So What?s Up With The Black Swans?
Almost one year ago, The Black Swans kept a tour diary on donewaiting.com that was full of ups and downs. It was a great, honest, eye opening account of an independent band trying to make it on their own without a huge promotional budget working their music. Things are gearing up for what seems to be the bands biggest release. In November, the band will put out their second album, Change!, on La Société Expéditionnaire via CD and vinyl. Theyve also got a ton of shows lined up for the fall, including a CMJ showcase. Jerry was able to get a lot of press by himself for his last EP (Pitchfork, Harp, Stylus, Prefix), so itll be interesting to see what will happen now that hes on a label and has PR people, etc etc. Heres a song from the upcoming album: MP3: Change 9/7/07 - Columbus, OH - Andymans Treehouse 9/20/07 - Athens, OH - Casa Cantina 9/21/07 - Columbus, OH - Cafe Bourbon St. 9/29/07 - Nashville, TN - Grimeys Fall Party 10/16/07 - Washington, DC - The Red and The Black 10/17/07 - Brooklyn, NY - Union Pool - La Société Expéditionnaire über-official CMJ showcase 10/18/07 - Brooklyn, NY - Sound Fix Records - w/Lewis  Clarke and La-Soc friends 10/19/07 - Brooklyn, NY - Petes Candy Store - w/ Grassroots Record Co. friends 10/20/07 - Scranton, PA - Test Pattern - w/ Lewis  Clarke, Grassroots Record Co. friends 10/26/07 - Columbus, OH - Surly Girl - Record Release Show w/ Bird and Flower 11/2/07 - Columbus, OH - Yeah, Me Too Coffee Shop - Change!

The new service lets AT&T customers preview and purchase music directly from their handsets, with access to an estimated catalog of 2.7 million OTA (over-the-air) tracks. That makes it the largest wireless music catalog available, according to eMusic. Once a subscriber purchases a song, it’s downloaded directly to the cell phone. Meanwhile, a duplicate copy is also available for downloading to a user’s PC later on.

The announcement also marks the first time AT&T is offering an over-the-air music download service. Its existing AT&T Mobile Music (formerly Cingular Music ) service let users purchase music online from Yahoo! or Napster, download the files to their PCs, and then “side-load” them to compatible AT&T handsets.

However, there’s a twist: with the new eMusic Mobile service, users don’t buy tracks on an individual basis. They also don’t subscribe to the service and rent access to the entire catalog, a la Napster-To-Go. Instead, the eMusic Mobile service charges $7.49 per month for a subscription; once subscribed, a user can download any five DRM-free tracks in MP3 format from the full catalog.
