Surely, it'll be sooner than later right. She was just bragging all over Instram that they were finishing up the mastering like a month ago. Or did I make that up? Was that a dream I had?

You're right.

Not gonna lie, guys. I'm looking forward to this more than any other release this year.

Review from a show the other night in San Francisco:

http://www.sfcritic.com/2015/02/26/thao ... eart/22969

The Omaha-based Mynabirds – played by lead singer Laura Burhenn – blew me away. Literally, (the mic was a little too hot at times), and figuratively with a powerful, nuanced and polished sound. I’d read that she was able to do the girl-with-a-piano-singing-about-the-heart thing without shmaltz and didn’t quite believe it. But there it was. Of the 4 acts of the night, this was the one that most surprised me, and the one who carried the most composure. Her voice evoked at different moments Loreena McKennitt, Jenny Lewis, Emmy Lou Harris and Cat Power. Of the loop station and vocal harmony processor she used to turn the solo performance into rich arrangements, she joked, “the cost of having a band is going up, so I’ve got robots as back-up singers.” The robots (via vocal loops) were also her drummer and bass player. An impressive show that’s got me looking forward to a deeper delve into this band’s music.

Laura confirmed @ SXSW the new album drops "this summer."

NEW SONG!

[Dev]

are these the guys that opened for modest mouse?

[epilogue]

I don't think so, no.

[Kaius]

Well, that was... ok.

[epilogue]

IT WAS FUCKING GREAT AND YOU KNOW IT

JUST WAIT UNTIL YOU HEAR THE FULL BAND VERSION FROM THE ALBUM COMING OUT THIS SUMMER

WHEN YOU HEAR IT AND YOU LOVE IT I'M GONNA TOTALLY THROW THIS POST BACK IN YOUR FACE

[Kaius]

Listen, I really love the first 2 albums, and I've been excited for this one, and I'm sure a full studio version will help that song out, though it was a nice little performance.

My excitement has just waned a little dafter all of the waiting. I'm not going to freak out or anything just yet.

[epilogue]

Your loss.

It's going to be glorious. And when it is, I'll remember this. Oh....


I'll remember this.

Laura confirmed @ SXSW the new album drops "this summer."

Probably an Omaha show sometime in the August-November range. Hell yes I will go.
