Porlandia Tour - San Francisco - 'Push It'
Watch the Portlandia stars sing Salt-N-Pepa's 'Push It' in San Francisco with help from Thao and Mirah.

No Title

No Title Fred Armisen (“Saturday Night Live”) and Carrie Brownstein (Wild Flag, Sleater-Kinney), actors/comedians/musicians of Portlandia, from the hilarious cult comedy series are making their way across the USA bringing the romanticized and dreamy rendering of Portland, OR to life for fans across the country. Last night they hit San Francisco and during the show, they put on their hip-hop cred with a special performance of Salt-N-Pepa's 'Push It' featuring Thao With the Get Down Stay Down singer Thao Nguyen, who dominates the mic, while Mirah, Nguyen's partner in the duo Thao and Mirah, drops backing vocals. Fred and Carrie on guitars. [...]

Best of 2011 / DUL’s Top Albums

Best of 2011 / DUL’s Top Albums We've heard some people say that 2011 was a bad year for music. We want to know what music they were listening to. Us guys (and gals) at DUL thought it was a pretty nice 365 days of tunes and we have the list to prove it. This year, with the formal inclusion of Brendan into the administrative ranks (imagine something similar to a knighting ceremony involving beards), we had to combine our separate, favorite albums into one list. Christ. It was hard, let.me.tell.you. In conclusion, after some vigorous emails and g-chatting, we came up with our Top 12. Why [...]

LIVE REVIEW: Thao & Mirah @ The New Parish 5/3

Worth ditching a new episode of Glee and hustlin' on into Oakland on a school night for. THAT GOOD.

ALBUM REVIEW: “Thao & Mirah” by Thao & Mirah

Thao & Mirah's self-titled album is probably a once in a life time production, but is not fully remarkable.

Thao + Mirah – When We Swam (Live)

Thao + Mirah – When We Swam (Live) As part of NYC's Northside festival Thao Nguyen as of Thao with the Get Up and Get Down played a combined set with Mirah with both combining bands and performing songs from each others catalog. Great idea, great show.  Since Thao's songs feature double tracked vocals and backing vocals, it was great to have a few additional strong female vocalists to reinforce the lead live.  TSOI regulars might remember that Thao with the Get Up and Get Down scored a big hit with me with their album Know Better [...]
