2010… rollin’ in with some music news…

Floss, a jazz band that is part of Seattle’s Monktail Creative Music Concern, has a new album out called Vitamin A.  It’s for sale at their shows… or for a limited time as a freebie on their website.  Download it, and if you like what you hear, send them some coin (buy it)!

Porcupine Tree frontman Steven Wilson started his Cover Versions singles (CDR and 7″ vinyl) back in 2005.  They are always one new SW song and one “mysterious” cover version (CV1 was Alanis Morissette’s “Thank You”).  Coming the next few months will be the 6th and final CV release, complete with a box to house all six.  SWHQ/Headphone Dust will have the CDs once available (no conclusive date was mentioned – – but the original SW song “An End to End” is now streaming on his MySpace page).  ToneFloat Records will have the CV5 & CV6 vinyl singles once released.
