\nI interviewed Samara for a story that\u2019s running soon in Mountain Xpress<\/i>. She\u2019s a fascinating artist, and her latest album, Zero<\/i>, is informed by a fast, a vision quest and self-imposed (pandemic-related) isolation. All those influences come together to make a deeply meditative album that\u2019s acoustic-feeling, even though there are subtle electric elements in the mix.<\/p>\n
More soon. Because \u2013 believe it or not \u2013 it\u2019s beginning to look a lot like … well, you know.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We\u2019re back to actual live shows, with restrictions.

\nIf the last decade or so has been about one ting musically, its been about being about more<\/i> than one thing. Combining \u2013 or at least drawing from \u2013 multiple genres with the goal of creating something new has been the approach of countless artists. And one of the more successful one has and continues to be G. Love (born Garrett Dutton). With his band Special Sauce, he makes a laid-back, bluesy and r&b-flavored kind of hip-hop. Sound confusing? When you hear it, it\u2019ll make sense. Oh, and hold the Sauce: this is a solo show.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/30do_amanda_platt.jpg\")

\nAsheville and all of Western North Carolina boasts more than its fair share of supremely talented musicians. But Amanda Anne Platt is in a class of her own. As leader (singer, songwriter) of the Honeycutters, he has fashioned a body of work that displays her innate understanding or (and talent for creating) music in a classic country mold. No artifice; she\u2019s the real deal. And while she\u2019s deserved grown quite a following, I believe that still bigger thins are on the horizon for her in the post-pandemic music world. Meanwhile, local fans can see and hear her for free. Be generous when you see the tip bucket, though.

\nBrothers Jens and Uwe may be from Switzerland, but their understanding of traditional American music is wider and deeper than that of most natives. They chose to relocate to Western N.C. specifically because of the region\u2019s musical culture. And since arriving here, they\u2019ve created a massive body of work as well as an ardent fan base. Do check \u2018em out. I interviewed them back in the spring, but the story (previewing a scheduled live performance) didn\u2019t run because of the pandemic.<\/p>\n
