Nilina Mason-Campbell In their first show since canceling their nationwide tour with Le Loup, the Nurses boys will be performing a rare instore at the NE location of Everyday Music .

It's been a busy last few months for Ben Gibbard . First there was that Jay Farrar collaboration on the Jack Kerouac soundtrack . And, of course, there's the Death Cab for Cutie song on that soundtrack for the shiny vampire movie. Plus, the man got married! Yet despite all this, Mr. Zooey Deschanel has once again made time found time to join an already all-star line-up for a killer new album. And this time it's not just for our entertainment. According to Spinner.com , Gibbard [...]
La route semblera si courte maintenant... Thanks Andrea ! This time next week, Len & I will be en route in a 10' U-Haul from San Diego to San Francisco to embark on our next great adventure.

Et quel jeu de mots ! Ca va sans dire, il s'en passe des choses autour de la planche. De la planche d'accord, mais est-ce ARTISTIQUE ? Et bien quelque peu en effet. La FIAC y était il y a peu, mais c'est maintenant au tour d'un tout autre genre d'art d'entrer au Grand Palais : le skateboard. En effet, si on a eu Prince pour la musique pourquoi pas s'offrir Tony Hawk pour la planche à roulettes. C'est donc le 20 et 21 novembre, que sous notre magnifique verrière parisienne se produira le roi du loupé vrillé [...]

A few weeks ago, Le Loup's second album, Family, came out on Sub Pop's Hardly Art imprint. Considering the band's beginnings as a bedroom project started by Sam Simkoff, the title could accurately be alluding to their evolution as a band. Over the last two years, a modified version of their touring lineup (which formerly featured May [...]
