The Last Bison are about to blow up; mark it down. Their sophomore LP, Inheritance, is out Tuesday, and it’s going to be a doozy. They absolutely filled the space at Motorco last night in a gorgeous way. An excellent show, and glad I got to see and shoot them before they’re too important for me….

lost in the trees @ gerrard hall, originally uploaded by minervacat. Woodpigeon — Die Stadt Muzikanten. Out 1/12/2010, Boompa Records. Ah, the first mystery album of 2010 in my iTunes.
