FYI, Neko Case's new album, "Fox Confessor Brings the Flood", is due out March 7. Her tour begins on March 17, with stops in Boston (at the Roxy) on April 5, DC on April 9 (at the 9:30 Club), Atlanta's Variety Playhouse on April 14, and Memphis on April 15.

She'll be on the Tonight Show on March 9.

An early review of the album gives it four and a half stars, which is the same as they gave a year ago to U2's "How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb".
