Becoming one of my most listened to bands after watching this video a few months back, Hey Rosetta!, the Canadian troupe led by Tim Baker on vocals, is touring all over the Northeast with Sarah Harmer. So get yourselves out to see them! (Tour dates after the jump.)
It’s orchestral, sprawling indie pop/folk at it’s finest, very much in the Knox Road vein (well, MY vein… if you ever listened to our old radio show, you’d know Jamie and I have differing interests on the matter. All in good fun, though! We do share each other’s tastes quite often.).
Speaking of radio shows, I’m gonna give us a quick plug (I know, so shameless): we were recently featured on Hype Machine Radio – check it out here and learn about the origins of KR and our views on the blog in general. Big thanks to Hype Machine’s Dev for giving us the great opportunity to be part of the show.
Catch a recently released mp3, from this video recorded live at SXSW, along with an older gem below.

Stirring, raw piano rendition of the mega-popular song. Marina’s having a hard time doing much wrong in my book (plus her book – nice publicity stunt).
Do I need to write more here? Does it matter? Will you read my writing? How much can I describe a song, much less a cover, without getting […]
Well, this is nice. Scottish post-rock juggernauts Mogwai are set to release a new live CD/DVD on August 20. DVD’s titled Burning, and the CD is Special Moves. The recorded shows in question are from the band’s three-night residency this past April at the Music Hall of Williamsburg in Brooklyn, N.Y. and were co-recorded […]
One of my favorite new artists (as you well know), Milly Beau, recently took to the Gibson Guitar Showcase in NYC to perform stripped down versions of several old and new songs, along with a cover of The Flaming Lips’s “Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots”. Below you’ll find a video of the cover, as […]
Oh my god, you guys, new Nirvana! I was looking for a recent press photo, but couldn’t find a good one. Don’t worry, I’ll keep looking. There’s gotta be a new one out there!
Anyway, this is an unreleased version of “Scoff,” which comes with the upcoming deluxe reissue of Bleach. It’s really good […]
After gaining a tremendous amount of hype around their recent LP, Bitte Orca, Dirty Projectors have announced a North American tour! It’s set for this fall and kicks off in our neck of the woods (Baltimore)! The group has been stunning the world of music with their latest material, so this tour has […]
Anathallo – “Dokkoise House (With Face Covered)” [MP3] (from Floating World)
Rejoice, English majors! At the Newport Folk Festival, The Decemberists played two new songs live, and they sound less like that totally out of date prog rock and more like The Decemberists. The Decemberists with a harmonica, I guess, which is cool even though “Down by the Water” (estimated title) sounds kind of […]
After teasing us North Americans with UK tour dates, Doves have finally announced a set of U.S. and Canadian shows. The band is preparing the release of their latest album, Kingdom of Rust, and there will probably be loads of cuts from it played live.
Oh hey look! They’re coming to […]
