Hear Live music from Sasquatch Festival this weekend – webcast with Wilco, Foo Fighters, The Decemberists, and more

I love that technology gives us the the ability to hear live concerts via the web. While it used to be the domain of radio to broadcast shows as they happened, it now either Sirius/XM or music websites that carry most of these events. And they do a better job than radio has done in the past 25 years.
And our friends at NPR shift lots of shows to their website, including this weekend’s Sasquatch! Music Festival at The Gorge Amphitheater in George,WA.
You can hear bands that just stopped by Indy (Old 97’s), a preview of those that will be here soon (The Decemberists, Iron and Wine) and many Americana/rock bands that won’t (Wilco, Foo Fighters). The festival runs from Saturday (May 28) through Monday night (late night for Indiana, since it is on the West coast)
So drop by, tune in and rock out. Tell them NUVO sent you.

New Album Releases – Week of April 5

Spinning the Digital Disc: New Album Releases
Tuesday, April 6:
Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings – “I Learned The Hard Way” – Retro-soul, in the tradition of mid to late ’60s and early ’70s Motown, Stax, and the Philly sound.
Jakob Dylan – “Women and Country” – Country and spare roots ballads on love and life in tough times. Neko Case helps out.
Murder By Death – “Good Morning, Magpie” – from NUVO’s Scott Shoger’s review: “The band moves easily between genres and textures, from the mariachi horns of ‘On the Dark Streets Below’ (echoes of ‘Ring of Fire’) to the cello and singing saw duet on ‘Good Morning, Magpie,’ the hellish cabaret of ‘You Don’t Miss Twice’ to the rumbling, metallic drone anchoring ‘White Noise.’” (read full review)
Jeff Healey Band – “Last Call” – Final album from late blind guitarist; jazzy and some swing.
David Byrne & Fatboy Slim – “Here Lies Love” – Odd little pairing of two pretty big names, plus Tori Amos, Steve Earle make appearances.
Peter Wolf – “Midnight Souvenirs” – J. Geils Band frontman with an album that does him proud. R&B and rock done well. Merle Haggard sings a duet.
Bodeans – “Mr. Sad Clown” – Roots harmony rock and roll, recorded in Austin, with Kurt Nuemann and Sammy Llanas on all the instruments for most of the record, though a couple tracks have horns added. No big surprises; sturdy Bodeans music.

Trampled By Turtles – “Palomino”
