Bobby Gillespie and Jhenny Beth: Utopian Ashes

Bobby Gillespie and Jhenny Beth Utopian Ashes Third Man Records We love those heartbreak albums and duets. Emmylou Harris and Gram Parsons, the Richard and Linda Thompson devastation that played out over a half dozen records but was so brutally captured on one in particular – and as an aside to that, sometimes linked, the […]

Olivia Jean & April March: Palladium (ep)

Olivia Jean & April March Palladium (ep) Third Man Records I haven’t loved everything Jack White has done but I have always been in support of the aesthetic and business model of his Third Man Records – classic, old-fashioned record-making for people that love music. Novelty jukebox singles, quirky fan projects and an overall quality-control […]

Mdou Moctar: Blue Stage Session

Mdou Moctar  Blue Stage Session  Third Man Records  Third Man Records is easily the best thing Jack White’s ever done – and for proof we need only look at at things like this, limited edition, direct-to-vinyl recording sessions that showcase the best of popular and fringe acts.   Here Tuareg guitarist Mdou Moctar lets his spidery, psychedelic-jam guitar loose over crawling spirals of drum rhythm. His hypnotic weave of desert blues and new-frontier […]

Margo Price: Weakness (ep)

Margo Price Weakness (ep) Third Man Records I haven’t been this excited about a ‘new country’-type artist since first hearing Neko Case; there’s a touch of that early Neko Case sound on Just Like Love, one of four songs here on Margo Price’s new (stopgap) EP. By the time you read this she’ll have released […]

Pokey LaFarge: Pokey LaFarge

Pokey LaFarge Pokey LaFarge Third Man Records You might like this – he’s coming to New Zealand to do a bunch of shows too! – but first you’ll need to be aware that, as yet, there is no proof that Pokey LaFarge was not built in the lab by Jack White. Sounding like the name […]
