The Return of Beulah (but not Beulah)
Years ago, there was a band called Beulah. They were one of the hardest-working indie-rock bands in the biz, and they were awesome. So awesome they even made a concert tour DVD and I’m in it, along with my WifeWiferson, Rev. Dave and Mark.
Then they broke up and we were all very sad. That was five years ago, and I’ve since spent my time re-listening to their music, falling in love with them over-and-over again. In fact, when I’m listening to them at work and someone asks, “what is that dulcet tone?” I am excited to tell them all about Beulah and even rip them a few songs.
But my drought of new tunes is starting to end, because Miles Kurosky, former lead singer of Beulah, is finally expected to release his solo album. He’s posted the first single called An Apple for An Apple on his MySpace page, and it’s pretty excellent.
As expected it’s similar in lyric an tone to Beulah–dark, downbeat poetry wrapped in an summery, pop sound. And as expected, I pretty much love it.

Good one Greedo.
By coincidence, I have been listening to both When Your Heartstrings Break and Yoko quite a bit since late winter.
