FAVORITE ARTISTS

Quartet Parapluie
www.quartetparapluie.com

Performing together since 2001, the members of the quartet have broadened their repertoire and experience through recording for rock albums and movie soundtracks, presenting traditional classical concerts and premiering new works. Quartet Parapluie’s favorite and most recent project has been performing for the Friday night crowd at Danny’s, a popular bar in the Bucktown neighborhood of Chicago.

Cap'n Jazz
www.myspace.com/capnjazz1

Short-lived but highly influential, Cap'n Jazz helped transform emo from a deeply underground punk subgenre into a more widely accepted subset of indie rock. With only one full-length album to their name alongside a handful of singles and compilation tracks, Cap’n Jazz left a longstanding impression and irrefutable influence on the region’s bohemian punk scene and unwittingly spawned a breeding ground for future scene stars such as the Promise Ring and Joan Of Arc.

Lesser Scene
www.myspace.com/thelesserscene

"...This is Chicago indie rock of the old school, before the whole vibraphone crowd showed up and ruined everything...The band comes across very much as a collection of different voices rather than the ranting platform of any one demagogue even across a too-brief five songs..."

Make Believe
www.myspace.com/makebelieve

Some beautiful, passionate music from great friends. Always too much for words………………

Modest Mouse
www.modestmousemusic.com

Isaac Brock has Modest Mouse sounding tighter and better than ever, with help from a fattened up and familiar lineup, and the formidable addition of guitarist Johnny Marr. The songs are focused, mature, and dare I say, catchy while still maintaining the integrity of classic Brock piss and vinegar. Brock’s lyrics have always been the clincher for me, and this time is no exception.

Moe
www.moe.org

Led Zeppelin, Steely Dan and Gram Parsons... from hard rock to melodic country, moe can write songs and they can play the bejesus out of them live

Satellite Party
www.satelliteparty.com

Perry Ferrel's new project, Satellite Party, is an alternative rock band conceived by former Jane's Addiction and Porno for Pyros frontman Perry Farrell following the demise of his former band in 2004.
