We’re back with a new Bolachas Session at Mercado Negro, Aveiro. This time around, we’ll host David Bazan, the gentleman behind the extinct Seattle act Pedro the Lion. In addition to his work as David Bazan (read: Curse Your Branches and Strange Negotiations, both out on Barsuk), he will play plenty of tunes from the essential PTL albums, recently reissued on vinyl. It’s his first time in Portugal. Treat this man like he deserves. Come to the show. Pre-sale tickets cost only €5 (reserve your ticket by sending your info to cakestapes at gmail.com), €6 at the door, next Tuesday, February 26th. Facebook event
Sam Beam, aka Iron and Wine is back with a new album, Ghost on Ghost, out April 16 on Nonesuch/4AD. “Lovers’ Revolution” is the first song taken from it and it’s jazzier than anything he has done before. Can’t say I saw this coming but on first listen it sounds fantastic. Just look at that bass. By the end of the song, I already changed my mind about what my most anticipated album of the year is.

More Blessed Feathers goodness. Just can’t get enough.
Buke and Gase’s new record, General Dome, is out next week on Brassland and NPR is streaming it for our delight. I don’t think there’s a best way to spend your last hour at work today than listening to this. And working at the same time, of course. Make sure you respect your boss. Send her/him this link to preview the whole album and she/he’ll love you forever.
