Everyone's favorite spooky songstresses, The Sandwitches , will play at the Brick & Mortar Music Hall on Thursday, April 12th, with Deep Time (Yellow Fever) and Muscle Drum (Rob Spector from Bronze). If you're not familiar with their bewitching, old-timey, falsetto-speckled sound, where lovelorn americana meets garage, it would behoove you to check out their two excellent LPs—2009's How to Make Ambient Sadcake and last year's Mrs. Jones' Cookies —before getting to the show. Or at least listen to the A-side from their latest offering, The Pearl 7-inch, [...]
Monday Music's the one weekly post in which SOIWT dispenses with its London-only rule, and goes global. Here's this week's instalment: The Sandwitches - The Pearl And first for a musical sound unlike anything you've ever heard, courtesy of Hardly Art records. There's flickery feedback and a musty distant feel, like an illicit long-player recording from the 1940s; there are vocals so warbly that mums across the land will sing along; and there are tremulous organ swirls so deliciously [...]
San Francisco's Sandwitches make enchanting country-pop for the garage-rock crowd.
11.David Thomas Broughton - Ain't Got No Sole The first song we heard from DTB's fantastic album, and perhaps the poppiest of the lot. Catchy, unusual and immensely hummable. 12.Kurt Vile - Baby's Arms Another album from which it is tricky to extricate just one song as a highlight, but for some reason I'm giving this the nod above Jesus Fever or Puppet to the Man . I think it's the most late night and glass of red winey song on the album, but it's close. 13.The [...]

So, ta-daaah, here we go, what all right-thinking people have been enjoying most this year. And if you haven't been enjoying these most this year, then dammit, what do you do when I tell you what opinions to have about music, ignore me? Surely such a thing is inconceivable. As those of you who listened to last week's podcast, where I played two songs from the more forgotten albums on my first ever Albums of the Year list (2004), I am actually more fascinated by these lists in retrospect than at the time. Looking [...]
The time has come for me to regurgitate an entire years worth of music on to the digital table so you can pick through the mess and see what I liked and possibly find something you missed or something you agree with or something you've never heard of and suddenly like. As usual there are [...]
Here is the promised second half of my favorite 50 tracks of 2011. If you happened to be within earshot of me at all this year, I want you to know that I am in no way sorry for the amount of airtime these 25 tracks got. Although what I am sorry for is the ridiculous amount of embedded youtube videos on here. I wasn't feeling particularly creative and I didn't feel like getting blacklisted :X … 25 Earth Girl Helen Brown :: "I Walked All Night" [...]
It's been a banner year for Hardly Art. Seemingly back-to-back-to-back-to-back fantastic albums filled out a year capped of by the Gem Club album Breakers, a truly somber bit of orchestration. To celebrate the festive days cluttering up the calender before the inevitable turn towards 2012, the good folk at Hardly Art sent over a list [...]
Sorry the blogging has been a bit on the lean side lately but pretty much all the free time has been occupied playing bass in the bands I'm in. My friend Chris Nickey and I played over 50 shows throughout this past year year with our band Chris And Tommy's Good Time Folk Rock Show and now we're closing out 2011 in a big way with our first show at Philadelphia's renowned Tin Angel. Come on out and help us celebrate on Friday December 30th. Grab a nice dinner downstairs at Serrano restaurant [...]

Two years ago, I ran a series of guest posts from people involved in Irish music featuring their top 5 Irish acts at that moment. This time around, I thought I'd shift the focus to international and ask a similar question -
The Verdi Club will be hosting fantastic events two Saturdays in a row. This Saturday, December 3rd, will feature the Bay Brewed (sorry, couldn't resist). And next Saturday, December 10th, Dusty Stax and the Bold Italic have put together a very special event in the spirit of the holiday . This Winter Formal Dance will feature classy attire and a plethora of local garage rock musicians: Over the summer, Dusty Stax's "Let Her Dance" took San Francisco back in a time machine for a huge celebration of '60s soul. [...]
Parte domani sera il tour italiano delle Sandwitches , band di San Francisco nata tre anni fa da Grace Cooper e Heidi Alexander, già backing vocals per Fresh & Onlys, e dalla batterista Roxy Brodeur. Il giro è quello di Sonny & The Sunsets, Mantles e il resto della balotta della città californiana, ma il suono delle Sandwitches punta in una direzione meno strettamente garage e più barocca. La label le presenta come "a Holy Communion of Roky Erickson and Stevie Nicks", e io sottolinerei anche una predilezione per certi toni più cupi, come la versione teatrale e ironica [...]
I love this video because I feel like I could actually make this. With less sweet drawings. Sophia Mcinerney is the genius behind this video. High five, lady. It's for The Sandwitches "Benny's Memory Palace" off the Pearl 73 . via GvsB .
As the trio kicks off a European tour, The Sandwitches have also released two new music videos. In "In the Garden," from Mrs. Jones' Cookies , the trio takes the stage at Esta Noche for a mood-lit, choreographed dance performance. The fun animated video for "Benny's Memory Palace," which you can watch below, accompanies the B-side to the band's new 73. Karaoke fans: when was the last time an indie video had "following the bouncing ball" lyrics included? (via Gorilla vs. Bear ) [...]
If you're anything like us, you can't get enough of the three San Diego ladies behind the Sandwitches and the stunning, yearning, Southern Gothic folk-pop they've crafted effortlessly on their 2011 full-length Mrs. Jones' Cookies and the myriad miscellaneous tracks they've released this year.

I'm hardly shy in my love of The Sandwitches, the amazing all girl neo-country rock band from San Francisco. "In The Garden" is taken from the band's newest album Mrs. Jones' Cookies , and the accompanying video is a rather surreal take on the already dark tune. There's a man in nun's attire. That's probably all that needs to be said. You can order a copy of Mrs. Jones' Cookies from Endless Nest . [ via ] The Sandwitches "In The Garden" from Ryan Browne on [...]
