  2. Bruce Hornsby looks ahead to a festival-filled 2012

    Williamsburg's Bruce Hornsby is going to need a case or two of Jolt Cola to get him through 2012. Judging from the schedule he recently described to me, he's hardly going to have time to sleep in coming months.

  3. Heart of Gold: Mountain Heart performs on Jan. 6 at Infinity Music Hall & Bistro

    <span style="font-size: medium;">There are traditional bluegrass acts, and then there are bands like Mountain Heart. While it&rsquo;s true that, since the late 1990s, when banjo player Barry Abernathy and fiddle player Jim Van Cleve started playing with singer Steve Gulley (who left in 2006), they&rsquo;ve performed at the Grand Ole Opry more than 100 times. But the six-man group, who has shared stages over the years with John Fogerty, Travis Tritt, the Allman Brothers, Derek Trucks and Susan Tedeschi and many others from alternate musical worlds, have always seemed equally at home blowing on &ldquo;Whipping Post&rdquo; (as on their latest release, 2010&rsquo;s <em>That Just Happened</em>) as they are on &ldquo;Little Georgia Rose.&rdquo; (<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P6skIIuXPVk" target="_blank">Give it a listen: the 7/8 sections float by with a breezy swagger, piano and fiddle do decent stand-in jobs for the Allman&rsquo;s two-guitar attack, and Schilling does a mean white-boy blues holler</a>.)</span>

    <span style="font-size: small;">When British website, the Quietus, recently asked the legendary Dolly Parton which contemporary singers are impressing her these days, she -- no surprise -- mentioned Alison Krauss, citing the bluegrass icon's angelic voice, humility and musical knowledge "good enough to conduct an orchestra."</span>

  12. Dawes Step Forward While Staring a Few Decades Back

    <em></em>If you've never heard a note played by either <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZHWfx3JqXE" target="_blank">Simon Dawes</a> or <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HctNdDxXa-A" target="_blank">Dawes</a>, it's understandably very easy to get the two bands mixed up. After all, their names are very similar and lineup-wise, both are almost the same thing. But to Taylor Goldsmith, Simon Dawes (his defunct group) and Dawes (his current group) are the products of considerably different approaches&mdash;an idea evidenced by how he responds to the same question on both groups. In 2006, the <em>Los Angeles Times</em>, the act's hometown newspaper, asked Goldsmith what the indie/alt-rock-leaning Simon Dawes would be like if it were an actual person and not a band. &ldquo;<a href="http://articles.latimes.com/2006/aug/31/news/wk-bands31" target="_blank">He would probably be very neurotic</a>,&rdquo; the vocalist/guitarist said. &ldquo;And probably the center of the universe."
