Rhode Island ramblin' folk rockers:
Deer Tick began in December of 2004 as a drums and guitar duo. Within a few years the band developed into a quartet featuring two guitars, bass and drums, with three members singing and writing, and one writing string arrangements. They have released countless CD-Rs and two official releases, 2007’s War Elephant (re-released in 2008) and 2009’s Born On Flag Day.
First release off their new album is Miss. K
Here's what main Tick McCauley has to say about the upcoming record:
"Man, you can practically smell the sweat and the beer! Shit, you may even hear a guitar or two break somewhere in there!. It's got a little Exile, it's got a little In Utero, it's got a little Nilsson Schmilsson, but it's 100% Deer-Fucking-Tick in our purest, and most carefree form." 'Divine Providence', is out October 25th via Partisan Records.

Au Revoir!
Au Revoir Simone is an indie pop band from Brooklyn, New York that formed in late 2003. The group consists of Erika Forster (vocals/keyboard), Annie Hart (vocals/keyboard), and Heather D’Angelo (vocals/drum machine/keyboard).
The band name comes from a minor character in Tim Burton’s Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure.
NME said in an article about the band: "Au Revoir Simone must have beamed in from a land where lace clouds breeze over crystal lakes and icicles grow from the warm earth. This New York three-piece's glorious synth-lead alt-folk will leave you crying on the stairs in the middle of the night."[citation needed] The group defined itself as playing "warm and electronic music with forthright female vocalists."
"Powered by vintage keyboards, a lockstep beat-box, and gorgeous, wide-eyed warbling, the Simones create make-out music for your inner android" - Spin
"melody-laden loveliness" - Q Magazine
