It's A Major Minor Detail

Sondre LercheBillboard speaks with Feist about touring, as well as her new album which she plans to begin recording after her current round of touring. If you're still on a high after seeing Feist perform "Mushaboom" on Jimmy Kimmel Live, you can download a high-quality mpeg rip of the clip over at PureLiveGigs.[via Largehearted Boy]

The Fader Blog has reprinted their Cat Power cover story which they featured in Issue #34 of the magazine.

Torr points to Sondre Lerche's new music video. Mr. Lerche always had a penchant for easy-listening pop music, but this new song sounds too smooth.

Eye Weekly has a small photo collage from last week's January 21st Broken Social Scene concert at Kool Haus.

Final Fantasy, Gentleman Reg and The Two Koreas will be at Lee's Palace for a show on February 15th. Tickets $10 at Soundscapes and Rotate This.

The Canadian Music Week festival schedule is still being finalized but here are some lineups which I believe are part of the festival:

  • March 2 Republic Of Safety, Gentleman Reg, Paper Moon, Femme Generation, Vailhalen and Shoot The Moon @ Reverb [via chartattack]

  • March 3 Luke Doucet, Justin Rutledge, Great Lake Swimmers, Belinda Bruce and United Steelworkers Of Montreal @ Reverb [via chartattack]

  • March 4th The Diableros, Jon-Rae & The River and Wintersleep - Chart CMW Showcase @ Horseshoe Tavern [via The Diableros' website]


  • Download some mp3's from plus/minus' recently released new album "Let's Build A Fire", released in Japan through White Wabbit Records. As Versus UK fansite points out, a US release date is unknown but is thought to be soon. I'd have included the link to the mp3's in my recent Versus-centric blog post, but the link hadn't been working at the time. Well now it is. Enjoy the mp3's. Also, I recently received in the mail a copy of the new Whysall Lane album, which isn't actually officially out until next month. Yay!

    The New Pornographers will have an exclusive video interview with ManiaTV this afternoon at 3 pm EST. [via Live Net Music]
