My cousin and his band, Tapes ‘n Tapes, are touring the east coast this month. Monday night, they’ll perform at hipster hot spot the Middle East in Cambridge. They also got a write-up in today’s Boston Globe, which mentioned that they did finally get signed after some top-secret dealings over the last couple of months. The label? XL Recordings.
Josh and his band-manager fiancée, Keri, are planning to tie the knot in mid-September, in her home town in South Dakota. Now I’m beginning to wonder if the wedding might not attract some kind of media frenzy.
