The band, who have become known for their raucous live show, kicks off their North American tour on Saturday, February 21 in San Francisco.  The live set will include classic Kinky hits like “Mas” and “Presidente,” as well as songs from Barracuda, like early favorites “Those Girls” and “Hasta Quemarnos.”  In an early review of the Barracuda, Billboard said: “Kinky hits the sweet spot here on this polished electronic pop set. The group combines its unfailingly catchy hooks with nods to '80s British new wave and geeky electronica riffs.”

ANGUS AND JULIA STONE CONFIRMED FOR SXSW’S OFFICIAL KCRW'S SHOWCASE

"[A Book Like This] flickers with the prospects of two talented musicians who work together wonderfully...the two maintain individual identities despite the close collaboration, and as much as one voice differs from the other -- hers, a worthy and eccentric amalgamation of Newsom and Bjork, and his, a lasting crisp and clear spark -- in the moments they meld together, it's easy to forget everything you know about sibling rivalry." – Filter Magazine

Aussie brother/sister duo ANGUS AND JULIA STONE will make their SXSW debut next month as part KCRW’s Official Showcase on Wednesday, March 18; other bands on the bill includeIda Maria, School of Seven Bells and Port O’Brien. The Platinum selling pair will also appear on KCRW’s Morning Becomes Eclectic on Monday, March 9in celebration of their North American debut album A BOOK LIKE THIS, outMarch 3. 

Paste Magazine recently included Angus and Julia in their “10 New Artists To Watch in 2009” round-up, saying, “[Angus and Julia Stone] make a compelling pair...Together, they've crafted A Book Like This, an album of delicately constructed folk songs, some lushly orchestrated (the absolutely gorgeous ‘Silver Coin’), others with twinges of jazz (on ‘Private Lawns’)." 

The duo has also become known for their intimate, charming and bewitching live show, selling out headline dates from Australia to London. Upon the their first visit to the States at the end of 2008, they sold out shows in New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco and San Diego—their first set of dates ever in the US. They will do an 18-city west coast tour with Brett Dennen starting on Thursday, March 12 in Vancouver and ending on Saturday, April 4 in Salt Lake City.  They will then head to the Midwest and east coast for their own headline tour (tour dates to be announced shortly).

     Word Magazine:
     “Joan is Carole King in a little black dress, Burt Bacharach with balls and Lou Reed without the mean streak, all rolled into one."
    
     Paste Magazine- Editors Pick
     On To Survive, her second release under the moniker Joan As Police Woman, she casts the same torchy, seductive, chamber-pop spell that made her debut "Real Life" such a pleasure, only doing it even more effectively this time.
    
     Under The Radar:
     Despite a few lapses into the conventional, Wasser has crafted the deepest and most profound album of her career.
    
     PopMatters:
     “Joan As Police Woman are in this for the long haul.”
    
     Spin:
     “For her second album, she flexes more ambition, and the results are rewarding”
    
     Drowned In Sound:
     “'To America’ comes across very much a modern take on West Side Story replete with fine vocal performances from its central pair, sweeping strings and ebullient brass, it’s a jubilant finale”
    
     Uncut:
     “Voice and piano are to the fore, but Wasser's orchestrations pulse and ebb like living things.”
    
     Q Magazine:
     “To Survive, however, ignites enough fireworks of its own”
    
     NY Daily News:
     “The singer shows her secret strength in the risks she took in her performance, and in the reach of her compositions. She shares those qualities with Antony, Newsome and Buckley. All of them hold nothing back when they perform. But when Wasser lets go, she does so with a sound all her own.”
    
     NY Times:
     "Joan as Police Woman, creates dizzying, jazz-steeped rock music."
    
     Blackbook:
     Even if you haven’t heard Joan As Police Woman” Wasser, chances are you have listened to records she’s appeared on. On her spare second solo album, her many former colleagues and influences are present, particularly Antony and the Johnsons. But this is her record and it is Wasser’s lone, tender voice that cossets tracks such as the wrenching title song, “To Be Loved,” and its emotional doppelganger, “To Be Lonely.” Recalling the more rueful sides of Feist, Roberta Flack, and a smidgen of Cat Power, To Survive is not an album for the noonday sun. But, oh, night never felt so sweet.
    
     Venus:
     “Loaded with guitar, violin and keyboard infused torch songs that channel Heart’s Dreamboat Annie one moment and Nina Simone the next."

JOSH FREESE: SINCE 1972, SOLO ALBUM TO BE RELEASED IN ELEVEN CONFIGURATIONS PRICED FROM $7 TO $75,000 PHYSICAL RELEASE APRIL 14

Sleepy Sun To Release Debut LP "Embrace" Out May 26th On ATP/R

Play Hometown Noise Pop Festival Bottom Of The Hill Wednesday Feb. 25th. 

