And dig this cover of Arthur Lee and Love’s ‘A House Is Not a Motel’, which was just released on 7″ on Record Store Day on Black Tent Press…
It’s kind of an awesome story that Nicole and I met over our love for Swedish psychedelic folk-rock. After the guys from Life On Earth! played live on BBiB a couple months ago, we walked outside the EVR booth and found Nicole Atkins there waiting to talk to Mattias and Martin, whom she had met when recording an album in Sweden a couple years ago…and whose music she loves.
Well, after meeting, I looked up some of Nicole’s work and found that she’s an absolutely badass singer and equally badass songwriter and that you all needed to hear her play live on Beyond Beyond is Beyond on East Village Radio. So that’s what’s goin’ down on Thursday at noon. You’ll want to hear this! Not to mention, Nicole’s bringing along her slide guitar player.
Here’s a couple Amazon reviewer quotes about Nicole that I love:
This is how songs should be constructed and arranged. She’s the Mozart of our time. – J.K. Peffers, Denver
…a cross between Janis Joplin and Fiona Apple, with a twist of 50′s retro and a sprinkle of goth for seasoning. – Erik F., Boston
On Neptune City, Jersey girl Nicole Atkins summons the iconographic spirits of Bruce Springsteen, Roy Orbison, Loretta Lynn, lets them live inside her, and proceeds to transcend them into what we hear on this record. In this genre-less record of darkly psychedelic Jersey-shore romanticism, Nicole Atkins throws her hat into that ring of artists managing to straddle the fence-line between indie and mainstream credibility and ends up being sucessful in this pursuit. - K. Porter, Austin
