As a longtime staple of the Saddle Creek roster, Omaha may always be where Cursive’s heart is. In the past few years, the band members have actually scattered across the country. Lead singer Tim Kasher (who also plays in The Good Life) has been trying his luck in Los Angeles and is writing screenplays when he’s not making music.
It’s been two years since Cursive unleashed Happy Hollow and now they are in the process of recording again. In this session, they play two tracks that will likely end up on the next album, although they tell Mike that they’ve written about 25 songs and only 8 or 9 are in serious consideration thus far.
We were very fortunate to host the band in the Lounge while they were on a brief Midwestern tour to road test some of this new material.

Track Listing:
Bad Sects
The Donkey (new/unreleased) - interview -
Sierra
We’re Going To Hell (new/unreleased)
Jamey See Tai and Chad Blevins comprise this instrumental duo from Louisville, Kentucky who made quite an impression on us with their debut Pictures Of A Changing World.
Turns out, it was a long road to the release of this album. The guys actually started playing music together about five years ago. They’ve become known regionally for their excellent live shows, which also include video projections from Jamey’s brother Jesse.
Fans of Explosions In The Sky, Sigur Ros, and Mogwai should check out this album post-haste.
Jesse Elliott is a Washington D.C. area musician whose debut album, A Picture Of The Three Of Us At The Gate To The Garden Of Eden, was released earlier this year.
His band is truly collaborative, with a revolving lineup of musicians and friends. The band’s lineup even changes while from city to city while on tour, as Jesse plays with different folks at almost every stop.
For this lively performance, he brought along multi-instrumentalist Tom Hnatow and some Lounge alumni in the form of Mark Charles Heidinger and Robby Cosenza (from The Apparitions, among many other projects).

It was a big thrill having Okkervil River into the lounge last week. Will Sheff played three of the four songs solo acoustic for us during their session and our friend Kevin of Soft City Lights did a great job capturing this stripped down version of “A Hand To Take Hold Of The Scene” from their most recent album, The Stage Names.
Enjoy the video below, and a download of the session as well…..
