Lena LovelandThe biggest news for this week is that Trotsky Icepick has a new single. Actually, the tune is already a bit old, but it popped up for me only recently. The Lemon Twigs now have their new album out. Chris Butler and Ralph Carney recorded an album about odd holidays, shortly prior to Carney’s death. We also check out the new one from the Austin’s White Denim, Lena Loveland from Berlin and Codgers from Detroit. James and The Ultrasounds come from Memphis TN. And we also do a little tribute to Aretha Franklin.

Jillian Raye of Giants In The TreesWe have a lot of new music from our heroes today. Matthew Sweet has a new album and so does Holly Golightly with her Brokeoffs. Krist Novoselic returned as a bass player and accordionist of a new band called Giants In The Trees. Jillian Raye, however, is the front woman of the band. We also introduce Chris Price from LA. Also from LA, we have Groovy Movies. Shirley Davis from Madrid, Spain and Bottle Kids from Chicago, IL are also here for the first time. We also pay respect to Ralph Carney, instrumentalist from Akron OH, who passed away back in December. We know him well from his work with Tom Waits on Rain Dogs.
