Some of my most favoritest human beans are in New York this week playing shows. My heart is swelling with joy, and all I really wanna do, baby, is share this with you. First on deck: Angel.
My dearest darling, my bosom friend, Angel Olsen, brings her stirring, soulful, haunting folk to New York for not one but THREE shows this week, so there can be no excuse for missing her while she’s here. With two cassettes, a new 12″, and months of touring in Will Oldham’s supporting band under her belt, Olsen is poised for great things. Look out, Marissa Nadler. The rest of you, mark your calendars:
Thursday, April 14 – 8:30 p.m.

Order her 12″, Strange Cacti, fresh off the presses, and peep a newish video at Bathetic Records.
Here she is performing “Always Half Strange” on Nomadic Reverie in the KDHX studios, circa July 2009.
