What better way to round out the holiday season and kick off the new year than to launch Kick Kick Snare's first mixtape of 2012. Yes, it's that bloody good time of the month. And just because I said that with a British accent doesn't mean we're crass or putting on airs...for it really is an awesome time for me every month to see the handpicked collection of songs selected by our four writers in four different cities. I always love seeing the variety between Kent, Wes, Ed and me. For the five months or so [...]
Little Tybee made some huge strides in 2011, garnering some national attention with the release of their finest effort, Humorous to Bees , and by producing some really fantastic music videos to accompany the band's orchestral pop grandeur. But where Little Tybee really shined this year was in the live arena where audiences could witness firsthand the group's incredible musicianship and the depth of talent that goes into crafting their exceedingly charming and radiant music. This year's Atlanta Music Roundtable was fortunate enough to have Little Tybee headline our year-end show at the [...]
In a sea of same-old same-old videos, Little Tybee's artistic "Boxcar Fair" stands out from the crowd.
Spirits and the Melchizedec Children, New Animal, Little Tybee, Today the Moon Tomorrow the Sun. One place. One price. Tonight at the Earl. Be There.
This year I had much greater difficulty putting together a list of my favorite local albums than I did a non-local list. And that makes me proud. Not proud for myself, of course, but of this city and the wealth of musical talent it produces. There were more genuinely great local albums produced in 2011 than I can ever remember in my eight years living here, and narrowing them all down to a reasonable number proved to be a much more arduous task than I ever could have thought. And yet, here we are. The caveats and criteria [...]
It wasn't that long ago that I was wondering aloud about whether or not this list was relevant or necessary, or whether it even had enough quality content to support it. But like a lot of things in life, you have to look back to get the whole story. As I began digging through old posts in search of viable candidates, it quickly became clear that the issue wasn't whether or not there were going to be enough qualified entrants, but how I was going to be able to cull the list down to a final ten. I've [...]
This is not your typical music video. It took 6 months of work building this set, it stars hand-carved puppets, and it was shot all in one take. Check over the full story at Kickstarter . The concept is as follows: "Boxcar Fair" follows a wandering explorer who stumbles upon a magical fair in the middle of a desert. The piece was created by Brock Scott and artist Tom Haney for the band Little Tybee.
Back in 2009, I listened to approximately 75 records that came out of Atlanta that year. This year, I blogged about roughly 75 records, and for every album I discussed, there were at least five I listened to and didn't blog about. The quantity of music being made in this city is growing exponentially, and the Atlanta music scene runs extraordinarily deep. So needless to say, this was the most difficult year-end list to put together yet. On a technical note, my 2011 year-end list eligibility extends through the 2010 holiday season because I like to be [...]

Now that this blog only covers local music, I decided that all of my year-end lists this year will be Atlanta music specific. There's plenty of sites that do national/international lists anyway. So then, this is my 40 favourite songs of the year by artists affiliated with Atlanta. I spent a lot of time with each of these songs, and if you are unfamiliar with any of them, I strongly suggest you click on the song titles below to give them a listen. 40. "Black Leaves" by [...]
After running a successful kickstarter project that raised around $11,000, Little Tybee have released their video for "Boxcar Fair." Featuring a puppet who stumbles upon a magical fair in the desert, "Boxcar Fair" is an impressive showing of artistry. What is most impressive is the fact that the video was shot in one take with no edits! According to Paper Garden Records , Little Tybee will have a new LP that is set to be released some time in March 2012! <embed height="350" width="425" src=" http://widgets.vodpod.com/w/vi deo_embed/Video.15762909" flashvars="" wmode="transparent" [...]
This video is simply stunning. Beautiful. Wow! Kudos to all involved: Brock Scott, Tom Haney, Little Tybee, Center for Puppetry Arts and all the others. Again, wow!

The second phenomenal local music video in as many days (following yesterday's posting of the Back Pockets' wonderful "Break Up Song" vid) comes courtesy of local chamber pop outfit Little Tybee , and, Jesus Christmas, is this thing gorgeous. Created and directed by Brock Scott and artist Tom Haney, "Boxcar Fair" was shot entirely in one take without any cuts or edits whatsoever using a team of skilled puppeteers to bring the video's mesmerizing magical sequences to life. I've been racking my brain for a good bit trying to come up with something clever to [...]
