Freelance Whales Miniature Tigers By Kiani Angus-Torres Multi-instrumental, orchestral, indie-pop sensation The Freelance Whales kicked off their first headlining tour to a sing-along sold out house at Maxwell's last Friday. Hailing from Queens, the five-person ensemble achieves a certain palatable extravagance, carefully layering each song with nods to all our favorite elements of recent past: banjo, [...]

I got extremely excited when I saw this video, and the song aint half bad either! This is jangly 602s inspired pop, all happy-go-lucky harmonies, sunny piano and strumming guitars. It's really quite pleasant, like a dose of serotonin on a miserable day and is a fine example of Miniature Tigers clean, psychedelic tinged musical leanings. The video makes for some nostalgically fun viewing too, have a watch - it'll make you feel a little bit happy for the rest of the day!

Editor's Note: There's really no excuse for what you're about to read and the tracks you're about to endure. But if you can't laugh at the fact that the Jonas Brothers are currently all up on Radio Free Chicago, alongside Timber Timbre and Cursive, then... Well... Personally, I laugh to keep from crying. This is what happens when I say "Of course you can make a mix for RFC, Heidi!" Brace yourselves. Okay, so being the roommate of the infamous Amber Valentine, there is never a dull moment, be it deciding to run out [...]

I'm still not sure I'll believe this until I actually see it, which I guess is probably the reaction Red Bull is hoping for with Soundclash, a series of shows that the energy-drink maker calls "the ultimate live music conversation." On Nov. 20 at some place called American Junkie in Scottsdale, Miniature Tigers are not only returning home, they're bringing the legendary Roots crew with them. That's right: Charlie Brand and Co., who just two short years ago played a show I put together at Yucca Tap Room, will collaborate [...]
Click image to download full album Sounds like: Freelance Whales, Animal Collective, Vampire Weekend "Miniature Tigers - Goldskull" What's so good? Miniature Tigers have a lot of quality elements that make up an ideal indie rock group. They've got the look, they've got the sound, and they've got Morning Benders front man Chris Chu as a producer on their recently released second full-length album, Fortress . If you're a Morning Benders fan then you've probably [...]
Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News Screaming for song requests at concerts is nothing new -- sometimes bands play into them and sometimes they don't. At Tuesday night's Miniature Tigers show at Brooklyn's Music Hall of Williamsburg, 'Lolita,' 'Japanese Woman Living in My Closet' and 'Goldskull' -- all of which are off the group's latest album, 'Fortress' -- were among those yelled by a few of the fans in attendance. Instead of playing into the crowd's [...]
One cannot live on headliners alone. RFC's having a "moment" for Miniature Tigers , who opened for The Walkmen at The Metro on Thursday, like champions. I'm sure its easy to phone in a performance for the eager half-crowd that arrives two hours early to see the main attraction. Especially when you know Japandroids are about to blow the roof off (and the eardrums out of) the place anyway. Leave it to Miniature Tigers to roll up like they own the joint, and give the crowd a lesson in indie rock [...]
![Neon Indian / Perfuse 73 / Miniature Tigers [Mezzanine, San Francisco 09.30.2010]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2897080_lg.jpg)
Neon Indian @ the Mezzanine by Rebecca Gayle To conclude the month of September, Neon Indian filled the industrial corners of the Mezzanine, an intimate venue in downtown San Francisco, with its chillwave-defining sound, breathing new life into the band's 2009 release, Psychic Chasms . Opening first for Neon Indian were indie pop-rockers, Miniature Tigers. Miniature Tigers, whose sound is much more acoustic and radio-friendly, played a fairly entertaining, but unmemorable, set. Although the quartet certainly showcased each band [...]
Miniature Tigers Daytrotter Sessions The brand new Miniature Tigers' Daytrotter Sessions is now available here .
To be expected, last night's lineup at Mezzanine was nothing short of mind-melting. Highly experimental, improv multi-instrumentalist masters, all three bands did not disappoint.

Nothing solidifies a bro bond between two bands better than a joint tour. As a unit, they toil through the monotonous schedule of playing the music, hitting another town, barely sleeping, eating Quiznos again, etc. It's a never-ending cycle similar to that of the food chain. However, the relationships that blossom on the stage are [...]

You gotta let go when they get that old, you gotta let go. 'Cause if you hold on, they'll puncture your lungs and separate your spine from your skull. You gotta let them go. Dino Damage by Miniature Tigers
