Since you guys liked The Eames Era so much, I figured I’d give you a peak into another band I spun while at WRFL. Tender Forever is a nice female-fronted project from France. Instrumentally it’s more electro; but what they may lack in organic nature, they make up for with Melanie Valera’s breathy, yet alluring vocals. And believe you me, they put those vocals to good use. ‘Hot’ not only doubles her vocals, but makes a veritable choir out of them!

And if you liked the new Bishop Allen song I posted the other day, here’s your chance to buy the January EP fron which it comes. If you’re hesitating at all in your decision, just know that these EPs are limited to 1000 copies. I kid you not, I purchased three of them.
Zach has Petra Hayden covering the Beach Boys and others.
If you live in Texas (or will be there around SXSW time), you should probably go to this and then this. I won’t be there, but Chris from GvB and Scott Stereogum will make sure you have a fun time. Anyone want to bet on who’s the first blogger to get drunk and start shouting requests for Kelly Clarkson covers at Ted Leo?
