The Le Sigh Announces Vol. III Compilation Feat. Katie Dey, Emily Reo, T-Rextasy, & More
The Le Sigh is a great publication that highlights female-identifying and non-binary artists. They’ve been at it for a while now, and in 2013 and 2014, they released two compilations — Vol. I and Vol. II, naturally — that included tracks from a ton of awesome artists that would go on to be pretty big deals (or already were at the time), among them Frankie Cosmos, Girlpool, Priests, All Dogs, Mannequin Pussy, Florist, Yohuna, Slutever, and many more. Their rosters end up looking like Halls Of Fame a couple years down the line, which is why their just-announced The Le Sigh Vol. III should excite you. It contains new songs by some Stereogum already-favorites — including Katie Dey, Emily Reo, T-Rextasy, gobbinjr, Daddy Issues, Fern Mayo, Nice Try, and more — and some sure-to-be future favorites as well. It also features a song by a little band known as Cadet Kelly, which (full disclosure!) happens to be a project fronted by none other than Stereogum staffer Gabriela Tully Claymore. She’s joined by KT Pipal and Charly Bliss’ Spencer Fox. And, I’m obviously biased, but I think it fuckin’ rocks! It also happens to be the compilation’s lead single. Check it out and the full tracklist below.
