Stephen Malkmus debuts new songs at Portland show
During a Traditional Techniques show in Portland on Sunday (16 January), Stephen Malkmus debuted two new songs, and played some Pavement and Silver Jews tracks.
Malkmus released Traditional Techniques in March 2020, right before the pandemic hit, but on Sunday he played Portland's Alberta Abbey with his live band made up of The Decemberists’ Chris Funk, Brad Truax and Jake Morris.
During Sunday's show, Malkmus performed Pavement's "Father To A Sister Of Thought", Silver Jews' "Blue Arrangements", and covered Wilco's "Box Full Of Letters", and also played two new songs titled "MTV" and "Making Friends".
The two songs are yet to be released, but footage from the show has since appeared online. Skip to slide seven and eight to hear parts of the new tracks.
