Bio
In 2003 under the guise of Mal Madrigal, Stephen Bartolomei penned a wistful batch of songs and began performing in Omaha, Nebraska. Soon after a band was formed and dozens of recordings ensued. Early on, the sharing of these recordings was rare. The first record, Mal Madrigal (Self -Titled BLR-001), was limited to very few CD-Rs with handmade jackets and artwork. The second effort was the even more rare “Elephant E.P.” available only while Stephen toured with Mayday and Neva Dinova. Finally in 2007, Mal Madrigal released two full-length, vinyl-only albums. Life Among the Animals (BLR-003) was spare and haunting, populated with the swells of noise, rustic instruments, and prepared sounds. The Road is Glue (BLR-004) played as a collection of songs, revisiting some early Madrigal material with a full band, led by a more confident hand. In 2010 Mal Madrigal released From the Fingers of Trees (BLR-005). This time, the songs unfold like cinema, weaving the stories of wanders and outsiders into a plaintive and echoing soundscape. Recorded almost entirely live, the record is raw, honest, and affecting. FFOT is the sound of musicians making music for the sake of a moment, a moment captured on magnetic tape and unwound with each revolution of stylus to groove. ....Mal Madrigal has shared the stage with Calexico, Destroyer, Centro-Matic, Nina Nastasia, Vic Chesnutt, Conor Oberst, the Good Life, Art In Manila, Shiny Around the Edges, Neva Dinova, the Medications, Scout Niblett, Edith Frost, Simon Joyner, the Bruces, David Dondero, Orenda Fink, Ladyfinger, Richard Buckner, Eric Bachmann, and many others. -
