Kurt Vile & The Violators and Mary Lattimore & Meg Baird at Kantine, Cologne, Germany, Nov '18

Avid Kurt Vile fan that I am, I have been looking forward to see Kurt Vile & The Violators performing live again in my vicinity for the past six months now. The anticipation was made all the more glorious when the support act was announced: Mary Lattimore & Meg Baird. A veritable feast so to speak and I will of course let you know how this festive occasion turned out, so join me for a review and more blathering on Kurt Vile & The Violators and Mary Lattimore & Meg Baird at Kantine, Cologne, Germ

Recommended: New albums by Elkhorn, Mary Lattimore and Prana Crafter

Oh, I haven’t been here for a while if you’ll forgive me. So, very quickly, I’d like to share some new releases with you. Make no mistake, the following albums are not to be listened to on the go or even in separate pieces/tracks. They can and they will stand that test but contrary to today’s fashion, these are albums that should be enjoyed as a whole and in peace and quiet and they will reward you manifold with undiscovered worlds of their own. Please feel free and enter. Recommended: New album

Mary Lattimore gig review

Mary Lattimore gig review

Mary Lattimore from Philadelphia travelled our shores with Great Lake Swimmers after the release of her new album “At The Dam” (Ghostly International) that is spinning in the Offbeat household non-stop and was so perfectly prescribed by someone writing in to BBC Radio 6 that I cannot but quote it: “Preparing for a holiday, listening to “At The Dam” which was inspired by her experiences on tour. What could be more perfect?” Mary Lattimore is one busy woman and it is not an easy feat to travel t

In one of the past blog posts I had posted an interview that Great Lake Swimmers‘ Tony Dekker kindly gave me and also highly recommended you to go see them on tour. And here comes more: Great Lake Swimmers gig review and interview The three-week tour through Europe with Mary Lattimore has now come to an end and I had the opportunity (thank you Phil Klygo from weewerk!) to see them play and have another short conversation. So, it was Friday, May 6th, one of the first warm days after a very co

Interview with Great Lake Swimmers

Be aware, Great Lake Swimmers might be somewhere near you right now. Offbeat music was kindly granted an interview with Great Lake Swimmers. Please see below and read about and listen to the band a bit before, also about their support act Mary Lattimore and their tour dates together. Great Lake Swimmers from currently Toronto, Canada, have released their sixth album “A Forest Of Arms” to much acclaim spoiling us with 12 songs of sheer beauty with apparent ease. After a foray into a “studio a

Mary Lattimore & Jeff Zeigler Interview

Somewhere I read that only real music nerds into a certain kind of music who have a pastime of perusing credits will have heard of Mary Lattimore & Jeff Zeigler. In my humble opinion, anyone who listens to music could not fail to come across the two lately. Mary Lattimore is a harpist who plays her extraordinary instrument with virtuosity beyond all genres. She played with Thurston Moore, Kurt Vile & The Violators, Sharon van Etten, Meg Baird, to name but a few. She also released her EP The Wi
