Since we last mentioned CocoRosie, the sister act (Sierra and Bianca Casady) has released their new album Tales Of A GrassWidow and announced a North American fall tour dates, starting in October.
The album, as described by the Guardian, indicate that it's both medieval and "Timbaland-esque beat".
Check out their video for "Child Bride" via YouTube, their single from Tales Of A Grass Widow. The video was directed by Emma Freeman and tells a story of feminism, sexism, child abuse, human rights and gender inequalities through the brutal circumstances that often result from an arranged marriage.
On a similar vein, a new feminist magazine called Girls Against God (GAG) just arrived via Bianca Casady and artist Anne Sherwood Pundyk. The tabloid-sized publication includes contributions from: Antony, Gabby Bess, Melanie Bonajo, Vaginal Davis, Yasmine Hadan, Emely Neu, Kembra Pfahler, Marguerite Stern, Alexyss K. Tylor; and contributions from Johanna Constantine, Mary Hanlon, Julie Higonnet, Molly O’Brien, Chloe Olewitz, Alice O’Malley, Kara L. Rooney, and J.M. Ruellan. You can buy the magazine on becapricious.com.

Caitlin Rose had a lot of little stories for all her songs. Some of the highlight for me was about how she's afraid of clowns in tank tops ("Only a Clown"), calling old friends randomly at 2am ("Old Numbers")
.…
We caught Caitlin Rose live in Minneapolis earlier this year, she was playing a ton of new songs from her latest album
The Stand-In. She's still currently on tour in support of the new album, so check the tour information below.
Recently, Rose unveiled her cover of The National's single, "Pink Rabbits." In regards to why she choose to cover the song, she confessed to ELLE magazine, "this song creeped up on me in the same way the band did. It was something I'd heard and enjoyed on several occasions. To sort of know something is great before it resonates with you, then all of a sudden it's under your skin, like nothing else. Like being told this juicy secret you already know. It's my favorite way to fall in love with music."

Arkansas' Kendl Winter recently shared her new song "Rosie" via vimeo. Not a lot of details on her biography, other than that she is a banjo-loving vagabond, who travels the countryside like Johnny Appleseed. The song is taken from her album It Can Be Done!, out now on K Records.
