"Let’s Make Love and Listen to Death From Above" by CSS

What’s the point of hearing great music all weekend if I don’t get to share it with everyone! Stay tuned this week for my top 5 sets of Coachella 2007.
I gotta start with CSS. They were the band I was probably mist excited to see and they did not disappoint. I worried that my brother […]

"Thou Shalt Always Kill" by Dan Le Sac vs Scroobius Pip

I swear everyone is talking about this song. I must admit I’m guilty of one of the things he talks about: “Thou shalt not stop liking a band just because they become popular.” I think it’s one of those things that you laugh at yourself about. I mean, I’m getting better. I still like Maroon […]

"All I Want From You Is Love" by Let’s Go Sailing

This girl had two songs on Grey’s Anatomy a month ago… in one episode. That’s a pretty big accomplishment nowadays. She was also Spin.com’s band of the day yesterday. And anyone who collaborates with a Pickup is ok in my book. Nice, chill music… listen for yourself.
Let’s Go Sailing - All I Want From You […]

"Going To A Town" by Rufus Wainwright

AAAHHH!!! A video to fuel my obsession with this song (seriously, I play it every morning when I wake up…)

"I Swam With The Otter" by Box Codax

I finally have an excuse to post this video. It popped up a week or so ago and is amazingly adorable. The song is by Box Codax a.k.a. Franz Ferdinand’s Nick McCarthy NOT a.k.a. Mr. Rogers (although your ears may deceive you). Apparently he wrote this song before the video? Makes the sync even cooler… […]

"Out of Control" by Kenna

I don’t know that this guy is really gonna do anything in the music business… Apparently he’s been around forever, tons of deals (currently on Star Trak), no hits… But this is a GREAT song. They play it on indie a lot and I always love it everytime I hear it. The first time I […]

"Sea Legs" by The Shins

Soooo… saw the Shins last night. Great show. Not as blown away as I thought I’d be, but I also realized I’m not the Shins fan I thought I was. I didn’t really know half the songs and my brother knew every single one. I didn’t know if they played any covers… apparently they played […]
