Get on board. Kurt Vile will be playing San Francisco this Wednesday, October 21, at The Hemlock promoting his new album, Childish Prodigy, with Wooden Shjips (no that’s not a typo).

Lightning Dust – “Never Seen”
I’m really enjoying this album right now from Lightning Dust, Infinite Light, a side project of some members of Black Mountain. Amber Webber’s ethereal, haunting voice is mesmerizing. Enjoy!
The Dead Weather – “I Cut Like A Buffalo” [Video]
Ty Segall Fest
I’ve been a wee bit obsessed over Ty Segall’s latest album, Lemons. He’s a San Francisco garage rock gem. Enjoy these videos and be sure to check out the album.
The Dodos – “Fables”
Here’s the video for “Fables” – the first single from the new The Dodos album out now, Time To Die. The Dodos and The Ruby Suns are lined up to play Bimbos on October 29.
J. Tillman – “Though I Have Wronged You” + “Barter Blues”
I’ve been meaning to post this live footage of J. Tillman at Cafe du Nord recently performing a track from his latest album “Though I Have Wronged You” and one of my favorites from Vacalindo Territory Blues, “Barter Blues” for a while now. This show was the quintessential ‘slow jam’. I just love the way they roll into ‘Barter Blues’ during the set, and the pedal guitar playing….awww, it’s like religion. Watch it through to see J. Tillman worship it.
Fanfarlo – “The Walls Are Coming Down”
The latest release from London-based Fanfarlo, “Reservoir“, might well be one of the sleeper albums of 2009. This is the video for their second single, “The Walls Are Coming Down”. Their look is very ‘Dexy’s Midnight Runners’ here.
Fanfarlo plays San Francisco’s Popscene on September 17.
Grizzly Bear – “While You Wait For The Others”
Girls – “Lust for Life” Video
‘Lust for Life’ is the latest video from San Francisco’s Girls, whose latest release – confusingly entitled ‘Album‘ out September 22 – officially makes them next to impossible to Google. Don’t miss Girls perform this Wednesday at Great American Music Hall with Papercuts and Cass McCombs!
JEFF the Brotherhood – “Bone Jam”
JEFF the Brotherhood – “Bone Jam”
Jeffro Tull. I like this guy’s style and this video. This song is the first single off of JEFF the Brotherhood’s “Heavy Days” album, due out October 13. The Nashville-based group is known for their uncontrolled live show and “we’ll play anywhere” attitude. So if that’s got you curious, be sure to check them out tonight at 21 Grams in Oakland.
