Tegan and Sara launch new album with free LA show Tegan and Sara launched their new record with a free show at Amoeba Records in Los Angeles yesterday (July 24). Hundreds of fans showed up, many of whom were turned away after the store reached capacity. The twin sisters performed tracks from their new album, 'The Con', which was released Stateside yesterday. They played the album's title track as well as 'Nineteen' and 'Burn Your Life Down'. They also played several older songs including 'Monday Monday Monday', 'Living Room' and 'Walking With A Ghost'. "Thank you so much for coming down...this is by far the best release day we've ever had," Tegan told the adoring crowd. "We love you Tegan! " an enthusiastic fan shouted back. Hunter Burgan from AFI, who plays bass on the new album, made an appearance on the shaker at the mostly acoustic show. At the end of their 55-minute set, the sisters announced that they wouldn't leave the store until they met everyone who wanted to meet them. They spent the next three hours meeting their fans and signing autographs. |
White Rabbits head back to studio White Rabbits are currently in a New York studio recording some brand new tracks. The Brooklyn-band have been receiving much critical acclaim for their debut album 'Fort Nightly' which was released earlier this summer, and will support the release with tour supports with The Cribs, Kaiser Chiefs and Tokyo Police Club. "We have two new songs that we're recording that we've been playing" singer Greg Roberts tells NME.COM "We're really excited about them. One is called 'Cotillion Blues' and the other one has yet to be named. It sounds like a New Orleans band or something. Our friend (Jon Natchez) who plays in the band Beirut came in and played some horns on it. The other one is our newest song and we're really excited about it. And we're doing a Randy Newman cover 'Beehive State'". Despite the band's recent success, Roberts believes it's happening at a somewhat manageable pace. "The reception over all has been it hasn't been out of control which is kind of good" he says "I feel like we're doing things the right way. It feels more like a genuine response than a sensationalised kind of hype. It's always more rewarding for a band to feel like you're earning your keep rather than just becoming overnight stars, I don't think any of us would be comfortable doing that.If we ever do achieve any kind of acclaim of that level I'll feel like we went about it the right way. We will see if that happens some day." |
