So I wrote about this band after seeing them at SXSW. They were great and I became obsessed with trying to find their song “She’s Expensive” online to download. It is still nowhere to be found. I’ll probably have to be a goody two shoes and wait til the album is released on June […]

I heard this on the radio today and it gave me goose bumps. Even after listening to it a bajillion times on the CD, it’s still such an amazing song to me. I’m SO glad it’s the next single. Here’s a nice live video of it with a peek backstage:

I’ve had an interesting relationship with Interpol over the years. If you remember, I walked away from their set at Coachella last year unamused. Then they released the first single, “Heinrich Maneuver” off of Our Love To Admire and I actually liked it! But it was “Rest My Chemistry” that sealed the deal. Now there […]

The London Souls sounds like they’re from another place and time. A time when music sounded goooood. Last night, my friend Steve told me to check out this band. He did so after complementing a couple of other artists I had already posted. He’s smart I actually did check them out and like what […]

I really don’t know why this band gets so much flack. Whenever I tell people that I love Phantom Planet, I get the weirdest look. I think that O.C. theme song thing didn’t help much, but obviously nobody has seen them live! And have you listened to their self titled album? Kind of hard to […]

These Brits nabbed the NME cover and rightfully so. This song is a great one. Thus adding to the list of reasons why I should move to the UK. Someday… Anyhow, I suggest listening to this with the volume turned way up. You will enjoy, I promise. The Courteeners‘ album St. Jude has been out […]

I’ve been lucky enough to sit with the new Kooks’ album Konk for the past couple weeks. This song was my favorite live and is still probably my favorite song off the CD. I looooooove that little riff after the chorus. Love it. Here’s the song and a video of it being played live…

You need […]

For some reason, this year has been all about the girl singers. I used to be anti-girl singer-songwriters (very un-feminist, I know), but some people have been working hard to change my mind. In the straight up female and her guitar/piano category we have Ingrid Michaelson, Sara Bareilles, and Feist. Yep, like all of them! […]

F*ck. Yeah. I love this band and always will. I went to their show at the Troubadour last night not knowing what to expect. The last time I saw these guys live was at the Wiltern and it was craaaaaazy. Craig could barely sing, he was rolling around on the ground, and he threw his […]

Could I really post anything other than this song after the show I saw at the Echo last night? Not really. A-ma-zing. This girl is a fucking star. Excuse my language, but she is. And the band sounds unbelievably good. They just released their 2nd album, Neptune, last month. If you missed the first album, […]
