Aurhor's Apology back from Athens

3/26/2010 (FRIDAY) - drunken unicorn w/ jeffrey butzer, and adron

The crew from Author's Apology have been spending some time in my home-away-from home, Athens, Ga., recording with Andy Baker. We're looking forward to their vinyl offering which should get attention from local radio and any where else the lads are able to tour.

Jeffrey Bützer and the Bicycle Eaters

Although widely known as a “one man show” on the Atlanta music scene, Jeffrey Bützer will flesh out his unique sound with a full band on March 26th at The Drunken Unicorn. The Bicycle Eaters, as Bützer is calling his group, will accompany the musician on songs from his first two records, She Traded Her Leg (2006) and Garden of Scissors (2009), as well new material from his third full length which is currently in production.

Ultimately, the biggest draw to Bützer’s music is the images it creates –images wholly singular on record and on the music scene. He draws musical influences from Nino Rota, Ennio Morricone, Tom Waits, PJ Harvey, and Yann Tiersen which creates a rare combination of musette, sea shanties, klezmer, and surf music. His influences extend past music, though, as there is also an undeniable connection between the sound and European cinema. Like many of his influences, Bützer often writes music as scores to films both made and unmade, but even without knowing the connections to film, it is impossible to listen to his music and not hear the cinema.

Comprised of Mark Carbone (A Fight to the Death) on percussion/drums, Chad Shivers (Sorry No Ferrari, The Squares) playing guitar, Claire Lodge (The Compartmentalizationalists, Midwives) on addtional guitar, T.T. Mahony (Standard 8) on glockenspiel/keys, and Paul Massa (Midwives) playing bass, the Bicycle Eaters will join Bützer for the entirety of his set. While, in this setting, the musician will relinquish instrument duties to his fellow band mates, he plans to maintain a role playing a myriad of instruments including accordion, piano, toy piano, melodica, and glockenspiel. Tom Cheshire (Westend Motel, All Night Drug Prowling Wolves, Rent Boys) will join the band on guest vocals.

The show is Friday, March 26th at the Drunken Unicorn. Author’s Apology and Adron open. $6 21+ 9pm

Feeding Fingers Finds Its Audience

The Atlanta post-punk trio known as Feeding Fingers have finally found their audience.  Four years and two albums later, the band is finally finding recognition in its homeland.  
 
Feeding Fingers, fronted by award-winning animator, Justin Curfman, has gained the attention of Thomas Dolby (of "She Blinded Me With Science" fame).  Thomas Dolby, who has worked with artists such as David Bowie, Depeche Mode and Pink Floyd, will be supervising the production of Feeding Fingers' third album, Detach Me From My Head (which is slated for release in Fall 2010).

 
Almost simultaneously, Feeding Fingers began co-headlining in Italy with
post-industrial legends, Nizter Ebb, and were being invited to play in
Germany at Wave-Gothik-Treffen, the world's largest goth festival.  As college radio stations of the US caught wind of this,Feeding Fingers suddenly became a well-known secret.
 
Although the band refuses to adhere to any genre, Feeding Fingers are often times compared to the gothic-forefathers The Cure and Joy Division.  This comparison has helped them find an audience with goths and emo rockers alike.  Their sophomore album, Baby Teeth, reached 4th place at Gothic Paradise and 16th place on the Global Goth Chart.  The album even managed to reach the Portuguese Top 100 Alternative Chart, along with being recognized as one of Musicfolio's most notable albums of 2009.
 
Feeding Fingers is currently slated for two European tours in 2010.  Before their journey across the pond, however, the band is scheduled to play a show in their hometown in Atlanta and 2 subsequent shows in New York in celebration of their first music video's release, which is being directed by award-winning digital artist, Steven Lapcevic of Anomalyville.
