Dillon live. Still not sure what to make of her music. Here are some photos from her gig.

*places a coyote skull on the table* Soooo here’s a prompt for a Jason xJazz fic. Our lovebirds are getting serious to the point of discussing marriage. When Dick finds out, he immediately gets one of those mail-order ordinations and insists of officiating at the wedding. Shenanigans ensue!

As someone who isnt even able to drink yet, none of my friends have had weddings yet and I know jack shit about weddings and how they work. I shall throw this prompt to the rest of y’all because this is adorable and just incredible. I’d love to see how people run with this idea

GONDRAMAZ ACOLHE O PROJETO “DACORDAMADEIRA” DO MÚSICO QUINÉ TELES

Será no deslumbrante cenário da aldeia do Gondramaz que o músico Quiné Teles apresenta o projeto “DaCorDaMadeira” no próximo dia 2 de setembro às 22 horas

Integrado no programa XJAZZ, promovido pela Agência para o Desenvolvimento Turístico das Aldeias do Xisto em colaboração com o Jazz ao Centro Clube, Quiné Teles apresenta na idílica aldeia do Gondramaz o seu projeto DaCorDaMadeira, no qual participam também  Rita Marques (voz) e Nuno Caldeira (guitarra/voz).

Este trabalho nasceu em 2001 a partir de uma viagem ao imaginário da África Austral. É fruto das vivências musicais e extra-musicais do autor e reflete um universo muito personalizado da música tradicional, portuguesa e do mundo, transportada para a contemporaneidade.

Com a introdução de uma voz feminina, guitarra electro-acústica e a utilização das novas tecnologias na música, DaCorDaMadeira apresenta atualmente um espetáculo com um conjunto de matizes diversos que passam pela recriação de belíssimos temas do cancioneiro popular assim como a reinvenção de trava-línguas, numa perspetiva de worldmusic.

Tendo editado em 2008 o seu primeiro álbum a solo (da cor da madeira), Quiné Teles prepara atualmente o seu segundo registo discográfico, a lançar em 2017.

O Município de Miranda do Corvo disponibiliza transportes a partir da Praça José Falcão, mediante inscrição no Posto de Turismo ou na Biblioteca Municipal Miguel Torga.

Entrada gratuita.

Recommendations for XJAZZ, Berlin

So,the biggest Jazz Festival of Berlin is just around the corner. From the 3rd to the 7th of May 2017 genres will be bend and melted in more than 80 g. So, since it’s not that easy to find your way through all those names and different styles, I took some time to find out who you should see (if you were me) - one of them already being sold out. That’s Fink’s Sunday Night Blues Club. I love Fink but I’m still pondering if I ever want to see him playing live again. The last time was quite an emotional journey for me. 

Well, here are five bands I want to recommend to you. First of all (an no surprise): Liima. I still love their debut album “ii”. It’s always a very fascinating experience to see those four creating sounds and music...when you’re able to focus on that and not dance with your mind drifting into other spheres. 

Secondly: Peter Broderick. I think to follow Peter Brodericks releases is quite some work. Sometimes it feels like he is always releasing something, some side project, some work with friends, some solo stuff. I think his last solo release was the stunning “Grunewald” EP which was recorded in just one night in a church in Berlin, surrounded by a thick forest. During XJAZZ he’ll play in a church again but this time surrounded by Kreuzberg. I expect beauty. 

Ever felt like being part of a group without being part of the group? That’s how I feel recommending Martin Heyne. Broderick, Efterklang (which just in case you haven’t known it yet: are partly Liima), Heyne...they know each other, worked together and played together. Heyne works with electric guitar and loops creating amazing soundscapes. He shows you what loops are for. 

Ok ok, there are some artist who don’t belong to this group and you should check out like Suff Daddy & the Lunch Birds. He’ll play a Hip Hop live set and just just a lame DJ set, so we all should get excited about this and since it is freezing cold outside, it’s also a good opportunity to do some warm up dance.

