THEY COME FROM THE LAND DOWN UNDER

This week I have been focusing on bands from Australia. I must say I have found some amazing music and I only hope I can get a taste of the music scene when I'm there next week. Check out my latest find...An Horse!

An Horse's debut full-length, Rearrange Beds, hits shelves on March 17 (mom and pop music co.), but as you may already know, you can get the digital version on iTunes! You may also already be aware that Sara Quin (Tegan and Sara) made the record with An Horse, and invited the Australian duo on tour with T & S last spring.

We're excited to share this little video of Sara interviewing An Horse.

Also, the band will be touring North America starting February 25th (dates below) -- if you'd like to cover a show, or run a ticket giveaway contest, just say the word...they'll also be at SXSW--more on that soon.
