| | Haggs CD Haggs Discography of CDs
The Haggs: "The Haggs"A long time ago, in a recording studio far, far away, two members of Omaha, Nebraska bands formed a side recording project to explore the multi-step process of writing, recording, performing, engineering, and mixing an entire album with complete and total control. The result was "The Haggs", a fourteen song, 60 minute cd which was recorded slowly and sensually over a four year period.Taking the folk rock songwriting of guitarist Rex Gray and the pop influences of drummer/bassist Steve Aden, "The Haggs" is a blend of several musical styles of the mid-sixties. From the surf-guitar sounds of "B-E-Z" to the Lennon-ish "Lose My Mind" to the Boyce & Hart-inspired "(She's A)Wrecking Ball", the album takes you on a musical trip culminating with "Ukelele", a dreamy Hawaiian chant.In 2005, These same Haggs recorded "Mesmer", pushing their limited talents to new heights. Released in July, 2007 after a long legal battle, it is now available on CDbaby. Check it out. Haggs Songs | 1. | Got Balls |

After the dark and chilling themes of 2006's BLACK CADILLAC, which saw Rosanne Cash dealing with the deaths of her mother, Vivian Liberto, her father, Johnny Cash, and her stepmother, June Carter Cash -- all of whom passed within a two-year span -- one might assume that her next project would move into an even deeper level of bleakness, but with THE LIST, it's immediately clear that she has instead found a more measured place to stand. It's a lovely and redemptive outing that looks back to go forward. When Cash turned 18, her father, alarmed that his daughter only knew the songs that were ...

If Tom Waits had gone punk, it may have sounded something like this creation from Virginians Scott Loving and Ben Shanaberger. Moody, throaty vocals with lyrics that are often darkly humorous are highlighted by edgy, growling guitar riffs and driving rhythms. Some tunes have a slightly alt country twang, while others throb like they came out of Minneapolis in the mid 80’s. Fresh, inventive, and entertaining music.-Mark WaterburyMusic MorselsIndie-Music.com ReviewSwift Ships’ greatness hits you immediately. I’ve never done drugs, but this must be what it feels like when heroin first mixes with an addict’s blood. The key: gut honest songs, performed as if their lives depended upon them. It’s a simple formula, but I imagine many other lesser acts count that high cost first, and then simply decide not to pay it. Swift Ships won’t settle for less.The first name that came to my mind with the opener, “Wedding Day,” was Steve Earle. Granted, these boys don’t sound like outcasts from guitar town. But there’s a similar Earle-ish snarl in their voices and poison in their pens. This first track paraphrases an old Irish song (I think), and you get the impression the character in it will never see his blissful wedding day. “Christ, temptations on the Currituck Sound, you’re the king of ***** up.”While “Wedding Day” moves with a rocking stomp, something like “Nice Guy” stretches out with moody, nearly ambient guitar. Its lyric (not surprisingly) is also a little depressing and self-deprecating. “My friends say they think I drink too much, but I ain’t got nothing better to do.” It’s also hard not to be moved by the resentment driving “Hopeless Kid.” “I’ve been a rebel since I was young, I remember tearing down the back bedroom, I didn’t want to be no one’s stepson.”This is one of those CDs where you can close your eyes, flip through the CD booklet, and randomly point at a song lyric. And each time, you’ll land upon a lyrical gem. Just try it. Put my theory to the test. It's almost science. If the currents are with them, Swift Ships are headed straight for wider acclaim. -Dan MacIntoshIndie-Music.comRevolt Media ReviewSwift Ships, the native Virginians who have now sought port in New York (how cliché can one reviewer be?) takes us back to a decade when guitars mattered with their debut full-length album, Rebel Renaissance. Not the guitars you hear today – the repetitive, “I’m-just-here-because-bands-need-guitars-right?” guitars – but guitars that could tell a song’s story all by themselves if they had to. Leisurely played guitars that seemingly have no real destination until they take you back in time to a musical era when the destination didn’t matter. Only the trip was of any importance. It’s doubtful many of Rebel Renaissance’s 11 tracks cause the guys to break sweats. Actually, Swift Ships describes their style best with a short lyric in the sixth track, “Pursuit Race”: “Chaos puts me to sleep.”Swift Ships describes Rebel Renaissance as being “a swaggering rock and roll western ...

Angela grew up in a household filled with music, either performed by her father on their upright piano or played on the stereo. She recounts, “As a preschooler, my teacher asked me what my favorite TV program was, and I surprised her by saying, 'I don't have a TV, but I like listening to classical music with my dad.'" "The apartment was small enough that nobody could not be a part of it, so it was natural to make her like music," explains Angela’s father, Rich Crandall. "With her mom being out of town for three- to four-day trips [working as a flight attendant], I would take her to my jazz rehearsals.” "I sang with Dad in public for the first time when I was three years old," recalls Angela. "The minister saw me singing after one of Dad’s gigs at Unity Church in Honolulu, and wanted both of us to perform the next time Dad played at the church. So a couple weeks later we did a jazz version of 'Take Me Out to the Ball Game, both of us wearing baseball caps."Under her father’s casual instruction, Angela continued developing her love and ear for music. But it wasn’t until the third-grade that she got her first steady “gig.” “Dad started a weekly jazz jam concert for music-lovers. By performing in front of an attentive jazz audience with experienced ears, I developed both a repertoire and stage presence. Not only that, I was privileged to sing alongside the city’s best professional jazz musicians including Gabe Baltazar, Noel Okimoto, Darryl Pellegrini, and Bruce Hamada, as well ...
