Não o país, entenda-se, mas sim as datas que tinha confirmadas para o nosso país. É a própria que o diz no seu Facebook. E explica porquê: "Dear portuguese friends, Due to scheduling conflicts, we are moving our June Portugal tour dates to October. Sorry to all the fans, promoters, venues for the inconvenience... Can't wait to see you in October". Original Website: Bodyspace

At home with Marnie... As axe-mistress Marnie Stern prepares for her latest fretboard assault on Europe beginning with a Birmingham date in just over a week's time, loyal Sternites continue to salivate over the New Yorker's latest record, the majestically titled The Chronicles of Marnia . The shred-queen recently invited WNYC's Soundcheck into her living room for a stripped-down set and a bit of an elaboration regarding her apartment's technicoloured centre-piece. Watch the entire session below. [...]
Marnie Stern takes the Best Fit Q&A and tells us all about her dreams of flying, fears of being stuck in limbo and who she'd most like to apologise to. Who would play you in the movie of your life? That's a tough one!! Sara Silverman? What would your superpower be and why? To fly! Isn't that everyone's dream? What’s your idea of heaven? Nothing to do but rest and relax. [...]
By now most folks know where I stand on the present sensitive folk movement. Mainly that I’m over it. So today I thought I would prove I'm capable of more than just bitching and post some bands I actually like. And no, none of them formed in the 90’s. In my latest search for bands [...] The post Songs I like: Ladies Night appeared first on Your Music Is Awful.com .

All photos by Chris Sikich | countfeed.tumblr.com Shredding the night away, Marnie Stern and her crackling band headlined a night of indie rock awesomeness at Johnny Brenda’s on Friday. The tightness of the openers — phenomenal Philly locals Little Big League and the hard-rock stylings Barren Girls — readied the crowd for the entrancing guitar riffs and sweet yet edgy vocals of Stern, who was joined by bassist Nithin Kalvakota and drummer Joe Wong. By the second song, Wong’s shirt was off and the crowd was thrashing about, tossing [...]

There's a big summer brewing for Post Post alums Little Big League , who recently announced that they will be part of the Tiny Engines ( Restorations , Tigers Jaw , Dikembe) lineage and that the indie label will be releasing their debut LP These Are Good People , which was produced by Craig Hendrix. And if the single My Very Own You is any indication, things should be heating up for the local four-piece. Tonight's show at Johnny Brenda's will be a great time to catch the band and preview some new [...]

Robert Semmer On the list of ideal days on which to announce a tour itinerary, there's not many occasions better than the day the album you're actually going to promote goes on sale. And so yesterday, with the official release of their latest full-length Monomania , Atlanta's Deerhunter have announced the itinerary for their Fall tour behind it. It's an outing that brings them to The Phoenix in Toronto on September 12, and that leg of the tour also includes support from Marnie Stern , who herself released [...]

"Marnie Stern has thrilled us for years with her fretwork and charming rock. None of that has changed here. Yes, there's a poppier gloss than her diehard fans are possibly used to, but all that's changed - and it's not even a particularly massive change - is her approach to the music. Things are snappier, more infectious, arguably simpler, but ultimately just as rewarding. She's always been a legend on the six-string and a fascinating songsmith, but just because she's chilled out and scattered a few chart-poised hooks, doesn't mean she should be lambasted. This is the same old brand [...]

I can't even begin to articulate how long I've been waiting for this to happen – for visceral, yet deftly vulnerable Leodensian trio Sky Larkin to return. And as such to a degree, there's no statement they could've by this point released that would've feasibly lived up to the highly animated anticipation fizzling from my every pore and tszujing up my every particle, unless it were to brim with the animalistic intent so many of their songs have previously. And Motto, I'm absolutely thrilled and commensurately relieved to reveal, is no exception: "If I had a motto I would [...]
Incendiary guitar goddess Marnie Stern returned to San Francisco last night in support of her fourth and most accessible LP, the wondrously titled The Chronicles of Marnia. The show, which transpired at the Rickshaw Stop, drew a full house of giddily enthusiastic fans, or at least what passes for "giddily enthusiastic" on a Sunday night [...] The post Show Review: Marnie Stern with SISU and E V Kain at the Rickshaw Stop, 4/28/2013 appeared first on Spinning Platters .
