R. Thomasin

I don’t really get the whole R. Thomasin name thing, as Rachel is a perfectly lovely first name, but what do I know? I’m sure I’m missing something about what’s hip these days. R. Thomasin, just know that I would like you regardless of your name. Even if when I first glance at […]

Hannah Winkler

I was recently talking to my Canadian friends, The Wooden Sky, about the excitement of their NYC show last night at Rockwood Music Hall (after they sold out our Knox Road show at Pianos back in May!), and much to my chagrin, realized I wouldn’t be around. They have an incredibly tight and […]

New Golden Fable

Golden Fable, winning my heart since August 16, 2011. Music so precious I could hug it and it would hug back.

Church Of The Very Bright Lights

Ever wonder what the band Women would sound like…as a different band? Me neither, but now we don’t have to! Church Of The Very Bright Lights, out of Calgary, is James Cullen, backed by Chris Reimer on drums and Matt Flegel (of Women) on bass.

Church Of The Very Bright Lights recently finished […]

[MP3] The Goodbye Radio: "That's the Point"

I’m not sure if you’ve ever heard of the now-defunct band Endgames, but their former members, specifically the duo of Mike Aronow and Jeff Walsh, have created a new project called The Goodbye Radio, and have decided to release their debut album, The Year We Didn’t Have, entirely free (click on that album link!).

[MP3] Band of Horses: "Compliments"

New music from Band of Horses! It’s the first single off the upcoming Infinite Arms…and it has random nature visuals (?) to accompany it. Also, thoughts about the new song? I’m not really a fan.
