New Albany is staging a free show featuring Wax Fang and Cabin, in the Riverfront Amphitheatre, next Saturday, September 24, at 7:30p. If you are not familiar with these two bands, for shame – go forth and check them out. (Besides, Wax Fang’s Scott Carney plays a Theramin.) Just to help you decide, here’s Wax Fang’s “Majestic”:

The New York Times has a tour-the-city feature about the Derby City, called 36 hours in Louisville, which, in addition to all the usual attraction, plugs Louisville’s music scene.

Weekly Ink, March 9
Catching up with this week’s neo LEO, we find Mat Herron interviewing the Scissor Sisters, which band is opening for Lady Gaga on Saturday at the Yum! David Serchuk has an lengthy article on the Louisville Orchestra situation, including a look at the Louisville Orchestra Foundation, which has seen its portfolio fall considerably over the last three years. Finally, Matt Sullivan reviews the new Minnow CD, Hello Hubris.
Over at Velocity, which this week has a very music-heavy issue, Joe Lord has a solid article on Gill Holland and sonaBlast! Records, particularly noting the different business model the label is running with. Jeffrey Puckett also writes up the Scissor Sisters, while noting the Lexington connection within the band. (That article ran in the C-J yesterday.) Lord also has an overview of several Louisville bands that have been making some noise of late, including, of course, MMJ, The Pass, Wax Fang, The Fervor, Bukshot, Broken Spurs, Whistle Peak, the Deloreans, the Ladybirds, Renzo Charlez, and Lydia Burrell. Joe Lord also wrote a story on the resurgence of video in the music scene. (Joe really earned his paycheck this week.)
