Next week we will be gifted the pleasure of a new album from Dan Bejar, the man behind Destroyer. Well, it’s Five Spanish Songs, so you won’t likely get an entire album’s worth of new material, but five songs alone is enough. He’ll likely be bringing those tunes to Austin on Tuesday night, which makes sense considering four of the tracks are sung entirely in Spanish, our honorary secondary language. You won’t want to miss the show, regardless, as Dan’s such a talented performer that it makes it difficult to take your eyes off him. He’ll be joined by the always entertaining John Wesley Coleman, so you can grab a bit of local flavor while you’re at it. See you there? Sounds good to me.

The last place I expected to find myself on a Wednesday night was in church, but I had good reason to be there: Laura Marling. The unique songwriter was holing up at the Central Presbyterian Church for the night, and the acoustics alone guaranteed great sound, so we had to be there (I didn’t burn!).
