Help out Silent Street Productions!! →
So, I haven’t written on my blog in quite sometime as some of you have noticed. I’ve been busy with 40 hours of work a week, working overnights at the hotel, running rehearsals 10-2 every morning, getting about an hour of sleep per day. And Oh, yeah, moving my entire apartment from Brooklyn to…

Newport Folk Festival: Dawes!!!
This was my favorite set at Newport. They have a classic sound. A classic look. They got the crowd loving them so much that as soon as the last song of their set finished, everyone was on their feet screaming - and would not stop. I was back stage with the sound guys and when this happened, one of them looked at the other and mouthed, “WOW”. Because… nothing like that had...

Taylor Goldsmith (Of Dawes) Interview
One of the cooler things about this gig was - of course seeing all of these bands perform - but more cool was seeing them out of their “stage element” and backstage with the commoners and roadies. With the Press ranging from blogs to The Rolling Stone to NPR. The Interview.
Lots of musicians take to interviews very well - others don’t hold the highest of respect for them. But...

Newport Folk Festival: Calexico
Calexico! Wicked Sweet - except for the drunk girls standing in the front row who kept yelling things at the band (“You have a trumpet!” ”I love guitars”) Yeah … they were really awesome. They were also awesome because at this point in the day -everyone on the lawn was sitting down…except for them. Dead center. Front row. The band (mostly the trumpet...

Bizzaro world?
I was speaking to a gentleman on the phone today and asked for his last name. “Hodges”. “Haha” I said, “My last name is Hodge.” He loved it. Truly loved it. Like loved it so much he started telling whoever he was with that we shared a similar last name….and then they were laughing. It was kinda weird but also fun. Then I asked for his first name and I joked that it better not be...

Back Stage with the Avett Brothers
Listening to these boy talk about their approach to music was the most eloquent part of my entire weekend in Newport. All those things you casually say about wanting to be “A Fly on the Wall” - Well…I was ;) I was a Brooklyn Fly. And they took me in. Ok - done with the referencing haha enjoy these lovely boys:D

Newport Folk Festival: The Low Anthem
WOAH. Its over. I think I just blinked and everyone was packing up and heading home. The close of the festival was bittersweet -I was exhausted - with the BIGGEST grin on my face and in my heart. My original plan was to make a day-to-day post of everything that was going on and who/what we saw - however the wireless connection where I was staying was uploading my photos at a snails pace and I...
