We might have to change our name to Denton Sound if that little North Texas music mecca keeps sending us such good mp3s. (Just kidding, we’re way too snobby about the Austin music scene to even think anywhere else might compete). Still, the debut full-length from Sarah Jaffe, called Suburban Nature, is quite an album, building off of her excellent Even Born Again EP that garnered the young songwriter well-deserved praise across the board a couple of years ago. She will be officially releasing the album this weekend in Austin with a show at the Parish on Saturday, and a Waterloo Records instore on Sunday. Then she’s apparently going on a west coast tour with Lou Barlow, which is obviously awesome, but also a little strange seeing as how she was just on tour with Norah Jones? That’s a pretty big difference, though maybe we can just say that it testifies to her amazingly broad reach and cross cultural appeal. Or something. Anyway, download the new song “Clementine” below.

So excellent. My advice is get to the Parish early on Saturday. The band that’s opening the terrific Sarah is the equally terrific Seryn. They are not to be missed.
