Get to Know the Neighbourhood Council

I just finished a phone interview with Pat Flegel of the band Women, from Calgary, Canada, for an upcoming article in the paper. He said very good things another Calgary band called the Neighbourhood Council, who are currently on tour with Deerhunter and Times New Viking. I checked 'em out, and he's right. The Neighbourhood Council is great. Take a listen to this song from their Set Pieces EP:

LISTEN:







The Neighbourhood Council - "Liver and Tan"

Unfortunately the Neighbourhood Council don't appear to be on the bill for the Portland Deerhunter/Times New Viking show on November 22, but they're steadily gaining attention and even got a mention on Stereogum. Apparently they don't have a label but they're all still really young--none of them are in their 20s. Here's hoping they make their way to our part of the Pacific Northwest soon.
