Black Fur is Shanna Kiel’s (of Sullen fame) new band out of Los Angeles. Shanna recently released a solo album called “Orphan” that she recorded in Chicago with Scott Lucas from Local H. Since recording the album she put together Black Fur and took the new songs on the road opening up some west coast shows for the The Hold Steady on most recent tour.
Shanna and Black Fur can best be compared to Courtney Love and The Distillers, it’s familar, but completely original. If you listened to her old band Sullen, then you know what you are in for. Download Sharpen The Dull (mp3) and listen to some other songs from “Orphan” as well as some new/unreleased tracks on Black Fur’s MySpace page.
Black Fur play a last minute show tomorrow (11/21) at BB King’s at the Universal City Walk, the show is all ages and Black Fur go on 10:45.
UPDATE: Black Fur have been added to the Pearls & Brass show at The Scene Bar on December 4th, they go on at 10pm, get there early.
