Natives of Michigan, and recently signed to the influential Concord, NC Ramseur Records, Frontier Ruckus plays another song in our kitchen. This posting comes on the same day that National Music and Entertainment Magazine, Paste, gave the Harvey’s Kitchen series a big nod. We’ve worked tirelessly with no pay and some really supportive followers. Thank [...]

Spring 2009 in Greensboro, NC has been marked by torrents of rain. Mosquitoes are now happily frolicking in flocks awaiting a warm vein. Watering tomato plants can be hazardous and a few residents found their cars underwater in parking lots after thunderous thirty minute lunches.
Frontier Ruckus, now signed to the Concord, NC Ramseur Records arrived [...]

Here’s another video … Samantha and Frontier Ruckus were at the house at the same time so here they are together.  Songs in the Night.
When focused, Ms. Crain — with turquoise tights screaming out from between a beige print dress and red cowboy boots — was captivating. Her pleading, slightly distant intonation recalled early-1990s Britpop, [...]

Samantha arrived on the same day as Frontier Ruckus, both bands on the influential Concord, NC based label, Ramseur Records.  The music was so lovely all afternoon I had a difficult time remembering why I was ever frustrated or stressed out about anything at all.  As my friend Vijay would say, “Harvey, what a life!”
Samantha [...]

Constantly juggling mulitiple projects, Lovinder Gill, Faculty member of UNCSA sat down for an interview in the kitchen.  An MFA Screenwriting recipient of Hollins University, Lovinder began his scholastic journey as an engineering student only to discover that his elective classes in Journalism and Film Studies were a source of greater curiosity and joy.
He was [...]

Here’s another one called Lucky from Katharine Whalen’s new project with the same title, Lucky. Just a quick note the opening segment includes  an original number composed and sung by Katharine’s daughter.
A lot of talent in that family. Also, we got our camera back stage at the Cat’s Cradle so you’ll get a small taste [...]

Probably best known for her role in the Squirrel Nut Zippers, Katharine Whalen plays Chief Thunder in our kitchen, a track from her new project with Will Dawson. Lucky.  We spent a day at her lovely farm and read Steinbeck on a hammock, ate spinach fritatas, and sipped on champagne while musicians played on her [...]

We first met this crew when I was bartending and booking at the Flat Iron. They’re hard working craftsmen. Many moons later, I helped shoot their music video alongside Mark Wagoner and the Mitre Agency.
Donkey Faces and smoke bombs.
It was cold but there’s nothing like jumping around the forest with a production camera backwards tracking [...]

Veteran Journalist, Jeri Rowe talks about the Triad music scene over the past 30 years. I’ve been acquainted with Jeri for a little over a decade. A consummate reporter with a mind for names, dates, associations, conversations verbatim together with a disarming smile.

Matt Hill leads this blues Quartet. This is part 2 of maybe 3.
“Max is in the truest sense a professional musician. With his successful band Arhooly, he did shows for 15 years with Blues greats like B.B. King, Robert Cray, Lightnin’ Hopkins, Carey Bell, and Freddy King. The list is too long so will just [...]

Guitarist for the Triad’s Black and Blue for the past 40 years and member of Sophisticated Blues, Ray Burnett is originally from Chatham County, NC but now resides in Greensboro. “The Jazz players call me a Blues player and the Blues players call me a Jazz Player, and there’s a whole lot of players who [...]

So. This is part one of two. Albina Savoy: A dash of Toulouse-Lautrec, Django, the flicker of gas lamps and Jack the Ripper all sweetly punctuated with harmony, upright bass, and a blood soaked saw. I do hope this trio comes back to the kitchen.
Another great band from Greensboro, NC.
Jon — Upright Bass
Crystal — Accordian, [...]

The Buzzkillz, lead by Matt hill has been playing the blues circuit for some time. Since there’ll be a few of these. I’ll disclose the information in pieces.
“People in not just North Carolina rave about Chuck Cotton. People from Greensboro to Finland eat up anything this man has to offer. Oh, yeah he’s also one [...]

