Touring in support of 2009’s My Electric Family (Drag City), New Zealand’s Bachelorette (a.k.a. Annabel Alpers) not only has a US tour with Beach House to look forward to this spring, but she also has an announcement to make. It seems there have been some rumors lately that Bachelorette might be ready to settle down and get married, and then maybe have a couple of kids and move out to the ‘burbs. Not true, says Bachelorette. It seems Alpers is very happy with her band’s single status and will not be changing the name to “Bride,” “Wife,” or “Mother” anytime soon. To prove it, she’s going on a presumably free-spirited worldwide tour. Phew, a sigh of relief.
