LOCASH is high on life Country duo to perform at the DeJoria Center SCOTT IWASAKI The Park Record Preston Brust, who along with Chris Lucas are known as the country-music duo LOCASH, who will perform at the DeJoria Center on Friday, has a lot to be thankful for. The duo’s album “The Fighters,” which was released in 2016, and peaked at No. 14 on Billboard’s U.S. Country album charts, thanks to the hits “I Love This Life,” “Ring on Every Finger” and the No. 1 charting “I Know Somebody.” Last year the LOCASH garnered an array of music-award nominations include Academy of Country Music’s New Vocal Duo or Group of the Year, Country Music Association’s Vocal Duo of the Year and Country Music TV’s Duo Video of the Year. Not bad for two guys who penned the Keith Urban’s No. 1 hit “You Gonna Fly” and Tim McGraw’s Top 20 single “Truck Yeah.” “I moved to Nashville to become a songwriter,” Brust said.. “Chris was already here pursuing an artist career, and when we met, we found we had a lot of the same interest in music, and we also had the same drive and the same vision and goals.” Although songwriting was their day job, the two made names for themselves as emcees Continued from C-1 Filmmaker, composer talk shop New York Times Talk panel discussion that was moderated by Times contributing writer Logan Hill at the Sundance Film Festival’s Cinema Cafe on Saturday.

LOCASH is known for the hits “I Know Somebody,” “I Love This Life” and “Ring on Every Finger.” and DJs at Nashvilled’s Wild Horse Saloon. “We would sit backstage and talk about our dreams and realized we were on the same page, so we jumped into my Jeep Cherokee, got a U-Haul, filled it with some instruments, hired a band and hit the road,” Brust said. The concerts featured the duo’s high-energy and crowd-pleasing country songs. “And that’s where we wanted to go,” Brust said. The road for LOCASH, which was originally called LoCash Cowboys, continues, and Brust and Lucas are on the brink of finishing their latest album. “We have cut 14 or 15 songs and will only pick 11 for the album,” Brust said. “I was listening to the all the songs backto-back this morning, and it was like picking a baseball team. Who’s on the varsity team or who is on the JV team?” One song, “It Don’t Get Better Than That” was released earlier this month. “I feel like the song chose itself,” Brust said. “It’s like an anthem with real lyrics that hit people right in the heart. We played it for everyone on our team, and it felt like this was it, the leadoff hitter.” Still, Brust and Lucas felt the pressures of writing a batch of exceptionally good songs after all of the accolades and recognition from the past two years. “We try to tune everything out and just get back to what we do,” Brust said. “We just needed to concentrate on making 2018 and 2019 the best yeas we can, because we can’t look back at 2017 and say we have to be that great or better.” Brust enjoys songwriting for others, but feels a special rush while writing for himself and Lucas. “Then I found out through Caroline that he was actually interested,” Van Sant told a standing-room-only audience. “So we concocted ‘To Die For.’” Elfman, who has scored more than 100 films since his days in the rock band Oingo Boingo, said the first thing they needed to do was see how each other fared artistically. “Especially with music, you don’t get a treatment version,” Elfman said. “When you have a writer, you might get a treatment for a story and then flesh it out for a full script, but with music, you’re going on trust until the person is hired on the project and you hear the music.” So the first thing Van Sant did was to give Elfman free rein to create music on a couple of scenes. “[He] made a few different versions of ideas that he carefully wanted to walk me through and show me what was different about them,” Van Sant said. “I remembered saying, ‘Why don’t you take the movie and make the score and I’ll see you [later].” That’s how directors and composers, such as Alfred Hitchcock and Bernard Herman, worked in the old days, Elfman said. “They didn’t do demos,” he said. “So Hitchcock never got to hear scores until it was with the orchestra in the studio, but I am from the school where the director is involved with every decision. My style of writing is to look at a scene and come up with a number of options.” That process especially worked with “To Die For,” which is a comedy and crime drama staring Nicole Kidman and Matt Dillon. “I like to [think of] the directors as if they are in an optometrist’s chair,” Eflman said. “You can go, ‘A or B?’ Or ‘One or two?’ And focus in on the score.” The composer said he left it up to Van Sant or his assistants to select the choice. “I’m indecisive about every- thing. I can think of every reason why this one or that one works,” he sad. “Unless it’s a superhero movie where there is a superhero’s or villain’s theme, where everybody knows it needs to be this kind of thing, the odder the film is tone wise, the more you can do with the music to get people locked into the mindset.” Van Sant and Elfman’s new project, “Don’t Worry, He Won’t Get Far on Foot,” is based on a memoir of the same title by late cartoonist John Callahan, known for his darkly comedic style. Callahan was an alcoholic, and after a terrible car accident, which was caused by his friend who was driving, ended up in a wheelchair. “For this type of movie, I’m not going to write character themes,” Elfman said. “[However] there are some themes that repeat, but they aren’t his theme.” The composer has noticed an evolution with his collaborations with Van Sant over the years. “With each film he’s gotten much more confident of wanting me to try more stuff,” Elfman said. “Before he was very shy, but now, he’ll say, ‘Do you mind if we take all the cues and put them in completely different places?’ And I’m fine with it because it actually makes it more interesting. I like being pushed.” SUDOKU 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 24 29 32 34 36 37 39 41 Author Zora __ Hurston “__ is an island”: Donne Sandal feature Abbr. in home sale ads Staying power Related on mom’s side Literature Nobelist Walcott “__: Cyber”: 2015 spin-off “May I speak?” King or queen Quick denial Pie equivalent, in a simile Canterbury commode Half a strait-laced pair?