Originally from Knoxville Tennessee, Sam Quinn, also of the Everybodyfields is on the Concord, NC based label Ramseur Records which introduced the Avett Brothers to the world.
On this, the first hot day of the year, in a tiny room with 4 musicians, a snaggly cat and myself the temperature quickly became uncomfortable, so we took [...]

The Never. Another great band to emerge from the Trekky Records Collective.
The Never are currently touring in support of the release of their second long player album, entitled ANTARCTICA. It’s a storybook album: a full length CD literally coupled with a fully illustrated storybook by guitarist Noah Smith. The story is centered around a young, [...]

ArtBeat Greensboro is a weeklong celebration of the Arts.  May 1st-10th.
Full disclosure.  I did formerly work with the Touring Theatre of North Carolina and Brenda Schleunes for around 8 years as an actor.  It was an unusual role reversal.  A true pleasure.
This collaboration between Barbara Presnell and Brenda is the kind in which Touring Theatre [...]

Chapel Hill based folk Orchestra, Lost in the Trees is another great band to step out of the Trekky Records collective, a label created by Martin Anderson and Will Hackney while they were still in High School selling cds out of the back of their car.
We hope to interview both Martin and Will sometime soon.
More [...]

Chapel Hill based Lost in the Trees had the second shortest stay in our kitchen next to Blind Pilot.  They’re currently on the ambitious Trekky Records along with The Never who also performed a session here.
I’m so glad I learned a few things about audio.  Unfortunately we couldn’t fit the entire ensemble in such a [...]

Hiram, born and raised in Ghana to a family of missionaries, found us in the morass we call the interwebs.  He’s young and extremely savvy.  He drives around in a compact car with his guitar from one coffee shop to the next with his tiny video camera and laptop.  It took me some time to [...]

Filthybird.  Now, I know better.
This marks the 50th Harvey’s Kitchen video since we began in the final week of October, 2008.  It has probably been the steepest learning curve in all manner of aspects in my life.  Work.  Play.  Relationships.  Audio.  Camera Technique.  Business. Lack of business.  Joy.
This band, is a collection of really talented [...]

Filthybird is currently recording a new album following their debut Southern Skies at the aptly named, Pinebox Recording Studio.  There’s a sense of hopeful decay in these songs that stay with you long after the melody transitions to silence, like kudzu on a long forgotten telegraph pole.
A Greensboro gem.

Greensboro-based Filthybird has always been a remarkable phenomenon.  Witness a live show and you’ll be immersed in the sonic equivalent of Tim Burton in a lullaby riddled with reverb.  Best I could come up with.
During the session a bass string broke and during the break, Renee sang a few songs.  Stephen Dedalus.
More to follow.

So, we took part in something called the International Documentary Challenge which is another one of those, “here’s a ridiculously small amount of time to make something” contests.  We drew 2 genres … art and first person with the themes of hope and fear.
Since we’d never made a documentary on any scale we decided to [...]

This was by far the fastest kitchen session.  Pete Schroth of Giant Invisible Cyclops had booked the band for a show at Studio B in Greensboro and some last minute calling to the manager brought them by our place.   I was nervous.  The all important third mic I thought was going to solve a lot [...]

Emily Moore.  Justin Huey.  Prolific musicians from Charlotte, NC.  They brought themselves and a Rhodes piano into our kitchen and reminded us of the reason why we ventured into this project.  Simple.  Honest.  Music.  Our cat was sick at the time, and while we relaxed with a glass of wine or two and ate General [...]

Resident of Greensboro.  Found sound artist.  Inspired by artists such as Negativland and late seventies post-punk.   Bart Trotman plays with instruments salvaged from thrift stores.  Hidden beneath his personable demeanor is a sense of purpose about our cultural identity, our environment.  This particular art movement has parallels in the readymade of Marcel Duchamp’s Bottle rack [...]

There’s nothing like the sound of a fresh spring when you’re thirsty.  Bruce Molsky, a magician on the fiddle and banjo is not unaccustomed to time signatures as peculiar as parallel universes to a Newtonian.  44/16.  11/16.  He played for a few minutes in a wicker chair that often makes the recordings twitch, warming up, [...]

Here are the Radials again, in one take.  Funny thing is there isn’t an audio file in this entire series that isn’t one take.
A page from the Corbett Lyric book:
My baby went down to the Chop House to get herself a fix.

