The Sadies
Backing band to the stars The Sadies have recorded a song with Neil Young and they’re going on tour with him, too. But the band haven’t really had a chance to actually talk to him or hang out with him yet.

Electro rocker Peaches hasn’t forgotten, though, and Sarah spoke to her recently about the whole Pussy Riot imprisonment thing for Huffington Post Music Canada.
