Detective Blind Debut Single 'Tell Me' Out Now
Indie rock sister act Detective Blind's debut single 'Tell Me' is out now. Eldest sister Montgomery is billed as a “15-year old Broadway Vet,” but otherwise, there’s not much online about this young band (yet) except that they’re sisters, they used to be a cover band and now they rock.
Can’t wait to hear more from these sisters.

Billy and the Kids :: Grateful Mahalo
You know what they say: “Don’t read the books if you don’t want to know.”
OK, I’ve never heard anyone actually say that, but I’ve been reading a lot of Grateful Dead material lately. I read Phil Lesh’s book, then Billy’s book, and now I’m reading Garcia: An American Life. Anyway, Billy’s book left me conflicted. On one hand, you read the book to hear the thoughts of the people involved, and then sometimes you’re sorry you did.
But whatever I may have thought of the book of the personality Billy projected through it, he has been behind the drumkit for some of my most favorite music ever. Bill Kreutzmann recently celebrated his 75th birthday with a string of three live-streamed show with his band Billy and the Kids. Two of those shows have appeared at the Live Music Archive and are definitely worth your time and I wish him nothing but the best and I wish everyday was Bill Kreutzmann’s birthday, because all of this is great.
As if Billy on drums, Reed Mathis on bass and Billy Strings wasn’t enough, how about saxophone?! No? Still not enough? How about appearances from Santana?! If that’s not enough, you’re in the wrong place. Anyway, here’s the two live sets from the Archive and some videos that I’ve been hanging out with.

Faran Ensemble Live
Israel’s Faran Ensemble live “Mezrab recording from 2015-04-22.”
I first heard Faran Ensemble while looking for music for the Global Elite Music Radio Podcast Supershow and their track “Reflection” appeared on Episode 03.
I couldn’t find a setlist for this show but there was some commentary on the video’s page which is included below.
Enjoy.
“The Faran Ensemble was formed in 2009 by three musicians sharing similar musical vibes and values, who decided to embark together on a spiritual quest. Their journey, expressed in music and sound, reflects the beauty of nature, travelling through different sceneries, from the clean and quiet desert to luscious green hills, sometimes even passing through the hectic noise of the city.
Their instruments belong to the ancient traditions of the east, allowing the musicians to combine mystical sounds with modern influences. In their music, Mediterranean landscapes weave an enchanted soundscape, a magic carpet to take the listener on a voyage to faraway lands.
The ensemble’s name, Faran, refers to Wadi Faran, a dry desert riverbed which in winter fills with water and life and in summer is silent and pristine. The Faran crosses three countries, but ignores all artificial human borders.”
