About Me |
|
.."I see the studio as it must be; like a living thing, a life itself. The machine must be live and intelligent. Then I put my mind into the machine and the machine performs reality. Invisible thought waves - you put them into the machine by sending them through the controls and the knobs or you jack it into the jack panel. The jack panel is the brain itself, so you got to patch up the brain and make the brain a living man, that the brain can take what you're sending into it and live." |

Scene companion of indisputable mavericks of the guitare-qui-tue-les-fascistes (Vetiver, Bert Jansch, Nick Castro…). Been born in the mountains brumeuses of the Caroline of the North, Jonathan Wilson preserved local folklores, the bluegrass notably, this beautiful seriousness, this generous destitution, this modest virtuosity; California where it is himself refugee, it adopted this nonchalance mixture and of frenzy: it has beautiful to live calmly by the desert, far men, his studio is a fourmilière, from which 2007! One will repair therefore of this songwriting that ate the dust of the desert, but drunk the water of the Pacific, at once gnarled, bluesy, hairier and more nevertheless more elegant, more sensual, dandy. This is rare beauty of this Frankie Ray: to possess a DNA where Gram Parsons, Curtis Mayfield, Alex Chilton and Nick Drake would be at equality. Not astonishing that this Wilson, to the ideal name to succeed in the pop strange one, grew in the same mountains, to the same altitude, that Sparklehorse. Record Label: Pretty and Black, ltd. Type of Label: Indie |
