March 16th, 2010Good afternoon Upper East Siders, Jagjaguwar here, with a little update as to what our Queen Bee, Little J has on her nightstand. That’s right, the Bon Iver issue of The Fader. Nice going, Jenny (or some really hip set designer). Her drug dealer boyfriend is sitting on Justin Vernon’s face!!!
You can read the great, great Fader story by David Bevan on Bon Iver (with gorgeous photos by Jason Nocito) here.
You know you love me.
xoxo,
Jagjaguwar

It turns out that the great Peter Gabriel cover of Bon Iver’s “Flume” for his record Scratch My Back isn’t the whole story. Bon Iver was asked to contribute a cover as well, and the result is a split 7″ with a cover of Gabriel’s “Come Talk To Me” that will be available as an exclusive from Jagjaguwar at participating Record Store Day stores. More info after the jump!

Awesome Justin Vernon collaborations keep rolling in just when you need something to sustain your Bon Iver high. We know the truth! You’ve worn out your copy of For Emma, Forever Ago and every morning when you get up you longingly stroke the ticket stubs from their last show that you have stuck in your bathroom mirror. Bon Iver will be back, dudes, do not fear.
In the meantime, Justin has contributed to a number of songs on the upcoming Anaïs Mitchell album, Hadestown. It’s being released this Tuesday, March 9th, by our friends at Righteous Babe. Details and music to hear after the jump! More

I’m so excited about Tuesday, the day Jagjaguwar official releases The Besnard Lakes Are the Roaring Night: the gorgeous, dark and thrilling third album by The Besnard Lakes. This album is currently streaming in its entirety on one of my favorite music sites, Spinner. Listen here, and while you’re at the site, check out these great interviews by Michael Ayers and Jenny Charlesworth.
You can still pre-order cds and lps from our mail order and get an instant download of the record here. We’ll have their official SXSW schedule ironed out in the next couple of days, swearsies.

Jagjaguwar is proud to announce the signing of Peter Wolf Crier. Stay tuned for the release of their album Inter-Be on May 25 in the U.S. and June 7 in the U.K.
Inter-Be is the debut album by PETER WOLF CRIER, the Minneapolis-based duo of Peter Pisano and Brian Moen. The album was born on a single summer night when Pisano felt a torrent of creativity after what had felt, to him, like an interminably long dry spell. He shared the songs with Moen, and over the months that followed, at Moen’s home, these rough-hewed tunes became what they are now: a confident collection of songs, but deceptive in that their very guts still reflect the thoughts of a man in transition.

It’s been a little over two years, or 1,051,200 minutes, or roughly 61,835 back-to-back “Bright Lights” since the release of “In The Future”. All of the Black Mountaineers have been staying busy, though.
