It was just about a month ago that we featured “Ryan’s Song”, a track from Venice Is Sinking‘s upcoming release, AZAR on the new song daily podcast. Well, there is still another month before the album will come out on One Percent Press, but the good news is that you can now enjoy “Ryan’s Song” with accompanying video which was just premiered over at Stereogum.

There are also a few opportunities to check the band out live – two at SXSW – which are covered below.

Laura Gibson‘s Beasts of Seasons was just released this past Tuesday on Hush Records and NPR, who has called the album, “nothing short of a masterpiece,” is streaming the entire album on their site.

Currently on the first leg of a tour that will have her on the road through the end of April, Gibson will be celebrating the release of Beasts of Seasons with a CD release show in Portland, OR on April 2nd before heading back on a second leg with Damien Jurado.
