If you missed Ra Ra Riot on Jimmy Kimmel, don't despair! You can still catch it here:
This song was drummer Gabriel Duquette's last performance with Ra Ra Riot after two years with the band.
You can see them up close and personal at The Biltmore Cabaret on Jan 29. Make sure you get there early to see Givers. Stereogum and Dirty Projectors are big Givers fans and we are too!

SWAK would like to congratulate THE BESNARD LAKES, OWEN PALLETT, BROKEN SOCIAL SCENE and CARIBOU on making the 2010 Polaris Prize Short List. This is going to make for an awesome telecast on September 25th. We might even watch it live...unless there is a show that night, then we'll have to tape it on the PVR. Either way, we're looking forward to watching the Gala. Who doesn't love a good Gala?

Sub Pop recording artists Fruit Bats, play the Media Club on August 9th. We realize it's barely even July, but we wanted to give you time to get hooked on The Ruminant Band.
If you're lucky enough to have a flux capacitor, we suggest setting your coordinates to June 7th, 2010 at the Biltmore. Delorean put on a awesome Monday night dance party. It felt like summer underground! For those that missed the show, we suggest picking up a copy of Subiza. It's instant sunshine.
Joanna Newsom has an opinion. In a May interview with The Guardian, the harp playing songstress sounds off on Lady Gaga and Madonna. We however, are more interested in her music than what she thinks of Madge. Checkout the Pitchfork review of her ambitious 3-disc release, Have One on Me.
See Joanna live in Vancouver on August 5th at the Vogue Theatre.
