As we have mentioned Company of Thieves will be releasing their next album, Running From a Gamble, on May 17th. The band just released a great acoustic video for the track "Queen of Hearts".

Stretch your mind so open and step into the mystical world of Sarah Weis. The latest release from the local cassette label Plustapes is the far reaching and career encompassing effort from Sarah Weis. Musik & Plus is a 25-song collection of the best moments and sounds from this adventurous musician, actress, and just all around creative person. This is infact is her debut album, but this songs and images have been circling our consciousness for years.

The cassette will be released in June, but Sarah is holding a virtual listening party on May 10th at 6:30. She will be playing the new cassette on her Fisher Price tape player. Join the party here.

The Part Five have a new single out called "C-Clamp". It comes from their new full-length release called The Tightening. The track reminds me a little of early New Order, but with a little more rock and a little less of the '80's cheesy. I love how this tracks breaks down around the 2 minute mark and then comes back full force.

The Part Five will be performing at The Empty Bottle on May 15th with Dozens. Tickets are only $3 and the shows starts at 7pm.

Color Radio will be releasing their debut full-length album, Architects, on June 14th. The band has made a video with the talented Elijah Alvarado for Elephilms for the albums first single "Quiet House".

Color Radio will be performing at Subt on May 6th with Big Science and An Aesthetic Anaesthetic (17 & Over / $10).

Hey Champ is back again with a new EP called "Anything At All" (Turnout, May 10th). This is the band's follow-up to last year's hit EP "Star".

Hey Champ is performing a dj set this Sunday, May 8th, at Smart Bar with Kid Color, Adulture, and Michael Serafini.
