Although Abbotsford was once the murder capital of Canada, within its geographical confines rests a slew of up-and-coming musical talent. For example, over the past twelve months we've seen Oh No! Yoko rise from high school band class to the top of Winnie Cooper's favorite albums of 2011. And I'm fairly certain that the Real Boys will be the next big thing to come out of the Fraser Valley. Real Boys are a rock-pop supergroup that features members from You Say Party! We Say Die!, On No! Yoko, and GSTS! Their self-titled debut EP was released in [...]
So we typically toss a video onto a post when highlighting a new band or a show preview or something and let you draw your own conclusion about it. Sometimes we throw a change-up... strike that - let's call it a round up. Most of these videos are of bands we have previously talked about here on Draw Us Lines, so we won't be telling you much about those bands themselves, just some musings that really aren't worth a damn. If a picture is worth 1000 words, then a video must be worth a million. Hold on to your hats! [...]
La Sera's video for "Real Boy/Drive On" gives a taste of two songs and two very different but equally as strange plots.
Katy Goodman of the Vivian Girls returns with her sophomore solo attempt with some lovely results. While the Vivian Girls are known for jangly garage-rock with a heavy emphasis on harmonizing, Goodman's intent as La Sera seems to be more pensive and personal. Goodman's voice floats between sounding like Jenny Lewis and Zooey Deschanel but is devoid of any flirty quirks, giving her a more concretely stable delivery. "Sees The Light" subtly provides a variety [...]
Our little honey's from Oh No! Yoko teamed up with Stephen O'Shea from You Say Party and made Real Boys . Check their Facebook for more info on a Western Canadian tour and enjoy their single " Vacation " from their self-titled EP. Real Boys - Vacation Posted by John
Here's another shot bright, punkish indie rock from Vancouver's Real Boys , who put out their self-titled, debut EP this past Tuesday. I'm not sure there's much more to say about these guys that I haven't already; when I spoke of their lead single "Vacation" a couple weeks ago, I made mention that the all-out 'fun-ness' (for lack of a better word) of the track was hopefully indicative of what we could expect across the full record. These boys certainly deliver it in spades, pairing their light-hearted spirit and energy with just the right amount of edge. [...]
Katy Goodman never ceases to amaze. Here's two videos in one from La Sera 's album Sees the Light - Real Boy/Drive On. Enjoy!
Dois em um. Assim é o vídeo divulgado por Katy Goodman em seu projeto solo, La Sera . No clipe dirigido por Travis Peteson você confere duas músicas que fazem parte donovo álbum que a cantora lança agora dia 27 de março, See the Light . A primeira parte, bem colorida e chamativa acontece em um circo. Já a segunda, referente à faixa Drive On é em preto e branco e exala uma bela vingança feminina. O conjunto é caricatual e divertido. Assista!
And the LA SERA makes one video for two of her single, REAL BOY and DRIVE ON . And then when you're done with the cutesy circus-based puppy love video meets the grindhouse noir thang you should check out me interview with the VIVIAN GIRLS.
Check out La Sera 's new video-within-a-video featuring two songs of her upcoming new album Sees The Light . The colourful " Real Boy " is about a trapeze artist's love to a brawny circus man. " Drive On " is in b/w and comes very noir grindhouse. Directed by Travis Peterson. via La Sera - Facebook
By Jon Herriot As soon as I knew some of the Oh No! Yoko guys were involved in Real Boys, I knew that this music was going to be a riot. (After typing this, I realized the first track was titled 'Shitshow'). With members of You Say Party, and GSTS, this is a British Columbia supergroup. A couple of shredding guitars lead this band, backed with some solid rhythm and bass. 'Vacation' is the one that really gets me grooving. Whoa, 'Wilderness' just [...]
In a little over a year, the San Francisco based Our House Records has assembled a team of some of the city's most exciting young and talented producer/DJ duos. Their newest release, Our House Records Volume 1, featuring a song from each of their 3 artists, proves these guys mean business. Realboy My favorite part about OHR's artists, especially Realboy, is that they aren't afraid to go deeper into music theory then dance music artists are expected to. Unlike a lot of other producers, Realboy spends just as much energy saying something [...]
It seems like for every week that I'm able to get posts up daily, there's another week where I'm lucky if I even get one up. This is one of those weeks, so you can expect posts to crop up at odds times (or not at all, in yesterday's case) and run at odd lengths. Sorry about that, but things should equalize themselves out a bit more going forward. I've also been meaning to find time to talk about how members of You Say Party , Oh No! Yoko and GSTS! have come together sometime last year to form a brand [...]
(Jayme Lang) Quick, what's the first thing you think of when you hear the words, "Abbotsford, B.C."? For me it's always been You Say Party , but I can now add Real Boys to the list. The band formed in early 2011 as a side project for lead singer Everett Morris' songwriting (Morris being a member of Abbotsford-based band Oh No! Yoko ), and from there spun forth with gusto. "Vacation" is full of big melodies, twin guitar attacks, and a crapload of sun-kissed summer fun, [...]
As I recently wrote about for Exclaim! , members of You Say Party , Oh No! Yoko and GSTS! formed a new band called Real Boys . Listen to the perky, pop rocking, rather ON!Y-sounding single "Vacation" below. VACATION - STUDIO by Real Boys
El bajista de You Say Party , Stephen O'Shea , se asoció con miembros de Oh No! Yoko y GSTS! Para formar una nueva banda llamada Real Boys ; el grupo ya tiene disponible un single, mientras en breve preparan un EP y una gira. El single es una canción pop rock llamada Vacation , y hay cuatro versiones diferentes del tema disponible en Bandcamp : una grabación de estudio, una demo rústica, una versión [...]
I was surprised to received this. When Abbotsford, BC's You Say Party! decided to call it a day, I was kind of sad to hear it. Anyways I found out that Stephen O'Shea plays in this band called Real Boys . The band is fairly brand new and recently drop their single "Vacation" which you can get on Bandcamp . Here is a info about them. Formed in April 2011 as a side project for lead [...]
If you've spent any time partying in San Francisco in the last year and you don't know who Realboy is, your idea of partying probably involves something along the lines of fruit punch and a DJ who really likes to play "Get Low." They may be the new kids on the block, but in the last year, Realboy has cemented itself as a force to be reckoned with in the Bay Area electro party scene. This year Realboy, the DJing duo made up of Austin Jacobsen and Daniel Gomez, have started their own record label, released their debut EP and [...]
Game one of the Stanley Cup Final between Vancouver Canucks and Boston Bruins begins tonight! Let's celebrate Vancouver's first Cup appearance in 17 years with this great summer song, "Vacation", by a band from BC called Real Boys . <p>&amp;lt;p&a mp;gt;&amp;amp;amp;lt; a href=" http://realboys.bandcamp.com/t rack/vacation"&amp;amp ;amp;gt;Vacation by Real Boys&amp;amp;amp;lt;/a &amp;amp;amp;gt;&a mp;amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;</ p>
