Avril Lavigne è la cantautrice canadese diventata una star internazionale all’inizio del millennio.

Icona del pop punk, ha venduto più di 50 milioni di album e oltre 50 milioni di singoli. 

Le sue canzoni hanno fatto parte di diverse colonne sonore, soprattutto per film d’animazione, ha prestato la voce a diversi personaggi dei cartoni e ispirato un’eroina dei videogiochi.

Si è esibita in quasi tutto il globo e vinto un’infinità di premi.

Ha ricevuto otto candidature ai Grammy Award, tre ai Brit Award e si è aggiudicata un Mtv Video Music Awards, due Mtv Europe Music Awards, sette Radio Disney Music Awards e nove Juno Award.

Nata a Belleville, in Ontario, il 27 settembre 1984 in una famiglia umile e molto religiosa, da bambina le è stato diagnosticata la sindrome da deficit di attenzione e iperattività.

A 11 anni ha ricevuto in regalo la sua prima chitarra con la quale, suonando da autodidatta ha iniziato a scrivere le sue canzoni e a esibirsi in festival e spettacoli locali.

A soli 16 anni ha lasciato la scuola e si è trasferita prima a New York e poi a Los Angeles dove, nel 2002, ha pubblicato il suo primo disco Let go, che ha venduto oltre venti milioni di copie nel mondo, le ha portato un’enormità di premi e nomination e l’ha fatta entrare nel Guinness dei Primati come la cantante più giovane ad arrivare al primo posto della classifica britannica con un album.

Il singolo di esordio Complicated, immediatamente diventato una hit internazionale, ha raggiunto la prima posizione nelle classifiche di diversi paesi e battuto ogni record di passaggi radiofonici, consacrandola una nuova icona delle giovani generazioni a cui ha dedicato anche una linea d’abbigliamento, la Abbey Dawn.

La sua reinterpretazione di Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door, di Bob Dylan, è stata inclusa nella compilation Peace Song per contrastare il fenomeno dei bambini soldato.

Il suo secondo lavoro Under my skin uscito nel 2004, ha venduto più di 7 milioni di copie.

Nell’autunno 2005 ha realizzato una reinterpretazione di Imagine di John Lennon per un’iniziativa a favore di Amnesty International.

Nello stesso anno ha contribuito alla colonna sonora del film d’animazione Spongebob e dato la voce a Heather, un personaggio del film Over the Hedge.

Il terzo album, The Best Damn Thing, del 2007 primo in classifica in ben 12 paesi, ha venduto oltre 8 milioni di copie.

Nel 2010, mentre scriveva il suo terzo disco, ha sfornato il brano Alice per la colonna sonora del film Alice in Wonderland della Disney, collaborato alla canzone Wavin’ Flag for Haiti per raccogliere fondi da destinare alle persone terremotate di Haiti e fondato The Avril Lavigne Foundation a favore di giovani con disabilità e malattie gravi.

Goodbye Lullaby, messo in commercio nel marzo 2011 è stato seguito, due anni dopo, dall’omonimo Avril Lavigne.

Nel marzo 2015 ha parlato pubblicamente, attraverso la rivista People Magazine, della malattia di Lyme che l’ha costretta a un lungo periodo di riposo.

Nel 2019 ha sfornato Head Above Water e, nel 2022, ha visto la luce il settimo album in studio dal titolo Love Sux e ricevuto una stella sulla Walk of Fame per i suoi vent’anni di carriera.

La sua prima raccolta di successi Avril Lavigne: Greatest Hits è del 2024.

È partita con testi che contenevano messaggi d’autostima e di energia, parlato di argomenti personali, ha fatto ballare e emozionare la gioventù di mezzo pianeta.

È stata una ribelle, una bad girl e una delle prime artiste che ha mostrato come essere ragazze forti in abiti larghi.

Sebbene potesse sembrare un fenomeno passeggero, da oltre vent’anni continua a ispirazione le giovani generazioni col suo look, gli argomenti che tocca e la sua carica travolgente.

FRANCESCO CAVESTRI in concerto a Milano per JazzMi il 31 ottobre ’23

Martedì 31 ottobre Francesco Cavestri sarà protagonista della serata "Halloween Night" a Milano in occasione dell'8^edizione della prestigiosa rassegna JAZZMI all'interno di una delle più importanti istituzioni culturali a livello internazionale, la Triennale di Milano: alle ore 18 una lezione/concerto (talk) in Sala Agorà dal titolo "Jazz e Hip- Hop due generi fratelli", condotta da Cavestri in solo piano (ingresso libero) e alle ore 19.30 seguirà il concerto in trio all'interno del Teatro della Triennale, con cui la nuova generazione di jazz italiano formata dal trio di Cavestri darà il via al trittico di eventi dell'Halloween Night, che si concluderà con la performance della Sun Ra Arkestra, una delle formazioni più longeve nel panorama del jazz moderno. Cavestri sarà accompagnato da due musicisti tra i più promettenti della scena musicale hip-hop ed elettronica: il bassista Riccardo Oliva e il batterista Joe Allotta. 

