Vermont rocktress Grace Potter is back with her Nocturnals to release their third LP album, Grace Potter & The Nocturnals.
local natives : airplanes
You can stream the entire album at the band’s homepage.
the bangles : hero takes a fall
First chick band that I thought was great. Listen to those harmonies and that lead guitar sound. Before they “sold out” (which they themselves admit) they had a great thing going. In 1985 I hung out pre and post show with them in a bar in Virginia Beach – still a night to remember. Susanna is still doing it with Matthew Sweet – Rain, Different Drum, Cinnamon Girl, You’re So Vain, Maggie May – check out “Under The Covers”.
zooey for the win
“She & Him” video premier of “In The Sun” – Zooey hula hoops! Stick a fork in me.
lissie : little lovin'
Lissie is one of my favorite new voices.

um… nice!
Shine on you crazy diamond
That is the most beautiful I have ever seen her. And that is saying A LOT!! Love the look.
What happened to the tom boy that Grace use to be. Next you’ll tell she doesn’t burp anymore.
Was a really fantastic show last night in Greenville. Glad someone found the photos!
And as far as Grace being dressed up (she did look fabulous!)…she said something along the lines of, “I got unnecessarily dressed up for you all tonight. The longer it’s been since a girl has showered, the more she dresses up. I stink right now.” Priceless.
If this isn’t the very vision of Summer , I don’t know what is….
thanks JrzyGyrl for the insight to the beautiful dress!! I have been there before. love it-and Grace looks beautiful, but then again she looks great in her glasses, in her jeans and a tshirt, and in her rugged worn in boots!

Now that’s downright funny!
This show was awesome! Benny got a solo. And Scott & Benny were trading licks and sounding great together.
Apparently, Greenville was….http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-6258946165595259829
Then there’s this at Greenville: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFkYKU70vck
It was a most excellent GPN show in Greenville. I think Grace also mentioned something about it being her “Loretta Lynn” look, and apologized for being a Vermont yankee in the South.
