So here it is… First off, I will be performing with Kim Powell, the drummer from my new band, on Thurs night 12:30AM at the Breakroom in Seattle (Capital Hill) as part of the ROCKRGRL Music Conference. I'll also be speaking on a panel at the Conference and you can check womanrock.com/brenda for updates in the next few days. And while we're there… ROCKRGRL Conference PARTY ALERT: All rockers and interested fans of WOMANROCK are invited to join us in Seattle, WA on Friday, Nov. 3 at 6PM at the Renaissance Madison Hotel Bar.

Magdalin discusses the music of 19 year-old identical twins Tegan and Sara, their Jones Beach opening for Neil Young and The Pretenders, and the contradictions that shape this unique dynamic duo. "Tegan and Sara's music is just as changeable - and just as powerful - as their individual styles. Hard and soft. Sweet and edgy. Part rock, part rant. Even they have trouble defining their unique sound. But like any successful group or duet, they build on their individual strengths to make it work. "As separate artists we would be strong but flawed," Sara admits, "I'm more in control; Tegan is more uninhibited on stage." http://www.womanrock.com/features/tegan_and_sara.html AMANDA'S COLUMN "Mastering: What is it Good For?" by Amanda Garrigues Check out Amanda's October column in which she writes of the importance of mastering your CD before it goes out to the masses! "Like a lot of artists, I had no idea about the importance of mastering. What I've learned, two records later, is that mastering can make a good record sound great. It adds the warmth and polish. It also gives the album a consistency so that all the pieces sound good together, turning a collection of songs into a cohesive work of art. " http://www.womanrock.com/music_resources.html "The Modgirls of ModMusic Records" by Catherine Moon. " For me it's someone who just has to blow me away. It doesn't happen very often. With Scout I knew, and I would put anything on the line for them, I just believe in them 110%." http://www.womanrock.com/features/modmusic.html Look for WOMANROCK in the current issue of SHIFT Magazine in stores now! Or see what they say about us online at: http://www.shift.com/shiftstd/html/onlinetoc/2000/8.4/html/guide_5towatch.ht ml COMING IN NOVEMBER Interviews with Bubble, Breech, Amy Rigby, Martha Wainwright and other artists playing the ROCKRGRL Music Conference in Seattle. Also in November, David Caddell get's personal with Slumber Party setting off for a two month US tour behind their new record on the Kill Rock Stars label. He writes; "Slumber Party is a Detroit "supergroup" of four women set to blaze across the eastern United States on a 25-city tour. The band is characterized by an intense, romantic sound touched by hints of Joy Division mixed with early 70's psych-folk. Watch for upcoming details about the progress of their tour on WOMANROCK.com, and keep an eye out for Slumber Party coming to your town soon! Tour information can be found through the Kill Rock Stars web site at http://www.killrockstars.com/." - --------------------------------------------- Want to be a sponsor for the WOMANROCK.com Newsletter?