Francesco Cavestri, dopo aver presentato il suo progetto in diverse città e Festival con successo di pubblico e di critica sia in Italia - come il Bologna Jazz Festival, il Bravo Caffè e la Cantina Bentivoglio di Bologna,  l'Alexanderplatz e la Casa del Jazz a Roma, Time in Jazz a Berchidda - che a Boston (USA) al Wally's Jazz Club, e aver ricevuto il "Premio Strada del jazz 2023" come il giovane pianista jazz che unisce presente e futuro,  continua il suo tour in una delle più prestigiose rassegne che riporta Milano al centro del jazz. 

La lezione-concerto (talk) attraverserà le origini del jazz e dell'hip hop, passando per gli artisti che più hanno navigato tra i due generi, sviluppando momenti teorici volti alla trasmissione delle conoscenze accompagnati da momenti concertistici e di ascolto che avvicinino i partecipanti all'essenza di questa musica.

Il concerto attraverserà invece diverse atmosfere musicali: dalla presentazione di alcuni brani originali di Francesco Cavestri contenuti nel suo album "Early 17", ad altri appartenenti alla scena hip-hop, new-soul e jazz degli ultimi anni a cui appartengono anche gli altri due musicisti, fino a reinterpretazioni e tributi a giganti come Robert Glasper, John Coltrane, Radiohead e la presentazione di una colonna sonora originale che Francesco Cavestri ha realizzato di recente per RAIplay sound, il tutto  in una continua ricerca dell'innovazione e di un sound all'avanguardia. Durante il concerto verrano presentati anche alcuni brani contenuti nel nuovo album di Cavestri, in uscita a breve, che presenta tra gli altri la collaborazione del grande Paolo Fresu. 

"Il jazz è di per sé un genere che va oltre i generi" dice Cavestri "la naturalezza tipica del jazz segue a uno studio attento, un approfondimento, una consapevolezza…che permette di spingersi fuori dai confini, esplorare" dice Francesco in un'intervista per Rai Radio 1.

"il mio desiderio è che i giovani si avvicinino al jazz con la consapevolezza che è alle radici dei generi che ascoltano, che ascoltiamo, tutti i giorni", queste parole di Francesco, come pure il leitmotiv della sua musica, sono le basi su cui si articola il progetto, con il jazz a fungere da fulcro creativo di una ricerca sonora che indaga a fondo le sue ramificazioni.

Saint John on the Island of Patmos, about 1545-55

Woodcut

Virgilius Solis

(German, 1514-1562)

Christian tradition says that after Christ's death, John the Evangelist was exiled to Aegean island Patmos, where he composed the Book of Revelation based on a series of prophetic visions. Here, Saint John gazes upward toward a vision of the woman of the apocalypse (traditionally interpreted as the Virgin Mary) in the top left corner. The artist's composition implies that John's vision was partially inspired by his isolation within nature-portrayed in a wide expanse featuring dramatic peaks and fir trees, castles, farms, shepherds, and even a merchant's ship on a vast harbor.

Desperate Housewives: Gabrielle Solis - Type 3w2

Gabby is carefree, materialistic and caring. She spent her early life working her way out of poverty and continues to enjoy the finer things in life.

At her best, Gabby learns to be less dependent on material things for her happiness and to accept the simpler things in life. She starts to be less concerned with how others see her and works harder on helping the people she loves. This can be seen through more of her interactions as a mother and wife when Carlos is blind and in need of her support.

At her worst, Gabby can be narcissistic and self indulgent. She will put her needs above others and becomes very careless towards the feelings of others. This can be seen with how she embarks on an affair with John Rowland due to feeling like she needs attention and isn’t receiving any from Carlos.

Gabby doesn’t like being alone and will often be searching for a partner to help take care of her and offer her a rich and lavish world. When she first meets Carlos she is a working model but decides to settle with him as she believes he is wealthy and will give her a good life. While they are divorced she almost immediately begins to date and it can be seen that she ends up marrying another man that is powerful and rich. Ultimately she finds that her initial relationship with Carlos was more than just convenience and that they share a deep connection and love for each other.

