ThriftyBeau O'Reilly March 20, 2021  Uvulittle Records Beau says about the album: “I needed some intrigue. I challenged myself to make something new during the weird year that was 2020. I enjoy writing songs with different people, and felt interested in what would happen if I had to keep the instrumentation spare. I sent lyrics out to friends, they sent back demos, and most of it was recorded with no rehearsal. I accepted the keys and tempos my collaborators offered, though I enjoyed figuring in little musical touches and... [more] |

To The NinesLadyscissors March 2, 2017  Uvulittle Records Showing off their lovely vocal arrangements, the album ranges from REM-like pop to moody, hypnotic rock, a la early Velvet Underground. Beautiful female harmonies often float over crunchy guitars with evocative thoughtful lyrics that feel urgent and politically potent. And catchy. The record is catchy. Even the background vocals will get stuck in your head. "Madison band Ladyscissors covers a lot of giddy and playful pop territory..." -- Tone Madison |
Lovelovelovelove STOP loveloveloveThe Crooked Mouth December 7, 2016  Uvulittle Records Third release by Chicago's The Crooked Mouth. Sharp, confident and rollicking. LoveloveloveloveSTOPlovelovelove shows off the band's new line-up to good effect. The songs are focused, intelligent and funny. The musicianship tasteful and just slightly off-kilter. The arrangements show off a playfulness that only comes with the confidence gained from hundreds and hundreds of gigs. As always, Crooked Mouth displays a strong theatrical bent as they mash up old-timer string band sounds... [more] |

every thing everythingStephanie Rearick April 15, 2015  Uvulittle Records A return to form. The piano, trumpet and vocals are front and center with the occasional foray into casio and loops. Combining her classically-tinged piano tendencies with her love of looping Casio beats, trumpets and voice, Rearick exudes confidence and creates a universe of music all her own. Her soundscape is rich. Cheery, creepy, lush, beautiful and very dreamlike. A gorgeous sorrow. A sublime disorientation. Memories. |
Holy BonesMary Bue March 2, 2015  Self Released Holy Bones is an indie-pop, musical commentary regarding a frazzled & hungry society.

Mary Bue’s 6th studio album is a creative shift from her typical piano-driven singer-songwriting, funded in part by a career development grant from the Arrowhead Regional Arts Council of Minnesota. The impetus for Holy... [more] |

Yes FaceThe Crooked Mouth November 7, 2013  Uvulittle Records Yes Face picks up where their debut ended. A little less country, perhaps.. First, though, the recording is lovely. Simple, complex, beautiful... It breathes. Deeply. As expected, the vocal arrangements are well conceived and executed flawlessly by people with an obvious passion for such perfections. The instrumentation is tasteful - bringing banjo and bluegrass sounds to folky show tune-y (almost) rock numbers. There's a nod to the blues in there, too. Fun, serious, sad and furious.... [more] |

DreamworldStephanie Rearick April 11, 2013  Uvulittle Records Stephanie Rearick Jr. - on casio, voice, loops and trumpet. Stephanie Rearick takes her classical/cabaret/pop in a beatier, bouncier direction. "Like her previous work, Dreamworld presents colliding genre influences, eclectic covers, and whimsical notions. The difference is that Rearick sticks mostly to voice and cheap keyboards. She revels in the latter's goofy vibrato and tinny percussion sounds, relying on loops to flesh out the songs... while every track uses Casios, the album... [more] |
