The Sundelles quite recently finished recording their first full length album. They were working with Mr. Tony Maimone (of Pere Ubu fame) at Studio G in Brooklyn. The band says it’s “totally a step in a new direction, fidelity wise, but its still true to our writing style.” The name of the album is Georgia Swan, and right now there are no definite plans to put the album out as the band is looking for a label to give it a proper release. The sound on the LP is definitely poppier and less fuzzy than their last recording, but I am going to bet that it slays live. We are very glad to post a track from Georgia Swan right now. Listen.

Well, it’s almost time for 2nd Northside Festival, during which The L Magazine takes over the Williamsburg and Greenpoint music venues for a few days.
The Northside Festival will feature over 300 bands this year. Some relatively big names are playing (Liars, The Fiery Furnaces, Fucked Up, Polvo). But what this is really about is the chance to see lots of bands in small venues. It’s an indie music overdose. You can get an idea of what it’s like by listening to this radio stream from the good folks over at radio23.org.
This year the festival starts on Thursday, June 24th and ends on Sunday, June 27th. You can still by badges @ Brown Paper Tickets.
AND… there’s more than music happening on the 24th-27th. There is also Arts & Film happenings (if you’re into that sort of thing).
What I would like to do now is highlight a few of the showcases that I am planning on checking out. I have mp3 previews for just about all the bands playing the highlighted showcases. If you have an mp3 for one of the bands listed with no preview, please send it to me and I will post it. And, remember this is just a small sample of the events planned for the 24th through the 27th, be sure to check out the full schedule… here.
