"All exquisite grace and charm, infused with more than enough beauty to compensate for the losses it mourns," is how NPR describes the new album by Portland's Horse Feathers, Cynic's New Year, out next week on Kill Rock Stars. They'll be at Barboza (at Neumos) on 4/20 and we have a pair of tickets to give away! Enter to win by e-mailing contests@easystreetonline.com with the subject line "Fire To Fields" and please include full name with entry. We'll draw a winner on 4/18. Good luck!
