Tenderhead
• Monday, September 17
Tenderhead's new CD OOZE drops.

A little taste of Tenderhead (fronted by the multi-talented Shena Verrett) doing "Over" live @ Knitting Factory in 2006. Their previous CD, Psickcevyn -Ate is still available at at CDBaby (love 'em!).


UPDATE: The OOZE release date is now September 30th. Yeah, Ms. Verrett is going to make us wait. But when it's right it's ready, and when it's ready it's right. Right?
