A Note from the

Editor

On Creative Freedom

C

reative freedom’s been on my mind a lot this week.

First, there was the release of the Kickstarterfunded Veronica Mars in theaters, some seven years after the show was cancelled. As a major fan of the show during its run (and a Kickstarter contributor, I should note), seeing the creative people behind the series come back to create something that feels organic to the series and still accessible for newcomers felt like a dream come true. It was also, thankfully, a better reboot than, say, Arrested Development’s reboot on Netflix last year.

As I’m writing this, I’m listening to Lady Gaga’s keynote address at SXSW. This comes the afternoon after her unhinged performance at SXSW, which included (most notoriously) a vomit-fueled performance of “Swine.” It’s a lengthy discussion about, among other things, artistic freedom and the importance of creativity. That creativity is one of the reasons I love Gaga. With every single, every album, every music video, every concert – that creative drive is just there on display.

I’m a big believer in the power of creative people. It’s a major reason I enjoy my job, since part of my job involves promoting artists to our community here in Atlanta, and thanks to the Internet, sometimes much further than our city.

Sometimes, that involves artists who are breaking through on a national level – like two artists we interviewed

8 // 03.19.2014

for this week’s issue, Karmin and Betty Who. Other times, it involves promoting local talents offering something new and interesting to the art scene, like the Atlanta Ballet’s performance this weekend of Modern Choreographic Voices.

All of this to say: if you’re creative, indulge in your creativity. If you’re a fan, support creative talent. Life’s more fun with creativity!

his week, we’re catching up with Jungle’s Kyle Randall. A recent college graduate who spends his days interning with advertising agencies, Kyle got his start at Joe’s on Juniper before moving over to Jungle. Be sure to keep an eye out for him the next time you’re at the popular club. Atlanta, meet Kyle!

What’s the most unusual drink request you’ve received?

I was asked once for a Bloody Mary but made with Hennessy instead of vodka. Both of those things taste great by themselves, but I can’t image them being very good together. To each their own, though!

Can you guess what people are drinking before they even order it?

Sometimes. I make it a goal to memorize what my most frequent guests like to drink. When a bartender knows what you want without asking, it can make you feel more at home. I do have the habit of referring to people as their favorite drinks before I get formally introduced. I’ve run into people outside of the bar and been like “Yeah, I remember you! You’re Citron and Sprite, right?” while shaking their hand. I’m terrible with names so drinks sometimes stick better.

What’s the worst thing a customer can do?

For me, it would have to be a disregard for one’s personal limits when consuming alcohol. I’m here to make sure you’re having a great time and part of that may involve getting tipsy, but keeping you and the people around you safe is one of my top priorities. My biggest piece of advice for people drinking is to know how much you can drink, self-regulate, and switch to water when you’ve gone past that. Don’t drink like a teenager, drink like an adult.

DAVID ATL ANTA E XCLUSIVE

Karmin Brings New Album, Tour to Atlanta

BY ELIJAH SARKESIAN

L

et’s be honest: between his good looks and her diva-like vocals, the pop duo Karmin seem almost tailor-made for gay audiences. And while Amy Heidemann and Nick Noonan are engaged to each other, they certainly don’t mind the attention.

After breaking through on YouTube thanks to a series of covers, including Chris Brown’s “Look at Me Now” and Nicki Minaj’s “Super Bass,” Karmin was signed to Epic Records and released their first EP of original material, Hello, back in 2012.

With a smash single in “Brokenhearted” and a dance club hit in “Hello,” Karmin spent 2013 putting the finishing touches on their debut full-length album, Pulses, which drops March 25.

Amy Heidemann: Yeah, it feels more like a duo, and it’s definitely got a bit more darkness and aggression in there, probably because that’s what we were going through when we were recording it.

DA: You touched on this already, but what was different about recording Pulses vs. Hello? You had some success with Hello, so I’m sure the pressure was on to sustain or build upon that momentum.

NN: Kind of, yes and no. I feel like this one was more… Hello was kind of a collection of singles, almost. This is more an actual –

David Atlanta spoke with Amy and Nick recently about the AH: A body of work. making of Pulses, their connection to gay audiences, and what Atlantans can expect when their Pulses Tour comes to NN: – body of work, and I think it says a lot more and represents a lot more.

Atlanta on April 12.

