Camille Delean – Music on the Grey Mile
Singer-songwriter Camille Delean has lived in many different places, having grown up in small-town Ontario before embarking on a journey at age 17 that led to stints in Nashville, Paris and London, then returning to live in her current homebase of Montreal. It’s not surprising, then, that her debut album is inspired by her nomadic life.(CBC)

Kacy & Clayton – The Siren’s Song
The Siren’s Song developed out of Kacy Anderson and Clayton Linthicum’s touring as a four-piece band alongside a drummer and a bassist, which alleviated some of the restrictions that come with being a quiet duo. Linthicum turned up his electric guitar while Anderson, not as concerned with venue set-up or a noisy crowd, felt more liberated. The pair started to have more fun, and it shows.(Exclaim!)
Lunar Lemur – Gas Sculptures
In a park somewhere, dressed in a lemur suit, wearing headphones and wielding a lap-top, sits what may or may not be the main man responsible for Lunar Lemur. At least, this is the way things are depicted by the digital label and comics (!) website Trinket Trance. With several digital albums in his previous discography, including Meat Blob Groove Machine and debut The Indiscreet Art of Ass Puppetry, Gas Sculptures is Lunar Lemur’s latest offering.(Archaic Triad)
Twin Bandit – Full Circle
While working on their second full length album Full Circle, Twin Bandit grew personally and creatively. Throughout that experience, the Vancouver duo, comprised of Hannah Walker and Jamie Elliot progressed as songwriters and musicians, expanding their sonic palette of folk, alternative, and country and opening up lyrically. Today, the band is sharing the album’s new single “Gotta Make Sure”, which is now available to stream. (Northern Transmissions)
Good morning!
hello
Hello
Thanks for the new music.
Hello hello! Does anyone know if the Kacy and Clayton album is the one produced by Jeff Tweedy?
@Janet, According to their Bandcamp page it would appear to be yes.

Thanks, Garfield!
G’day!
Is anyone looking forward to the eclipse?
The eclipse isn’t going to be much here (what’s left of the sun, maybe 35%, is plenty bright enough), and I’m not going to the US.
Remember: an absolutely safe way to see where things are at is to make a pinhole camera (a pinhole in a sheet of preferably dark, thickish paper). Held over any flat surface, it’ll show the crescent of the sun in reverse.
I’m pretty excited. We won’t get the full eclipse, maybe about 80%, but enough that I’m going to head outside to take a look. I’ll have to make a pinhole camera though, I didn’t think about ordering those fancy glasses thingies in nearly enough time.
Yeah, janet, one does need real dark glasses made especially for looking at the sun — or the darkest welding glasses, they’re good, apparently. Know any welders?
You know, I don’t know any welders. Pinhole camera for me! Though with my luck it will be cloudy!
Right now, most of the path of totality is pretty clear.
“Path of Totality”: band name for one that plays incomprehensible, upscale kind of stuff.
Off cycling! Later!
There was a total eclipse that passed over the south coast of England many years ago and I noticed it got cooler and a little darker in my village
I’m looking up dates

That video is cool. I like that the crowd is cheering.
The English lead boring lives and they were even worse in 1999
garf: c’mon. Americans are going to behave much in the same way. Cheers and booyas…
Hi all! This Kacy & Clayton album is indeed an album produced by Jeff Tweedy. He seems to like our Sask talent. You can read more and stream the whole album on AllMusic. http://www.allmusic.com/blog/post/album-premiere-kacy-clayton-the-sirens-song
And, I’d be willing to be a little “the end of the world is coming” panic, some racial discord, climate change denial, and probably someone trying to turn it into a political statement.
I mean the Americans and the eclipse, not the Kacy and Clayton album 🙂
I remember the total eclipse thing being a very big deal when it happened in my youth. I hope people have the proper glasses.
I am pretty sure the end of the world is happening soon but I am going to hope for the best. :p
Bend Sinister is releasing an album tomorrow as well!
@DBS, I had that but it appears to only be a single
Oh right. There will be an EP in September.

I’m headed out for the day, but I look forward to chatting with you tomorrow!
Ciao!
