Awful excited for "Band of the Month" contender The Big Sleep at the Mercury Lounge tonight. The intesity of the studio work is enough to get anyone pumped. It is a record release party in support of Sleep Forever. You can read a review of it by Nick Greto over at kevchino.
I imagine tonight will look and sound something like this:

Who Doesn't Miss Soul Coughing? Mike Doughty - Golden Delicious
Soul Coughing was one of the greatest bands to make their way out of the messy '90's alt rock radio scene. Mike Doughty was their singer with the ultra cool voice and even sweeter delivery. He has a new album that dropped just yesterday. It is streaming in it's entirety over at Spinner. His last record Haughty Melodic was a solid one. The new one, Golden Delicious, seems a little more poppy and maybe a little more jazzy too. He is trekking the North America as well. Check out his new video below.

Guillemots on Jonathon Ross, Looking for Female Singer
A little something to go along with the Guillemots news we posted last month. How about a new song called "Get Over It" from their forthcoming Red LP? And they are looking for a female singer to tour with them? Pretty exciting. This was on Jonathon Ross this past Friday night:
And this from their myspace blog:
And this from their myspace blog:
we is looking for a girl singer ??
The main thing is just finding someone with a really distinctive, uninhibited voice who could add some harmonies / noises to some of our songs, and obviously, someone who is also able to be on tour a lot of this year.
So. . .if anyone out there thinks they might fit into the strange little sung-glove world of Guillemots, send an email to
mail@lunchtm.co.uk
with whatever you want to tell us about yourself and some link to listen or download some examples of your voice or voices...
