Back In A Week

Sorry for the lack of posts. I got hitched, now I'm on a little vaca. I'll be back at it soon. For tunes check out Aquarium Drunkard.

Bon Iver - Calgary

Bon Iver has been slow to follow up his stellar For Emma, Forever Ago; but today we get the first listen from his upcoming S/T release, with a lovely little jam entitled: Calgary.

JAGJAGUWAR will be releasing the album, June 21st in the States. You can pre-order now.

They've announced a smattering of dates which you can check out at their website. However, nothing in LA yet.

Stream Calgary below or download your own copy with an email address.

Enjoy!

Okkervil River - I Am Very Far

I would say in the past year or two there have been some pretty fantastic ploys to promotionally raise the profile of your band; see: Radiohead, the advent of the free album stream a week prior to release, live webcasting of concerts etc. etc.

Okkervil River brings a new dog to the fight, with a live concert webcast of their upcoming album, I Am Very Far performed live, front to back. Pretty cool, huh?

Check it out today (April 27th) @ 7 pm ET thanks to NPR Music - here.

I Am Very Far drops May 10, via JAGJAGUWAR and you can pre-order a whole array of album formats at the bands website.

Enjoy!
