Today La Blogotheque<\/a><\/strong> and A.V. Club<\/strong><\/a> have graced us with us a superb 15 minutes of A.C. Newman, Neko Case<\/strong> and crafty cohorts performing three songs off of Newman’s<\/strong> latest songcraft masterpiece, Shut Down The Streets<\/a> <\/strong>(featuring Ms. Case). The video is dubbed The Hudson River Session<\/strong> and was shot at Old Soul Studios<\/a><\/strong> in the woods of Catskill, New York (near Newman’s current abode).\u00a0 While Nick Kinsey, Zach Tonorio-Miller<\/strong> and Geoff Countryman<\/strong> add much to the performances, its the subtly-complex songs and the vocal meshing of Newman and Case that provide the true magic here.\u00a0 These two were simply born to sing together. Go over to A.V. Club HERE<\/strong><\/a> to read Newman’s expliques of the featured songs I’m Not Talking<\/strong>, Encyclopedia of Classic<\/strong><\/em> Takedowns<\/strong>, and There’s Money In New Wave<\/strong><\/em>.\u00a0 <\/strong>And do yourselves a favor and support this great artist by going HERE<\/strong><\/a> to buy this great new recording.\u00a0 Below the videos are Newman’s current tour dates.
