i told jim i would post info about this show. so here i am!

for all those who are interested... amy millan is the beautiful female voice for the band stars.

from rotate's site:

6-MAY-05 AMY MILLAN / JON-RAE & THE RIVER POOR ALEX ALL AGES $13.00

awesome - thanks for the info willow.

Alas, I'm with my kids that night, so i'll have pass.


...jim

aw, that's too bad.

wayne from cuff the duke told me that he's heard amy's 4-song demo, which he describes has "mind-blowing" and "fucking awesome."

sound-wise, he said it sounds "rootsy."
i'm so curious to hear it!

on a sidenote, wayne also says of sarah: "she's great. she's really great!"

back on topic, i don't think i'm going to check out this show. i don't know who the headlining artist is, plus $13 is a bit steep for me right now.

but! wayne said that amy might be opening for cuff the duke in the future. if that actually happens, i will be ALL OVER that.

back to listening to my interview with wayne, so i can write my article...

you interviewed wayne and asked about sarah? nice.
he is really easy to talk too.

im going to try see this show.

i loved the stars show last week. i had so much fun, but being in good company helped too

I wanna hear those demo tracks really bad......her voice is just.....like.....totally.

not to be an annoying bragger but lets just say a friend of a friend gave me a bunch of her demos, way more than 4.. and yeah they are awesome. Isnt the album slated for this year/summer?

^ oi, that's awesome! i can't wait to hear her solo stuff myself. this year sounds about right for a release date, though i'm not entirely sure.

cameron - i didn't specifically ask wayne about sarah. he knows i'm a fan and we were just talking about upcoming shows. he did a solo show at poor alex the same night as the sarah show. i was like, "gah, sorry, i can't come see you, i'm seeing sarah slean!"
he's something of a friend (cuff the duke orginated in oshawa, which is also my hometown). he's a great guy.

if you end up going to the show, let me know how it is! i doubt i'll end up going... $13 is just a little to much for me to afford at the moment. plus i don't want to see amy just open for another artist; i'd rather see her headline.

^^talking to you last night i figured things out.

im not sure if i will see this show either as the friend i was going with has commited her funds to some band name Coldplay?

rilo, does it sound like stars or is it comparable to anything else?

Ummm its a bit more country/folk tinged, earthy is a great adjective actually. Definetly not like stars, stars is more dreamy and electric. I actually like stars a lot more. but her solo stuff will probably reach a totally different audience. I want to compare it to sarah harmer but I dont. Their voices are two seperate things but the music I guess is kiiiiiinda similar. But it's good nonetheless! Id highly recommend going to this show if youre in the area, it's going to be great.

i was thinking of feist as well... who i love love loooove. i can't wait to hear amy's stuff. she has the most beautiful voice, so whatever she's singing, i know it'll sound good.