Gabby is very determined and confident in her own abilities. She is hardworking and pushes herself to be better than others. She desperately wanted to escape her problematic childhood and make a name for herself, which she was able to do through her modelling career. When she loses her wealth she begins to lose a large part of her identity and resolves to one day be rich again.

While, Gabby is very concerned with amassing her own worth through achievements and things, she is also deep down very caring, kind and friendly. She is a good friend to all of the ladies and wants to be part of their group. She builds strong relationships with each woman and remains especially loyal to Bree after seeing all she is willing to do for her.

Gabby has a wing 2 as she is very people oriented and extroverted. She likes to validate herself through how others see her accomplishments and achievements.

Tri-type: 3w2 - 7w6 - 9w8

Some quotes to describe Gabby’s motivations:

“Good friends share more than just gossip and brunch, they share enemies too!”

“Me?! I'm going to be stuck! A single mother raising a child alone! Haggling with lawyers on who gets the kid at Christmas. My American dream is officially dead.”

“It's a Mexican hangover cure. It's the only thing I inherited from my family that's actually worth anything.”

“There's this one thing that she did that was incredibly moving. She came up to me, and within two seconds of touching my bag, she knew it was expensive.”

“Wait. It's not a lame ass party anymore because I'm here now.”

“I just paid a make-up artist five hundred bucks to do my face, do you really think I wanna march down the aisle looking like I just ate a popsicle?!”

Mary Alice [about Gabby]: “Gabrielle Solis, who lives down the block, brought a spicy paella. Since her modelling days in New York, Gabrielle had developed a taste for rich food... and rich men. Carlos, who worked in mergers and acquisitions, proposed on their third date. Gabrielle was touched when tears welled up in his eyes. But she soon discovered this happened every time Carlos closed a big deal. Gabrielle liked her paella piping hot. However, her relationship with her husband was considerably cooler.”

Carlos: “So, that's what this is about... you're competing with Bob and Lee.” Gaby: “Pfft. That's ridiculous. This is about Juanita. I'm building her self esteem and giving her a chance to shine. And if a couple of same-sex parents end up crying at home in their silk kimonos, so be it.”

Juanita: “First, kissing. Then, get married. Then, he buys me presents.” Gaby: “Oh my God, you are my daughter.”

🚗⚽️🎨🎭🔬🌲🌷 for whoever you'd like!!

taylor!!! you spoil me!!! i’m gonna try and break this up a little to give my girls a fair shake (*❦ω❦) under the cut because loooooong!

elliot honeysett ✣

🚗 driving: i think this well-known but elliot drives like a fucking maniac. she SHOULDN’T, she is a COP, but post-reaping ell can let her full colors show and she really enjoys just cranking the music and driving at whatever speed she feels the most comfortable with. she’s pretty good at maneuvering a vehicle in dire circumstances too because she has no regard for her own safety when she’s in The Zone(TM).

⚽️ sports: she doesn’t do them! she did soft ball when she was in school and like that was it. she really is not super athletic most of the time--she’s good at running, and she’s good at pushing herself to make sure she’s not going to fucking die, but that’s like. it. she’s not inherently athletic and also doesn’t have any desire to be.

🌲 surviving in the wilderness: THE BEST! elliot’s biggest skill is survival. she’s always been a  nature girl, always spent a lot of time out in the woods just fucking around, and so she’s got a pretty good grip on what you can and can’t eat, how to stay warm, etc. ain’t nobody got the survivor gene like elliot do.

🎭 performance art/acting: you know, i actually think she’s pretty good at acting? she can’t lie for shit, but she’s so expressive that i think if she applied herself she could be a great actress. idk, it’s kind of a toss up because she wouldn’t be able to hide her true feelings very well, lmao.

isolde khan ✣

🎨 art: a purveyor of fine arts, but an artist she is not. as aforementioned, isolde likes a good paint and sip for herself, and she’s gotten the opportunity to purchase a few pieces of fine art for her own personal collection, but she is certainly no artist herself. she just knows what she likes to spend all day looking at, and this goes for people and art.

🔬 scientific pursuits: does testing the hypothesis of how many times she can piss john off before he comes absolutely unglued count? soli has quite a calculating mind, but it lends itself more to charisma and picking people apart than it does for science. the only theory she’s frequently testing out is ‘if i do exactly what i feel, then i’m gonna get whatever i want’.

🌷 taking care of living things: please, please god, please do not ask isolde to keep your plants alive when you’re on vacation. she can keep precisely three things alive: joseph, her pet snake cordelia, and herself. do not expect anything else.

“We are living in something of a golden age of fingerstyle guitarists. This glut can be both a blessing and a curse, as it becomes increasingly difficult for even the most discerning of fans to distinguish one player from the next, however capable these players might be.

