INTERVIEWS AND CONCERTS FOR THE WEEK

Monday 04/14
AN INTERVIEW WITH BALMORHEA
Modern chamber music from the American heartland

Balmorhea is a quartet of musicians that should probably be playing rock and roll, and in their own fashion, they might be. Using acoustic guitars, piano, violin and cello, they orchestrate a haunting, pastoral sound tinged by country and born out of the landscapes of Texas.

COVER TUNES & ROCK REFUGEES
Echoes Rocks

Some musicians burn out on the rock scene and disappear while others take their music into new directions. We'll be hearing some of those artists including the singer and guitarist from Flesh for Lulu, a bassist who played with Frank Zappa and 80s electro-pop darlings Missing Persons, and a current Madonna back-up singer. It's cover tunes and rock refugees on Echoes.

RE-BREATHING AIR
French electro-duo celebrates 10th Anniversary of Moon Safari

It's been a decade since Air released their debut album, Moon Safari. That modest release has had echoes that continue a decade later with artists like Zero 7, Goldfrapp and many more taking notes from Air's retro music for the future. Pulling sounds from old Moog synthesizers, Fender Rhodes pianos and vocoders, Air articulated a mix of cocktail cool and serenely surreal pop that hasn't dated a second. Moon Safari has just been re-released in a deluxe 10th Anniversary Edition. We go back to our 1998 interview with Air and see how prescient they were about their music.
