![]() Fear is a complete stranger to this band. They’re not even afraid to take on a Pink Floyd or Led Zeppelin tune. They throw in a cover song on occasion, putting their own stamp on it, much like the Allman Brothers Band of the early 1970s. Songs from their still unreleased next album have been featured in their live set for some time, and they consistently write new material. Their first full-length CD, “Grown,” was released in November 2016 at a sold-out release party at Mr. The result? An eight-headed musical monster with a bigger sound and songs of pure magic. In 2015, guitarist Mike Minda arrived, and the band added horns and two backing vocalists. It’s the kind of sound that would be equally at home on WDVE or Soul Train. They describe their sound as “soul rock,” with Clegg’s Cocker-meets-Allman voice leading the way. Influenced by Hendrix, Derek Trucks and Al Green, Clegg and drummer Shawn McGregor initially founded The Commonheart in 2014, as a five-piece band. His response when I complimented him on his Jimi Hendrix tattoo? “That’s not a tattoo. And he’s my choice for the most energetic lead singer in rock and roll.

Paul returns to the area this summer for two free shows. He’s been on tour since, playing 10 states and three dates in Canada. All of this without rehearsing a note! The results are spectacular, and it stands out as one of the best releases so far in 2018. Luc’s third album, “Bad Seed” (released in February), was recorded in Nashville with a group of strangers, including a couple former members of Sturgill Simpson’s band. For some brilliant humor, check out his song, “ Adam & Eve.” Luc is one of the best lyricists in the business. A good song is a good song.” I couldn’t agree more. He’s got more of a Jackson Browne meets Paul Simon sound. But you’ll be disappointed if you’re expecting him to sing about a pickup truck. Sure, some of his music features a pedal steel guitar. But don’t be mislead - Luc is by no means a country artist. Rolling Stone magazine named him one of “10 New Country Artists You Need To Know” earlier this year. He put in his two weeks’ notice, and has focused on music ever since. Paul Luc , a Natrona Heights native and Washington & Jefferson grad, grew tired of working in the corporate world.

He plays a free show as part of WYEP‘s “Final Fridays” series in Oakland’s Schenley Plaza (across from Carnegie Library) on July 27. Vincent says he’s “playing it by ear, seeing what opportunities come along and not forcing anything.” It’s merely put The Big Bend on the back burner for now. Since all of the Biirdwatchers are members of other bands, it’s not intended as a permanent project. Last winter they recorded an impressive CD, “Where The Earth Opens Wide,” released in February on Misra Records. Joining Vincent are Josh Carter, Read Connolly, James Hart, Trish Imbrogno, Jesse Prentiss, Guy Russo and Nathan Zoob. It’s musicians he met at these events who inspired his new “supergroup” folk project, Chet Vincent & Biirdwatcher. His main project, The Big Bend, has released four albums - the most recent being 2016’s “Celebrate.” But Vincent often plays solo folk shows, as well as participating in many “open mic” shows in the city. His Neil Young-inspired voice has been heard around town for the past decade. When you’re living on a budget, “free” fits in there pretty nicely, right?Ĭhet Vincent has one of the most recognizable voices in the Pittsburgh music scene. Best part of the deal? You can see them all absolutely FREE at least once this summer. So here’s a little guide to five Pittsburgh-based bands.

Let’s keep it real: Undergarments aren’t always a top shopping priority when that paycheck hits your bank account. ![]() Technically, the difference between legibility and readability, says Highsmith, is akin to the difference between “a sprint and a marathon.” Some design-watchers feel that editorial or quasi-editorial text printed without serifs blurs the line between ad and edit-so accustomed is the reader’s eye to associating sans serif copy with display advertising. In Germany and Switzerland, sans serif has a more established history. What are people used to reading? In North America, Highsmith says, we’re used to serif text faces. That’s why readers’ comfort levels and visual associations are so important. Headlines and body copy (and serif and sans serif text) have different purposes, but both affect buying. When sans serif type is used in headlines and subheads, it balances your serif text, instructs Goodman, giving a boost in readability to each. Not having loops makes sans serif letters a uniform size, which translates to a harsher read.Ĭopy aficionada and creative director for, Laurie Goodman, says the “little ‘tails’ at the ends of letters … create a little ‘cushion’ of white space around each letter, giving the eyes a rest.” Sans (without) serif works fine for “shouting” a message, as in headlines, kickers and pull quotes, say the direct marketing gurus but for “soft-spoken” body copy, serif is the way to go. ![]() Serif is the curlicue which creates a “harmony” of one letter with the next, recalling the idiosyncratic shape and feel of handwriting. The latter is most associated with body copy, or paragraphs, where the eye must not be taxed and reading ease is the goal. The former, usually employed for headlines and short bursts, often permits more creative leeway. Somewhere in between exists a double standard for “display” type and “text” type. Many direct marketing experts advocate the other extreme: neutrality of type in the service of content. Some critics thought the font was too sharp and that people might go blind reading it, an extreme point on the spectrum of readers’ sensory reactions to typeface. Highsmith says Baskerville’s type looked crisper due to the paper he used. ![]() This font is a revival of a typeface originally drawn by English typesetter John Baskerville in the 18th century. This point size and leading are considered just right for readability.Ĭyrus Highsmith, a type designer at the Font Bureau in Boston, says New Baskerville is popular because its “transitional” look blends the loopy traces of handwriting with the cold geometry of modern type styles. The words you’re reading right now are printed in the New Baskerville typeface, at 11 points, with 12-point leading (spacing between lines). ![]() ![]() He also worked for ten years at PricewaterhouseCoopers, becoming the global lead practitioner for project and change management.Īt the start of 2020, Antonio co-founded the Strategy Implementation Institute.

In most cases, a mosquito bite is a harmless nuisance that results in minor irritation and resolves on its own in a few days. ![]() The red bump appears shortly after the bite, while itchiness sets in somewhat slower - peaking around 24 to 36 hours post-blood sucking. Since this saliva contains foreign, irritating substances, your body reacts to it - creating the bump and redness and itchiness associated with mosquito bites.
