Another Courtney Barnett Post


And I'll keep posting them until she gets a chance to play here. For God's sake, will somebody please bring this girl to Atlanta?!!!

Pickwick

Pickwick at The Earl (with  Basia Bulat), April 30, 2013
Oh, look.  Our old friends Pickwick, the best band you've never heard of, just recorded a Daytrotter session, which you can listen to or download if you're a member.

Enjoy.

Typhoon


If you're a fan or orchestral folk-rock, you know, bands like Beirut, Lost In The Trees, Fanfarlo, and Shearwater, or, if you live in Atlanta, Little Tybee and Oryx & Crake (if you live in San Francisco, Family Crest, I suppose), and you haven't yet heard Portland's Typhoon, arguably the best of all of them, then prepare yourself because you're in for a real treat.

Here they are, all 11 of them, in an August 29 session at Oregon Public Broadcasting.
