Dejha Films and Music

Turn on your favorite Bill Monroe song, reduce the speed about half as much, add lyrics about broken hearts and you’ve got one of my favorite bands, The Avett Brothers.

Hailing from North Carolina, these boys have an interesting twist on traditional bluegrass in the fact that they don’t play bluegrass at all. Many assume they are a bluegrass band because of the instruments used (banjo, upright bass, guitar) but in all honesty it is pop music using bluegrass instruments, and what a beautiful combination it is.

Their album Emotionalism is a modern day masterpiece. Songs “All My Mistakes” and “The Ballad of Love and Hate” sum up the album quite well: lovely melodies, great harmony, unique words, and soul capturing music.

Touring America and Europe

Now ending a North American tour, you can sure bet you’ll be able to see them across Europe in 2011.

After hearing a few of their shows, I must say I am impressed with their concert ability. It is very obvious that their music is very personal and powerful as they give 100% energy to each city they visit. From fast punk style rhythms of “Slight Figure of Speech” to smooth Oldies riffs of “Pretend Love”, The Avett Brothers bring all aspects of their music to each of their shows. Well worth the money.

Their songs are worth checking out, and even if you have never heard them, a concert would surely get you hooked. While the theme of their lyrics stays the same, the songs are beautiful and plentiful.

Music and film are very entertaining and enjoyable parts of life.  When you listen to your favorite song or watch your favorite movie, there is more going on than just entertainment.

This blog will cover all aspects of music and film. Everything from album reviews to movie suggestions will be covered in order to establish an entertaining, informative, and in-depth overview of these brilliant industries.

Music and film are not just pointless ways of entertaining ourselves for fun. They reflect our mark in history! Not everyone on the planet can describe detailed political issues going on in the 60s, yet millions of people can sing the lyrics of songs like “Hey Jude”, “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction”, or “Respect”. Movies and music are fascinating! I personally love both and am excited to share with you my thoughts on the two.

If you are not sure which album to buy or which film to rent, simply go online and read this blog for suggestions

This blog will also cover music IN film, concerts, and individual artists. Who is playing what where, who is shooting which film at which studio, and why you need to know! I think the beautiful thing about music and film is that you can take risks with no negative outcomes. If you don’t like a certain song, change it! If you are bored by certain movies, come to this blog and see which ones suit my fancy, or which ones don’t!

It is also highly encouraged to share your opinion about what I write. If you have something to add to an album or film review, feel free.
