Rose Polenzani’s New Album: August
A collection of intimate, misfit home recordings.
![]()
That’s how Rose Polenzani describes her new album, “August” that she’s self-releasing on October 7th. Pre-orders on her website are happily accepted for $12. I’ve been listening to Rose’s music since 1999 and I still haven’t figured out a quick, witty description. Singer/songwriter? Experimental folk? Excellent storyteller? All of the above?
Rose has a bunch of shows coming up throughout the month of October in New England and the Midwest with one of her favorite musicians, Sharon Lewis of the (now defunct) band Pooka from England.

Camper Van Beethoven’s New Album: New Roman Times
I was just listening to Camper Van Beeethoven’s new album “New Roman Times” compliments of the little package that arrived in the mail today from Vanguard Records. It hits the streets on October 12th. And it’s good stuff. Very good stuff. Isn’t it hard to believe this is their first album in 15 years? CVB will be at the Middle East (downstairs) on October 16th. You can preview the album as they unveil a song a week on the Vanguard website.
I think they should play a show at Cynthia Von Buhler’s CVB Space in New York City. CVB at CVB!
