An Horse
Santigold will be at the Phoenix on June 3rd.
I hate myself for forgetting to mention this (although to be fair, I said it on Twitter when I found out a few days ago) - Laura Barrett and The Phonemes will be at the Tranzac on Thursday, April 2nd. And on April 3rd,Out of This Spark Records will present Picastro, Casey Mecjia (Ohbijou, Bruce Peninsula), and Chris Sutherland at the front room of the Tranzac. Doors for both shows will be at 10:00 pm and the April 3rd show is Pay What You Can.
Green Go will be celebrating the release of their new album Borders at the Wrong Bar on April 30th, along with special guests The Magic, Everything All the Time and DJ sets by OPOPO. Cover is $5.00 – worth it!
In case you missed Australia’s An Horse during CMW, the duo will be back on April 21st, opening for Appleseed Cast at the Horseshoe. Tickets are still available for $10.00 and this will be a 19+ event.
Lewis and Clark will open for Bat For Lashes at the Mod Club on April 25th. Tickets are still available for $15.00 and this will also be a 19+ event.
Opening for The Pains of Being Pure At Heart at Lee’s on April 28th will be Brooklyn’s Zaza.
Portland’s Grouper will join Animal Collective on tour this summer. Look for them to make a stop at the Sound Academy on May 16th. I do believe tickets are sold out for this event though.
And last but not least in “opening acts” news, Montreal’s David MacLeod will be opening for Plants and Animals at the Mod Club on May 7th. Tickets are still available for $15.00 and this event will be 19+.
Sunset Rubdown has announced details about their new album, entitled Dragonslayer. Read more about it (and take a look at the sweet album cover) here!
And to end off today’s news update, I’d like to dedicate this post to Blender Magazine, as the publication will be shutting down, with its current issue on newsstands being its last. I had stopped reading Blender for quite some time now, but I was a fan at one point; they will be missed.
Happy listening!
Musically,
Melody
