1+ 1 = 1. Musikalisch gesehen zumindest: 1 Musiker + 1 Musikerin = 1 gute Kombo. Matt Keating (heute bei uns zu Gast) und Cassis and the Sympathies (im Hintergrund mit Akkordeon) starteten ihre Tour als Solo-Artists und haben sich dann zusammengetan, unter dem wunderbaren Namen "Travel Pussy". Wie das Resultat klingt, hört ihr heute bei uns auf dem Balkon. Mehr Infos zu Matt Keating: "After consistently putting out critically acclaimed records throughout the 1990's on the Alias label (Archers of Loaf, Yo La Tengo, American Music Club), and the 2003 Tiltawhirl on POPTONES, the label from Alan McGee, Keating joings the current resurgence of American singer/songwriters with his latest work, Between Customers set for release on Red Parlor Records in Europe and UK May 3rd. BETWEEN CUSTOMERS is a mostly acoustic affair. The songs are subdued and subtle. Keating's characteristic everyman twang juxtaposed against his quirky urban phrasing and lyrical subject matter, make one think of a combination of Willie Nelson and Lou Reed. To quote No Depression "...Keating's songs are elegant in structure, and are packed with wordplay that can amuse, dazzle, or hit way to close to home" Mostly recorded with his longtime bass player and co-producer Jason Mercer (Ron Sexsmith, Ani DiFranco) in various hotel rooms across America as they toured in support of his most recent double album, QUIXOTIC (Kealon 2008), BETWEEN CUSTOMERS has the feel of a road-trip with a good friend. Intimate stories abound." Mehr steht hier:
