Artist: Yo La Tengo

We've been counting down the days until this year's Newport Folk Festival , since the lineup was announced back in the beginning of March. With the fest essentially extending to three days this year, thanks in part to Wilco's Friday night show, and music ending on the early side for music festival standards, it's no surprise that there have been a handful of "late-night" options announced for those headed Newport. Much like they did last year, local heroes Deer Tick will again take up residency at the Newport Blues Cafe , [...]

With the first annual Great GoogaMooga just a week and a half or so away, fest organizers have revealed the daily schedule of music, comedy and food and beverage-centric panels that will take place over the course of the two days. Of particular note on Saturday is comedian Marc Maron hosting a WTF Podcast, Noshing With... Ruth Reichl, David Chang, Aziz Ansari and James Murphy, and Beer vs Wine with Garret Oliver and Alan Benton. While we've got the New Orleans Brass Brunch with the Dirty Dozen Brass Band, Liquid Brunch: The Art of Daytime Drinking [...]

Third/Sister Lovers es uno de los álbumes más populares de la banda norteamericana Big Star . Lanzado en 1978 con muchas dificultades de por medio, ha sido un disco esencial y de gran influencia para una cantidad enorme de bandas y artistas. Es a raíz de esta relevancia musical, que varios artistas se reunirán para recrear en vivo Third/Sister Lovers . El próximo 28 de mayo en el Barbican Hall de Londres, Jody Stephens (integrante original de Big Star) junto con Mike Mills (R.E.M.), Alex Taylor (Hot Chip), Ira Kaplan (Yo La Tengo), [...]

Arguably one of the best albums of the 70's, Big Star 's Third/Sister Lovers is set for a revival at The Barbican, London on May 28th. Joining Jody Stephens , the only surviving Big Star member, will be Sharron Van Etten , Robyn Hitchcock , Mike Mills (R.E.M.), Ira Kaplan (Yo La Tengo) and Norman Blake (Teenage Fanclub) to perform the entirety of the seminal album.

On Saturday night, a rush line formed at the Toronto Underground Cinema for those not lucky to be among the seven hundred or so ticket holders for the night's sold out screening of The Sounds of Science, a night of classic 35mm science films. Though unlikely under normal circumstances, this was the closing night of the Images Festival , Toronto's experimental film festival celebrating its 25th year, and none other than Yo La Tengo was to be in attendance providing the live score to Jean Painlevé's quirky undersea films. As [...]

I'm sure I'm not alone in saying that last night I was anxiously watching Twitter for teasers and refreshing Hopscotch's homepage until midnight, when Hopscotch 20122s lineup was released. I read out loud the 175 bands to my roommates with the occasional (and frequent) yelps of joy. Headliners this year include The Roots, The Jesus and Mary Chain, Built to Spill (one of my personal favorite bands), Yo La Tengo, Liars, Sunn O))), and Zola Jesus. Some others that I'm excited about are Thee Oh Sees, Wye Oak, Deerhoof, The Mountain Goats, Versus, Exitmusix, Ducktails, Samantha [...]

On Friday night following a screening of the documentary Hit So Hard: The Life & Near Death Story of Patty Schemel in Public Assembly on N. 6th St., all four members of Hole's classic lineup performed together, unannounced, for the first time since '99. They played two songs: Live Through This 's "Miss World" and the Ask For It EP's Wipers cover "Over The Edge." Gothamist says all of this could have been yours for a cool $10. Given the timing in relation to this week's Twit-tirade about Dave Grohl and [...]

Frank Yang It's kind of funny to hear M. Ward introduce this song to his audience as being "by another American band called Yo La Tengo ", at least in the context of it being 2012. After all, these days Ward is a reasonably big name - thanks as much to his work with She & Him and Monsters Of Folk as his solo work - and Yo La Tengo are generally regarded as indie rock royalty. Rewind to 2001 and while Yo La Tengo were still pre-eminent [...]
