Live | Avi Buffalo @ Brudenell, Leeds, 14 July

The ever-sweaty Brudenell Social Club played host to these knob-twiddling, bench-loving, bacon-lipped, monstrously talented Americans, and FFS had a good long look.

Singles round-up | Ben Howard, Avi Buffalo & Sam Airey

Singles round-up | Ben Howard, Avi Buffalo & Sam Airey

Ben Howard – The Wolves The Wolves have been kicking around for well over a year now, but they must be getting hungry (or rather Howard’s fat cat record label Island were) as the mellow summer beach ditty with its fairy tale lyrics has been packaged up as a single. This isn’t the Mountain...

Singles round-up: Lissie, Avi Buffalo, Dreamend

5 September 2010
By For Folk's Sake
Singles round-up: Lissie, Avi Buffalo, Dreamend

Lissie – Cuckoo Bouncy, accessible country-pop about driving around in a truck in small-town America, being totally wild, rebellious and free. “Let’s go driving, ‘cause there’s nowhere to go!” Yeah! It all sounds really fun, and really bad for the environment, but this is an ode to the joys of monster trucks and youthful...

Festival: Green Man

4 September 2010
By For Folk's Sake
Festival: Green Man

The Green Man promised magic and he didn’t disappoint. Once again the organisers pulled off the spectacular trick of attracting the friendliest festival crowd to the most laid-back festival there is, while enticing some of the weirdest and most wonderful bands out there to perform. Manchester krautrockers Plank get the party started in fine...

Album: Avi Buffalo – Avi Buffalo

25 July 2010
By Lynn Roberts
Album: Avi Buffalo – Avi Buffalo

Avigdor Zahner-Isenberg, or Avi Buffalo to his friends, has brought together his group of young musicians from Long Beach, California, at the tender age of just 18 and they really have created a summer album with a twist. The cheery major chords of the acoustic guitar are matched up with fresh, clean electric parts...

[Hundred Bands] 2: AVI Buffalo

2 December 2009
By Lynn Roberts
[Hundred Bands] 2: AVI Buffalo

AVI Buffalo is Avigdor Zahner-Isenberg. An 18 year old singer songwriter from Long Beach California who describes himself on his myspace as an alternative/southern rock. Their music has the same sunshiney tinny sheen as the polyphonic spree. It sounds like California sunshine, or what I’ve seen of it from a university life spent watching the OC,...
