Sleater-Kinney’s Carrie Brownstein and Corin Tucker have shared lists with us of their favorite music of 2023. Carrie’s list includes songs by PJ Harvey, Youth Lagoon, Lightning Dust, and more, along with a live show; and Corin’s list includes new albums by Palehound, MJ Lenderman, Black Belt Eagle Scout, and more, plus a classic Pogues album (RIP Shane MacGowan). Both of their lists include Corinne Bailey Rae. Check out the full lists below.
Sleater-Kinney are gearing up to release their new album Little Rope in January via Loma Vista, and two songs are out now, “Hell” (with a video starring Miranda July) and “Say It Like You Mean It” (with a video starring J. Smith-Cameron, aka Gerri from Succession).
Both Palehound and Black Belt Eagle Scout are also lined up to open separate legs of Sleater-Kinney’s 2024 tour. That includes NYC shows on March 13 & 14 at Brooklyn Steel and March 16 at Racket, which are all with Black Belt Eagle Scout. Tickets for those shows are still available. All dates are listed below.
