Featuring these two pictures, one of Death and one of our friends Rough Francis.

Nice work, you guys!!!!  Here’s the LINK.

Less than a week until the show that Tick Tick is very eager to see:

SISTER SUVI, SHAPES AND SIZES, NAT BALDWIN, and RYAN POWER, at the 5th Element!  It’s on Thursday, the 12th!

Getting awfully excited to see Sister Suvi.

Featuring Merrill Garbus (aka TUNE-YARDS, who I posted about being really impressed by last fall), Patrick Gregoire of Islands, and a third dude whom I don’t know, but am sure is awesome, too!

You can read a little about them on Said the Gramophone, the verbose Canadian music blog.

And you can listen to their new EP here on their website.  May I recommend that you listen to “New Orange Bike.”  You can buy the EP there via paypal, as well.

They are just on a little mini-tour with Shapes and Sizes, basically to here and Portland, Maine, before they tour down to SXSW in mid-March with Takka Takka.

Sister Suvi

Very flatteringly, one of the songs off of Colin Clary’s new EP on London’s WeePOP label, is called “Tick Tick”!  Rumor has it that it’s even about Tick Tick!

Thanks Colin!!!!

Go buy it here! Only 3 quid!

It’s called Every Little Thing Counts.  Too true, Colin, too true.
