CATS PURRING SPRING BREAK: DUCKTAILS + CHRIS COHEN + EMPRESS OF + MOON KING + IDIOT GLEE + CAVEMAN @ CATS PURRING DUDE RANCH 3/10/13

We're overjoyed to announce the first show at the CATS PURRING DUDE RANCH in almost a year, and the line up is pretty crazy. CATS PURRING SPRING BREAK is going down Sunday 3/10/13, which is also right before that thing going on in Austin, TX for all you road trippers. Here's who we've got on the bill:

DUCKTAILS is the project of Real Estate guitarist Matt Mondanile. Their great new album "The Flower Lane" finds Matt ditching the loopy lo-fi experimental soundscapes of his past in favor of a glossier and funkier widescreen sound with members of Big Troubles as his new bandmates.

CHRIS COHEN has played in bands ranging from Deerhoof to Haunted Graffiti to Cass Mccombs and many more. His solo debut album "Overgrown Path" on Captured Tracks is a homemade psych-pop classic, one of our favorites in recent memory.

EMPRESS OF is a relatively new project from Brooklyn's Lorely Rodriguez, a former member of Celestial Shores who has taken the internet by storm with her infectious synth-pop jammers.

MOON KING is a dreamy Canadian duo founded by Daniel Benjamin, who also plays with his brother Airick in Doldrums. Their debut E.P. "Obsession I" is not to be missed.

IDIOT GLEE is the moniker of Lexington, KY's James Friley, a charming pop wunderkind who is no stranger to Oxford, MS.

CAVEMAN is a great NYC band with a new album on the way from our friends at Fat Possum.

This party is going to start early. We're hanging out all day cooking burgers and what not. Doors are at 4pm, and the cover charge is $10, a steal for 6 bands if you ask us. BYOB, and as always, safety first at the ranch. Drinking & driving is not tolerated. Cabs are your friend. See y'all at Cats Purring Spring Break!
