So long, RVA!
With the release of their second album, some things have changed for Fight the Big Bull. Matt White talks about those changes, the album, and more in an audio commentary over the entire new record, All Is Gladness In The Kingdom.
Remember back in March when Fight the Big Bull told us they would be playing three nights of live recording sessions at Balliceaux in celebration of their new album? I don’t know about you, but I’ve been waiting for these three days to get here for quite some time now. And it’s here! Monday, Tuesday, […]
There’s a new video from indie rocker Daniel Karsten Daniels featuring one glorious track from his forthcoming album with Fight the Big Bull.
To celebrate the release of their new album, Fight the Big Bull will play three consecutive nights at Balliceaux in May. To add to that, they’ll be recording each night for their next album. From the press release: Fight the Big Bull will be celebrating the release of their newest record, All is Gladness in The […]
Trumpeter Steven Bernstein’s visit to Richmond in February 2009 did not only mean amazing performances with Fight the Big Bull at RVAJazzfest, The Robinson Theater, and Cous Cous, or valuable hang time between younger musicians and a musical idol. Since it’s been a whole year, it’s easy to forget that half of his 10 days in town was devoted to recording an album with the Big Bull.
On Wednesday night during their second set at Balliceaux, Fight the Big Bull brought out the Christmas carols. I’m a sucker for Christmas music, and a big sucker for Fight the Big Bull, so I try and be there every time (which, to my knowledge, has been twice) that the Big Bull improvises holiday tunes in their unique style.
Sounds trickled down each hallway until every space in the building was filled with noise. For an hour, the observer’s experience was all his or her own. Nooks and crevasses explored and one’s pace of wandering around added up to create a unique piece of music for each listener.
Fight the Big Bull‘s Matt White said today that the band’s bi-weekly gig is being relocated to the new restaurant Balliceaux, effective November 4. The band will continue performing every other Wednesday as they have been doing in the past — for “three years and counting,” says their website — at Cous Cous. Ombak, which […]
Tonight marks the return of Fight the Big Bull and Ombak’s rotation on their home turf venue, Cous Cous. The summer there has been occupied by various bands, but these two regulars have been on summer vacation since May 27. In what’s being called “Season 4,” they’re back to bring life to Wednesday nights once again.
This morning, Clean Feed released the program for the upcoming Clean Feed Fest IV on September 16-20 in New York City. Fight the Big Bull with Steven Bernstein will close out the fest on the final evening. RVAjazz will be there to cover the performance, but if you would like to attend, tickets are $15 […]