Suzanne Stafford. She’s been in Greensboro for some time and used to be lead singer for a band called, “Scarlet Harlot” which is no longer with us. Come Hell or High Water hasn’t played out in over a year due to the rigors of motherhood and working full time as a bartender at [...]

There’s nothing quite like making new friends.

Jimmy Tremor, Slim Pickens, and Stretch Armstrong make up this Rockabilly, Psychobilly, Punk Trio.  Close your eyes and you can hear the tin din of a tiny black and white tv screen, the hum of a jukebox brought to life by a dime and the smell of axle grease.  There’s the unmistakable influence of Jerry [...]

“Baffi Lungi,” aka Snags of the feline Rockabilly alt-punk jazz ensemble “Salmonella,” makes his debut in this video along with the very talented Greensboro-based Crap Rock All Stars.  These guys really aren’t crap and our cat approved.  You can catch this trio all over the triad playing crazy crazy music.

Kit Dean, Tom Tinnitis, and Mikey Roohan play in this sweet act the name of which comes from a Simpsons reference about crap rock.  Often confused as novelty performers, this band has been surprising audiences all over the place with their driving radio glitz.
They are not known for their easy-listening acoustic lilt but they unplugged [...]

One just wasn’t enough.
Here’s what Big Bang Boom has to say about themselves:

Throughout this interview were 5 people constantly playing music. I’d ask a question. Contemplation. The silence would be interrupted by a contemplative melody on a banjo or guitar. In the 2 hours we had the pleasure of listening to these guys, they displayed the kind of energy you only see in [...]

These guys came into our kitchen and played so many songs and told so many stories we couldn’t fit it all into one piece. Plus, the world of warcraft addiction was too good to skip.

Originally from Atlanta, Georgia Pete now lives in Greensboro, NC. He and his wife own and operate the Green Bean, a coffee shop/gallery/performance venue.

Molly wrote 2 songs. Here’s the 2nd one. We don’t normally do multiple postings but these chansons from this chanteuse were so good we couldn’t resist. This one will be played at the Greensboro Urban Ministry sometime very soon.

It all began one summer morning when the dog ate the biscuit.  A tall man took his coffee black in the absence of sugar.  Afterwards there was naught but the sound of … We’ve all had it.  Writer’s block.  An old teacher used to say that he’d never experienced it.  Writer’s block just means that [...]

A number of our photographer friends have been talking about time-lapse photography lately.  Since I’ve had the crud that’s going around I’ve had a lot of time on my hands to see just how much quality material is out there.  So many great photographers, filmmakers, musicians.  It boggles the mind.
I also spent a good deal [...]

So, the past few days since Thanksgiving I’ve been suffering from one of those winter colds that creeps up on you and never seems to want to die. Along with the cold and the snot and the cat with the cold and the snot my cellphone was laundered. It probably needed cleaning but [...]

Our friend told us about this video and we have to admit it makes us laugh. Every time.

A friend of ours sent us this video. Gone are the days of the harpoon and longboat. Ahab. Moby Dick. Sometimes it’s just a lady with a rifle and a little tiny net. Something doesn’t quite add up here.

Were Bruce Lee still alive, we’d ask him to join us in our kitchen. Forget that Chuck Norris doesn’t believe in the periodic table because he only believes in the element of suprise. Bruce + Ping-Pong + Nunchucks = badass. Even though he’s dead and gone we’re making him an honorary Monkeywhale [...]

Sean Coon, the creative and administrative force behind the dotmatrixproject checks in with us on the progress of his collaborative experiment. The pressures of an extremely heavy workload combined with personal struggles and attempts to balance the two are common themes in this industry.

Citified, a 4 member Shoegazer rock band took time out on a sunday to drink beer and play acoustically in this kitchen.  Initially Chris suggested we use pre recorded music as Citified’s sound is about reverb and melodic noise which isn’t necessarily translatable in an acoustic medium, but after seeing the results with Eating the [...]

Six members of this North Carolina based band, piled into my kitchen elbow to knee and performed “Carpet and Tile,” from their upcoming EP Elbows up, Strings Down.