US Spring Tour To Come

“San Francisco's Sleepy Sun is one of those every-so-often bands that absorbs, processes, and spits out its influences in such a way as to make pee run down the pants legs of music reviewers everywhere…They are designed to explode the most expanded of frontal lobes...”  -SF Weekly 

“...Comfortable, a high drenched in fog, floating inland on ocean wind. Compositionally, things feel natural and free. Each instrument as integral as the rest. Breathing, moving…” -Aquarius Records 

“Sleepy Sun’s songs, mellifluously flowing between bittersweet balladry and paranoid, hazy atmospherics, are like a 2am car ride — not going somewhere, not coming back, but taking an unexpected detour through uncertain terrain. A sublime fog, the mood is both assured and undefined, leaving me to drift, to slither, through a spectrum that ranges from the nostalgic to the anxious, from the freewheeling to the claustrophobic….” -Naturalismo 

"...This collective of young longbeards has become one of the town's most beloved bands in a very short period of time, laying down lumbering servings of heavy psychedelic freakadelia and dusted Northern Californian psych-folk. Williams' angelic voice weaves in-between a sublimely mind-rattling cacophony reminiscent of Santa Cruz psych-rock alumni Comets on Fire at their headiest...If rapturous local buzz is any indication, Sleepy Sun might be the best bet of the next Santa Cruz band to break big..." -Metro Santa Cruz 

Sleepy Sun have an honest, high-energy show that ranges from hard, early Sabbath-level rock to a genuine gospel/spiritual vibe, all making Sleepy Sun a really tough act to follow. Their discipline, dynamics, dominance over tempo (the subtlest and most commonly overlooked musical device), and brooding nature evokes comparisons as disparate as Black Sabbath, George Harrison's "All Things Must Pass", Pink Floyd and Bjork . . . and we still haven’t heard the record. -The Deli Magazine SF 

11 Things You Need To Know... Tell us about the origins of the band – how you met, how you found your sound etc.:    This band was conceived under a full moon in the lovely town of Santa Cruz, California.  With the forest and ocean as our back drop, we were drawn to each other as fellow musicians, friends, and lovers.  Our sound began with a more straight laced rock n roll feel but soon took on more depth and heaviness, drawing from early Black Sabbath,  Creedence Clearwater Revival, Can, and Creation Records, to more contemporary local acts like Comets on Fire and Mammatus. There was a lot of jamming - a lot of free flowing, heady, "where am I?" - type jamming that definitely contributed  to our sonic ascension.   Your biog says you're from the "occult influenced creative community of Santa Cruz" – please elaborate! Are you into the occult as a band? And how big is occultism in Santa Cruz?!   Santa Cruz is a community very much submersed into it's own culture-- although it's veneer may convey a sense of murky, burned-out-hippy life, there's a sparkling bubble kingdom if you know where to narrow your vision. Beaches are covered in Monarch butterflies for a few weeks every year, naked dancing to drums in the moonlight, rogue black metal shows under the cover of night and redwood elders, and dank caves that eventually meet the salty ocean water. It becomes very easy to 'lose your head in the clouds' so to speak in such a geographically rich territory. Sometimes all you want to do is paint your face with charcoal, red, and black, cruise the graveyard, scope some blasters, and check out with some durk pins. The Occult is what you make it.   And then you moved to San Fran. What made you decide to move there?  Whats the current day scene like there? We all love Santa Cruz. We really do. But if we didn't make the move out of there, things could have easily become stagnant. There's a circuit of about four to five venues in Santa Cruz that you can play before it's all tapped out, and two of which are all ages. On top of that, more than half of 21+ crowd leaves for summer vacation from University, so it's difficult to build up a following in sleepy Santa Cruz Co. San Francisco on the other hand is a city, and we hit the ground rolling and have been shoveling coal in the engine ever since. As per the SF 'scene', it's really all across the board-- hair metal, punk, indie, electronica, etc. are all coexisting across the peninsula. They're all alive in their own little niche bars, and you can start to see cross-over which is where the electricity sparks.   There's a psych-rock influence on your sound. Is the psych rock sound still alive and well in the Bay Area?   There is not a 'psych rock' scene per se-- '67 is long gone, and Haight St. is nothing more than a tourist trap banking on the name and history of the area to sell Mukluks and Dead shirts (p.s. the Dead totally rules).  We feel psychedelic influence on our music comes more from Northern California itself more than any scene or city.  There truly is nowhere on Earth like our little corner of the country where the redwoods smother the ocean... Your 'battle cry' is "Let's get weird". When and where do you use this phrase, and where did it come from?    This is the phrase to use when you and your friends are bored with ordinary, humdrum folly-making. If someone drops this line, where ever you may be, the entire group must participate in an activity created on the spot, regardless of social norms or rules. If this means 'diming' a record entitled "German Beer-Drinking Music", wrapping a poor soul in toilet paper and plastic bags, fogging out the living room and reinacting American Gladiators with socks and pillows, then so be it. What are your shared interests, both musical and otherwise? Pizza, horticulture, Neil Percival Young.   What have been the big milestones in your career to date? There's nothing like having your first piece of vinyl pressed. Also, playing pretty much any show put on by Folk Yeah! Productions. Opening for Rodriguez at the Great American Hall in our hometown the day we got back from tour was a dream, and Folk Yeah!'s Festival in the Forest in Big Sur was an unforgettable moment for all of us.  That festival was as close as it gets to the communal musical vibe everyone assumes is going on in the Bay Area.   Where and when did you record the album? Sleepy Sun traveled to Vancouver, BC in January 2008 to record 'Embrace' with Colin Stewart. We tracked for 11 days, took off four days to rest on the island of Victoria, and then hopped back on the ferry to the Hive to mix for another four days. What was the aim for the album? What were you hoping to achieve? Before travelling to BC to record, much time was spent brainstorming about how to compile the songs in a way that would set a singular vibe or tone or message. In other words, we aimed to record a cohesive collection of songs, inspired by full length albums intended to be listened to from start to finish. We didn't however go into the studio claiming outright that we were going to create a "psych-roch record", i guess that came naturally. In the studio, There was a conscious decision to change the songs, allowing them to bloom into sonic bulbs, radically different than we had been playing them live for the past year. I suppose you could say we sought to frame these songs in their new light-- we've certainly changed the way we play them live since the birth of 'Embrace'. Talk us through some of the key tracks (the inspiration / any fun stories behind them etcm unusual recording tecniques), especially future singles. Electical-engineer Brian Tice recorded 9/10ths of the instruments on 'Golden Artifact' using an 8-track mixer in our living room in Santa Cruz (also known as the Dungeon, because of it's low ceilings, low lighting, and various smells attributed to a plethora of cats, sugar gliders and human rodents). All of the band lived in house during this period, and we sat down and hashed out the entire song in a few sittings. We setup the mixer, the mics were held together with tape and cobra-whiskey bottles, and hit 'record'. Our good friend Norman Krow mixed the original version to be placed on a compilation for the inaugural Loves in Heat Records festival. We brought along the data to Vancouver, BC and Colin Stewart worked his magic, and we re-tracked vocals and darker percussion. After watching all the Hellraiser and all Jim Henson films in one sitting, Matt wrote the guitar verse for 'New Age' . Bret was currently studying in Europe, so the song (tentatively titled Cromag) bloomed into 15 minute epic sans vocals, compensated with shredding keys and hot air balloons. Once Bret returned from his overseas voyage, we started working on the track as a full band. It went through countless changes, but never sounded complete until a year and half of sitting on the back-burner (although occasional live performances existed for our own curiosity). This was the first song we attempted to record at the Hive Studios in Jan. 08' and we ended up ripping out half of the heavy, plodding guitar tracks and replaced with sparkling acoustics. What are your hopes for the future of the band?  To do Wayne's World for a living.

