I've been watching Public Service Broadcasting play live for quite some years now... they keep getting better and their live shows have also evolved. Each album has a concept or theme. Their latest album: 'The Last Flight' tells the story of Amelia Earhart's last flight. This gig went on sale on Wednesday this week. I was in straight away on the pre-sale and managed to get seats before it sold out... this is going to be excellent. The month before I am going to see Sigur Ros at the Royal Albert Hall, also with an orchestra. What's your next live music going to be?

You wait ages for an album about Amelia Earhart and then two come along at once. The new album from Public Service Broadcasting: "The Last Flight"  comes out in early October and some tracks are already out. I'm looking forward to seeing some of them being played at the end of October. Meanwhile Laurie Anderson has released her own version of that last flight and it's very different to the PSB one, and excellent. It's the usual mix of recordings, sound and vocal effects and electronic music, and is a lot more accessible than some of Laurie Anderson's work. Available on the usual streaming services.

The first single from the new album by Public Service Broadcasting is now out... and it's wonderful... Can't wait until the tour in October.
