The Indigo Girls, with Spearhead (Chastain Park, Atlanta, GA, June 2, 2000). Concert review by Jeff Montgomery; photos by Shannah Cahoe Montgomery.
... wasn't part of the problem at all. In fact, the audience had actually been unexpectedly well moved to participate by charismatic lead singer Michael Franti (ex-Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy). He blended spoken word, Jamaican flavors, and light-edged hip-hop into a pleasing, socially conscious blend ...

December 1998 :: Music P-R :: R.E.M. (Jeff Montgomery)
... ; “Suspicion,” “Sad Professor,” and “The Apologist” are not just good songs: they are obvious R.E.M. songs. While Michael Stipe likened Out of Time to a collection of love songs, he truly succeeds with “At My Most Beautiful,” a gorgeously poignant ode to ...

July 1999 :: Music F-H :: Hadacol (Jason Feifer)
... let them loose to rock, you'd have Hadacol. Although both brothers Fred and Greg Wickham trade off lead vocal responsibility, both sound eerily like Michael Stipe. Their backup vocalization style and rhythm guitar style is so similar to the Athens group that, with the exception of a few tunes that are ...

July 1999 :: Music A :: Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me (Julio Diaz)
... some interesting original tracks. The covers mostly work -- R.E.M.'s take on Tommy James' "Draggin' the Line" sounds like nothing they've ever done (Michael Stipe even sounds completely different -- I think he took the marbles out of his mouth!), while Melanie G (a.k.a. the dreaded Scary Spice) contributes ...

February 1999 :: Music S-Z :: Spahn Ranch (Matthew Moyer)
... Noir. For instance, the beginning of "Remnants" ends up sounding like a crazed Matt Green is holding a gun up to his head and forcing him to imitate Michael Stipe in that annoying song about the end of the world and screaming, "Sing faster, you bastard!!" Athan should not be sounding like 2 Unlimited ...

The Josh Joplin Band is an Atlanta four-piece on singer-songwriter Shawn Mull...
... drum machine programs to underscore their folk-pop sound much as Beck has been known to do. Joplin sings the songs in a voice that recalls REM's Michael Stipe and Live frontman Edward Kowalczyk (without the histrionics) with perhaps a touch of Neil Finn and maybe Justin Hayward of the Moody Blues. But ...

September 1999 :: Music F-M :: Josh Joplin Band (Lisa Olen)
... CD, Useful Music , does draw similarities with college-radio days R.E.M. balladry. With plaintive and at times nervous vocals almost identical to Michael Stipe and harmonies that one could swear included cameos by Mike Mills, Josh Joplin Band does a better job of adding meaningful piano chord baselines ...

Athens icon Vic Chesnutt discusses his brilliant new CD, Silver Lake, with devoted fan Steve Stav.
... : Gravity of the Situation -- the Songs of Vic Chesnutt. Just what is so endearing about his songs, you might wonder? Chesnutt, like his old friend Michael Stipe (who "discovered" the singer amidst the musically-fertile scene/town of 1985 Athens, GA) has the innate ability to put the listener - emotionally ...

December 1997 :: Ink Spots :: Moog Cookbook (Bryan Tilford)
... as one for The Foo Fighters ("Big Me") which they also used in the intro to their video of "Monkey Wrench." We're eager to do more. I would love for Michael Stipe or Oasis to call us and ask us -- that would be hilarious!" Another reaction story is when the producer for Green Day was playing Moog Cookbook ...

April 2000 :: Live :: Nashville Pussy (Frank Mullen)
... , GA, Nashville Pussy are about as far away on the musical spectrum from better-known Athens exports REM as one can get. After all, I've never seen Michael Stipe breathe fire, and I don't think he sports a Harley-style "Eat Me" tattoo on his belly (but I'm not positive). In fact, if REM is one of your ...
