Video: Ra Ra Riot – “Can You Tell”
The official video for Ra Ra Riot’s sweet little love song “Can You Tell“. They’re an attractive bunch that band, no?
Video: J. Tillman “Firstborn”
Welcome to my first obsession of 2009.
Video: Fever Ray – “When I Grow Up”
Kudos to Stockholm Sweden’s Fever Ray for producing another extremely compelling video I can’t seem to take my eyes off of. Karin Dreijer Andersson is so Bjork. Their debut eponymous album is out now.
Vodpod videos no longer available.Too Cool for Pre-School
My little guy is home with the flu which means he gets to watch his favorite TV shows all day. And there’s nothing better than Nick Jr.’s Yo Gabba Gabba – a hipster kids TV show on acid. I’m convinced this show was created by aging hipsters for their toddlers. It’s like watching a tot-sized rave. And they feature all the cool, hip indie bands like The Ting Tings, Mates of State and The Roots. Elijah Woods made a dancing appearance too. The educational message of the program? As Yo Gabba Gabba says: “Listening and dancing to music is AWESOME! ” Dancy dance, people.
Surf City: Dickshakers Union
More lo-fi, Jesus and Mary Chain influenced music coming your way from New Zealand’s Surf City. This was my friend Jen’s pick for my annual music swap last year. Their self titled debut EP is out now on Arch Hill Recordings.
Fleet Foxes Video – Mykonos
The world is abuzz for the Fleet Foxes. In case you haven’t had enough, here’s the official video to “Mykonos.”
DM Stith – Pity Dance
DM (David) Stith is one of the anticipated break out artist for 2009. His debut EP was released on Asthmatic Kitty late last year and his first LP, Heavy Ghost, is due out March 10. “Pity Dance” is the first single and video from the album. His music is very soft and haunting and has a sound similar to Department of Eagles. David spent a year writing, arranging and recording, performing nearly all of the music on Heavy Ghost—even creating all of the album’s artwork—resulting in an intensely personal masterwork that exposes his own conflicted spirituality and his drive to find a place in which he belongs.
Take a look and a listen. Then be prepared to hear more from this gentleman who’s earned the love and support of Sufjan Stevens and My Brightest Diamond’s Shara Worden.
