You are now listening to the wondrous sound of one of the most impassioned people to ever pick up a musical instrument and put it to use. Drew Danburry , a singer-songwriter who's got soul if you need some, grew up in southern California and first made a name for himself doing hilarious, kilter-less gangster rap songs under the moniker White Chocolate (he's still trying to shake that whole thing off, we're sure) complete with instrumental back-up like organs and acoustic guitars. After all of that, Danburry proceeded to get down to business with DIY tours with just a [...]

Portland has the fertile soil and the ability to grow the perfect indie rock band. Their latest crop includes the breathy, delicate sounds of Jasmine Ash and Oh Darling . Oh Darling are Jasmine Ash on vocals and keyboards, J.Marie Hall on bass, DavenHall on guitar, and Jake Endicott on Drums. Playing music for years and their immediate chemistry allowed Oh Darling to come to fruition. It began with a conversation of the idea to write and play music together between Jasmine and J.Marie at a wedding. It sounds so simple and the results seem so pure. Recently signed [...]

Des fois c'est tout con mais y a des petites attentions qui font plaisir, qui donnent envie de s'intéresser, pas comme les mails du genre "on est méga trop fort, on a joué avec machin ou truc et on va révolutionner la musique" ou encore " voila mon myspace, chroniquez moi" (vous remarquerez l'absence de bonjour, au revoir) Drew Danburry dont j'avais parlé d'un concert... jadis .. (ouais ca fait aussi longtemps que ça) m'a donc écrit un mail tout sympa pour me proposer sa toute dernière chanson. Comme il se trouve qu'entre [...]
Stephen Malkmus & the Jicks - "the mic checking song/godzilla (live on Fair Game)" . "You're a natural, kid. I mean it. You could sell ice to Eskimos. You could sell floodwater to New Orleanians. I'm not joking. I'm not exaggerating. You got it. You got it . You could sing the phonebook and they'd clap along. It's in the swagger of your vowels, the lope of your tongue. Something magic in the syllables you select and the way they roll outta your mouth. It's like hearing a ball through a basketball hoop, a shirt getting pulled up over [...]
Drew Danburry - "I'm Pretty Sure This Is Someone Else's Song, But I Couldn't Figure Out Whose So I'm Keeping It!" Evidently Drew Danburry doesn't know where this song is from. I don't recognize it but it does remind me of a few familiar ditties. The song of chestnuts falling, for instance, or the melody whistled as guy-in-apron pulls the chestnuts from the oven. The song you sang when winter became spring and then receded back into winter, but still it's a nice day. When your bicycle's suddenly working ok again, or when you bump into your friend on [...]
Brigham Young University isn't well know for it's music scene, actually it sucks. Utah as a whole really isnt that great for the whole indie scene, well as least thats the mindset I had moving to Happy Valley. One day i was wearing my 'Come On Feel The Illinoise' tshirt, and one kind gentleman recommended that I listen to Drew Danburry, a student at Brigham Young University. So i went home and purchased both of his albums, and i have been tantilized ever since. Drew Danburry just makes cool music, using different styles between songs, especially [...]
