Young Man In America
''Young Man in America'' is the fifth studio album by American singer-songwriter Anaïs Mitchell, released on Wilderland Records in the UK on February 13, 2012, and in the US on February 28, 2012. It is a folk and folk-pop album with elements of bluegrass and New Orleans jazz. Themes Although the album does not tell a specific story like her previous album ''Hadestown'', Mitchell has stated that the album was "influenced by the recession", and that many of the lyrics allude to the loss of certainty and the old ways in modern-day America: "There's a feeling that the American is something of an orphan, that we can't trust we're going to be taken care of". Many of the tracks tell stories related to children and parenting, and Mitchell told '' Uncut'' magazine that she was conscious of having reached the age of 30 without yet becoming a parent. The track "Shepherd" was based on a short story written by her father Don, who was a novelist before he became a university professor. T ...

Q (magazine)
''Q'' was a popular music magazine published monthly in the United Kingdom. It was founded in 1986 by broadcast journalists Mark Ellen and David Hepworth, who were presenters of the BBC television music series ''The Old Grey Whistle Test''. ''Q'''s final issue was published in July 2020. ''Q'' was originally published by the EMAP media group and set itself apart from much of the other music press with monthly production and higher standards of photography and printing. In the early years, the magazine was sub-titled "The modern guide to music and more". Originally it was to be called ''Cue'' (as in the sense of cueing a record, ready to play), but the name was changed so that it would not be mistaken for a snooker magazine. Another reason, cited in ''Q''s 200th edition, is that a single-letter title would be more prominent on newsstands. In January 2008, EMAP sold its consumer magazine titles, including ''Q'', to the Bauer Media Group. Bauer put the title up for sale in 2020 ...
