have we got contact, you and me?



In the words of a Persian poet:

The spider weaves the curtains in the palace of the Caesars;

the owl calls the watches in the towers of Afrasiab.


And the Caulfield Sisters? Why, they're heading back on stage where they belong, ready to win the Nobel Prize for rocking your motherfucking ass off.

Last time we heard from the Sisters, way back in the yonder days of Ought-Seven, it was still George Bush's America, the Great Depression was still in the planning stages over at Goldman Sachs, and ... well, just trust me kids, it was way different. Not too many people knew about that Twitter thing yet, so for entertainment people would sometimes sit in their houses and watch something called "television," or if they were really lucky they'd get to wander down to Pianos or Sin-e and witness three amazing women blasting everyone's synapses to pieces with their songs about mosquitoes, Johnny Cash, shovels and Holden Caulfield's kid sister.

Amazingly enough, those days are back. But let's let them tell it:

That’s right! We'll be playing our first show in over two years on October 10th at Pete’s Candy Store in Brooklyn, NY. We’ll be performing as very special guests at American Laundromat Records release party for Julie Peel's album "Near The Sun".

The party starts at 7pm and goes till 11pm. We'll be going on at about 9:30pm but get there early to see Julie, and the other performers.

We hope to see you there... we're gonna rock your asses off!!!


Uh, did I mention that the show is tonight? It starts in about an hour -- so hurry! hurry!

P.S. Want even more memories of the old days? Seems like American Laundromat has dredged up some more physical copies of the Sisters' stellar 2004 EP Say It With Fire. You can buy them here.
