New Record
Hi Kids,
I just wanted to say hello to all of you and I wanted to give you an update as to what is going on in my little world. First and foremost, I finally began recording my new album this week at the wonderful Type Foundry (Studiohttp://www.norfolkandwestern.org/typefoundrystudio/studio.html) and boy.... I am extremely excited with the sounds that we have been able to get so far. Don't even get me started on how great the gear and people are at this place.
This record is reuniting me with the my original band mates from the days of yore and boy let me tell you it's nice to be home again. The band this time around is Joe Chiusano on bass, Dan Eccles(Richmond Fontaine) on Guitar and Scott Mcpherson(Elliott Smith, Neil Finn) on drums.We are attempting to take more of a live approach to recording the album, so we hope that this will keep the proceedings as raw and spontaneous as possible. We are producing this album ourselves with the help of our good friend Adam Selzer(Norfolk and Western, M. Ward) and we hope to have the album out by the end of 2007 or early 2008. The working title for the album is True Instigator and the following are the songs that we are recording for this record:
True Instigator/ Wander/ Sympathy Street/ Castro and the Gun/ The Saddest Girl in Town/ Kissing the Lips of God/ Strange Look in Your Eyes/ At the Worlds End/ Selos/ Apology to a Bartender/ Last days Waltz/ Forgotten Town/ Time is Short/Awkward
We are also recording a cover of Hank Williams Sr( AKA Luke the Drifer) song Angel of Death and we are re-recording a couple of older songs for this record....Beautiful(with full band) and Wisemen(from Pacoima)
ok...joe just showed up to take me to the studio so until next time.
Take care,
Fern

Born in Argentina and raised in the Socal Mexican barrio of Pacoima, Fernando Viccionte fronted hard rockers Monkey Paw before relocating to Portland, Oregon, in 1994. His Sixth disc(and first in five years)finds the singer-songwriter backed by an accomplished outfit including Chet Lyster and Derek Brown of the Eels and Paul Brainard of Richmond Fontaine. Enter to Exit leaps out of the gate with "Howard Hughes", a propulsive rocker that inhabits Dwight Twilley turf, but for the bulk of the record, Fernando's "default" voice traces John Lennon's with such unaffected naturalness that the substantial emotional freight invested in these largely beatlesque pop nuggets(from jaunty to lush to achingly spare) resounds with stunning immediacy. Utterly Beautiful and Convincing.

Fernando Viciconte's fifth album continues the Argentine-born/L.A. bred songwriter's experiments in multiple pop forms. But Enter to Exit is so steeped in British pop that even Viciconte's vocal inflections occasionally sound as if he's floated in from across the pond. Enter to Exit spins like an especially fine George Harrison record from the late 70's. It's tuneful and lushly produced, and the vocals are mixed right up front, sporting confessional lyrics that slip into the ether just enough to render even the moistest romanticism oddly meditative. Enter to Exit does'nt shy away from melancholy or introspection; "Another Day in my Head" marries a Harry Nilsson-worthy melody to a brooding internal monologue, while "Mariana" is a languid love letter to the narrator's own private "queen of sleep." That's pretty heady stuff, but there's also plenty of upbeat, most notably "Howard Hughes," a good natured drubbing of reclusive self-pity on which Viciconte shows off his rightly praised voice. Viciconte is in good company as well, with eels' Jeff Lyster and Derek Brown providing much of the albums consistently bright, uncluttered sound.
Long a musicians' and critics' favorite, Viciconte deserves a wider audience, and Enter to Exit is a fine introduction for the uninitiated

Billboard Magazine Review of Enter to Exit 9.1.06

Portland is home to one of the most intriguing sounds of the past 20 years of new rock. It's a hazy waltz of Liverpudlian rolls and Topanga Canyon-esque waves that stands as a fitting testament to the legacy of its greatest son, Elliott Smith.

And who better to spread the sonic gospel of the late artist than a neighbor in his old hometown. Upon first listen to "Enter to Exit," the brilliant new album from Portland songwriter Fernando Viciconte, you may feel you've uncovered some super secret studio session between Elliott and Jon Brion.

But who you're really getting down with is a cat who managed to fuse two iconic styles into one singular concept, with some great help from the likes of Jeff "Chet" Lyster and Derek Brown of the Eels and Paul Brainard of Richmond Fontaine fame. Highlights include the beautiful "Mariana," "One Trick Pony," the Spanish-sung "Pasajeros" and the Heatmiser-esque "My Magnetic Field."

