Julie Peel Touring

June 2009, by Benjamin Wahiche

American Laundromat Records indie-folk artist Julie Peel left on tour beginning on October 1st. She has European and US dates throughout autumn. This will be Julie’s second tour in support of her critically-acclaimed debut album “Near The Sun.” The album has earned Julie rave reviews, an early invitation to showcase at SXSW, placements in television shows such as NBC’s Mercy and CBS’s Life Unexpected, and opening support invites from artists such as Joe Purdy, Tanya Donelly, and Dar Williams.

Julie Peel is a French born, self-taught multi-instrumentalist that writes smart well-crafted folk rock with a pop sensibility reminiscent of Aimee Mann, Neil Young, Cat Power, Beth Orton, and Feist. During the tour Julie will be performing songs from Near The Sun, and introducing several new songs from her upcoming album.

Mates of State & M.T. Bearington tour

Local bands Mates of State and M.T. Bearington are going on a short and sweet New England tour together. If you haven't seen either of these bands live, now's your chance to catch them.

Mates of State are a super cute husband-and-wife indie pop duo originally from San Francisco and now settled in the New Haven area. They're basically the epitome of the indie pop duo; I'm sure you know who they are. An added bonus: according to their twitter, they're in the process of recording their new album of covers, so expect that real soon.

M.T. Bearington is a fun combination of freak-folk songwriting with psychedelic pop instrumentation. It's a fairly new project started by Matt Thomas, who's fronted tons of bands in the past. The band is really starting to pick up steam, and he's released a great album called The Cloak of Nouns and Loss which we reviewed a while ago right here.

This is a really killer lineup, both bands are excellent. They're playing some fantastic venues all over New England:

2/17 - Burlington, VT @ Higher Ground
2/18 - Portland, ME @ Port City Music Hall
2/19 - Northampton, MA @ Iron Horse
2/20 - Hamden, CT @ The Space
2/21 - Brooklyn, NY @ The Bell House

Tickets for The Space are on sale today, so buy them ASAP.
