Concert Photos: Maybelle’s Music Box at The Grind
I’m still alive, people. Don’t worry. Things have been busy on my end — and I’ve been lazy. Shame on me! Anyway, here are some photos of Salt Lake City-based bluegrass outfit Maybelle’s Music Box performing at my favorite coffee shop in Cedar City, The Grind Coffee House. They’re also available on my Flickr profile. More photos from Cedar City concerts will be available
in the coming days.

Spotlight: Dawn Landes | Female folk artist to embark on month-long tour
Dawn Landes, a Louisville, Kentucky native, performs a certain seductive bluegrass-inflected folk-indie style. Her second album, Fireproof, is set to be released on March 4 via Cooking Vinyl. Landes will be embarking on a month-long tour of the eastern United States starting Feb. 6. Dates are posted after the jump.
“Bodyguard,” posted below, is a nice introduction to the style being exercised by Landes; holding up against the influx of female indie artists doesn’t seem something this musician will find much trouble with.

Spotlight: Reed KD
Reed KD, a northern California-based act with a refreshing indie-centric folk-bluegrass-pop style and a penchant for vocals that sound at least a smidgen influenced by Elliott Smith, are set to release The Ashes Bloom on Feb. 12. The album will be released on Dirty Laundry Records. The two tracks posted below, “Empty Bottles” and “Even If I,” are well-written, well-timed pop songs, and they’re certainly worth an attentive listen.
