Song Picks of the Week

Hazey by Glass Animals is just perfect for a Monday afternoon on the brink of a thunderstorm. It’s a chill and lush song, with a tropical feel to it and our Song Pick of Monday. Meg Remy aka U.S. Girls goes to D.C. for her video Damn The Valley. Not[…]

3 Is A Band: Little May

Little May are a three piece band from Sydney, Australia comprised of Liz Drummond (vocals, rhythm guitar), Hannah Field (vocals) and Annie Hamilton (lead guitar, vocals).  What immediately got my attention, when listening to Little May was how much they remind me of Warpaint, the Californian all-female band with members hailing from[…]

THROWBACK: Heaven 17 – The Luxury Gap

In my opinion, The Luxury Gap by Heaven 17 is one of the best albums if the 80s. It’s not timeless, it’s clearly rooted in the decade, but it one hooky track after the other, hitting exactly the sweet spot between accessible and experimental. That makes it a great listen[…]

PHOTOS: Highly Suspect live at SXSW 2015

Keeping a favorite for last… while our South By Southwest coverage ended about two weeks ago, there’s still a band left, I wrote about before but wanted to cover as well: Highly Suspect – a pretty awesome three piece from Cape Cod and if not touring, currently residing in Brooklyn but touring they do! Not only are[…]

MUSIC BUZZ: Bully // Torres // Emika // More

The Nashville band Bully is preparing a highly anticipated release this June and front woman Alicia Bognanno visited our favorite record store Rough Trade to select some records (apparently she didn’t have to buy them in the end). It’s finally here: since SXSW Elke and I have been anticipating Mackenzie[…]
