NEWS m BRian Olive

new video of “Jubilee Line” You might know Brian Olive from his work in the Greenhornes or the Soledad Brothers. But now it’s time to get to know Brian Olive the solo artist. His selftitled debut came out last year on Alive, and he’s getting ready to tour Europe. In the meantime, check out his new video of “Jubilee Line,” which was shot on the roof of Olive’s Cincinnati recording studio, and is directed by Pete Ohs. “Olive drifts through an array of styles and imaginative arrangements during the album’s 33 minutes with “King of the Road” aplomb.” -- PopMatters “Unexpected is just how much musical ground is covered in this gem of a record.” -- The Agit Reader “Reshaping the past, the album presents an alternate musical history where linear evolution is replaced by spontaneous genesis, and what a wonderful creation it is.” –- Goldmine “The self-titled record is more gypsy pop than garage rock, more of a 60’s love-in than a nod to Howlin’ Wolf.” –- The Waster “Olive clearly scores high on the eclecticism checklist, but he’s also a fine songwriter, generating memorable tunes regardless of his stylistic bag.” –- All Music Guide

RADIO MOSCOW Brain Cycles Storming out from Story City, Iowa, Radio Moscow have been making an impressive name for themselves over the past few years with their raucous amalgamation of blues, garage, and stoner rock that shines pure and uncompromising. While comparisons to a heavier version of The Black Keys are inevitable, not too shockingly the band was first “discovered” by The Keys’ Dan Auerbach who produced their debut album. Radio Moscow has made an enormous leap since their debut, with their most recent offering Brain Cycles, a fuzzy, psychedelic, time shifting, jam inducing, freak-out. -- Exploding In Sound
