Remember that kick-ass a capella rendition of "God Only Knows" that we posted as part of the first installment of our Infinite Mixtape series? Well, Petra Haden-- former Decemberist, Jack Black's sister-in-law, violinist extraordinaire, buddy to Mike Watt, and daughter of one of the most bad-ass/coked-up- looking bass players of all time-- is the woman behind it, and now she's taking her a capella show on the road for five East Coast dates. According to a press release, Haden and the Sell-Outs-- her "10-piece (nine backing vocalists + Petra), all-female choir that the former That Dog vocalist/violinist assembled to recreate her a capella tour de forces"-- begin the de force-ing tonight in Pittsburgh and end before Halloween at Buffalo's Soundlab. Expect live versions of tunes from 2005's Petra Haden Sings: The Who Sell Out, which is, yes, Haden giving the entire classic Who album the a capella treatment.
