Pikachunes Auckland Album Release Party feat. Princess Chelsea - December 10 @ Cassette 9

Show with Fabulous Diamonds

Hey,

We are playing a show with Fabulous Diamonds and Sam Hamilton this Friday the 10th at the Wine Cellar. Fabulous Diamonds are this great band from Australia, it's a girl (on drums) and a guy on keys, they both sing. Pitchfork describes it as "head spinny" maybe you can decide for yourself here. I heard their second CD in a record store when I was in Sydney and liked it so much I bought it on the spot.

A Very Little Christmas

Ruby Suns - Two Humans

Here's a pretty video for the lovely Two Humans by The Ruby Suns. Nice and summery for those of us in the southern hemisphere!

Crash Party

Our very own Edmund Cake (of Edmund Cake/Pie Warmer fame) was recently involved in a rather nasty auto-mobile accident. To help him out a little, come to the Crash Fun-raiser, and hear some nice tunes from several fine bands including the legendary Cosbys (watch this space, ahem) and Teen Wolf, featuring the lovely (Princess) Chelsea. Hurrah.

The car crash bit is sad, but the show should be pretty great...
