I don’t know what happened to me during this set at Coachella. I listened to about 2 songs and was out of there thinking “that was weird.” Maybe I don’t like their live set or maybe it was just too much sun for me that day (very likely). But “Golden Skans” is one of my […]

This sure doesn’t help things…

Vitamin Water, ladies and gentlemen. Vitamin Water.

You know, I tried to stay away. I tried so hard. And I’m starting to break down…
First off, this band is on Capitol. That sounds harsh. But honestly, they sign either a) GREAT bands who they do nothing with unless they blow up on their own (poor Redwalls) or b) big huge duds who they […]

Wow. Such a good concert. I was tired of all the nay-sayers after the Staples show, and either the band pulled themselves out of a funk or people were being overly critical because they were on at Dodger Stadium on Saturday. Opened with “Message In A Bottle” and tore through all the hits. Everyone was […]

This post is half substantiated by the talent that is Ms. Winehouse and half by my sadness that I did not get tickets on Saturday. I was so excited to sleep in that I slept through my alarm reminding me to buy tickets. Now both nights are sold out and I am like Debbie Downer […]

Now this is a Daft Punk treatment I can really get behind… It gets really crazy around the halfway mark so make sure you watch the whole thing:

That guy/girl has some serious time on their HANDS! haha I crack myself up.

I saw this video and did a total “Wait a second… That can’t be…” Oh yes it can. When I was little (like 12?) I loved this girl. She really did have some good pop songs. Who would have thought that this little pop tart would turn into a full grown indie girl. This video […]

Did I just stumble upon some music industry gossip? I went to Sam Champion’s MySpace to listen to some tunes and saw that the label says Major. Last I heard they were unsigned and riding the wave of bloggers expressing their anger towards this very fact. Well they deserve to be on a major. […]

Interesting music? Check. Folk with a twist. Seriously, don’t let the folk label scare you away. This is some good ish.
Cool label? Check. These guys are signed to Dim Mak.
Great summer tour? Check. Touring with Oh No! Oh My!, Let’s Go Sailing, Hot Hot Heat and just finishing up a residency at Spaceland.
I’m randomly connected […]

I’ve heard an awful lot about this little Silverlake band. I was expecting to be blown away when I went to their MySpace. Not blown away, I wish the songs were a little more hard hitting, but they’re still pleasant to listen to. I’d like to see how they are live so I may have […]
