Saint Bernadette released their fifth album, The Nevers last week and are currently on the road with New Jersey's ONLY LIVING BOY . OLB will open each evening's show with their "riff-driven, no-nonsense rock and roll" ( Aquarian Weekly ), then remain onstage as the core backing group for Saint Bernadette. Saint Bernadette's lead vocalist Meredith DiMenna collaborated on a track with Only Living Boy's Joe Cirotti for a cover of Simon & Garfunkel's "El Condor Pasa," a fitting homage considering the origin of [...]
In the past few years much ink has been spilt discussing "mashups," the process of remixing two or more songs together. The weirder the combination, the more impressive the feat. DJs like Girl Talk lead the charge, but due to differing keys and tempos the pairings sometimes sound forced. Mashup covers, on the other hand, have more freedom. Here are ten odd couples and unchained medleys that,
Armed with DiMenna's take-charge vocals and the tight and masterful music-makers that support her, Saint Bernadette create a lively and kinetic mix of rock that while completely relevant today, it also contains hints of Concrete Blonde 's earlier recordings; DiMenna herself possessing a Napolitano-like grit.

Long time readers are familiar with the name Saint Bernadette . I wrote about their debut album, In the Ballroom , back in November of 2007 . They were kind enough to tell me about one of the songs (and the story about how Ashford & Simpson played at their wedding) from their follow-up EP, I Wanna Tell You Something , in March of 2008 . And now, after a long hiatus, the band has released their newest offering, their Word To The Lourdes EP . Just as their sophomore EP was [...]

"Wrap It Up", Saint Bernadette's 2nd single from the Word To The Lourdes EP (out now on Exotic Recordings), is as BUST Magazine said about the group, "Sweet as an angel and edgy as hell." Driving drums & searing electric guitars kick off "Wrap It Up", a charged agro-rock homage to groups like ZZ Top & AC/DC. Check it out. "Wrap It Up" | download Taking inspiration from Dave Chappelle's infamous "Wrap it Up" box, Saint Bernadette have [...]
Estas son las apuestas para lo nuevo en cuestiones de pop sofisticado y bien hecho: Little Boots País: Inglaterra Nombre real: Victoria Hesketh. No se le puede discutir absolutamente nada, se ha convertido en una de las promesas musicales del 2009 y por supuesto, en la muestra viviente que el pop es un arte cuando se sabe enfocar. Como dato curioso, el instrumento electrónico que se encarga de hacerle las estructuras musicales se puede encontrar de [...]
Saint Bernadette | Le Poisson Rouge | April 22, 2009 I had never heard Saint Bernadette before Thursday night's show with .357 Lover , but I'm certainly glad I stuck around. They were celebrating the release of their new EP, Word To The Lourdes , which was released on April 14 by Exotic Recordings. Though it seemed like the group had a wide variety of influences, it all came together with the beautiful lead female vocals. Check out photos from the show and an MP3 from the EP [...]

Sorry 'bout the lack of posts recently... real life (yes, it exists!) has got me in its firm grip once again. I have an overflowing News-Folder with music I should listen to, the mailbox awaits a major clean-out, and messages on MySpace keep piling up as well. I usually don't like posting just songs with no information about them, but I guess I'll just have to make a compromise here and leave it up to you if you listen to the stuff or not. Here's to better times! New one from Jarvis Cocker [...]
The Boy Least Likely To - "The One That I Want" ; The Boy Least Likely To are just too damn cute. Not only do they make some of the finest twee sounds out there, they also are able to go out and cover a song from Grease and make it like it's a part of their catalog. This tune is bumping! Grade : B+ Better Then Ezra - "Absolutely Still" ; If you click [...]
The Catholic Church canonized Saint Bernadette (the Saint) because her body was said to have not decayed after her death and burial. This is an apt metaphor for Saint Bernadette (the Band) new six-song EP Word to the Lourdes. The band plays a style of music that may have been thought dead, but from them [...]

A new EP 'Word To The Lourdes' is out in a couple of weeks, from Saint Bernadette - doesn't Meredith sound more than a bit like the guy from Scissor Sisters on this track?, just me I expect, cuz it also brought a glammed & camped up Avengers to mind, which is a huge plus. If the rest of the ep's as good, it'll be a treat. ♫ Already Gone - Saint Bernadette Word To The Lourdes EP (April 14) myspace | buy & info [...]
Rock para nenas... o rock hecho por un mujeron es una etiqueta un poquito más apegada a lo que Saint Bernadette es en realidad. Definida ella misma como una femme fatale, Meredith DiMenna, vocalista del grupo, encabeza a un puñado de rockeros que están por lanzar el primero de 3 Ep's que tendrán su lugar en el 2009. Word To The Lourdes contendrá 6 canciones que tienen un toque más rudo que sus anteriores álbums. El título del EP tiene curiosas razones, una de ellas es [...]
