When Stephen Kellogg\u2019s new album comes out in a few months, it will be N-E-W-S.<\/p>\n<p>Kellogg, who will be performing on November 12 at the Ardmore Music Hall (23 East Lancaster Avenue, Ardmore, 610-649-8389,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ardmoremusic.com\/\">www.ardmoremusic.com<\/a>), is releasing a double album with a very different concept. Kellogg\u2019s new album will have four parts \u2014 North, East, West and South.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI just made a new record,\u201d said Kellogg, during a phone interview last week. \u201cThis one is interesting. I recorded it in four different regions with four different producers and four different sets of musicians.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI did a Pledge Music campaign for it because I still need a studio to record in and that costs a bundle. You\u2019ve got to roll with what is going on. I\u2019m going to still produce vinyl and CDs but I also want to adapt. There is money to be generated by streaming. But, it\u2019s great to get something out there that we can own.<a href=\"http:\/\/www.unionvilletimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/kellogg-at-ardmore.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-1221339\" src=\"http:\/\/www.unionvilletimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/kellogg-at-ardmore.jpg\" alt=\"kellogg at ardmore\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe album comes out in February. It\u2019s a weird thing.\u00a0 We\u2019re going to send it to the pledgers soon but it\u2019s not out on iTunes or Amazon yet. We sent it out a few weeks ago to a couple thousand fans who made it happen. They can handle a 20-song record.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThen, we\u2019ll stream one track a month until it comes out in February. The recording is great. There are four parts &#8212; two CDs with four sides. The songs are all quite different. It\u2019s all me but each genre is different.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Southern rock flavor of\u00a0\u201cSouth,\u201d which was recorded in Nashville and Atlanta and co-produced by\u00a0Travis McNabb, is followed by the cowboy vibe of \u201cWest,\u201d which was recorded on a farm in Boulder, Colorado and co-produced by\u00a0Gregory Alan Isakov. \u201cNorth,\u201d which was recorded in a cabin in Woodstock, New York, is the third piece and the album ends with \u201cEast,\u201d which was recorded in Washington, DC).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere really is a Southern rock feel to \u2018South\u2019,\u201d said Kellogg. \u201cWe recorded that part last January. \u201cIn early February, we went to a cabin in Woodstock to record with Josh Kaufmann. We were there during an ice storm. The music is the closest thing I have to being an indie rock album.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe did \u2018East\u2019 in Washington, D.C. It\u2019s the pop section. Things were a little less organized during that session. We did \u2018West\u2019 with Gregory in a studio in Boulder. You could describe it as cowboy songs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I was thinking about making a new album, I thought about something concept-based with different sections &#8212; something I could do in different genres. Making this music helped me know where my heart is. I found a sense for the road I want to walk down. I don\u2019t care about a genres &#8212; I care about messages.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow, I\u2019m touring with a great band &#8212; an awesome five piece. A third of the set will be songs from the new album, a third will be from my last album \u2018Blunderstone\u2019 and a third will be greatest hits.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Video link for Stephen Kellogg &#8212;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?feature=player_embedded&amp;v=6SFOP0Z-3_I.\" target=\"_blank\"> https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?feature=player_embedded&amp;v=6SFOP0Z-3_I.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The show at Ardmore, which features Miranda Mulholland (of Great Lake Swimmers) and Brooks Hubbard as the opening acts, will begin at 8 p.m. Tickets are $30.<a href=\"http:\/\/www.unionvilletimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/toadies.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" size-full wp-image-1221341 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/www.unionvilletimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/toadies.jpg\" alt=\"toadies\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>On November 13, the venue in Ardmore will host Toadies, who are out on an album release tour for their new disc \u201cHeretics.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Toadies<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>kicked off their\u00a0Heretics\u00a0headline tour with a\u00a0run of historic Texas dancehalls and then set out on a cross-country headline tour. Classic tracks\u00a0\u201cPossum Kingdom,\u201d \u201cTyler,\u201d\u00a0\u201cBackslider\u201d\u00a0and others are reworked with new instrumentation and arrangements.<\/p>\n<p>The band from Fort Worth, Texas features Vaden Todd Lewis on vocals and guitar, Mark Reznicek on drums, Doni Blair on bass and Clark Vogeler on lead guitar and backing vocals.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHeretics,\u201d which is out now on Kirtland Records, is a collection of re-worked Toadies fan\u00a0favorites and new tracks. The album also features two new songs and a cover of\u00a0 Blondie\u2019s classic hit \u201cHeart of Glass.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis album is Toadies stripped-down and distilled &#8212; and also dressed up,\u201d said Vogeler, during a phone interview last week from his home in the Lone Star State. \u201cWe took songs to their basic elements to see if they still held up.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The idea to do a deconstructed record was born at the band\u2019s annual \u201cDia De Los Toadies\u00a0Festival,\u201d\u00a0which just celebrated its eighth year in the band\u2019s hometown of Fort Worth. The first night of the festival\u00a0traditionally sees the Toadies playing a stripped-down chill set.<\/p>\n<p>If you go back a dozen years, the thought of Toadies performing on the road in 2015 would be an alien notion. They got their start in Fort Worth in 1989 and released their \u201cRubberneck\u201d album in 1994 and their \u201cHell Below\/Stars Above\u201d album in 2001. In the middle of 2001, the band broke up.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were all very exhausted,\u201d said Vogeler. \u201cWe were signed to Interscope Records. We spent five years making \u2018Hell Below\/Stars Above\u2019 and, a few weeks after it was released, we realized Interscope didn\u2019t give a shit about the album or about us. It capped it off when our original bass player quit.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In 2006, toadies sprung back to life.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen Toadies broke up, the singer started another band with his friends but he got frustrated with that band,\u201d said Vogekler. \u201cHe started writing songs that sounded like Toadies songs. He called me and the drummer to play. When we started playing, it was fun. Strangely, there were people who still wanted to see the band.