It's almost hard to believe that it is summer here in northern California and the Pacific Northwest, because it has been unusually cool, and even rained (which almost never happens in the Bay Area during summer). One of the best things about summer is taking trips to the beach. We're blessed with being only a [...] Read more, get songs or stream the entire mix on Indie Rock Cafe
It's almost hard to believe that it is summer here in northern California and the Pacific Northwest over the past week. But the unusually cooler temperatures, and even rain (which is almost non-existent in California in summer). Nevertheless, the rest of the country is enjoying the summer, and it'll soon be returning to these parts. [...] Read more, get songs or stream the entire mix on Indie Rock Cafe

in der unregelmäßigen runde "eine kleine labelkunde" beehrt uns heute mt. fuji records . hinsichtlich der lokalität hätte mancher ohne frage eine idee, wohin er das seit 2005 existierende kleinstunternehmen hinstecken soll, würde aber garantiert mit seiner annahme auch baden gehen. denn stationiert ist mt. fuji in seattle, die inspiration für den namen jedoch entstammt einem restaurant mit japanischer küche. des labels angenommen hatte sich michael jaworski. schon im februar des selben jahres brachte er das erste album heraus, das debut von little brazil, einer band aus omaha. schnell folgten eine ep und ein album jaworskis eigener band, the [...]

I must apologize for the amount of time I spent transcribing this interview, but this found itself to be one of the most difficult transcriptions I have ever done and I contemplated not bothering. However, Little Brazil is a fantastic band and there were some really great answers provided in this interview that I couldn't allow it to just get buried. At this point, I'm sure you're wondering what happened. Little Brazil 's guitarist Greg Edds and I left the venue in search of a quiet spot to conduct [...]
Little Brazil has no shortage of energy on this album. And no shortage of melody, either. Several similarities come to mind when hearing this record like Nada Surf and Death Cab For Cutie. And even Interpol on the opening guitar parts of "Wasting Time" and "Perfection". "Separated" could easily be mistaken for The Shins. But despite [...]

Putting out an album is like having a baby. So for Omaha indie rockers, Little Brazil , it simply makes sense that when you put out an album called Son , that you treat your CD release show as if it were a baby shower. Little Brazil transformed the dark bar that was hosting their concert into a party complete with balloons and a blow up stork. They handed out confetti poppers to the audience to use when their set started. Though the new album deals with some heavy and dark issues like separation and suicide, the atmosphere [...]

We got some new indie from Omaha. Little Brazil just rolled out their 3rd album called SON . It's a fat helping of loud indie rockin' with band head Landon Hedges who started solo after Desaparacidos with Conor Oberst. They remind me of the Killers mixed with Nada Surf with a ton of dancing and melodic hook ups. The songs are a lot of fun. Definitely check the dates for their current tour here . You can pick up SON here . [...]

I'd heard of Little Brazil a little while back, but I just overlooked them for whatever reason. But I got an email about the band yesterday including this quote: [Little Brazil's new album] Son sounds like if Josh Caterer from Smoking Popes listened to a shit-ton of Cursive , the Promise Ring and Hey Mercedes and decided to crank the amps to about 13 or 14 without losing lyrical sincerity. When I glanced over that little tidbit, [...]

Billings, Montana isn't really known for its booming music scene (or for much of anything else really), but believe it or not there are some quality acts coming from that area. I give you 1090 Club , a band whose gritty western rock shines through their latest release, Natural Selection. The band has emerged as true artists in the zero-boundary sense: cinematic storytellers whose latest album comes together in an essential whole. Their jaw-dropping performances on the record make you yearn for the chance to experience their energy up close and in person. To see 1090 Club [...]
