Ball of Wax Showcase at Northwest Folklife 2012
Our friends at Northwest Folklife have announced the schedule for this year’s festival (Memorial Day weekend, May 25-28) and, as usual, it’s a doozy. There’s a mind-boggling number of wonderful artists representing a mind-boggling array of sounds and styles, and … Continue reading
Stellarondo’s Mash Note from Rick Bass
If you’ve been hanging around here for a while, you know that I’m a fan of the intersection of literature and music. I think the resulting art is often enhanced by the exposure of musicians to books, or writers to … Continue reading
Genital Hospital Plays Their Last Show This Friday

The Noisy Rise and Regrettable Fall of Sip’s Odyssey
Sip’s Odyssey first came onto my radar about a year ago, when they submitted the song “Devils in the Details” for Ball of Wax Volume 23. It was low-fi and weird, and seemed to have a thrift store’s worth of … Continue reading
Submit to Ball of Wax 28: The BoW Dance Party!
This is gonna be a fun one. I have decided that Ball of Wax Volume 28 (Spring 2012) will be the Ball of Wax Dance Party installment – i.e., all things electro, dance, hip-hop, etc. I would love to hear … Continue reading
Lo Fine: “As You Turn Your Brim”
Time lapse photography never fails to transfix me, especially when it’s documenting natural phenomena such as the movement of plants or the fluctuation of temperatures. This one shot video is incredibly simple, but there’s so much going on in the … Continue reading
