Not quite Rilo Kiley , but I get the picture. Lions At Your Door from Sydney, Australia came knocking on my door a coupla days back with a rather pretty track. Bounce-y indie pop, mellow pianos, throw in a crying violin and a rousing crescendo. Needs to be mixed a bit more, this track just missed that anthemic height. It is lovely otherwise. They've got a national tour coming up, so all you folks down under, if you've got the chance, check out their tour dates on their myspace. [ Lions At Your [...]

So, if you need a little more Summer in your day... or, you're just a fan of four chords, power pop, and sunshine... Why not check it out ? No related posts.
I'm Having Fun Now is the debut album from the duo called Jenny and Johnny , also known as uber-sexy Rilo Kiley singer Jenny Lewis and her boyfriend, Johnathan Rice. The two have been co-mingling fluids (er, songs) for some time now, appearing together live and working together in LA on demo tracks. The two packed up the station wagon and headed to Nebraska to record the album this past winter and were promptly snowbound for the whole of five weeks. How romantic! And slushy! How stupid! Read my lips: Nebraska in [...]

About seven years ago next January we stumbled into a David Dondero set at the Knitting Factory in New York. Pretty sure he was there opening for Rilo Kiley's Jenny Lewis and Blake Sennett, who were playing unplugged on a night that went in the books as one of New York's coldest in decades. We had heard Dondero's The Transient and loved it and by the time he finished strumming through older cut "Michael Raines," we were convinced: his was quiet fire, everyone needed to hear him. But they haven't unfortunately. Since then, Dondero has released [...]

Filed under: News , Video , New Music Brandon Flowers may be doing this solo for now, but the Killers frontman has enlisted the help of Academy Award-winning actress Charlize Theron to play his hot heroin in his music video for 'Crossfire,' the first single off his solo debut album, 'Flamingo.'

You may also notice that most of this Weeklies post comprises much of Kid Cudi songs - well that's because when I think of FUN , I unconsciously associate Kid Cudi's music to [...]
