The album is described as “soulful” and “RnB”, which is not the typical Scissor Sister’s music style. If you can’t wait to hear the album, check out the sampler at Souncloud |

TEENAGE KICKS
Their name, Teenage Kicks, makes me think of the wonderful Undertones. Their new song is called “Middle of the Night”, which you can download here. Their website doesn’t exactly list where they are from, but if I were to hazard a guess, I’d say they’re from Canada, as their last gig was in Hamilton. Anyway, their most recent EP, Be On My Side, is out now. You can catch the band if you’re heading to SXSW this year at |
NIGHT CLUB
L.A.’s “sinful synth-pop band” Night Club premiere a racy new video for “Control” via Buzzbands.LA. Night Club is the brainchild of DJ/Producer Mark Brooks, former guitarist Warlock Pinchers and vocalist Emily Kavanaugh. Their 5-tract debut EP will be out on March 19th via Gato Blanco Music, catch them on tour: 03/22 San Francisco, CA @ DNA Lounge 04/13 San Diego, CA @ Anime Conji 2013 |