"Enter to Exit" might not exactly replace "XO" in your life's soundtrack, but it proves Smith's spirit in sound remains alive and well in Portland. -- Ron Hart

Review by Megan Frye
From the opening organ notes on "Howard Hughes," it's apparent that Fernando's Enter to Exit isn't your average pop/rock album. Sure, it's full of sweet, somber vocals and catchy hooks — but the album's got something to it you don't hear very often on melodic pop/rock releases — and that's raw emotion. Fernando consist of Portland, OR, pop songwriter Fernando Viciconte, as well as Jeff "Chet" Lyster and Derek Brown (both of the Eels), Richmond Fontaine's Paul Brainard, Qwee, and Lewi Longmire (a stalwart presence in the Pacific Northwest's roots rock scene). Such a blending of musicians and styles results in a beautifully eclectic album. The songs on Enter to Exit range from lighthearted, upbeat pop/rockers in the vein of the Beatles to mournful, sorrowful ballads. The group excels with melancholy tunes like "The Change in Us" as well as it does with the infectiously poppy "The Reluctant Deity." The band keeps things interesting with pedal steel on the gorgeous "The Devil's in the Sky," a song that could easily find its way onto a soundtrack for a Western. Fernando switch themes up again with a banjo-heavy "Pasajeros," sung entirely in Spanish. Still, with such a unique style, there's something nostalgic about Enter to Exit. It's somehow reminiscent of early- and mid-'90s melancholy alternative, and Fernando even incorporate Alice in Chains-style muddy distorted guitar licks onto "One Trick Pony." Enter to Exit is a dream from start to finish — an ethereal journey combining aspects of indie rock and roots rock. This is a group to keep your eyes out for.

Willamette Week Review

Willamette Week insinuation about Elliott/One Trick Pony
I would like to say that I just was forwarded a review of my new CD by the Willamette Week in Portland, Oregon. In the review the writer Casey Jarman favorably reviews my new CD(thanks) Enter to Exit, but this writer also insinuates in this article that my song "One Trick Pony" is a "stab" at the late Elliott Smith. This is absolutely incorrect. I knew and performed on bills with Elliott/heatmiser since1996 and I have had/have nothing but the greatest respect for him as an artist and as a human being, so to clear things up for ya'll........ this particular song is about me...me....me! Hey aren't they all?
DONT BELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU READ!
Below is the aforementioned review-
FERNANDO ENTER TO EXIT (IN MUSIC WE TRUST) Portland pop veteran recalls Elliott and John on his way to eviscerating the Posies. [POP] My first listen to Fernando's Enter to Exit coincided with my rediscovery of the Posies, which I found to be a pretty happy music- critic accident. Fernando's veteran Portland frontman, Fernando Viciconte, has a similar musical vision to the influential Posies CEO, Ken Stringfellow, as both twist the Beatles' warmly layered girl- song formulas to accommodate more somber and personal narratives. Both frontmen also share slightly feigned accents, though Viciconte ditches Stringfellow's nasal whine for John Lennon-esque pronunciation and tone. To the eager ear, Fernando will also draw Elliott Smith comparisons which are fair game in a town where Smith's influence is unavoidable. The doubled vocals and guitar stabs of "One Trick Pony" are eerily similar to Smith's darker work, with lyrics about "scars on my arm" keeping it suspect as a dig at the late Portland songwriter. The Lennon influence, though, is what really shines through on Enter to Exit. It's crystal-clear on "Everybody Knows," where Viciconte repeats "Everybody Knows/ Reapin' what you sow" in his best Lennon walk-down vocal over a jangly guitar line. But Viciconte's vocal presence is warmer than Lennon's, and devoid of the late Beatle's pissed-at-the-world baby-screams. If Fernando, the band, wears its influences on its sleeve, it certainly doesn't hurt Enter to Exit as an album. Viciconte is a formidable, personal songwriter, and his confessional tone finds a perfect vessel in the band's well-timed twists, turns and key changes. The production is seamless when it needs to be and absolutely epic at other times. Fernando's album-ending "Waiting," which takes a cue from "I Shall Be Released," is one of the more gorgeously thick tracks I've heard in a long time. The tune is carried by its slightly psychedelic production and Viciconte's commanding vocals, and it holds a couple of the many chill-inducing moments on Enter to Exit, which Fernando hides like easter eggs throughout. If the rest of Fernando's back catalog is as hook-laden and charming as this pop jewel, I'm pretty much over the Posies. CASEY JARMAN.

Fernando
Enter to Exit
2006
In Music We Trust

"Can you hear the drums, Fernando?"