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBefore we officially decided to get back full-time, we got invited to play a gig in Dallas &#8212; the St. Patrick\u2019s Day concert &#8212; and 13,000 people showed up to hear us play. In Texas, it\u2019s different. They treat us royally here. They make us feel like rock stars.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Video link for Toadies &#8212; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?feature=player_embedded&amp;v=Odt8frMsLTk.\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?feature=player_embedded&amp;v=Odt8frMsLTk.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Toadies show, which also features In the Whale, Alright Junior, will start at 8 p.m. Tickets are $30 in advance and $35 day of show.<\/p>\n<p>Other upcoming shows at the Ardmore Music Hall (23 East Lancaster Avenue, Ardmore, 610-649-8389,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ardmoremusic.com\">www.ardmoremusic.com<\/a>) are Hezekiah Jones on November 14 and Broken Arrow &#8211;Neil Young Tribute and Big Jangle &#8212; Tom Petty tribute on November 15.<a href=\"http:\/\/www.unionvilletimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/emilie-and-ogden-300x186.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-1221337\" src=\"http:\/\/www.unionvilletimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/emilie-and-ogden-300x186.jpg\" alt=\"emilie and ogden\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>On November 12, Burlap &amp; Bean Coffeehouse (204 South Newtown Street Road, Newtown Square, 484-427-4547,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.burlapandbean.com\/\">www.burlapandbean.com<\/a>) will host the area debut of Emilie &amp; Ogden.<\/p>\n<p>Odgen doesn\u2019t speak but is far from a silent partner.\u00a0 Emilie Kahn, a Montreal native, sings and plays harp. Ogden is her harp. Together, the two are on a mini-tour of the Northeast in support of the debut record \u201c10,000.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI released the album in October,\u201d said Kahn, during a phone interview Wednesday as she awaited her show at Boot and Saddle in Philly. \u201cI had a little EP out before that but all those songs are on the album.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI recorded the album just outside of Montreal. I spent an intensive week in the studio and then came back and worked on it in Montreal. Finally, I did the vocal takes in another country location outside of Montreal. I spent six months altogether in making the album.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A big break came for Kahn when she did a video of her cover of Taylor Swift\u2019s song \u201cStyle.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI play that cover in my live show,\u201d said Kahn. \u201cWhen I put the video of the song online, it did really well. It went viral almost immediately. Taylor Swift even re-tweeted it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kahn is new as a recording artist but she has been making music for awhile.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was into songwriting when I was young,\u201d said Kahn. \u201cI was a music major at Vanier College in Montreal with flute as my instrument. That was my childhood instrument so I was searching for a new instrument. When I was at Vanier, I discovered the harp. That was five years ago.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think harp is the greatest instrument. I love the way it looks and the way it sounds. I can play a lot of strings sympathetically. And, it wasn\u2019t much harder than learning to play piano.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I do shows in Quebec, it\u2019s mostly with my band &#8212; guitar, bass and drums &#8212; and me on harp and vocals. For this mini-tour, it\u2019s just me solo. It\u2019s fun to play solo. Right now, it\u2019s just me and Ogden travelling around in my little car.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Video link for Emilie &amp; Ogden &#8212; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?feature=player_detailpage&amp;v=9sSOoMu_MWI.\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?feature=player_detailpage&amp;v=9sSOoMu_MWI.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The show at B&amp;B will start at 8 p.m. with Luray as the opening act. Tickets are $10.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Banjo-infused indie rock outfit Luray, which is led by singer-songwriter Shannon Carey, just released its debut album \u201cThe Wilder.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI grew up in Wisconsin,\u201d said Carey, during a phone interview Tuesdsay. \u201cMy dad is a music teacher and a musician in a country band. There was always a lot of singing in our house &#8212; and a lot of instruments around. My mom and I studied with a guitar teacher when I was six.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI mostly listened to folk and pop when I was young &#8212; music of the 70s. I also listened to some country music. I think that had a lot of influence on me. Pedal steel and banjo were used sparingly. So, when I heard them, my ears perked up.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI stared to learn banjo when I was in my late 20s. I was working as a social worker in California and noticed this sense of boredom in my life. I had a feeling that I should be doing something different.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That something different was music.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI looked for a banjo teacher,\u201d said Carey. \u201cThen, I found a community of bluegrass music. I rented a banjo and took lessons. Five years later, my husband and I moved to D.C. I decided &#8212; no more social work. I focused on writing music and practicing. My first gig with the band was in spring 2011.<\/p>\n<p>Luray, which is based in Virgina, features Sarah Gilberg on keyboard and backing vocals, Gabriel Wisniewski on electric guitar, C.J. Wolfe on drums, Brian Cruse on bass and Carey on banjo and vocals.<\/p>\n<p>The band\u2019s most recent album was \u201cThe Wilder,\u201d which was released in 2013. A new album is in the works.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1221340\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.unionvilletimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/luray-2-300x200.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1221340\" class=\"wp-image-1221340 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.unionvilletimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/luray-2-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"luray 2\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1221340\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Shannon Carey and the band Luray<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\u201cThe new album will have 11 tracks and hopefully will be out in the spring,\u201d said Carey. \u201cWith the new material, I think some of the melodies and themes are the same as before.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe biggest difference is the instrumentation because the band has been together for three years already. There are a little more influences of pop, jazz and world. We even have an mbira onstage.

