SxSW 2012 Day 1 And It Begins... One would think that after waking up absurdly early and spending half a day in airports, the energy level of our blogging and photo-taking heroes would be low - but this is Austin and the air here is just a little sweeter this time a year and the music is just plain intoxicating... In what could have been the most perfect Day 1 of SxSW Music ever experienced, we set out into the night... [...]

Harriet performs at this year's SXSW and will probably garner the attention of music lovers seeking a delightful change of pace.

As if the world of producing is not filled with enough DAW already, we are excited about the new up and coming DAW called Live 9 Bitwig Studio . We were a bit skeptical when we first found out since it is coming from a company we've never heard before. But we're pretty much sold when we saw the demo - the interface is pretty and looks well-laid-out. Yet at the same time looks very, very Live-ish in many ways, which brings us to the next point. [...]

Harriet arrived with a bang in November with the kiss-off song-cum-playground taunt "I Slept With All Your Mothers," the centerpiece of the quartet's "Tell the Right Story" EP. Frontman Alex Casnoff, who'd played keyboards in the bands Dawes and PAPA, sounded as if he had relationships issues, but it turns out that, like any good storyteller, Casnoff's first foray into songwriting channeled a lot of stories, only some of them his own. ||| Download: "I Slept With All Your Mothers" [...]

I put this together for my brother a few months ago as a running/exercise companion. Since then, I've listened to it quite a few times on my runs, and quite simply, it pretty much kicks ass. So download, throw it on your iPod/iPhone/SmartPhone of choice, and move ! (Or, sit back in a La-Z-Boy with a strong cocktail. You do what you want, I'm not your daddy).

In the most recent edition of The Voice Project, an ongoing project employing covers from indie artists to raise money and awareness for the plight of women in Uganda and Central Africa, Cillie Barnes invited cameras into her home to record her singing an interpretation of the song "Million Dollar Bill" by fellow LA folkies Dawes. Barnes, the musical moniker of Vanessa Jeanne Long, teamed up with Joe Keefe on acoustic guitar for the cover, which mostly follows Taylor Goldsmith's original composition, except for a few glaring changes. While the guitar part and even Barnes' vocal style reflect the simple, [...]

I first saw this card and started thinking of all the other lyrics that would be appropriate for cards for the indie music lover in your life. Of course there are an infinite number of options and these were what came first. I hit a wall while browsing the more extensive discographies of bands like Wilco, Elliot Smith, and Ryan Adams. In some cases the lyrics are grossly out of context and may be found in a heartbreak kind of song. Sometimes that one sweet line has a way of standing out above the real meaning of the song. This [...]
