Julian Koster and his singing saw play the Paste studio

Julian Koster visits the Paste offices on Carolling tour julian_koster_singing_saw.jpg

It was as still as a "Silent Night" while we waited for Julian Koster of The Music Tapes (ex-Neutral Milk Hotel)—stopping at the Paste studio during his month-long caroling tour—to play his first note on Badger, his nine-year-old singing saw. Nobody breathed. Then Koster put his bow to the bent metal and a tone as pure as snow on a Christmas morning issued from it. He leapt adeptly from pitch to pitch, performing with quiet grace and an endearing sense of humor, several classic holiday tunes from his October release, The Singing Saw at Christmastime.

The Everybodyfields play the Paste studio

|
We've cavorted with them through the fields of Manchester, caught them on the back steps of The Earl and counted them among the Best of What's Next. And on Friday, much of the Paste staff finally experienced The Everybodyfields live for the first time when the band dropped by for an afternoon performance in our studio.

Duncan Sheik plays the Paste studio

|
duncan_sheik_paste.jpgOnly two dates into his Fall tour, singer-composer Duncan Sheik stopped by the Paste office to preview a few tracks off his upcoming album, Whisper House, due in late Jan. 2009. The songs, which were written by Sheik and librettist Kyle Jarrow, are the musical quotient for the Keith Powell-directed (that's 30 Rock's Toofer to you) production about a boy who comes to live with his aunt in a lighthouse in New England after his father dies in WWII, only to find that there are ghosts and spies around as well.

Matthew Sweet plays the Paste studio

On Thursday afternoon, the Paste staff was treated to a performance by Athens, Ga musician and potter, Matthew Sweet. Although worried about his ability to hit his signature high notes, due to a mysterious road illness, and the feeling his “lunch might come up a little,” Sweet dazzled us through a great mix of songs, both new and old. His set included “Byrdgirl” and “Room to Rock,” from his latest album, Sunshine Lies, and classics such as “Sick of Myself” from 1995’s 100% Fun and “You Don’t Love Me” from 1991’s Girlfriend.


You can catch Sweet on tour all over the U.S. until Thanksgiving. Be sure to check back soon for video of his Paste performance!

Ben Kweller plays the Paste studio

|

Ben Kweller has covered a lot of genres in his musical life, but his forthcoming album Changing Horses (due Jan. '09) is a little bit country. Although under the weather, he stopped by the Paste office late last week to play some tunes (both from the new record and otherwise) while on a tour stop with Whitley in Atlanta.

Kweller treated the office to a sampling of acoustic goodness which included “On My Way” (from On My Way), “Thirteen” (a piano song from Ben Kweller that he adapted to guitar), “Things I Like to Do” (from his tour EP How Ya Lookin’ Southbound? Come In) and “Wantin’ Her Again.”

kathy_mattea.jpg On Wednesday, Kathy Mattea parked her massive tour bus at the Paste office for a four-song acoustic set and interview highlighting her new album Coal. She cut through the rainy day in Decatur with welcome cheeriness, repeatedly making fun of herself, pretending to care about hair, make-up and getting her “good-side” while filming. At 49, she looks chic and youthful.

While we could list the many reasons to love Marc Broussard, we thought one good example might do the trick. While most performers would want to "pick it up from the top" after a slip, Marc had a laugh and decided to keep on rolling! What's not to love?
