 Carl Creighton's Brookings comes out March 22, 2014 on Mecca Lecca Recordings. Angry depressing music by and for those whose souls have been trampled--but who can still laugh about it. The record was done while Creighton lived in Minnesota but was put on the shelf. Now it is coming off the shelf. Check out and download the track, Baby Doll, free below.  together PANGEA have a new video for their track, Offer. The song is of the band's latest, Badillac. As you will notice they are also touring. Dates are below the video. The band are sort of tough to pin down musically. It has this sort of folky feel...sometimes...then it sort of rocks...then it is all about the melody. Give a listen. Tour

Let's hope this is a trend that old school soul music is on its way back. Let's pray in fact. This reminds me of the early 1970s--Stevie Wonder, Al Green, Delfonics etc. etc. Harding says that soul music and his music "speak for themselves." Yep, he's right. Chec out the track, Keep On Shining, below. Harding, from Michigan, sang back up for CeeLo Green. There have been a few other acts moving in this direction in the past few years and it is to be hoped that soon slick autotuned erzatz soul will vanish from the earth (a big dream I know). This is one to look forward to.  Potty Mouth have a new video for Black and Studs. Check it out below. The song is off the bands recently released LP, Hell Bent. Guess what? They are also touring. You can check out dates below the video. Is it indie pop ? Is it punk revivalism? I don't know. Sounds like rock n roll to me. Keep an eye open for new tour dates as well. Some will be added. Keep up to date HERE. Tour
1/31 Medford, MA - Crafts House at Tufts University 2/8 Annandale-on-Hudson, NY - Bard College 2/9 Philadelphia, PA - Kungfu Necktie 3/2 Brooklyn, NY - Baby's All Right w/ Vivian Girls 3/8 Allston, MA - Great Scott 3/14 Austin, TX - Hole In The Wall 3/9-3/16 Austin, TX - SXSW  Wake Owl have a new track, Letters, out now. The song is off the group's first album, The Private World of Paradise which coes out March 4, 2014. The LP was produced by Richard Swift of The Shins. He has also produced music for Tennis and Foxygen (one of the greatest band names ever)  The Zolas have a video out, entitled Ancient Mars. The video is inspired by events closer to home. A friend of a friend of singer Zack Gray was abducted in Los Angeles. Elisa Lam vanished and the video was inspired by the LAPD releases and a "bewildering" CCTV video. Gray didn't know Lam he saw many young women he did know in her and her story moved him.  Habibi, out of New York City, have a new eponymous LP out right now. You can check out the track, I Got The Moves, below. Its pop meets the garage with a dash of Middle Eastern music and not just because some songs are in Farsi (the name is Arabic). Regardless of influences and nationalities you can dance to it. And really? What else matters?  The 1975 have a remix of their song, Chocolate by Brighton/Guildford producer Oli Slack. Check it out below. The track, with a dreampop vibe, is a departure from the original tune (if I remember it). You can download it free below. The band, out of Manchester ranges from 60s style pop to more artsy fartsy terrain. But it all fits together, even a vaguely shoegazey remix like this. |