David Atlanta: What can you tell us about your AH: Yeah. I think, when we were originally signed with Epic new album, Pulses?

Records, it was like, everyone was super excited, because there was a lot of hype, and that can be really amazing. It was Nick Noonan: First of all, this is our first actual full-length amazing for us, obviously. It was a jumping-off platform for album. The other release was an EP, Hello, which had us. But it was nice to go in and really just take full creative “Brokenhearted” and everything on it. So this has been a la- control over our sound, and we’re so proud of it, we’re not rebor of love. We’ve been recording for over a year.

So DA: You’ve released a few singles from the album there’s more highs and lows. There are still some party songs, already, and the current one, “I Want It All,” seems but there’s also a darker, edgier feel to the whole album. And like a bit of a departure for you compared to your it has a lot more of both of us, both Amy and me, on it. previous singles. How did the song come about, then get selected as a single? davidatlanta.com // 15

NN: It’s funny – people always say it’s good to get everyone’s opinion, because we don’t really hear it as that different. But some people hear the song, and say, “Oh, that song is so different!” And we’re like, “Oh, I had no idea.” (Laughs)

DA: Karmin has a strong following in the LGBT community. You’ve played at numerous Pride events in the past. Why do you think the LGBT community has connected with Karmin?

We definitely loved that kind of old funk feel – you know, like with the guitar line and all that stuff – and putting modern sounds on that. Obviously, those are all real drums and real guitars; everything’s really being played.

NN: That is a good question. I think it’s because of our performance style, kinda. We really don’t hold anything back. It’s not very safe. I know some people tend to associate radio acts with “safe,” sonically or content-wise, but when you come to a show, it’s very unsafe – very free. Like Amy was saying, in comments we get afterwards, it’s like, “Holy shit, that was a rock show!” We’re running around, and as we were developing our style, we did notice that it was the Pride events and all these other things where we got the most interaction with the audience. We got the most interaction with the stuff where we were kinda just going for it. It was more like a total, all-out energy rock show. And that was very relieving. We were like, “Oh, that’s awesome, because that’s what we naturally do anyway.”

So it’s good to have people react to that. And in a way, it helped us develop our style.

AH: And horns!

NN: And horns, yes.

AH: We wanted horns on a single so bad, since the beginning of time. Nick is an amazing trombone player, and it’s something we’ve just been wanting, so it worked out. We tried to keep the melody super-simple and catchy, which is kind of the Karmin thing to do, but it was a departure from “Acapella,” which was a departure from the previous singles. We definitely want to make sure people are surprised when a Karmin single comes out.

DA: The two of you have been engaged for a while DA: I definitely think this single surprised people a now. Do you plan on making things “official” any little bit. Amy, you tend to rap on so many of your time soon? released songs, so hearing a Karmin song without a rap was a surprise.

NN: We do. The problem is, we’ve had plans for a very, very long time, but we still haven’t been able to come to fruition. But AH: Absolutely, yeah. We thought it was appropriate. We were yeah. At this point, it’s just…we’re thinking about the whole like, what is this song about? Well, it’s a greedy song, right? We “run off to Vegas” scenario, but we’ll see. We’re still planning want everything. It’s not just material things. But we thought, why on it. We were hoping to do it at the end of 2013, but it didn’t don’t we put out a single where we’re not necessarily giving them happen. the rap, or whatever, and we’re doing a totally different thing.

The New York Times has even called him “the most looked-to choreographer in Western ballet” and “the most gifted choreographer specializing in classical ballet today.”

or the last 40 years, Atlanta has been privileged to welcome some of the greatest musicians of all time to the modest – but not meager – stage at Chastain Park Amphitheatre.

Eight-time Grammy nominated American singer Ledisi will jazz it up the following weekend, with opener Robert Glasper Experiment, on Fri., May 9th at 8 p.m. Ledisi’s powerful, Jazz-inspired lyrics will stay with you even after the curtain falls.

Naturally, as it is tucked away in the middle of a Buckhead neighborhood, Chastain is smaller in size than some of Atlanta’s other gargantuan stadiums. But its size and location have ultimately contributed to the uniquely intimate atmosphere that keeps fans pouring though the gates each year.

It’s Betty Who!

