This is my 'pick of the week' show.

The Canon Logic are playing at Southpaw on Thursday night with Ann Courtney & the Late Bloomers. The Canon Logic are fantastic live band and the crowds seem to grow in size each time that I've seen them play.

The Canon Logic are finalizing their debut full-length CD Dark Maid and the band will be playing tracks from this forthcoming release at the Southpaw show. For anyone who needs an early 'fix', the band posted their recent EP "The White Balloon" along with a handful of unreleased tracks as a free download.


Here is a live performance of "Avenue of Criminals" when the band was competing on MTV2's Rock Battle.


Tickets for the Southpaw show are $8.00 and the show starts at 8PM.

Ann Courtney & The Late Bloomers Play a CD Release Show @ Rockwood Music Hall on April 25th

Following up their 2006 release, The Pollyanna EP, Ann Courtney & the Late Bloomers are releasing their full-length debut, Crocodile, on April 28th (on The Cougar Label).

I've listened to the first few cuts from the disc and was immediately impressed. Ann Courtney sings with a sultry cool and her voice is somewhat similar to artists like Chrissie Hyde and PJ Harvey. How Marvelous (UK Music blog) described Crocdile as "a surprising range of styles, bound together by Ann's voice, which could be described as a uniquely splendid amalgam of Chrissie Hynde, PJ Harvey & Patti Smith, with a Loretta Lynn feel."

Ann Courtney and the Late Bloomers' record release show is at Rockwood Music Hall on Saturday, April 25th. The show is free (one drink minimum) and starts at 10PM.

Here is a video of Ann Courtney performing "Perfect Medicine" live on Fearless Music.