There are three famous Fernandos that come to mind upon hearing the name. One is Fernando Lamas, notoriously spoofed by Billy Crystal for a series of SNL sketches. Another is the titular character of a song by Swedish supergroup Abba, as referenced by the quotation above. The third is Fernando Valenzuela, the former pitching phenom for my beloved Los Angeles Dodgers, and now one of their Spanish broadcast announcers. Music lovers can now add a fourth to that list with Fernando Viciconte, the singer / songwriter from Portland (by way of Los Angeles, by way of Argentina) who goes by first name only. In previous years, he's fronted the L.A. hard rock band Monkey Paw and has released an all Spanish language album, but now, five years after his last album release, he brings us Enter to Exit, a gorgeous alt-country collection that could end up defining his career.

With opener "Howard Hughes," Fernando sings as if he's having a hard time deciding whether he's more in love with Wilco or the Traveling Wilburys. In fact, the guitars are such that you would think his bandmates (members of the Eels and other Northwest bands) channeled George Harrison, Jeff Lynne and Tom Petty. It's with the second song that Fernando truly puts his own stamp on the album. "One Trick Pony" is like Bonnie "Prince" Billy covering Portishead in the style of Iron & Wine, slow, methodical, boozy and menacing, but with a hidden soft side. Disproving any relation to the previous title, Fernando again changes things up with the '60s pop sheen of "The Reluctant Deity," which resembles what you might imagine Elliott Smith would sound like played at double speed. There are quite a few similarities to fellow Portland and Los Angeles resident Smith throughout the record, making it feel all the more intimate.

After two slow, loping, spare and beautiful numbers in "Another Day in My Head" and "Mariana" (the second album I've reviewed this week to have a song with that particular title), Fernando brings the bounce back with "Everybody Knows" which has no relation to the Leonard Cohen song of the same name. Besides "One Trick Pony," one of the other standouts on the album is "The Devil's in the Sky," a lush pedal steel stunner with backup female vocals. Fernando's slightly gritty voice, along with the uncredited female, makes the song sound like a duet between Eagles-era Don Henley and Stevie Nicks. What makes Enter to Exit such a treat is its balance. The album traverses from lush pop harmony to the lonely sound of twanging steel, from slow, loping beauty to upbeat boogie-woogie piano, and from Fernando's sandpaper delivery to the kind of silky smooth vocals as found in closer "Waiting." Five years is a long time between records, but it appears that Fernando has used his time wisely, compiling an album of breathtaking intimate pop / folk / country.

In the song "From Now On," Fernando claims that he is "just a man who can smile when he lies," which reminds me of the great P.T. Barnum who once famously put a sign above a tent flap that read "Behold the great egress!" The rubes that didn't realize that `egress' meant `exit' and not some kind of exotic bird or mythical monster ended up outside the circus, having to pay a second entrance fee. I wonder if that's what Fernando meant with the title Enter to Exit. In any case, once the album ends, you end up more than willing to pay that second entrance fee.

Fernando - Enter to Exit In Music We Trust
4 STAR REVIEW

Bipolarity never sounded so good.

Words like "catchy" come to mind when listening to Fernando’s Enter to Exit, but they’re not quite right. "Catchy" can’t adequately describe the pleasant way “The Reluctant Diety” gets stuck in your head, or how after one listen to the melody of “Everybody Knows,” you feel like you’ve known it all your life. Enter to Exit isn’t just catchy — it’s bopping-shamelessly-around-your-room-in-your-favorite-pair-of-underwear catchy.
But words like "melancholy" also come to mind when listening to the album, though they, too, aren’t exactly right. "Melancholy" just doesn’t capture the abject longing in the weavings of the muted trumpet through “Mariana,” or the mournful sighs of the steel pedal in “Another Day In My Head.”
Balancing extremes like these is a difficult task, but Enter to Exit nails it, smoothly alternating between infectiously bouncy pop and wretchedly depressing, country-inflected rock. Supporting every song is a solid base of classic rock — a Rubber Soul-esque guitar strain here, an atmospheric darkness à la The Doors’ more pessimistic moments there. And just to keep things interesting, small but potent details, like traditional music from Fernando Viciconte’s native Argentina or the subtle hint of a woman singing behind his confident vocals, surface throughout the album. The result hooks into you with an aggressive urgency that’s hard to ignore, and a familiarity so profound it seems almost like Fernando isn’t just playing music — he’s uncovering something that’s already in you.

