 Nate Scoble is a solo artist from Los Angeles, California. http://natescoble.bandcamp.com/album/firelight" rel="nofollow - http://natescoble.bandcamp.com/album/firelight  released 15 July 2007 Nate Scoble — guitar, voice Spencer Savage — drums, percussion Michael Gordon — saxophone Rebecca Lynn — violin Nilsie Shields — bass Words and music by Nate Scoble Arranged by Nate Scoble Engineered by Mark Wheaton at Catasonic Studios, Los Angeles "FIRELIGHT is my most 'American' work to date, and hopefully it lets lovers of folk, rock, pop, jazz, fusion, and 'art' and 'world' music come together and swim in one big happy pond. This work was recorded from 2001 to 2007, with my LOVEGIVER bandmates Spencer Savage on drums and percussion and Michael Gordon on saxophone, in the able atmosphere of Catasonic Studios, Mark Wheaton engineering. A blazing violin solo was needed in 'Firelight' (track 01) and Rebecca Lynn provided exactly that; she is also heard in 'Soledad'. I composed most of the songs in a brief mad burst in early 2000 as I greeted the new millienium after life-changing personal events. 'Spiderfly' was written some two years earlier; 'Sunset' in 2001, and 'The Tenants' filled out the procession in 2004. I should have posted these songs much sooner, style consistency be damned. Oh well. You know what? It's all Me, because it's all WE. Thanks, Spencer and Mike. Your playing has been fantastic. It's been great making music with you". Nate Scoble January 16, 2015 Firelight album by Nate Scoble was
released May 12, 2008 on the Nate Scoble label. Nate Scoble co-founded
The Blue Daisies with Nic Greene in 1982 after graduating from
Otis/Parsons. Firelight buy CD music Loud, visceral, and arty in equal
measure, the Daisies contributed significantly to the LA postpunk music
scene, adding Jeffrey Poe, Brad Laner, and later, Steve Stain, to their
lineup. What Makes Donna Twirl? Firelight songs took Nate's liquid,
frenetic guitar and vocals into new territory, with Spencer Savage
briefly along for the ride. Firelight album for sale Following further
projects, Nate penned Startron and the Love Ring, an 'avant-rock opera',
and performed it at Glaxa Studios with Spencer's distinctive percussion
and drumming contributing to great effect. Since then, the two have
continued to collaborate, with Mike Gordon joining them on sax, on the
Firelight and Trystram Street song cycles. These last works see the
music continue to broaden and often become calmly introspective, ranging
from traditional folk-rock influences through jazz and into 'prog'- and
'art-music' streams and pastures. http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?pid=7703491" rel="nofollow - http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?pid=7703491 http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/natescoble" rel="nofollow - http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/natescoble https://myspace.com/nmscoble" rel="nofollow - https://myspace.com/nmscoble http://www.natescoble.com/" rel="nofollow - http://www.natescoble.com/

Listened to this and enjoyed it. Prog Folk isn't one of my strong points, so any comments I make here are pretty worthless really...but this guy seems worth a punt to my own inexperienced ears. The Firelight album was described in one review as "for fans of The Incredible String Band", and they are already included on the site. This post will bump the topic anyway, and maybe Bob or Ken will spot it this time around and set us straight on the matter.

tried to get rid of the oldest backlog of the PF team, and this one gets also a maybe (like Bob) Yeah, folk is part of the music (but it's hardly the only influence), the zaniness giving it a certain proggy twist, but is ot "prog" and furthermore, is "prog folk" or "folk prog"? definitely not sure. I'd say that team like crossover or ecclectic should first get a chance to peek an earful at this before we make it ours (maybe... I'm not convinced more than that). |
