With The Comeback Kid, Mulaney's stand up will be available for the first time ever on vinyl and that hilarious format, compact disc! Packed with jokes (duh), bits and utter genius, The Comeback Kid blasts John's charismatic... (read more)

OUR FIRST HUNDRED DAYS

Welcome back to Drag City! You’re here for a very exciting time. You see, the first three months of the year is a crucial time for every record label. This is when our initial music roll-out music conveys to the listeners out there our priorities, and accents what will be our focus in the year to come. Success or failure for the whole year can literally be determined by the combination of these initial releases! One... (read more)

The exploratory transition into solo song-scribe found on Cory Hanson's The Unborn Capitalist From Limbo put newly formed strengths as a songwriter and lyricist on display with palpable acuity. After its release at the end of 2016 and the fantastic February tour of the Pacific Northwest that followed, it's about time we approach The Unborn Capitalist From Limbo from a new angle, and through a lens: yes, Cory has a fresh music video ripe for consumption! "Garden of Delight" was shot earlier this year,... (read more)

Attention! The Peacers now present: Introducing the Crimsmen! Escalating from a disembodied voice to slowly mounting full-band hypnosis, this is a trip into the goldenrod days of fandom, a dimension where a t-shirt could change your life. Since their first LP in the summer 2015, The Peacers have been gigging in SF and around, collecting tunes for this divinely awaited moment: Introducing the Crimsmen. Lurching back into life, with buzz and hum alight and colors flashing, is the name, but the instigators of... (read more)

Fresh from conquering the West Coast, Six Organs of Admittance are about to embark on a massive tour of the middle and Eastern USA! In trio format with Elisa Ambrogio and Donovan Quinn (killer band alert!) flanking, Ben Chasny will surely have some tricks up his wizard sleeves beyond the normal six string madness that accompanies each and every Six Organs show. Get that finger out of your nose and make sure you get there, chappy, or forever miss out on a potentially life-affirming experience!

As an artist, Laetitia Sadier is ever evolving, inspired by a mind's-eye envisaging of geometric forms and their possible permutations. Her new record, Find Me Finding You, recorded with the Source Ensemble of Nina Savary, Xavi Muñoz and Emmanuel Mario, is an inspired, collaborative effort full of exciting, new dynamics interspersed with sounds that Sadier (and 'Lab) Heads will find comfortingly familiar! With a massive European tour coming up and a few festival appearances in the U.S., not to mention the release... (read more)

Platinum Tips and Ice Cream (scenes from the water park) is new from Royal Trux. The songs were written over a span of time as wide as eagle's wings - but the recordings are new, live, unrehearsed and were presented in real time to a few thousand people in California and NYC. Performance art? Yes! But only because, unlike so many other aural "content providers," Neil Hagerty and Jennifer Herrema are true artists writing their own futures into the present. This was, and will... (read more)

Ladies and germs; a sweat-stained, celebrity-obcessed, phlegm-spewing representative of world class entertainment is our midst! And, no, we're not talking about our commander-in-chief - it's just Neeeeeiiiillll Hammmmmburgerrrr! For a (mercifully) brief stint, the world's hardest working man in showbiz will be making stops in big name cities such as LaCrosse, Wisconsin and Des Moine, IA in April! Those little red dots are the backbone of this country, folks. Once he gets run out of those towns, he'll drift up to  the northwest to... (read more)

Don't let the global warming fool ya! Through the early days of spring, the Pangs train is motoring on, with delectable blasts of spindly folk guitar steaming from every old-fashioned valve. Alasdair Roberts is conductor of this sonic perambulator, which is set to embark on a second leg of touring through the United Kingdom this week! Alasdair and co. (dude's going full power trio on this one, wi' Stevie Jones on bass and Alex Neilson on drums, ye olde jam heids!) get things moving in... (read more)

Regarding the feverish splash of Ty Segall's paintings - a raw blurting of acrylics in the service of static figure work and portraiture - it is hard not to feel the urge to kick and scream. This is what the paintings want of you, to regard life... (read more)