Dark songs set to a perky beat

• Beatles-esque pop from Fernando
• An incredibly good, can’t-get-the-songs-out-of-your-head Beatles-esque pop album with lyrics that may surprise you with their darkness. By Paige Newman

By Paige Newman
MSNBC
Updated: 1 hour, 33 minutes ago

Fernando Viciconte — who performs under the name Fernando because no one can pronounce his last name — has a bit of a dilemma. On the plus side, he’s just released the incredibly accomplished can’t-get-the-songs-out-of-your-head Beatles-esque pop album, “Enter to Exit.” It’s a departure for the singer, whose previous records ranged from roots rock to folk to a Spanish language album, and he’s very excited about it.
Which brings us to the problem: His throat. Fernando received a real scare last year when doctors thought he might have throat cancer. Thankfully that wasn't the case, but it turned out he was suffering from a bout of leukoplakia, causing an erosion of his esophagus and vocal cords. “It’s just been really frustrating,” he says, “You got a record out, you can’t tour, you can’t even do solo shows.
“It’s a matter of me rehabilitating [my throat],” Fernando explains, “Almost like an ACL tear or something. It’s me trying to get back into singing and touring shape.” He goes to the hospital five times a month for vocal therapy and is working hard to get back out on the road soon.
Here’s hoping it’s soon, because the second I heard “Enter to Exit,” it was hard not to picture myself in an intimate club setting watching the man work that John Lennon-esque voice of his.
But the 37-year-old jokes about his condition, too, saying, “I’m like an old man, I have to talk about my illnesses. It’s like I’m talking about my goiter.”
Needless to say, the illness, along with some other physical ailments, colored his songwriting on “Enter to Exit.” The thought of potentially never singing again sent him reeling. “A lot of the themes kind of touch on that lightly,” he says, “Kind of the whole feeling of not being there the whole time and having no energy.”
You definitely sense that feeling in songs like “Mariana,” in which he sings, “Oh Mariana queen of sleep / What do you have in store / For the likes of me.” The health uncertainty combined with the medication Fernando had to take — at one point, 12 Vicodin a day — fueled songs that seem to quest for clarity and focus.
In the song “Another Day in My Head,” he sings, “Are you losing contact with all the things that echo in your head? / Lord am I living or am I dead?”
Simply reading those lyrics, you might think, wow, this guy’s a real downer. But that’s the real surprise of the album. While the lyrics can be dark, the music is uplifting enough to get you moving.
“I live in Portland, Oregon, we have rain for about seven months of the year,” Fernando explains, “There’s no other way to write. I try and write happier songs, but probably the best I can do is write happy music.”
My favorite song on the CD is the darkly tongue-in-cheek break-up song “From Now On.” With its bouncy beat, and lyrics like “From now on I’ll never call your name / And if I do return, it will only be to hurt you again / So go ahead and cry,” it’s hard not to let out an evil giggle while listening to it. Fernando laughs when I tell him about my reaction: “I’m glad you’re not taking that seriously and thinking I’m a complete dick.”
There are definitely a couple guys from the Eels who seem to have a high opinion of him. For the past three years, Derek Brown and Chet Lyster have been making music with him on the side. “I produced this [album] with Chet,” Fernando says, “And he was a great help in this record, both in engineering it and as a second ear to the project.”
He also got a bit of help from jazz singer Michael Jodell, who lent vocals to three songs, including the gorgeous, “Devils in the Sky” and “Mariana.” “She just kind of came down that very same day we had the idea and cut the track in like 30 minutes,” Fernando explains, adding that he would love to work with Jodell again. “If she’s willing to take me again. I’ll bring the drinks.”
When they do hit the road and swing through my town, I’ll buy the drinks. Fernando estimates that he’ll be well enough to start a West Coast tour in October. “I’m really optimistic.”

Oregonian Record Review

Fernando presses on
Friday, July 07, 2006
CURT SCHULZ
During a decade and a half-dozen releases, Portland songwriter Fernando Viciconte has developed a singing voice that has transformed from the Dylanesque rasp of his folk-oriented 1990s work, to the hot Southwestern drawl of his barrio rock CD, "Pacoima," to a breathily Lennon-like instrument he developed for 2001's "Dreams of the Sun and Sky."
On his new album, "Enter to Exit," Fernando's vocals have ripened to a sharp maturity. There's enough warmth and sheer exuberance, even on the downbeat tunes, to make the occasional buzz and creak sound like the small flawed brushstroke on the canvas that makes the picture perfect.
Better still, "Enter to Exit" features ace writing and offers a rich variety of sonic textures and colors. Lap-steel guitars swirl around organ lines, and easy-listening trumpets inspire dreamy reverie ("Another Day in My Head"). Piano and brushes-on-snare carry the torch ballad "Mariana" while leaving plenty of space for the important unplayed notes.
The whole work manages to come across as both huge and intimate.
Fernando's lyrical concerns keep to the same themes he's been chewing on for the past decade, with faith ("The Reluctant Deity"), disillusionment ("The Change in Us") and failure ("My Magnetic Field") making their usual appearances. But redemption's found in his endless existential struggle to push forward: He can't go on; he'll go on.
On "Enter to Exit," Fernando has discovered that the next step to sounding like somebody great is simply sounding like yourself and having that be great enough.
