When Corrina Repp and Joe Haege formed Tu Fawning several years back, the outfit screamed "side project!" Repp had released three solo albums and had earned the reputation as one of Portland, OR's better female vocalists, while Haege had his own career as the frontman of 31Knots. Even with 20082s Secession EP and 20102s Hearts on Hold LP (with Liza Rietz and Toussaint Perrault) , Repp and Haege juggled other projects, Repp as a member of Viva Voce in 2009, and Haege as a touring member of Menomena. The hyper-prolific [...]

The nine tracks on this new disc are layered and musically dense and show the band heading down a dark path similar to some of the early 80's post-punk, gothic bands (Siouxsie and the Banshees, The Birthday Party).

Tu Fawning's latest single, "Anchor" from their forthcoming sophomore LP, A Monument takes nearly four minutes to get fully underway. When it does, full of overlapping melody and ratatat tams, the song swells like storm surge puffing itself full of a bit of terrible megalomania. The opening moments portend only slivers of this danger, rumbling drums and falsetto vocals, a sparseness that

We're not going to lie, we missed Tu Fawning the first time they came around, when they released their debut album Hearts On Hold back in 2010. It's a damn cool record, and one that has now got us frothing out the mouth (not literally, that would be gross) for A Monument , which is out on May 7th. Its first single, Anchor , captures perfectly what they do so well: gut-wrenching noir-pop. Built on top of a shimmering synth motif it's a slow-burning gem, with Corrina Repp's easily catching you off [...]
Monday, April 16, 2012 Today's Quick Mention: There's not a lot worth catching tonight, but if you do decide to get out you could head to 29th Street Ballroom for the Wolf, Shivery Shakes, Sexploits, and Unknown Relatives. These songs should make your Monday better. Enjoy. : The Memories - Softly : I think this might be the quickest two minute track I've come across in a long time. It starts, I get wrapped [...]

Listen to the lead single "Anchor".

Corrina Repp and Joe Haege (31Knots) first came together as Tu Fawning to pursue collaboration outside of the boundaries of their respective projects. On May 15th, Tu Fawning will release its sophomore album, A Monument , via City Slang, building on top of the collaborative spirit the duo began with 20102s Hearts On Hold . According to a press release, Repp and Haege expanded the creative dynamic to further include members Liza Rietz and Toussaint Perrault. The foursome then moved beyond the sample-heavy tunes of album #1, "using synths more heavily yet with no [...]

Tu Fawning return this May with their sophomore release, A Monument . While the band retain their trademark sound in Corrina Repp's formidable voice, the swampy blues-guitar howls are now replaced by a newfound love for vibrant percussive mania. A more ample use of keyboards have steered the band past the morbidly dark vaudevillian vibes of their 2010 debut album Hearts On Hold , and these new songs are even more focused and pointed than ever. A Monument delivers a set of dense, romantic, and highly energetic songs that fully represent Tu Fawning's powerful live show. [...]

This here new mellow tune from Tu Fawning called "Anchor" has been on repeat since it was sent my way earlier today. Something about those soothing lead female vocals with experimental percussion going on the background has just really done something for me. The song appears on the sophomore album from the band, A Monument, due out May 15th on City Slang Records . Hopefully it's soon to get some repeated plays from you readers as well.
