marnie stern - chronicles of marnia

I haven't listened to the new one enough to have a good sense of it. It seems likable, but so far it hasn't grabbed me. I guess I've already filed her in the category of people who I only really need a few albums by, and for me it's the first two.

From Kill Rock Stars weekly update:

Marnie Stern will be shredding on national television EVERY NIGHT FOR THE NEXT TWO WEEKS, sitting in on guitar with the 8g Band on NBC's Late Night with Seth Meyers! Put on your Win 'Marnie Win' shirt and tune in at 12:35am every weeknight from now until June 13th.

Marnie was also interviewed by Maura Johnston for Rolling Stone's Young Guns feature, which focuses on some of the best new generation of guitar heroes. Marnie speaks about teaching guitar classes, changes in her technique, and the writing process for her next album.

Marnie's next show is June 13th at Rough Trade NYC. Her most recent album, The Chronicles of Marnia, is available on compact disc and LP (choose yellow OR black vinyl!) from our mail-order store and digitally at our Bandcamp page. Wish it was the Tonight Show, because then she could sit in with the Roots, but I'll check the Myers anyway.

Seth barely talks to anyone in the band when Fred Armisen isn't there, and they play such boring music. Unless something changes since the last time Marnie was there, it's not worth staying up that late.

Album isn't as bad as I feared. It's very warm and sweet and tuneful, though I definitely miss the sense of peril her previous albums had
