Of Muses & MixesTheresa Andersson's 'Street Parade' Steps Off Today With her new album Street Parade out today, local musician Theresa Andersson chats about her ride in Muses, going viral and offers a playlist of some of the songs that inspire her. Mark GrowdenMusic Playlist Series A multi-instrumentalist to the core, Mark Growden has not only mastered banjo and accordion, but he's also fluent in bicycle handlebars and the sruti box. Honey Island Swamp BandMusic Playlist Series Normally, Honey Island Swamp Band can be found on the stages of our local festivals, or on tour across the country. But, today, they take a break from their busy playing schedule to let us know what they're listening to. Washboard ChazAudio Filé: Alt-Fest Favorite's Celebrity Music Playlist Hola Nola- and hola Charles Leary, aka Washboard Chaz. The frequent whistler whose washboard has many bells serves as the likeness and inspiration for a Bywater festival set for tomorrow. Anamanaguchi's Playlist By Ary Warnaar Hola Nola- and hola video game instrumentors Anamanaguchi. Peter Berkman, James DeVito, Ary Warnaar, and Luke Silas make ‘chiptune punk’, music created from outdated technological consoles, from computers to gameboys- and it’s as raw as digital gets. Hola Nola: Vol XLVIIJazzfest Cube Critique Hola Nola, and hola the first non-celebrity music mixtape in weeks. The original Hola Nola hop skip and jump is back to address the announcing of the cubes - the Jazzfest cubes, that is. The schedule is out for this year's fete at the Fair Grounds, and decisions must be made. The following playlist goes through my top two choices per day, and the sacrifices that will need to be made when circling (in pencil) the who/what/where from April 29th-May 8th. Dee-1Hola Nola: A Celebrity Mixtape Series- Vol X The up-and-coming local rapper offers ten songs that inspire him. Ra Ra RiotHola Nola: A Celebrity Mixtape Series- Vol VIII Hola Nola- and hola Syracuse Stringin’, Indie pop singin’ Ra Ra Riot. These folks are off and running after a demo, four EPS, and two hit full lengths, numerous smash singles (not to mention honorable remixes of such tunes, aka Passion Pit’s ‘Ghost Under Rocks’ edit) feature film soundtrack fame, oh, and a country-wide tour. Lucky for us, the next stop is Foburg, TONIGHT. The Hood InternetHola Nola: A Celebrity Mixtape Series- Vol VI Hola Nola- and Hola Chi-town mashup duo ‘Steve Sleeve’ Reidell Aaron Brink, aka The Hood Internet. With close to 200 remixes to their name, the pair have established a name for themselves.
