* Brendan Benson's got a new non-Raconteurs album on the way (My Old Familiar Friend, out Aug. 18 on ATO), and MBV has an MP3 for you, "Feel Like Taking You Home," in which the phrase from the title doesn't seem to mean what it usually means in rock songs, unless I'm just reading too much into that. (Via MBV.)

* The Big Surprise Tour, featuring Old Crow Medicine Show, Dave Rawlings Machine (featuring Gillian Welch), The Felice Brothers and Justin Townes Earle, comes to Riverfront Park August 13. Presale started this morning; use password: tnpusher.

* The Champion and His Burning Flame release Song & Film, the song part. (Via WOTT.)
