As mentioned in my CMJ review of Courtesy Tier‘s show at Arlene’s Grocery, I was determined to join lots of other fans to celebrate the band’s EP release last Tuesday. Many came out to see Courtesy Tier as well as the opening bands Yankee Longstraw, Spritzer and Isadora. The latter[…]
Start the week with this beautiful Song Pick of the Day Breathe by London duo Dahlia Sleeps. With its restraint, emotional vocals and build up it reminds me on Banks’ work. I didn’t find anything else by them yet, but will keep my eyes open.

In the light of Jenny Lee Lindbergs first solo show ever yesterday at Baby’s All Right (watch out for photos in the next days), here’s a throwback to 2010, when her band’s ascent to a indie rock favorite with fans all over the world began. I’m sure the four members[…]