And last but not least: Dillon. Her voice sounds like from a different time but still rooted in today. She makes darkness bearable. And since she describes her next album an “album of love” we even may feel the sunshine in her voice in our souls. 

For more information on who plays where and other well needed informations, please go to http://www.xjazz.net/berlin-2017/.

See you there,

Dörte

USA/VENEZUELA/SERBIA/KENYA/SINGAPORE/ARMENIA: Band of Sisters: Music Action Women Collective Captures the Global Sound of Women’s Hard-Won Triumphs

Band of Sisters: Music Action Women Collective Captures the Global Sound of Women’s Hard-Won Triumphs

Around the world, women are fighting bold uphill battles, insisting on their artistic integrity and leadership in music and in their societies. They are fighting to be artists, not women musicians or female composers. Along the way, they are transforming their communities--and making some diverse, kick-ass music.

Music Action Lab invited a handful of these women, hailing from Philly to Yerevan to Singapore, to form a band and create music together. After a residency in San Francisco that incorporated social activism training, entrepreneurial support, and musical engagement, these six artists recorded Music Action Women Collective: The EP (release date: September 20, 2019).

Drawing on electronic and club music, Latin alt-trad, jazz, contemporary classical, and their own idiosyncratic influences, this collective of six wildly talented musicians crafted compositions that showcase their power and perspective. Some (“Nazeni”) suggest traditional song structures, some explore profoundly poetic territory (“Lullaby,” an ode to a yet-to-be-born daughter). Some are seriously groove based (the super funky “Breathe,” the Balkan blast of “Rules Change”), some run free (the wild sway of “Hide”). The compositions all highlight women’s varied and nuanced perspectives.

Unlike many international exchanges, this project put musical chemistry first, building a band, not ticking off geographic or other boxes. This approach yielded a wonderfully cohesive group that avoids the pitfalls of many cross-cultural mashups, creating instead a sonic sandbox where the participants could experiment, learn, and inspire one another.

“The community we made with this project is just a seed, a tiny point,” reflects Serbian saxophonist, composer, band leader, and music therapist Jasna Joviċeviċ, “but if nourished carefully, it could grow into the place where we find shelter, a place to rest for the next giant step, and help us become stronger every time.” 

“This project was a life-changing experience,” explains singer, songwriter, and pianist Sevana Tchakerian, who leads several ensembles and education initiatives from her base in Armenia. “I had the luxury to find myself with a diversified and motivated all-female cohort of professional musicians, from around the world, for two whole weeks. Being able to create music and work on the challenges of being a female musician in a male-dominated industry has been a catalyst to reorient my professional, artistic and personal life.”

About the Collective

From five continents, the Collective members specialize in a range of styles and genres. They include:

Liz Draper (USA/ bass) -- A classically and jazz-trained versatile bassist, Liz has performed, recorded, and toured internationally with such groups as the Grammy Award-winning Okee Dokee Brothers and Soul Asylum. She has led a diverse range of projects, including Black Blondie, an all-female alternative R&B group featured on the same stage as Questlove and Amy Winehouse, the all-female Carpscale Orkester, and Up The Mountain Down The Mountain, an acoustic chamber doom folk metal project.

Barb Duncan, Muzikaldunk “The MD” (US / Drums) -- Drummer, producer, and educator Muzikaldunk is a Philadelphia-born and -raised musician who has worked as a concert and session drummer, produced music for up-and-coming artists and taught young musicians how to perfect their craft. A community advocate and activist, she is developing a rehearsal and audio/visual studio in West Philly for experienced and novice creators to have a safe space to work, network and build. She is also a member of the alternative rock band JJX and regularly performs with The Remixologist and The Sea Tease. In 2018 Muzikaldunk was honored with the HIT LIKE A GIRL Technology Breakthrough Award of 2018. She also released her first instrumental album “GOLD-MIND”.

