After a short break, Sonny & The Sunsets are back on tour. They will be joining another excellent retro-cali-sunshiney pop outfit for the majority of their shows, Best Coast! Meanwhile Empty Cellar is still anxiously waiting on Sonny’s latest release – a 4 song 7″ E.P. featuring harmonies from the Sandwitches – from the pressing plant.

Tomorrow night is the Night! Tim Cohen doesn’t perform his solo material too often, so shooby-doobie down to the Make-Out room tonight where the vibe is great and get a taste of his new band, Tim Cohen’s Magic Trick! They will be playing in the San Francisco Bay Guardian’s monthly Penny Arcade Showcase with some hot bay area compatriots. All the details are on the flier below.
Will Oldham and Emmett Kelly (Bonnie “Prince” Billy & The Cairo Gang) have been touring The Wonder Show of the World (Drag City) for many months now, and it has taken many forms. Here they are performing “Troublesome Houses”, Live at Store Vega Copenhagen 05.25.2010 with Nori Tanaka on drums:
…and here they are performing “The Sounds Are Always Begging” in Whelans, Dublin. 07.29.2010 with The Trembling Bells:
This weekend (Friday and Saturday) they will be playing shows on opposite sides of the San Francisco bay in their latest incarnation. Both shows will feature bassist Danny Kiely, drummer Van Campbell, keyboardist Ben Boye, and backing vocalist Angel Olsen.
(((folkYEAH!))) presents Tomorrow’s SOLD OUT event in Sausalito. The venue looks like this… hot dawg!
If you weren’t able to procure a ticket for that performance, then you can still catch them (and about 100 of your musical heros) for FREE on Saturday at the 10th annual Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival. They close out the Star Stage at 4:40 PM.
San Francisco artist Shaun O’Dell painted the monad-aperture that was reproduced for the Endless Nest logo. Thank you Shaun. Here we are transporting the piece between his house and ours.
He is also one of the three eminent forces on, and album artist for, the Sword & Sandals debut LP, Good & Plenty.
Tomorrow, Thursday 10/30, he will be celebrating the arrival of his new artbook. This book is the culminating project of his Tournesol residency. O’Dell is 7th artist to receive the prestigious award, which provides a Bay Area painter with a year-long residency at Headlands. You can preview the book and read an excerpt from Shaun’s interview with curator Tara McDowell HERE. The book (initial press limited to 1000 copies) will be available for purchase at the event and will also be available at the Park Life Store.
Shaun will be performing at the event with Randy Sutherland (also from Sword + Sandals) in their two-piece WR/DS.
Finally… we thought we would attach last week’s San Francisco Bay Guardian interview/feature on Shaun O’Dell, Sword + Sandals and WR/DS: Horns of plenty
