Frozen Corn is the Western Mass trio of Anthony Pasquarosa, Chris Carlton, and Joshua Burkett. "In 1967, the Holy Modal Rounders were signed to ESP-Disk. One of Peter Stampfel's first missions was to get the Rounders' co-conspirator, Michael Hurley, signed as well. To this end, Hurley cut a solo demo and sent it down to NYC. One of the tunes featured Hurley on his signature mock trumpet, but ESP's Bernard Stollman was not impressed. 'What's this guy trying to do,' Stollman asked. 'Sing with his mouth closed? And why is everything so slow?' Stampfel replied, 'Well, he's kind of like an amphetamine head in reverse.' The ESP deal was off, but a certain creative template was invented - The Twilight Zone - and it is one that has been adopted by the Western Mass trio, Frozen Corn. The band is comprised of Joshua Burkett, Chris Carlton and Anthony Pasquarosa. Each of them has a sterling musical rep, and more recordings than you can easily name, but Frozen Corn is a special kind of project. Together, the three of them perform covers of proto-bluegrass tunes, most first recorded in Kentucky, Tennessee and Virginia in the late 1920s. This stuff was just called folk music back then (bluegrass wasn't an actual classification until the late '40s), but the tunes of guys like Bascom Lamar Lunsford, Clarence Ashley and Doc Boggs were the base on which the speed-damaged rave-ups of bluegrass were founded. Frozen Corn also cover a couple of trad songs, plus 'Summer's Night,' a song written in the Twilight Zone style by the late British banjo player, Clive Palmer (one of the founders of the Incredible String Band). Using two banjos and a guitar, Frozen Corn turn these hillbilly howls (remember the Rounders' own version of 'Cuckoo') into slow-wound meditations on form and function. And their deep monotonic vocal riffs by either Chris or Tony (Josh stays mum) work almost like raga singing in terms of achieving The Zone. It's related to bluegrass and old timey music, but it comes from an alternate universe. A universe in which the transportational qualities of Frozen Corn's sound cannot be overstated. Those wishing to visit The Zone can now easily grab an earful. Free your ass and do it." -Byron Coley Cover art direction and design by Tom Recchion. Features the world's first ceramic graphics for an LP. Embossed cover, texturized sand paper finish; Printed by Stoughton Printers.

A Test of a Young Girl's Faith
Barakah Beats is the debut novel of author Maleeha Siddiqui. It is the story of Nimra, a 12-year-old Pakistani Muslim who is transitioning from a private Islamic school to an American public school. It deals with many traditional problems children starting middle school face—self-esteem, fitting in, and making friends. What adds an extra layer of tension to this novel is the religious aspect. Nimra memorized the Qur'an at her private school and wants to maintain her Muslim identity while also fitting into her new school.
Nimra has previously had a friendship with Jenna, an American girl she thought was her close friend. Jenna seems to treat Nimra differently at school, and Nimra decides she wants to find a way to earn back Jenna's friendship. Some eighth-grade Muslim boys at her school have a music group called Barakah Beats. They befriend Nimra after they discover she is a talented singer. Nimra becomes a celebrity around campus, and Jenna suddenly wants to be friends with her again. One of the interesting dilemmas Nimra faces is that she's not sure her family will approve of her interest in music. While Nimra likes the boys and the attention she gets from Jenna and her friends, her real passion is drawing and becoming an artist. Nimra is not forthcoming and honest with the boy and her parents, and her guilt becomes too much to manage.
I enjoyed the read and empathized with Nimra's difficult situation wanting to fit in. Siddiqui's book raises interesting questions about how challenging it can be for children with other ethnic, cultural, and religious differences to find their place in American society while maintaining their identity.

muslim girl joins boy band
Format: Hardcover
I got this book for my daughter to read, her review is what follows:
Barakah beats is the perfect book for any Muslim in middle or high school to read. I felt connected to the story not many have been able to reach. She goes through what I felt as a Muslim in school, journey is like viewing my experiences through the eyes of someone else. Namira Sharif joins up with a boy band through an unexpected invitation to join them. This is where I feel she finds more about her own beliefs, some Muslims believe music is haram and others believe it the opposite. She finds her own opinions based on her journey, she makes difficult decisions and new friends as the outcome. Overall this book is an excellent read and I don't really have many complaints about it. I don't have much to compare it to since there aren't a lot of books published with Muslims portrayed in such a way. A When Barakah Beat was given to me I nearly jumped for joy seeing a new book written by a Muslim author. Namira does not run from her faith but always tries to remember it, even when she joins the band to win her best friend back. The book hits all the markers when talking about personal values, beliefs, family, and culture, a sweet and relatable read for anyone Muslim girl with a middle school experience. Be warned though once you start you won't be able to stop till you realize you're staring at the back of the book and there are no more words to read.

Joyful!
Format: Hardcover
This book is joyful and I loved the authentic Muslim character and the peace and melody she finds in the Quran. I haven't read a character who does hifz before so that was interesting for me! The story is fast paced and flows beautifully! I loved the friendship of her characters and especially when Jenna asks Nimra if she's going to wear her hijab to school! I love how Nimra owns it. I also connected to the worried parents. So real! I also loved how Nimra prays in school. I loved the family dynamic, the internal dilemma of Nimra, and how she stays true to herself when it comes to music and Quran.
I can't wait to read more stories from this talented author! Also this cover makes me so happy!
