Welcome to the Driftless Music website! Orient yourself by taking a look around to get a better idea of who I am, what I do, and the music I care so much about. Better yet, join the mailing list and subscribe to my RSS feed--there will be plenty of relevant news and content to come in the future and, if you're reading this right now, you'll certainly want to stay in the loop. The whole idea here is to establish an entertainment destination for myself and the Driftless Music artists to share content, engage fans of progressive & inspired folk / alternative / experimental music, and to--of course--speak our minds. I am looking forward to what 2010 will bring and have lots of exciting projects to share with you in the coming days, weeks, and months.
A few things on the horizon right now:
- Michelle Lynn's third album Pre-Echoes for the Postmodern has hit the streets! CDbaby and local retail distribution is on the way, but you can stream the entire album, as well as purchase a bundled physical CD / digital download package, in her MUSIC STORE right now! Pre-Echoes... is a big step forward for Michelle spiritually and creatively; a truly cohesive and holistic artistic expression. She will be returning to the Driftless region (from sabbatical in Austin, TX) in March and already has shows lined up: March 20th at the Root Note in La Crosse, April 22 at Acadia Cafe in Minneapolis, and April 23 at the Saint Paul Eagles Club.
- My weekly podcast featuring music and conversations with Driftless Music artists. You can subscribe and listen via RSS or the iTunes music store. You can also listen right in your web browser by clicking HERE. The first episode is part of a 14 episode series where Michelle Lynn and I talk in-depth about her new album Pre-Echoes for the Postmodern and her life as an independent artist. Click HERE to listen to episode one!
- Brahman Shaman will be releasing his new album Animist in the coming weeks. It will be a double album that includes two discs with ten tracks on each. A podcast series with Brahman Shaman is also in the works.
- Imaginary Jack is in the studio right now recording an EP with Darren Jackson (of the Hopefuls and Kid Dakota). Look for a release and regional tour from them in the coming months!
- I will be booking and presenting music under the Driftless Music banner at the Acadia Cafe in Minneapolis, MN on the third Friday of every month starting with February 19th! The Acadia Cafe has to be the most welcoming, comfortable, and unpretentious space to see live music in the Twin Cities. It is an asset to the local music community. I am VERY excited about this series.
- Other projects on my radar include: the new Brilliant Beasts EP coming out, uploading and publishing Rearview Mirror's video archive on the Driftless Website, and promoting The Objective Subject's debut album.
Here's to the New Year and all the opportunities that lie ahead!
Be Well,
Adam
