Chinese Music: February 2011 Archives

Not a Shanghai band obviously, but with the Chinese New Year holiday there's not much going on here at the moment. Plus, Hedgehog are a good band and a new song from them is worth getting excited about. The video here is for their song 'Honeyed and Killed', which as far as I know is still the title of their forthcoming album, due out next month. They should be in town around mid-March to promote the record too, so keep an eye out for that show (the gig is confirmed, the album less so - it's in post-production, but Queen Sea Big Shark can attest to an album release tour being organised not necessarily meaning you have an album to release). Interestingly, rumour has it that their show will be on the same night that another big name Beijing band with a new line-up comes to town - should be interesting to see where the crowds go. That other band's going to SXSW instead now.
