As SXSW thunders to a close and spring begins, take a moment to check out the updated LARS Fresh Music page for new/semi-new releases that you might've missed. Keren Ann is featured twice in today's Times, in Fashion & Styles and in Jon Pareles' take on the in-home studio in Arts & Leisure. Instead of the SXSW radio being found on the LARS airwaves, it will do you better to simply go here. And the snow here is almost completely melted, a far cry from January when the picture above was taken. All in all, with a little help from My Bloody Valentine's Loveless, the day's a good one. Rock on kids.
Don't forget that tonight back on the East Coast, SPIELERFRAU will be entertaining the masses at Southpaw. Check the Events Calendar for more info, and check below in case you still haven't heard of Spielerfrau.

I've loved all I've needed love/Sordid details following-S.
