled with pie mix. There's its social enterprise, The Bread and Butter Project, which trains refugees to become bakers – which was inspired by the time Paul taught nuns in a refugee camp how to bake. Then there's the impressive Bourke Street Bakery family tree – which has seen former BSB graduates branch out and do their own thing (like Paul Giddings with The Bread Social, Simon Cancio with Brickfields, Nadine Ingram with Flour and Stone and Andrew Cibej with Vini, Berta and Bacco). And there's a New York branch of Bourke Street Bakery on the way, too. Plus, we chat about David's best bread experiences (including “one of the most memorable meals, ever” in Kuala Lumpur), some of the unforgettable responses he's had from Bourke Street Bakery fans, and why he wanted the team from Moon Park to open Paper Bird, their new restaurant, in the former Potts Point branch for BSB.   PS In case you're curious, the Tokyo bakery I mention in the podcast is called Kaiso.   Suggested listening from the podcast archive: Ben Sears, Kylie Millar, Christina Tosi, Andrew Bowden (Andy Bowdy), Mike McEnearney, Lauren Eldridge.

The Guestlist last visited CPR's OpenAir in 2015, then known as Josh Moorehead & The Guestlist. Since the name change, the band has released the new album "Racing, Chasing." The six-piece crafts an exciting blend of jazz and Americana-rock on the new record, which explores themes of creative struggle. The Guestlist performed four songs from "Racing, Chasing" in the CPR Performance Studio. The members also spoke with Alisha Sweeney about the band's name change, recording at the new Denver studio Hum House and collaborating with members of Denver band Paper Bird on the new LP.

"The band gave me an ultimatum actually. They said 'either don't make your own music anymore and have all your time in Paper Bird, or leave the group' because they wanted everybody to be like fully committed. And I was just like, that's a no-brainer for me."

Iron & Wine, Tift Merritt, Andy Shauf, Todd Burge & Paper Bird perform on NPR Music & West Virginia Public Broadcasting's Mountain Stage. Episode 885 recorded live at the Culture Center Theater in Charleston, West Virginia.

Esmé Patterson has performed in the CPR Performance Studio several times over the past five years. Her latest session marked a milestone: the 400th performance we've recorded for OpenAir Sessions. The Colorado native this year released her third studio album, "We Were Wild." It's an introspective album that reflects on her recent 30th birthday and leaving her former band Paper Bird. It's also the first she recorded outside Colorado, in her new home of Portland, Ore. Patterson performed four songs from "We Were Wild" in our studio. She spoke with Alisha Sweeney about the subject matter of the new album, the contrast between Portland and Denver, and getting whiplash while filming a recent music video.

Denver band Paper Bird returned this week to the CPR Performance Studio. We first hosted the band's retooled lineup -- with new member Carleigh Atkins, who replaced singer-songwriter Esme Patterson -- back in 2014, and today the band releases its new self-titled album. Paper Bird recorded the LP in Nashville with producer John Oates of Hall & Oates. It finds the band moving away from folk and into rock 'n' roll. The band played four songs from the album and spoke with Alisha Sweeney about how a personnel change affected the band's sound, releasing their music through a record label for the first time and why this new album feels like a fresh start.

Lillian Soderman -- who performs simply as Lillian -- has a lot of musical friends in Colorado. That's a big reason she moved back to the Centennial state from California to record her new EP, "Desert Song." The release features members of Denver bands Inner Oceans and Paper Bird, but it's Soderman who is front and center on its five songs. The music features sparse folk arrangements that allow her breezy vocals to shine but often move into dream-rock crescendos. Lillian stopped into the CPR Performance Studio before her show tonight at Larimer Lounge. She performed three songs from the EP with her band and spoke with Jeremy Petersen about recording at Denver's Mammoth Cave Studio, how her sound has changed over the past five years and her time working as a counselor for homeless youth.