A

fter releasing her first EP, The Movement independently a few months ago, Betty Who burst on to the scene with a name to remember and a message to bring. With the help of a young man named Spencer Stout, and his Home Depot marriage proposal to boyfriend Dustin, her song “Somebody Loves You” became a viral chart hit. She has since signed with RCA Records and her second EP, Slow Dancing, comes out April 8.

David Atlanta caught up with the singer before she kicks off her tour, which stops here on March 26 at the Masquerade.

fairyscopes ARIES (March 20 – April 19):

LIBRA (September 23 – October 22):

Your emotions could get the best of you today if you don’t find an outlet. Don’t think you’re any less masculine if you indulge in a good crying session. Hey, contestants on The Biggest Loser cry all the time, and no one thinks any less of them.

Share your manscaping skills with friends today, because some of them may really need it. Teach them the value of good grooming and always looking your best. If it works for you it can work for them, even those with the grooming habits of a caveman.

TAURUS (April 20 – May 20):

SCORPIO (October 23 – November 21):

You may be sick of the snooty attitude of men, so hang out with your gal pals today. Plan fun activities like shopping or lunch with them. You’ll enjoy the unique perspective woman bring to the table. They, in turn, will greatly appreciate the cosmetic and beauty tips you’ll pass on to them.

Stock up on extra Kleenex today if you plan on watching any sad movies tonight. Even the manliest of men can benefit from a good cry, so let yourself go. But you may have explaining to do should friends stop by in the middle of The English Patient – they won’t believe that you were just peeling onions.

GEMINI (May 21- June 20):

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 – December 20):

Recent financial downturns may force you to get tight with your money today. The timing couldn’t be worse. But it’ll be in your best interest to be thrifty, no matter how many seasonal sales are going on.

You may find yourself attracted to someone who is completely different from you. Your energies may be mismatched, but you’ll swear there’s an attraction. The only way to find out is to approach him. That’s when you’ll find out he’s from a different country, and you don’t even speak the same language.

CANCER (June 21- July 22):

CAPRICORN (December 21 – January 19):

Today’s a good one to grab the bull by the horns. Being confident and assertive will help you get the things you want today, especially when it comes to men. You’ll be so poised guys may actually be intimidated by you. That’ll be a good thing, as it will add to your masculine allure.

Deal with issues as they arise today. This will keep them from exploding in your face at the most inopportune times.

It could also have you dumping a guy who has become a real nuisance, and who is only a phone call away from becoming a bona fide stalker.

LEO (July 23 – August 22):

AQUARIUS (January 20 – February 18):

You’ll see your sensitive side emerge today. This may not sit too well as you make the social rounds. There may be wolves who’ll see a chance to take advantage of the vulnerable lion. But one mighty roar could snap you back into shape, and you’ll find those wolves are actually lambs in disguise.

Why so serious? Your raging emotions could derail what should be a relaxing day. Keeping them under control could be tough, however, as you tend to wear them on your sleeve.

Lighten up, or you could find yourself spending the evening alone…again.

VIRGO (August 23 – September 22):

PISCES (February 19 – March 19):

You’ll be quite the therapist today as friends come to you with their problems. You’ll offer uncanny insight into their troubles, and they’ll thank you for your help. Their thanks may be short-lived, however, after they get your bill in the mail, and they discover that your services don’t come cheap.

You’ll have tons of romantic fun today as guys will be attracted to your dreamy, sensitive side. They’ll find everything you do to be fascinating and cool. Until you start reciting your own poetry to them, and their discomfort will be palpable.

Has anyone EVER checked to see how the room or wall behind them looks before taking and posting 50 selfies?

My pet peeve: being called “exotic.” I’m not a multicolored bird.

Drunk and horny.

What’s a boy to do?

You gotta hand it to blind prostitutes.

PSA: $5 is no longer considered gas money.

Can we get over this Paula Deen crap? She said the “N” word once. She’s a scapegoat. Who among us can cast that stone?

Move on!

Oh, you love your partner SOOO much?

Really! Then how come he doesn’t know you have hepatitis?

That’s not love, liar!

Ignoring you? Bubba, we don’t do fake here!

Throw your drink on someone else.

Putin persecutes gays in his own country, then goes and enters another country through the back door. Very mixed messages, Russia.

I may not be your cup of tea, but I’m your tenth shot of tequila.

You think I’m going to chase you? I don’t even chase my liquor.
