New releases for the week, from Easy Street Records

This week's new releases looks like some kinds of flashback or a Halloween trick, but alas it's true: Arrested Development, Backstreet Boys, Blues Traveler, and Britney are all back with new records.

Best news of the week is the release of Carrie Akre's Last The Evening {see review}. Even if you don't know her from her other work, this is still a remarkable album and features the (drum) work of other local favorite Mark Pickerel.

Want some fall funk? Pick up Sharon Jones and The Dap Kings.

Want sweet crooning? Tift Merrit joins the list of illustrious folks who have been featured in the Austin City Limits "Live From Austin Texas" series today.

Here's the list:

ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT - Since The Last Time
BACKSTREET BOYS - Unbreakable
BLUES TRAVELER - Cover Yourself
CARRIE AKRE - Last The Evening
IAN BELL - Who Goes There
SHARON JONES & THE DAP- KINGS - 100 Days - 100 Nights
MARAH - Can't Take It With You
NICOLE ATKINS - Neptune City
PUCIFIER - V is for Vagina
BRITNEY SPEARS - Blackout
TIFT MERRIT - Live From Austin Texas

Remember that Easy Street on Lower Queen Anne is open until midnight on Mondays for new releases!

Trick or Treat!

Jesse, have you heard Nicole Atkins yet? I think you'd really likey. You should try to get her in later this week when she's in town (playing on 11/1 with the Pipettes). I'd totally come!

Ian Bell's solo album intrigues me. His work with Gomez is pretty darn good.

Heavens to Betsy, it's about time Nicole's album dropped! Watch her on Letterman tomorrow night, kiddies! She's playing "The Way It Is," according to a reputable source (ie: her).

Yay!

I am SO behind on new music!

Nicole has been in my "to listen" pile for weeks and I haven't gotten to her yet.

I do like the bits I have heard in the store, but hardly counts as a listen!

Maybe if she tags along with the Pipettes for their In Store we can chant her onto the stage too.
