  <title>The Breeders at Paradiso, Amsterdam on 3 Jun 2013</title>
  <description><![CDATA[Location: Paradiso

25 euro

Het is dit jaar 20 jaar geleden dat de Amerikaanse indierockband The Breeders het succesvolle album ‘Last Splash’ uitbracht. De band, onder leiding van de tweelingzussen Kim en Kelley Deal, greep dit jubileum aan om een re-issue hiervan uit te brengen, die in april zal verschijnen. Deze release valt samen met hun "LSXX"  tour, die de band in de oorspronkelijke ‘Last Splash’ bezetting, naar Paradiso voert. ‘Last Splash’ is een van de vier albums die de band sinds hun oprichting in 1988 heeft uitgebracht en als de succesvolste wordt beschouwd. Van dit album verschenen 3 singles, namelijk ‘Cannonball’, ‘One Divine Hammer’ en ‘Saints’. Het aanstekelijke en door een markante baspartij gedragen Cannonball werd een grote hit. The Breeders wisten met hun charmante, speelse en minimalistisch aandoende sound, in een tijd dat het rauwe en hardere gitaargeluid in het alternatieve circuit de overhand had, op te vallen en liet dan ook een andere kant horen die zonder meer het “ninetees” gevoel vertegenwoordigt.]]></description>

  <title>Hopscotch Music Festival 2013 on 5 Sep 2013</title>
  <description><![CDATA[Location: Various Venues

With more than 450 bands performing and 60,000 fans attending since 2010, Hopscotch Music Festival is one of America's most talked-about weekends for music lovers. This year, Hopscotch brings 175 bands to 15 venues in downtown Raleigh. Intended to highlight the Triangle's music scene by pairing exciting local talent with notable national and international artists, Hopscotch offers choices in just about every genre imaginable—rock, hip-hop, alt-country, metal, dance, punk, classical, noise, drone, folk, and more. It is a festival that thrives on the variety and quality of its lineup, and with roughly 35% of the musicians hailing from Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill and other nearby locales, it's a testament to both this region's musical diversity and its national relevance. 

Featuring 175 bands at night, day parties, the Edward McKay Used Books & More Cultural Series, charity activities, a poster exhibition, and more, Hopscotch takes place September 5-7, 2013.]]></description>

  <title>MidPoint Music Festival 2013 on 26 Sep 2013</title>
  <description><![CDATA[Location: Various

MPMF.13 is Sept. 26-28 in downtown Cincinnati and the adjoining Over-the-Rhine district. Musical acts will be hosted on multiple stages within a walkable area, encouraging attendees to explore and discover. Temporary bike racks in front of several MidPoint venues will encourage even more exploration.

Marking its 12th year Sept. 26-28, Cincinnati’s MidPoint Music Festival has developed a reputation as the place to find the next big thing. Many of last year’s performers made year-end lists for Best Album or Best New Artist in major music publications such as Spin, Fader, Pitchfork, NME, Filter and Rolling Stone.

Attendance has grown along with the buzz, jumping from 13,500 in 2008 to more than 27,000 in 2012. 

Mark your calendars now for MPMF.13: Sept. 26-28.

150+ artists still to be released!]]></description>

  <title>The Breeders - LSXX Tour on 28 Oct 2013</title>
  <description><![CDATA[Location: Enmore Theatre

It’s hard to believe that it’s been 20 years since the irrepressible Kim and Kelley Deal – alongside bandmates Jim Macpherson on drums and bassist Josephine Wiggs – released The Breeders’ seminal sophomore album Last Splash, which rocketed to both critical acclaim and commercial success on the back of the omnipresent Cannonball single and their renowned live show. In fitting celebration of this milestone, the line-up of The Breeders responsible for Last Splash are reuniting and will be touring their classic album throughout Australia this October!

While we already knew that they’re visiting Australia this year courtesy of the ATP-curated ‘Release The Bats’ festival being held in Melbourne, they’ve now announced headlining dates in Sydney, Brisbane and Perth, performing Last Splash in its entirety for Australian fans all over the country. To cooincide with the anniversary, The Breeders will also release a deluxe edition of Last Splash titled LSXX, which includes previously unreleased tracks, original demos, private photos and much, much more for the discerning fan.

Of course one half of the Deal sisters needed no introduction prior to forming The Breeders way back in 1990 – Kim had of course been bassist of alt-rock behemoth the Pixies since their inception (the two bands co-existing in perfect harmony for a number of years until the Pixies dissolved in acrimony sometime in 1992), while her identical twin Kelley forged a career in computer programming in California, far from their native Ohio. The pair had played together in their teens singing Hank Williams covers in Dayton bars, so when Kim formed this new project with the Throwing Muses’ Tanya Donelly, it was natural that Kelley would be roped into the fold at some point of time.

The original tenure of The Breeders was a brief and torrid affair. Donelly left the band not long after 1990 debut Pod, to be eventually replaced by Kelley Deal (even though she famously couldn’t play guitar at the time), and they were soon opening for Nirvana on their immense 1992 European tour, but things sadly fell into disarray not long after the massive success of Last Splash. In 1995 Kelley was involved in a drug bust that forced the band into an indefinite hiatus, and – although Kim revived the name a while later and various line-ups of The Breeders have been active on and off ever since, releasing two further albums along the way – until now the band’s definitive line-up has never been brought back together, which is why this impending reunion is ever so special for all involved.

So whether you’re a fan from back in the day looking for a stroll down memory lane or a newcomer with an interest in timeless rock’n’roll, make sure you check out The Breeders when they visit Australia this October. They’ll be playing Last Splash in it’s entirety as well as delving into the depths their awesome catalogue. It may be decades until we get to see them in action again, don’t take the risk!]]></description>