It is always a pleasure, then, to hear the ways in which the braver and brighter guitarists re-think the tradition from the ground up and recast it in their own image. Enter guitarist Matthew J. Rolin, who plays as if he was born with a dreadnought in his hands. The Ohio-based guitarist’s artistic leaps in recent years are rivaled only by those of Daniel Bachman, another once-precocious player formerly in the John Fahey / Jack Rose mold who has over the years transcended the idiom to create his own singular, deeply personal music. Rolin’s latest LP, the double album The Dreaming Bridge, makes similar strides.

For many practitioners of this style, the first and perhaps most challenging feat is to escape the gargantuan shadow of Fahey. Some do this by adding other instruments or field recordings to their DADGAD ruminations; some opt to play electric. Of course, Fahey did all of those things, too. Better still to have not been directly influenced by Fahey in the first place: Rolin’s initial embrace of the acoustic guitar was inspired not by Fahey himself, but rather by Fahey-influenced guitarists like polymath Jim O’Rourke and trickster prodigy Ryley Walker.

This vicarious influence is exemplified by Rolin’s distinctive, at times irreverent approach to guitar soli. While the influence of Walker’s nimble 12-string probing is evident on tunes like Rolin’s impressionistic “10:30 AM,” and while the guitarist’s patiently unfolding, contemplative “Weeping Willow” indeed recalls O’Rourke’s masterpiece Happy Days, Rolin remains very much his own man, with his own idiosyncratic approach. This is clear from the first notes of The Dreaming Bridge’s opening track “Pinhole,” which introduces Rolin’s affinity for shimmering, almost choral, reverb, the effect doubling as a compositional element. Similarly, on the overtone-rich “Drown,” Rolin’s virtuosic playing is practically a duet with its own echo, an effect deployed not to obscure, but to buoy. This deep attention to atmosphere serves a crucial function on The Dreaming Bridge, which sparkles throughout with a strident, Zen-like focus

Then there are the tunes themselves. Terrific tunes! Like William Tyler—another possible influence—Rolin, despite largely working from the necessarily limited palette of instrumental solo guitar music, thinks like a songwriter. This more traditional approach can be heard on tracks like “Moonlight” and “Backyard Blues” which follow a compositional logic complete with verses and choruses. Rolin performs these compositions beautifully; as a player he is dexterous and dynamic, with a light and agile touch reminiscent of early Will Ackerman or Alex De Grassi.

Album highlight “Hallucinations” features saxophonist Patrick Shiroishi’s keening, double tracked reed work, which at times simulates the sound of a two violins playing cat and mouse between the stereo channels. Rolin wisely cedes center stage to Shiroishi for the track’s first third, supplying gently supportive arpeggios beneath, before the sax fades and Rolin responds. There is something about the unexpected combination of sax and acoustic guitar—not exactly easy bedfellows—that brings to mind both postmodern chamber ensemble Entourage and progressive new age pluralists Shadowfax.

Rolin is joined by partner and collaborator Jen Powers on the meditative and marvelous “When I Could See,” a painterly duet for two dulcimers (one Appalachian, one hammered) that is as rich and transporting as their excellent duo LP released last year.

“Bells” (not an Albert Ayler cover), a tone poem for singing bowls, crickets, water, and the ringing of various small bells, eventually gives way to the massive sidelong title track. Structured a bit like a canon, “The Dreaming Bridge” inventively and somewhat impishly simulates aspects of post-Takoma guitar music using some unlikely tools: electric guitar, a looper, and various fuzz and distortion pedals. Note the way the tube-rattling distorted guitar begins substituting for the reverberating whole notes that would typically be the job of the thumb in a traditional Travis picking tune. The sidelong piece, its mood somewhere between apocalyptic and oddly triumphal, gradually builds and crests for over 15 minutes before its waves of stoner tumult and slo-mo tremolo twang begin to recede. We are left with nearly three full minutes of the sound of rushing water cascading from rain gutters. It’s as if the guitarist, satisfied with the web he has just spun, has placed his instrument in its case and has stopped to listen to that other music all around us, and invites us to do the same. You’d be wise to accept this challenge, but not before listening to The Dreaming Bridge, an early candidate for one of 2021’s best guitar records, and Rolin’s finest work to date. Keep two eyes on this guy.” - James Toth

This album called is ‘Wayfaring Strangers: Guitar Soli’. A fascinating collection of solo guitar work spanning from the 60s to the 80s and in the style usually associated with the likes of John Fahey, Leo Kottke and Robbie basho. Yet this album consists entirely of lesser known names. Some Spotify artist pages don’t even list any other songs than the one included on this album.

Linked here is my favorite song from the album.
