Singer-songwriter Lily Seabird announced last week that she has signed with Philadelphia independent label Lame-O Records. The Burlington-based Seabird has been busy in 2024, playing with fellow Queen City musician Greg Freeman and Vermont indie rocker Lutalo, but the Lame-O news includes some exciting updates for her own catalog. On November 15, the label will rerelease Seabird's gorgeous 2024 album Alas on vinyl, along with an EP featuring acoustic versions of the songs on the record and several new tracks. In her review of Alas for Seven Days, Nina Sablan wrote that the album "shows us Seabird digging into her psyche until she grasps something vulnerable, raw and ultimately healing."

The band is set to debut the music video live at the Double E Performance Center in Essex this Friday, October 18. Alongside a live performance and a screening of the video, the husband-and-wife team will also perform an original short play, which tells the tale of how "Cult Life" was created. "We're turning our band into a movement," Taraleigh said in a press release for the event. "And this play shows just how far we've come — and how much we've lost our minds!" Jam outfit the Moondogs, who released the live album Nectar's 12.16.23 in the spring, are preparing to drop a brand new LP on November 8, titled Trialogues.
