TODD ADELMAN & THE LOVE HANDLES CD RELEASE SHOW IN BOULDER: MARCH 12, 2008 AT THE B SIDE LOUNGE!
Just prior to Christmas, while the world was locked in white (and the temperature was dipping below freezing up here in the hills), I had the distinct pleasure of logging some hours up at Completely Lost studio in Nederland. The Love Handles have made a record, folks, and yours truly was honored to be invited to participate. I sang hard enough to warm my toes and I am pround to say the record is a beauty.
Produced by Lee Alexander (Norah Jones, Amos Lee), Joshua Kessler (Bushwick Studio) and Diego Voglino (Marshall Crenshaw, Natalie Merchant), the band is in full bloom with the addition of Alexander on bass and Voglino on drums. It features most of the regular line up with a sprinkling of special guests such as the incomparable Danny Shafer and Reed Foehl.
As I wrote last summer, Todd writes like the bastard child of Tom Waits and Gram Parsons with a little Stephen Stills thrown in for good measure. His band, The Love Handles, features the incomparable Greg Shochet on guitar and mandolin, and the all too fine Bret Billings on pedal steel (both borrowed from Halden Wofford's Hi- Beams). Come help us celebrate the eponymous debut. I'll be there with the boys, singing my heart out. Details can be found HERE!

My New Writing Project, The Flutter Effect, Is Now Online
The Flutter Effect, a journal for daily social commentary and political critique, is now online HERE. It's one part politics, one part pop culture, and one part whatever rears its head in the news. I think the internet has the incredible power to change the way current events are not only reported but disseminated. Come be part of the new experiment. |

Writing More, Touring Less
Many of you have noticed and even written to me about the fact that I am touring less these days. This is true. I've settled in a bit up at 8500 feet and while I may not be performing out and about quite as much, I am writing more than ever and hope to have something you can actually read in your hands by the end of 2009 (there's a goal for you). I think I have previously stated my distaste for the Misery Memoir, which has been a fad as of late (thanks, er, James Frey). Hopefully this will be a little less rehab and a little more wretched heart. We'll see. In the meantime, that on-line journal of mine has been picking up steam, what with the election coming up and my creative wheels turning at a fever clip. I have finally opened it up to comments, but please know up front, I control the delete button. That's just how it is. Onward with the grand experiment! |

LAST COLORADO SHOW BEFORE THE BIG MOVE
|
|
Well, it's official. We're packing up our house and moving to the Land of The Vidalia Onion. In an unexpected turn of events, on July 1, Jim and I are heading to Atlanta for the foreseeable future. This means I have only one more local show before the Big Ass Move but it's one of my favorites.
On Saturday, June 20th, I'll bid farewell to my beloved state at the Columbine UU Church in Littleton, CO. This is a wonderful room with fantastic acoustics and a phenomenal host. It will be an honor to play for the folks who have so warmly and graciously supported me not only for the last six years since returning from New England, but since the very beginning back in 1994. I feel like a very lucky woman.
See details below. |
