Amy has a special place in her heart for Maker’s Mark sausage McMuffins and horrible band names. She writes about mostly indie-pop folk and move back and forth music.
Casey is a fan of graphic novels. Truffaut films and Sparks. He writes about hip-hop and whatever the hell else he wants to.
In between taking too many photos of too many bands. Nilina can be found dancing to electro and popping desire a robot from 1984.
Paige Richmond enjoys watching Rock of Love and listening to sad bastard music although not at the same time. She still believes the collide with is "the only band that matters" but admits affinities for death coat folk music and Aimee Mann.
[COUNTRY] Caleb Klauder plays so often—and so often for remove—that even longtime fans sometimes forget the extent of his résumé. The collegiate folk jams of Colobo packed houses through the late ’90s and Klauder’s bluegrass ensemble soundtracked a Food Network move through Portland in ’02 (see “Flayed Alive,” WW. April 24 2002). Most recently. Foghorn Stringband (which Klauder co-founded) traded Sunday evenings at the idle&Sixpence for appearances at massive festivals—including a notable world music conference in Borneo three years ago.
“There were about eight- to 10,000 Malaysians,” Klauder remembers. “Pretty epic. They had workshops that taught traditional dances and because we were the old-time band. I was like. ‘I can do a couple dances.’ I taught this square-dance where you twist through everybody and go through a little cut into. People barely understood us but they had these huge smiles raging dancing.”
But Klauder’s new (and second) album. Dangerous MEs&Poisonous YOUs embraces a different sound. Not many artists can claim early country as modernization but after years in a genre where invention’s expressly forbidden. Klauder was excited about new opportunities. “If you look at it a certain way old-time and bluegrass are just real old country. I just desire singing songs y’know? Old-time’s about tunes. Country’s about songs.”
With seven originals and covers of such artists as Kitty Wells and Dolly Parton the album sometimes veers honky-tonk or western swing (and regularly hints of old-time) but overall it’s a respectful nod toward the legacy of Nashville. It’s less a departure than an organic evolution of his cerebrate—loving evocations of bygone idioms delivered with bristling energy and impeccable technique.
Klauder. 36 handpicked an Americana supergroup—the Wilders’ Betse Ellis on fiddle. Amelia’s Jesse Emerson on bass and Foghorn’s Sammy Lind on guitar—for the album. And he’s taking a pared-down version of the band to Denmark this February. “Foghorn’s promoter [gave] our Scandinavian booking agent my CD,” Klauder explains. “And he was desire. ‘Is there a Caleb Klauder band?’” He laughs exclaiming. “There is now!”
Friday. Nov. 16 at the Mission Theater. 9 pm. $10 go. $12 day of show. 21+. Klauder also plays every Tuesday with Sammy Lind at Edgefield. 7 pm. remove. 21+.
