Adam Green is a special guy indeed. He was already making great music (with such titles as "Who's got the Crack") at the age of 14 as one half of the anti folk phenomena The Moldy Peaches. He's since proved himself a prolific solo artist with five albums and counting under his belt. The music has grown with the man and over time we've listened to him soak up and introduce influences as far ranging as Nashville honky tonk, Chinese food, Al Green, Sly & the Family Stone, Don Cherry, Dr John and of course bagels. This is the sound of an artist absorbing everything around him and then sonically sharing his world with the listener, if we could, we'd all move there tomorrow.

Holly Miranda

How 27 year-old Holly Miranda arrived at The Magician's Private Library is a tale every bit as wild as the record's otherworldly title suggests. The end result, as you've probably heard, is one of the most enthralling records of 2010. From the fantastical spell of 'Forest Green Oh Forest Green' to the horn-laden atmospherics of 'Joints,' The Magician's Private Library is a record intent on taking you on a journey. It's a record equally in love ('Waves') and in dreams ('Sweet Dreams', 'Everytime I Got To Sleep', 'Sleep On Fire'), dark, bold and sonically ambitious - horns & beats, MPC & strings, synths & bells & reverb, all here.

Band of Skulls
Special Guests: The 22-20s
Date: April 22, 2010 @ 9:00pm
Venue: The Crocodile (21+)

The three members of Band of Skulls, Russell Marsden (guitar & vocals), Emma Richardson (bass & vocals) & Matt Hayward (drums), first met at college and quickly discovered that having two lead singers and three songwriters in a band was always going to present unlimited possibilities. With their creative process and sonic path fully intact the band quickly established themselves in the music and art community with a series of culturally inspired club nights in Southampton, London and further afield in Moscow and Tokyo.

The Antlers

Date: May 5, 2010 @ 9:00pm

Sometimes you have to put yourself first, no matter how difficult that notion seems; no matter how much time and effort you've already put into this one person-the person who's reduced your very being to its absolute core. Just ask Peter Silberman, the string-pulling founder of The Antlers, a solo project that suddenly went widescreen on the self-released Hospice LP (now receiving a proper widespread pressing through Frenchkiss). The first Antlers effort to feature two key permanent players-powerhouse drummer Michael Lerner and the layer-lathering multi-instrumentalist Darby Cicci-it's an album with a sound that's actually as ambitious as its concept.

The Besnard Lakes
Date: May 6, 2010 @ 9:00pm
Venue: The Crocodile (21+)
Price: $10.00 in advance, $12.00 day of show, not including applicable fees
Seating: General Admission
On sale date: Saturday, February 20th @ 10am
Ticketing information: Online at TheCrocodile.com or in person at Sonic Boom Records.  

The Besnard Lakes Are the Roaring Night calls upon the influence of ELO and finer parts of the Alan Parsons Project in its orchestration. Still helped by the Ghost of Beach Boys Past, the album is more Dennis Wilson than Brian, and more Peter Green Fleetwood Mac than Lindsay Buckingham. That said, standout track "Albatross" has all the swagger of a Stevie Nicks-led Fleetwood Mac classic or Roy Orbison reimagined as a rollicking, snakeskin-booted Mazzy Star -- dousing it all in gas and throwing the match as we hear its tale of Vancouver's skid row and its inhabitants.
