SOULIVE & KARL DENSON
SPARK Soulive has never made any bones about what they do best; it’s right there in their name. Since forming in 1999, the trio of guitarist Eric Krasno, drummer Alan Evans and keyboardist Neal Evans has carried the torch for the soul-jazz organ trio—that venerable, funky institution pioneered by the likes of Jimmy Smith, Brother Jack McDuff and Groove Holmes in the late ’60s. Rest assured, when the Evans brothers first brought Kraz by their Woodstock studio, there was plenty of old vinyl spread out on the floor. In their 13 years together, Soulive has followed the muse in the direction of hip-hop, R&B, blues and rock, collaborating with the likes of Chaka Khan, Dave Matthews, Talib Kweli, John Scofield, Derek Trucks, Maceo Parker, Susan Tedeschi, Robert Rando ...

CRAIG FINN (The Hold Steady) Playing songs from his debut solo album “Clear Heart Full Eyes”, which Craig describes as juxtaposed and influenced by Friday Night Lights, a TV show that excited and moved him and also happened in Texas, where he recorded this fine album. Craig says ”‘Clear Heart’ signifies honesty and transparency, and ‘Full Eyes’ suggests experience. Thus, the album is about being optimistic and open without succumbing to the weariness or doubt that comes with age and experience.” To him, that is what it’s all about.

Western listeners have heard the ecstatic drone of the African rock known as desert blues — modal, one-chord songs driven by electric guitars, traditional instruments, hand claps and call-and-response vocals — from bands like Tinariwen and Etran Finatawa. But neither one has a singer like Khaira Arby, a Malian whose voice rings like a cry from the battlements. On “Timbuktu Tarab” (Clermont Music), her singing ricochets against eager backup choruses and lead-guitar lines that can hint at both Hendrix and Ali Farka Touré. Her band, mixing Western and African instruments, clearly knows its rock and reggae but keeps its African perspective, while a sinewy production flaunts every contrapuntal cascade. It’s world music that grabs and doesn’t let go. When and Where: July 23 @ The due return @ C ...
