Jose Gonzalez
Tonight @ the Pabst Theater - 8:00 PM
Blessed with a rich, reverberating voice and an ear for easy-going guitar rhythms, Jose Gonzalez is a gifted songwriter, but he owes much of his fame not to his originals, but rather his to covers. A sparse and emotive take on The Knife's "Heartbeats," used prominently in a Sony commercial and a handful of TV shows, anchored 2003's Veneer, a collection of spare, quiet tunes. Though he’s grown less introspective in his recent studio efforts, Gonzalez hasn't completely shied away from his sensitive troubadour role, as evidenced by live renditions of Joy Division's "Love Will Tear Us Apart" and Kylie Minogue's "Hand On Your Heart," two emotional numbers he reinterprets in his own indelible style. Gonzalez plays an 8 p.m. show tonight at the Pabst Theater.

Besotted by the cinema of silence and early talking pictures, Guy Maddin also finds humor in old movies-or perhaps the humor lies more in the distance between our experience of the world and the gestures of an antique art form. In My Winnipeg, the Canadia
For most of us, bossa nova is the distinctive sound of Brazil. The music was born in the late 1950s, conceived in large part by Antonio Carlos Jobim. From early on, American jazz musicians parked themselves within the idiom, sensing an affinity between th
California's Sound Tribe Sector 9 claims that instrumental music can reflect the tension of the times. In fact, the five-man collective considers its dense Eno-esque swirl of pulsing live and electronic sounds a means of "conversation" between band and li
The local restaurant Barossa, named after the Australian wine region of the same name, quietly closed its doors several months ago. With that closure came the loss of a very distinguished wine list and a menu that borrowed ingredients from all over the wo
