Jim White
小简介
美国民谣唱作人Jim White就像个行为古怪的绅士,将近40岁才发表第一张唱片《Wrong-Eyed Jesus》(1997年)。它像是很传统的民谣歌曲集,明媚的吉他、曼陀林摇摇晃晃地闪亮着,然而又像是添加了一种特别的药剂,流露出难以捉摸的、透明的迷幻感,用一个乐评人的话形容:“就像是巷子里一只刚偷吃了小鸡的猫在散步”。而且,他音乐中继承了某种Tom Waits式的散漫和怪异,让人感到既亲切又沉迷。
自1992年成立,乐团经常在墨尔本的酒吧演出。成员来自解散的众多乐队:Busload Of Faith,Moodists, Fungus Brains, Venom P. Stinger和the Blackeyed Susan。随后,他们与Pavement、Jon Spencer Blues Explosion的演出引起了广泛的关注。1994年,他们在波士顿的小厂牌Poon Village发行了首张唱片《Sad and Dangerous》。本质上说,这是他们自制磁带Damo的再包装。1995年,他们出版了同名唱片《The Dirty Three》,从墨尔本的酒吧来到了英国的国家电影剧院,与Nick Cave一道为20年代Carl Dreyer的无声电影《Passion Of Joan Of Arc》作现场背景配乐。后来与Nick Cave合作出现在纪念《X档案》的唱片《Songs In The Key Of X》当中。1996年冬,他们赴维也纳为多伦多作家与诗人Michael Ondaatje的剧本《The Collected Works Of Billy The Kid》(由德国导演Werner Herzog指导拍摄)演奏配乐。同年,乐团与Will Oldham合作发表他们的第三张专辑《Horse Stories》。在Warren Ellis组队之前,他练习古典小提琴,曾经为剧院的乐团写过乐曲,Ellis经常参观画廊,并用小提琴将对画作的理解和内心的感受表达出来。
Southern Gothic singer/songwriter Jim White grew up in Pensacola, Florida, enamored with the sounds of the white gospel music he heard on the Gospel Jubilee television series. After spending his formative years on the outskirts of a deeply Pentecostal community, he entertained a career as a professional surfer, followed by a stint in Milan as a fashion model. A band-saw accident which resulted in a maimed left hand seemed to end Whites hopes as a musician, but after writing a collection of simple songs on his guitar, a friend convinced him to record a demo which ultimately made its way to the offices of David Byrnes Luaka Bop label. After re-recording the songs, White issued his debut Wrong-Eyed Jesus! — a collection of atmospheric, oddly spiritual country-folk performances — in 1997. No Such Place was issued in early 2001. In 2004 White released Drill a Hole in That Substrate and Tell Me What You See, again on Luaka Bop, which featured such eccentric guests as the Barenaked Ladies, Aimee Mann, and Bill Frisell. 2005 saw the release of Jim White Presents Music from Searching for a Wrong-Eyed Jesus, a soundtrack to the surrealist road film by director Andrew Douglas that featured material by White, the Handsome Family, 6 Horsepower and others.