Powerful people in this state do not believe climate change is a real or imminent threat. Among them: State Sen. Kevin Lundberg of Berthoud, a ranking Republican. He reached out to Colorado Matters after hearing our climate change coverage, and had a very different story to tell. He appeared on the program with a climate scientist from Colorado State University. Then, this election year we're following two Coloradans who are running for office for the first time. They spent the summer knocking on doors and marching in parades. Plus, Colorado folk act Paper Bird gets a reboot with new talent and a new sound.

Eye & The Arrow brings a different musical direction with each visit to OpenAir's studio. The Denver trio, which features two members of folk-rock band Paper Bird, visited in 2012 and 2013, but neither performance was quite like the one they gave us earlier this month. They performed three songs from the forthcoming EP and spoke with Alisha Sweeney about the real-life "ghost" tapes that inspired the record and working with John Oates of Hall & Oates in Nashville. The band is set to release the new cassette EP "Ghost Tapes," with a performance on May 27 at Globe Hall.

I was gone. I was just, hiding in my basement, depressed, for 3 to 6 months. I was just like, so mentally fried. This week I had Scott Labarbera on the patio. Scott is the owner and operator of Tennyson District's Oriental Theater (one of my personal favorite venues in Denver). Under Scott's wing, The Oriental has become a staple of live music and comedy in Denver and is one of the few remaining privately owned and operated theaters in town. Scott's story is one of determination and resilience. He shares with us his fascinating tale of what it took to walk away from a successful business in search of creative fulfillment. He talks of the highs, the lows and every bit in-between that one experiences in their pursuit of happiness. Personally, I get inspired by people like Scott, people that are willing to risk it all in order to search for something more in life. The song for this episode is from the band Paper Bird (who are good friends with The Oriental Theater) and is called As I Am, from their album Rooms.

Billy Conway, who played drums in my parents’ band, and the rock band Morphine, took me aside one night and asked me when I was going to start writing my own songs. I thought that was a pretty good question.” So Reed got to work, and in his late teens.After a move to Colorado, Reed’s clear tenor, emotional songwriting, and undeniable charisma as a front man launched Acoustic Junction in 1989, which developed a cult following in the jam- band era of the 90s. The band released six albums, a collaboration with Graham Nash, and was signed to Capricorn Records and later Mercury Records. Reed found a new kind of success in short trips once or twice a year to Los Angeles, New York and Nashville that earned him placements on the silver screen, television, and commercials. Heput what money he could from the royalties to make three solo records: Spark (2004), Stoned Beautiful (2007), and Once an Ocean (2009) Country legend Lee Ann Womack’s September 2014 release leads with his song “Fly.”Lost in the West is a soundtrack for the invisible cinema of the mind. It features seven songs combining Reed’s powerful lyrics and vocal performance set against wide-open landscapes painted with Stratocaster and Wurlitzer. A deeply talented and accomplished cast joins Reed as producers, performers, and co-writers on this record.  John also delivers a masterful performance on percussion, and Jefferson’s varied guitar work shines throughout the record. Anaïs Mitchel  sings on “Rags and Bones” and “Four Lanes.” Frazey Ford appears on “Caroline” and “Steal Away.” Reed co-wrote “Caroline” with Esmé Patterson, founding member of Paper Bird, and he teamed with Gregory Alan Isakov to write “Rodeo Clown.”The choices Reed has made earned him the respect of his industry peers on one hand, and his loved-ones on the other. 

Flash fiction is the novel condensed into a poem; it is the left jab of literature. This episode features flash fiction from Nancy Stohlman, Kona Morris, Jack C. Buck  and the host Levi Andrew Noe. Our musical guest is the one, the only Eye and the Arrow, with members of Paper Bird. They're a psychedlic rock, country-blues, indie-rock infused trio, and just you try and define them.

First Stramash of 2012 featuring excellent chat with Ballet Nouveau Colorado Artistic Director Garrett Ammon about his recent project Love In A Digital Age. Also music by Decade In Exile, Hollywoodfun Downstairs, Paper Bird, Odjbox, Nheap and C418.
