ful ranchera voice and charismatic screen presence, he has become an enduring icon of Mexican music and cinema.
Experience the legendary charm of Pedro Fernández, the beloved Mexican singer and actor known as "El Aventurero de América". Hailing from Guadalajara, Jalisco, Pedro began his illustrious career at just seven years old with the iconic album and film "La de la mochila azul" ("The Girl with the Blue Backpack").
With a career spanning over four decades, Pedro has captivated audiences worldwide through his unforgettable voice, charismatic performances, and starring roles in record-breaking films and telenovelas. He has earned numerous national and international accolades, including multiple Latin Grammy Awards and over 26 platinum records.
travelogue, an attempt to transcend the homogeneous and status-obsessed conditions of the contemporary world through the use of big beats, big choruses, and distortion. It’s a record made on the go that makes sense anywhere. And most of all, with its expanded sonic palette and emphasis on breakbeats, it ushers in the newest era of an artist who has never stopped growing.
Cook, who grew up moving between Toronto and England, boasts anglo bonafides that separate him from the growing pack of hardcore kids sporting windbreakers and bowl cuts. “My grandmother helped invent the miniskirt in London in the 60’s, my parents met in a squat in Brixton. My dad was the drug dealer, my mom the hippie runaway,” Cook explains. “Growing up, I had a little bit of a Bristol life, it was more like trip-hop and reggae vibes over there when I was young.” Two of the first shows he attended, at the age of 12, were Oasis and Neil Young. After the show, he remembers thinking, “Yeah, I’m gonna do music forever.” Not long after he discovered hardcore and punk, and it was off to the races, first with his beloved hardcore band, No Warning (who he continues to play with to this day), then as a member of punk experimentalists, Fucked Up, from 2007 to 2021–and all the while building a deep and impressive catalog of solo work first as Young Governor, then Young Guv, and now simply, GUV (“I’m not so young anymore, three letter band names are cool, and I’m tired of being mistaken for a rapper,” Cook notes).
t’s on Purple Circle Records, a little label that singer/bassist Ned Russin co-owns. Performed by a revamped lineup — drummer Robin Zeijlon and guitarist Colin Gorman came on board last year, joining singer/bassist Ned Russin and keyboardist Nicole Dao — and recorded by the prolific producer/engineer Arthur Rizk, who has worked on every Glittererer release since 2019, erer is the most thematically urgent work the band has produced to date. It’s also the most immediately and sustainedly ear-pleasing.
Paradigmatically, the lead single, “Stainless Steel,” booms Albini-like with sturdy yet subtle drumming, massive stereo guitars, and all manner of counterpoints and complements emanating from the keyboard, in support of a melody — a classic Glitterer melody — that twists and turns, starts and stops, and goes exactly where the listener didn’t remotely realize it needed to go. And in Russin’s typically sapient lyrics we hear, without superfluity or mawkishness, the bewilderment, resignation, anger, guilt, and stubborn commitment to beauty and community that the album exists to express. It’s the dialectical inner monologue of a socially engaged, intellectually curious creative aspirant — a person not unlike yourself — who can’t help but notice that it’s all coming to nothing. “It’s everywhere I turn / I can’t escape / I wish I had ability innate / I wish I wasn’t incapacitated,” Russin sings. ““I’ll pretend that I’m stainless steel / I’ll forget that this all is real.” What more needs to be said?
Graham Hunt has an intuitive ability to carve out his own space within the long, confusing history of American pop music. The Wisconsin-based songwriter has spent the past four years hard at work building a trilogy of records that synthesize timeless guitar pop chops with a layered approach to production and a sly lyrical eye. His music balances the surreal with the quotidian, the melodic with the rhythmic, the cryptic with the triumphant–often proving that slacker playfulness and Heartland earnestness are not mutually exclusive. Timeless World Forever, the final entry in this trilogy and Hunt’s first release for Run For Cover, provides closure on a formidable body of songs while opening the gates for a new stage in the artist’s long, prolific career.
Minneapolis’ Prize Horse make “a fuzzy, dreamy form of alt-rock that manages to be heavy and spaced-out at the same time” (Stereogum). The trio’s debut album, Under Sound, embarks their musical evolution which takes flight with ethereal, fuzz-laden tones departing from the grittier layers of their previous 2021 Welder EP.
We're excited to announce Glitterer are coming back February 19th with Graham Hunt (@grahamfunkrailroad) and Prize Horse (@prize.horse). Tickets go on-sale Friday at 10am! 💫
