Seattle-based foursome Loose Wing to issue "Miracle Baby" follow-up to 2019 debut album on Nov. 10, 2023

NEWS

Legendary journalist Greil Marcus stays true to his reputation as a scholar of modern rock’s intersection with rock history when noting in a 2019 Rolling Stone column that “some of the same dirt rubbed off” in regard to how Seattle foursome Loose Wing picked up mess from fellow Emerald City singer Merilee Rush, best-known for her 1968 hit “Angel of the Morning.”

Loose Wing hasn’t cleaned up completely since its critically praised debut album — “Loose Wing are serving as an example that the area’s still got it,” says UPROXX. Instead the band, led by songwriter Claire Tucker, has further focused its pounding and present sound via the upcoming Miracle Baby (Nov. 10, Drums & Wires Recordings.)

Eyebrow-raising wordplay of band’s name extends to title of Fuckleberry Hinn’s long-awaited album “Neither/Nor,” out Sept. 1.

NEWS

The colorful washes of My Bloody Valentine, the unflinching sensitivity of Elliott Smith, and the unimpeachable idealism of Fugazi mix with innocent wonder on the sprawling 22-track double-album debut by Norway’s Fuckleberry Hinn.

The DIY ethos of the Elephant 6 Collective is a production influence that underpins the commanding urgency heard on the more than half-dozen singles that the group has released to date.  

Now, the eyebrow-raising wordplay of the band’s name extends to the title of Fuckleberry Hinn’s long-awaited album Neither/Nor (Sept. 1, Wonderful & Strange Records), a punny tribute to Smith’s modern classic Either/Or, a touchstone album for Fuckleberry Hinn’s founding core pair of Øysteins: Øystein Ulvund and Øystein Megård.
