Three Imaginary Girls

Seattle's Indie-Pop Press – Music Reviews, Film Reviews, and Big Fun

LOTS of new releases this Tuesday!

The Cave Singers' release on Matador is finally out! I LOVE this record to bits. They are hands down my favorites from this year's Bumbershoot and KEXP BBQ and the timing is just right for crisp Fall listening. AND they will be here @ QA Easy Street TONIGHT @ 6 PM for their record release performance, so come on down!

I haven't heard it yet, but I am so curious about Bobbie Nelson's (Willie's sister) FIRST release!?! It's out on Justice Records, which is the new home of Seattle's own Visqueen.

Iron & Wine has a new one The Shepard's Dog out today. I have been listening to the single so much that I am stoked to have more of it. They just announced this morning that they will be bringing it to the Moore on December 3rd, which sucks because I will be at Van Halen!! (Unless the tour implodes by then.)