Maria Fernanda Gonzalez (Venezuela / Bandola llanera) -- Maria Fernanda is a Barquisimeto-based multi-instrumentalist and journalist. After years of studying cuatro, mandolin and violin, Maria decided to take up the bandola llanera, an obscure Venezuelan instrument with few well-known female performers. She has performed internationally at Festival of Música llanera the Silbón (Venezuela), the festival Girara de Oro (Colombia), the 32nd Music Office Curitiba (Brazil), The International Jazz Festival Barquisimeto (Venezuela) and Folklorico Summer Festivals (Portugal and Spain). She recently toured Greece, Turkey, Cyprus, France, and Italy, performing joropos, a traditional music of the high plains of Venezuela. She teaches master classes on the bandola llanera and is working on codifying and writing a new universal teaching method for the instrument.

Jasna Joviċeviċ  (Serbia / Saxophones, Woodwinds, Percussion) -- Jasna is a saxophone, bass clarinet, flute, and spacedrum player and composer from Serbia. Jasna received her Bachelor’s degree from Franc Liszt Music Academy in Budapest, Hungary, and Master’s degree in composition from York University in Toronto. She has also studied music in Serbia, Brazil, US, and Austria, won grants to artist residency programs worldwide, and performed her work around Europe and North America at various international competitions and festivals. A music educator and therapist, Jasna also is the founder and leader of the all-female “New Spark Jazz Orchestra,” featuring Balkan women in jazz. She has recorded several solo albums (“Flow Vertical,” “Invented Reality” and “The Sound of Birds”) and contributed to more than a dozen other recording projects.

Claire Marie Lim (Singapore / Electronics, vocals) -- Claire is a music technologist and interdisciplinary artist specializing in audio production, writing, and technology, and has worked with organizations such as Beats By Girlz, SisterSMATR, Girls Rock Campaign, and Women in Music. She is a proud DJ for Alphabet Rockers, a Grammy-nominated group that spreads messages of social justice and empowerment to children and youth via hip hop music and dance.

Kasiva Mutua, Music Director (Kenya) -- An alumna of Giant Steps’ Music Action Lab 2.0, Kasiva Mutua is an acclaimed percussionist and advocate of women's rights. A percussionist since childhood, Kasiva is known for her seamless abilities to fuse African music with modern styles crossing hip-hop, reggae, and jazz. Kasiva has deep experience in musical collaborations, such as Coke Studio Africa, The Nile Project, 1Beat, and Xjazz. Kasiva has worked with such musicians as Kirk Whalum (US), Oliver Mtukudzi (Zimbabwe), Suzanna Owiyo (Kenya), Dina El Wedidi (Egypt), Kidum (Burundi) and reggae artist Anthony B (Jamaica).

Sevana Tchakerian (Armenia / Vocals, keys, accordion, flute) -- Sevana is a French-Armenian musician, songwriter, educator and tour manager.  In 2012, she co-founded the Collectif Medz Bazar, a multi-ethnic band creating traditional and original songs melding Middle-Eastern and Balkan folk, hip-hop, chanson, cabaret, jazz, and Latin influences. In 2015, Sevana moved to Armenia to initiate Tsap-Tsapik, an inclusive music program aiming at rural educational development and pedagogical innovation. She is working to publish the first preschool music education curriculum in Armenian. She has created Dayl’Ayl Production, a tour management agency to promote Armenian musical talent internationally.

About the Project

The inaugural edition of Music Action Women, a social impact-driven music residency bringing together outstanding female artists committed to advancing the causes of women through music, was held in early 2019 in partnership with the University of San Francisco and in its Performing Arts for Social Justice program, the Fellows enjoyed a dynamic schedule combining interactive learning workshops and rehearsals facilitated by domain experts, hosted in the historic Presentation Theater.

Music Action Women was produced by Giant Steps, a music-meets-social action initiative.
