New Music: The Hold Steady: Various Songs (Live on KEXP)Last week the Hold Steady played live for KEXP's podcast. The set list included "Stuck Between Stations", "Massive Nights", "Chips Ahoy!", Separation Sunday's "Your Little Hoodrat Friend", and "You Can Make Him Like You", and there's also some interview chit-chat (but not too much). The set sounds awesome-- I know it had me heading over to the shelf looking for Boys and Girls in America. A new album is coming in the spring or summer of 2008, Craig Finn says at the end of the segment.
