Sarah Borges & the Broken Singles sell out...

Jeez, just look at that slick new band photo. It reeks of glossy, insincere, sex-sells pop music fluff (Binky, put a shirt on). Cool, let's hear it, guys. Album out on the 24th; already signed up for the pre-sale. Can't wait. SBBS will be at Piano's in NYC tomorrow night and at the Bank Street Cafe in New London on Saturday, March 14th.

Review - Twangville.com
First things first. The new album from Sarah Borges and The Broken Singles, The Stars Are Out (Sugar Hill) is a Rock & Roll record. The quicker we all accept that and move on, the better. The reason I implore any possibly heartbroken twangophile to quickly end their season of mourning and embrace the present is due simply to the fact that while SBBS may have temporarily amped up their rocking, they have done so without sacrificing the spark and spunk that has been a true trademark of the group’s previous releases. What we are treated to is not a modern pop-rock album of the standard variety, but a veritable tour through the previous ages of Rock & Roll, leading up to the current day and time. - complete review
