Anyone who still says rock 'n' roll is a boys club has yet to see Erika Wennerstrom of Heartless Bastards. The Ohio band's frontwoman has got pipes that could blow the door (and likely the roof and most of the paint) off said boys club without breaking a sweat. Plus, her band's powerful take on blues-rock totally kills. But don't take our word for it:... read more

Contrary to their namesake, the Heartless Bastards have plenty of love to share. Fresh off of their much-lauded third album and a string of high-profile appearances with Jenny Lewis, the Bastards will be continuing their cross-country summer jaunt with a raft of shows with The Decemberists and the Avett Brothers (not to mention a one-off with Andrew Bird) through the end of August.... read more

Still royally tuckered out from some late-night Girl Talkin', day three at Bonnaroo was pretty mellow for me. I spent most of it catching the tunes at the Sonic Stage (Brett Dennen, Grace Potter, Heartless Bastards, etc.) where the lovely Paste oasis is stationed. In early evening, I caught a solid half hour of Athens, Ga. kooks, Of Montreal, who absolutely won me over. As soon as I return from Manchester, I plan on listening to their songs that have been sullenly sitting on my iPod, just waiting to be loved. ... read more

Strange, isn't it? A band from Ohio on a 31-date tour, and...no Ohio dates. What's up with that? Sure, they're probably all tired of playing in the Buckeye state by now, but still. Cincinnati trio Heartless Bastards will release its third album, The Mountain, on Feb. 3. Beginning tomorrow (Jan. 30), the band will hit the road until late April, including a three-day stint at Austin's SXSW.... read more
