When we're not compulsively washing our hands, here's what we're reading online:

  • The Beachwood Reporter checks out the latest in live session recordings to hit Chicago: Coach House Sounds.
  • Tankboy reviews the long long long awaited Kid Sister album Ultraviolet which hits store shelves 11/17.
  • Big Rock Candy Mountain has the line on a sweet show at Phyllis' Musical Inn this weekend, plus some Thrills for download.
  • Oh My Rockness has the line on the newest ukelele sounds to hit Chicago in the form of tUnE-YaRds.
  • Songs:Illinois breaks its "no videos" rule with a new one from Caroline Herring.
  • If you're really into Crooked Vultures, you can stream their new album online before it releases on Tuesday (Greg Kot reviewed it already).
  • Also, remember that on Saturday, MTV Jams hits Chicago.
  • Speaking of which, does anyone else miss the old Yo! MTV Raps? What is Ed Lover up to these days?

Enjoy, and have a safe and happy new year!