The Asteroids Galaxy Tour Flying Into The US!

Hitting SXSW, both coasts and Chicago for their new album, FRUIT (Small Giants, May 18)


The Asteroids Galaxy Tour return to the states this March! They already got New York dancing up a storm when they came to visit last year, this time they're hitting SXSW, followed by dates in Chicago and California.

One 3-Song EP and 3 NYC Shows Lit Up the Media Skyline; Debut Full-Length, FRUIT, Coming May 18th! Don’t Miss TAGT When They Return to America!

Formed less than a year ago, The Asteroids Galaxy Tour is moving at the speed of light. The band, led by Lars Iversen and Mette Lindberg, created quite a buzz when they came to New York City this past November, heralded (and hosted) by Spin and GBH.TV as one of the hottest new bands from across the pond – thanks to their attention-grabbing 4-track digital EP (3 songs + a remix), Around the Bend.

Music lovers responded loudly: The band has been embraced by Rolling Stone, Anthem, NYLON, GOOD, AOL and Yahoo! Music, while RCRDLBL premiered an exclusive MP3. Whitney Matheson included "Around the Bend" in her “POP CANDY” podcast for USA TODAY, and URB will feature TAGT in an upcoming issue. MTVu featured “The Sun Ain’t Shining No More” video in the “Freshman Five” in early December, and the producers of “Gossip Girl” loved the band so much, they used three (!) of the band’s songs in their December 1 episode. Oh, and did we mention that TAGT’s song “Around the Bend” was hand-picked by Steve Jobs for use in the most recent iPod Touch commercial?

Their debut full-length, Fruit (April 21) swerves left and right with one surprise after another. Each song is a carefully crafted pop gem, guaranteed to get you moving. "Passport Approved", a syndicated tastemaker weekly radio show showed their love for "The Golden Age", the sixth track on the album, while AM New York says it is, “A blast of vintage soul from Copenhagen...a verifiable sensation.” TAGT will bring their 6-piece party back to the U.S. in March with the dates below:

Thursday, March 19 - SXSW, Austin, TX @ Windish Shocase at Emo's Outdoors

Saturday, March 21 - SXSW, Austin, TX @ Chop Shop Showcase

Sunday, March 22 - New York, NY @ Le Poisson Rouge (LPR)

Tuesday, March 24 - Toronto, ONT @ Wrong Bar

Wednesday, March 25 - Chicago, IL @ Schubas