So, I\u2019ll have a real connection with the audience.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve been in music for awhile. I tried not to be a musician. I went to the University of Vermont for engineering. Then, I was over it. I didn\u2019t want to send my life at a desk. A career in engineering wasn\u2019t exciting. It was boring.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, I scraped some money together, made an EP, shoved all my belongings into my Honda Civic and moved to New York. Since then, I\u2019ve released seven solo albums, four EPs and six collaborative projects.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nash has been able to stay busy consistently<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve toured the United States many times and recently did my 10<sup>th<\/sup> tour of Europe. I occasionally produce records for other artists and I compose music for TV shows and films. I just did the music for the film \u2018Coming Through The Rye.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve done an album-a-year since 2008. I released a three-song single with Garrison Starr and I have another single coming out next week. Garrison has been a friend for years and we\u2019ve done a lot of tours together.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThings have changed so much that it\u2019s less about albums anymore. With the new single, Erin and I got together last year and wrote the song. Erin and I had a conversation that was stream of consciousness and it turned into a song. She came up to my place in Vermont and we recorded a few songs in my home studio.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c\u2018Where to Start\u2019 was such a good song, I couldn\u2019t stand to let it sit in the vault any longer. BaebelMusic is going to premiere on November 9. Hopefully, by the time I start the tour in Philly, it will have some resonance with people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m doing this tour with Josh Day. For the last year or so, most of my live recordings and shows have been done with Josh Day. We have a real musical rapport. Our voices work well together. We toured last year as The Contenders and people enjoyed it. It filled a void that was there when I played solo acoustic.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Video link for Jay Nash &#8212; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?feature=player_detailpage&amp;v=6MnBiImaQLI.\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?feature=player_detailpage&amp;v=6MnBiImaQLI.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The show at the Tin Angel will start at 8 p.m. with tickets priced at $12.<\/p>\n<p>Other Tin Angel shows in the upcoming week are Giovanni Vitacolonna on November 13, Kasim Sulton on November 14 and Steve Davidson &amp; Ken Bonfield on November 18.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>There will be nothing unlucky about Friday the 13<sup>th<\/sup> for music fans who attend the concert that evening at Union Transfer (1026 Spring Garden Street, Philadelphia, 215-232-2100, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.utphilly.com\">www.utphilly.com<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>The venue is hosting talented singer-songwriter Rachel Yamagata.<\/p>\n<p>Rachel Yamagata released her first album \u201cHappenstance\u201d in 2004.

It\u2019s like &#8212; get it finished already.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m releasing it myself. It was mostly recorded at my home in Woodstock, New York and we did some at Village Recorders. A lot of it was done in an organic set-up in my living room or outside. I live on 12 acres with a lot of nature that is conducive to being creative.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI worked in a really comfortable environment. I recorded a lot at home &#8212; whenever I felt the inspiration. There were a lot of advantages in doing it at home. Unlike in a recording studio, you don\u2019t have to look up at a clock. I wanted complete freedom without pressure from a studio.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have a complete studio set up in my home and my boyfriend is a recording engineer. This is the first record where I took on more of a producer role. I did a lot of trial-and-error with the arrangements and musicians. Producing it myself, I was able to work on instincts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSome of the production ideas I used are ones I wouldn\u2019t have arrived at with another person adding input. I didn\u2019t have to record songs in parts. I worked hard on 15 songs doing a lot of revisions, re-recording and re-tracking \u2014 revising them until they felt really interesting to me. I used banjos, mandolins, sax and drums. I even sampled patterns of rain on a stool.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The new album is organic &#8212; and diverse.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe songs are all very different,\u201d said Yamagata. \u201cIt\u2019s like a new sound for me.
