Yes, it's taken us a while to come up with this. We're slow that way, you know? To start this 2011 recap off on a slightly moribund note, the death of Scottish folk singer Bert Jansch (1943-2011) in October rather cast a pall over the past year. Jansch has long been a part of my everyday experiences of listening to music, and the influence of his unhurried acoustic guitar playing can be heard in several other musicians I admire as well (Neil Young and Nick Drake come [...]

Eleanor Friedberger is playing at the Crocodile Thursday night, February 9. If you haven't heard "My Mistakes", the lead single off of her debut solo LP Last Summer , listen to it above, and I'll probably see you on Thursday. You may know the Friedberger name from The Fiery Furnaces , Eleanor's band with her brother Matt. The Fiery Furnaces have received plenty of critical acclaim over their history, but in the last two years, the Furnaces are taking a break so that Matt and Eleanor can work on some solo material. Last Summer [...]

Plugs are assorted, meticulously pined over. Guitars are tuned and twined as the audience hums and murmurs. These are the mechanizations of the music industry, the nightly ritual of a band on tour. On Saturday night, the lights dimmed at San Francisco's The Independent only to return again as Eleanor Friedberger and her band climbed onstage, and with the first strum of Friedberger's turquoise Fender, so began the show. "My Mistakes" featured an exuberant, few minute-long instrumental entry, with each band member whipping their heads and guitar stems back and forth, accented by the cinnamon-colored lights. [...]

Live This Month: February 2012 (Podcast #270) In Live This Month , we sample some of the great local and out-of-town bands performing in the coming month in the San Francisco Bay Area. The twentieth installment of the Noise Pop Music Festival takes over a wide variety of local venues later this month - and we'll be covering many of those shows - but there are also plenty of pre-NP events worth checking out. Locally, two bands are seeing the release of records for which it feels like we've been waiting forever: [...]

Carousing. Lust. Theft. Gambling. Witchcraft? These are the words that apparently describe Eleanor Friedberger's life, according to the Great Montage Reel of Judgment I can only hope we all get to watch when it's our turn to wait outside the pearly gates. Solo for the first time since rising to fame as half of the brother-sister duo Fiery Furnaces, Friedberger gave us "Heaven" as part of last year's Last Summer album. The recent video was directed by Scott Jacobson-a Daily Show writer, of all things. She makes us swoon, he makes us laugh [...]

This Friday (2/3) Eleanor Friedberger is playing live at the Troubadour in Los Angeles and we have a pair of tickets to give away.

Win or lose, I highly recommend coming out Friday and seeing one of the best singer/songwriters we have going right now. Now to contest: In the comment section below tell us why you should win these [...]

A pretty hilarious new music video for a track on the new Eleanor Friedberger album, Last Summer . It's the first time I think I've seen a music video poke fun at Chick tracts , which people usually cast of as silly; however, it's funny to see what Eleanor did with her live in this video actually did land her in hell. Read your tracts!

Damn we love Eleanor Friedberger, we're still spinning her Last Summer album on a regular basis. And now we have something new, a video for the track Heaven .

Time off from being one-half of the Fiery Furnaces (with the other half being her brother Matthew) has been treating Eleanor Friedberger quite well. She's on tour with a backing band featuring Matt Asti (MGMT), Ahmed Gallab (Yeasayer, Caribou) and John Eatherly (Be Your Own Pet, Turbo Fruits), and she'll also personally be joining Carrie Brownstein and Fred Armisen for the next handful of Portlandia Tour dates. (She and the band opened for Wild Flag last year.) Although her debut record "Last Summer" appropriately came out last summer, Friedberger celebrates these upcoming tour dates with a [...]
