From last.fm:

The Blow is Khaela Maricich, from Portland, Oregon. The band was a duo until Jona Bechtolt left to pursue his own project, YACHT, full time. The two had been working together as The Blow since 2004, when they recorded a limited edition EP called Poor Aim: Love Songs. "Blow" is also the name of a Melbourne-based jazz group which Last.fm automatically scrobbles as "The Blow". Read more about The Blow on Last.fm.
