BE AROUND U (SAIL A WHALE REMIX) by o F F Love

The Girls At Dawn: Call The Doctor LP out soon.

Brooklyn trio The Girls at Dawn make great modern psyche garage stuff, girl band rock 'n jangle. Dum Dum Girls crossed with The Black Lips, with a touch of Best Coast.. you know.

They've had a few great 7" singles out already, but coming soon is their debut album 'Call The Doctor' out on Norton Records in September.

At the moment they're touring the album across the States, dates here.

Go see them if you can.

Cerebral Ballzy U.K Tour!!

Cerebral Ballzy are doing a short UK tour!!

From New York they do proper punk hardcore like it used to be, and they get wrecked and skate and drink forties!

They're playing at The Old blue Last on 2nd August and also at the Sexbeat Radfest on the 8th! As well as a string of dates across the UK from Leeds to Folkestone, Newquay and Cardiff!

Full details on their Myspace page.

Below is footage of their gig in Brooklyn from five months ago, I doubt much has changed since then!

Go see them and mosh and through yourself about and buy any t.shirts they have!

Colleen Green and Girlfriends summer tour.

Girlfriends are a trashy indie-punk three piece from Boston that make me think of The Pixies and The Moldy Peaches.

They have a free two track EP called "Good To Be true" available to download for free from their Bandcamp page (one is a Vaselines cover!) and two EPs to buy real cheap.

It's all really catchy stuff that has been stuck in my head for months! They also have a fun and constantly updated tour Tumblr here.

They are on a massive self booked tour around the U.S at the moment with Colleen Green.

Colleen Green is a one woman band from Oakland California who sings, plays electric guitar over a drum machine and generally make a great lo-fi garage punk sound. Kind of where the Anti-folk sound went after all the original bands started going in different directions and being over produced by hippies.

She has various tapes and Cds available from her Myspace and I guess from all her shows!

The tour is hitting up Wisconsin, Chicago, Ohio, Kentucky, New Jersey, Brooklyn, and loads of over places the listing are on both bands Myspace pages.

Glasser, UK tour dates!!

So.. Glasser who I blogged about on 2nd February is releasing Tremel as a 12" on Young Turks. Its out on the 29th March in the UK. With a bunch of remixes. But proceeding that she's touring here! First there's a gig with Is Tropical on the 4th March, then five dates supporting The XX!!

There is/was so little info about this artist that I never thought she would be hitting up this country!
