Track:Marked Up
The Wrens' Meandowlands came out in 2003 and it remains a favorite of mine. Now the group is at work on a follow-up.

There's a great interview with them over at Stereogum where this video is from. You have to listen to this t...

Not sure how much of a serious "last show" this really was, but indie rock vets The Wrens played Emo's in Austin on July 21 and referred to it as their "graduation" at the end of 4 years of touring off of "The Meadowlands." They seemed to be having too much fun to convince me they actually plan to stop playing, but I figured I better catch it just in case. Bassist/singer Kevin Whelan must be ...
