Q&A with J. Tillman (of Fleet Foxes) — Playing @ The EARL, November 21
By Eileen Tilson A few months back I received the new J. Tillman CD to review. Not knowing much about the Tillman, outside of the fact that he was the drummer for Fleet Foxes, I decided I needed to do some serious research. I put in the album, and what came through the speakers blew […]

By Bryan Aiken To paint a picture, it’s three o’clock in the morning, I’m recently returned home from a veritable debacle at a too-packed Star Bar, my shirt is in shreds, and I have beer-hair.
