This Evening: There’s A Kind Of Hush All Over The World
>>> As part of the fifth estate, we here at Philebrity enjoy privileges not bestowed upon commoners. Among them? Getting to, every once in a while, touch the head and hair of Meg Baird, who is but one half of The Baird Sisters. The other half is Laura, and we’d lay good money that if you tried this on either of them, they’d pop you silly. But fear not. Simply listening to their music is every bit as centering:
The Baird Sisters: “Lonely Town” [mp3]
The Baird Sisters: “Snow” [mp3]
They play tonight at Starlight Ballroom. That new Silver Jews album is totally ass, but you should do it anyway. They hardly ever play and that sisterly harmony is seriously about as good as it gets.
>>> Ray Davies at the Tower! Damn.
>>> And, for all your bro-down needs, The Melange returns to The 700 Club.
