Matt Lowell – Swan Lake Released back in March (and totally missed by me) is Matt Lowell’s new EP, Swan Lake. Swan Lake is co-written with Dead Oceans Recording artist John Vanderslice and produced by Joel Hamilton (Black Keys, Matisyahu, Sparklehorse). In addition to Vanderslice and Hamilton, Minna Choi the arranger of the indie Magik*Magik Orchestra was added to create orchestrations and complex arrangements that are completely gorgeous and lush. Its a great EP that show’s off the Berklee grad’s solid songwriting and matured musicianship all in one nice little package especially for the free pricetag he’s got on his…

Dastardly – Villain Chicago based Dastardly brings their mix of folk rock & western roots style (expect banjos, mandolins accordions and lap steel) to Jamaica Plain’s Milky Way Lounge. Part of their east coast tour their fantastic mix of traveling troupe folk, & old western sounds will have us bouncing all night long. Their critically acclaimed 2010 release ‘May You Never,’ shows off the bands warm, rich sounds that seem to be endlessly influenced from folk to punk (exercises in self loathing could be a thermals song). By the record, this band seems to toil in the world of 30’s…

Pepper Rabbit – ‘Rose Mary Stretch’
Pepper Rabbit had recently announced the upcoming release of their upcoming album Red Velvet Snow Ball which is releasing this August. They are releasing their first track, ‘Rose Mary Stretch’ an experimental yet very melodious use of multiple instruments, drums, keys, guitars, clapping and one that I’m very excited to hear. I like the use of the keys / organs to soften the feel of the music. I’ve already worn out the mp3 on this one.
Pepper Rabbit is also touring like mad w/ Callers & BRAIDS
Leave a CommentPeter Wolf Crier – Right Away Peter Wolf Crier’s second album, Garden of Arms, will be released on September 6 on Jagjaguwar. This album will follow up Inter-Be their 2010 debut. Their first single off the upcoming album is Right Away, a song composed of multiple instruments played at various speeds and directions, it gives it a experimental, almost dream like state. It’s very reminiscent of early Menomena sounds and is a bit of a change from the indie folk debut. It’s an interesting endeavor and it certainly piques my curiosity.
Leave a CommentPoppy, exuberant, and really catchy, AB & the Sea released a new video today for their brand new single ‘In the Sunshine.’ I have been following these midwestern turned west coasters for a while now, they keep pounding out really catchy melodious tracks. This is the most pop-accessible I’ve heard from them, which usually deters me, but go ahead and give it a spin. It’s hard to turn it off. More AB & the Sea

How To Dress Well) by VagrantRecords Active Child’s new single “Playing House” featuring How to Dress Well has was released tuesday, announcement of an Aug. 23 release for his debut full-length album You Are All I See. The track is a synth pop R&B track that is really damn smooth and a nice foray into original music from the remixing he usually does. Give’r a listen.
Leave a CommentCheck out the video Other Lives’ For 12 a surreal sounding song off of their recently released album ‘Tamer Animals.’ When I originally heard the song, it seemed as though it would be something very cinematic and fantastical. But the visuals I saw in my head were deep wooded area with the band gently playing the song… and this space odyssey is not at all that. But it strangely fits the song. Tamer Animals is one fantastic and beautiful album that you’ve got to hear (especially fans of Bon Iver and Fleet Foxes).
