Silver Mt. Zion is a group led by founding godspeed you black emperor! guitarist Efrim, together with other godspeed members Sophie and Thierry.
To some extent, Mt. Zion was born out of a desire on the part of the godspeed players to work in a smaller musical ensemble; in effect, to escape some of the constraints that often accompany writing and arranging music democratically with nine musicians. As well, Efrim simply wanted a vehicle to realise some of his own musical ideas that would not necessarily work well within the context of godspeed.

A Silver Mt. Zion had their live debut at Musique Fragile on March 6, 1999.

For the band's second and third records, the line-up expanded to six players, including Becky, Ian, and Jessica, and the band re-named as The Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra and Tra-la-la Band.



Little Wings (K Records)
If the world is about to "rediscover the beauty of songwriting" we should not miss out one of the most talented and interesting musicans of these days. Here we go: Kyle Field aka Little Wings.

Kyle Field is a wandering musician who has collected different people over the years to record and put together his menagerie of Music. Many of his Songs flip-flop back and forth between old school country wing and atmospheric electronic, low-fi slow songs. The combination works to its best effect lounging in your room in the waning hours of the afternoon.

curfew in music centre is 12.30 for tonights gig, might end a little before that though
 
It really was pretty fucking amazing.
They played the closing song of "born into troubles..." which made me really happy. The first encore song with the really minimalist instrumentation and lotsa vocals really blew me away.

My body was sort of trembling in excitment most of the time during the gig.
The new stuff was good but very similiar to their old stuff and other constellation music.

Little Wings did a very warm performance and had a friendly sea captain thing going on. Musically and vocally I thought he was a lot like Will Oldham, which isnt a bad thing. Good stuff all round.

Great audience. Everyone shut the hell up at the quiet parts, unlike at Fly Pan Am. ROCK!!!
 
absolutely brilliant
didn't think much of little wings
asmz were just great
that song in the first encore with all of them singing at the start was so cool
anyone know the first song? it was a fantastic opener

The majority of what they played was new and will be on a new LP thats coming out in spring.

They played 3 or 4 old songs.
