The Asylum Street Spankers is well-known band whose music is formed in early 20th century musical forms in Austin, Texas in 1994. In fall 2006, the band’s anti-war satire video “Stick Magnetic Ribbons on Your SUV” garnered 380,000 views on YouTube within the first two months of its release, eventually exceeding one million views
For 15 years, Asylum Street Spankers’ members have been tearing it up in their hometown of Austin, Texas, and around the country. They perform a original blend of acoustic blues, string-band swing-jazz, folk and even a few kids’ songs, all advanced with wit and panache. Now, the group has turned its ability to gospel music with a humbly titled new album called God’s Favorite Band.
More than 30 members have come and gone in the course of Asylum Street Spankers’ career — only Christina Marrs and Wammo remain. As they recall it, the two met at a party. “Out in Llano, Texas, there’s a place called the Dabbs Hotel,” Wammo says. “They have something called the Llano Bolano Show. It’s an artist-only party, and you had to perform something to attend. And [Marrs'] talent was she twirled a fire baton to Primus. It was amazing.”
Tanglewood Music Festival, Tanglewood is an interesting estate and music venue in Lenox and Stockbridge, Massachusetts and is also the home of the annual summer Tanglewood Music Festival and the Tanglewood Jazz Festival. It has been the Boston Symphony Orchestra’s summer home since 1937. Tanglewood was initially named for American author Nathaniel Hawthorne. Hawthorne, on the advice of his publisher William Ticknor, rented a small cottage in the area in March 1850 from William Aspinwall Tappan.
The series of the first three concerts of Tanglewood music center was held for around 15,000 people under one tent. Performances have been given by the Boston Symphony Orchestra in the Koussevitzky Music Shed consecutively every summer since inception but they could not perform from 1942 to 1945. This gap in their performance in the Koussevitzky Music Shed was just because the concerts were cancelled by the Trustees due to the World War II.
