Canasta

Chicago's leading chamber-pop group, Canasta, is preparing for the release of its new LP, The Fakeout, the Tease and the Breather.  The album drops later this month but you can get a preview at canastamusic.com, where the songs are already streaming.

Canasta celebrates the new album with a pair of record-release shows this Saturday evening at Schubas Tavern, one of the two or three best music rooms in Chicago.  The $14 ticket price includes a copy of the new CD.  You can't beat that.

My Flavorpill preview is here.
