The trio of Cincinnati natives collectively known as WHY? have been cooped up in a Texas studio recording for a new album as well as for some lucky fans . Come September, though, the Wolf brothers Yoni and Josiah along with the multi-talented Doug McDiarmid will stretch their legs on a newly announced tour. The 15-date trek opens in their hometown on September 14th and sees the indie folk-hop group playing some off-the-beaten-path venues, sticking largely to fine arts theaters like Boston's The Paramount and two shows in one night at [...]

I have been meaning to write about Tyler, The Creator and the whole Odd Future phenomenon for a while. Originally I was planning to feature 'Yonkers' as part of our Weekend Videos feature but by the time I got to see the video it had already racked 6 million hits. Surely there weren't that many [...]
We Talk Musical Influences and Favorites with Son Lux (Photo by Brenden Beecy ) Ryan Lott ( Son Lux) just released his sophmore LP , We are Rising , which he recorded over the span of 28 days for NPR's Record Per Month Challenge. The album is a complex and layered collection of compositions that beg repeat listens. As hopeless music lovers , musical etymology is always fascinating to us. Learning what made a certain work [...]
My apologies to Ryan Hall, good friend and author of this post, for the delay in uploading "You Are Worth The Whole World," the delay in posting this, the delay in saying how much we miss you now that you are in Africa, how much we hope that you and Addy are doing well, doing good (we know that you are). "It's a blank city, baby, where the buildings get stepped on." In an attempt to create something beautiful before my wife [...]
Title: "The Way We Were" Artist: The Season Label: Self-released Released: 05/31/11 Standouts: "The Way We Were" "Running" "Why" "Belong"
Derrière Balam Acab se cache Alec Koone, un jeune étudiant américain de 19 ans. Ses productions font parler de lui depuis pas mal de temps maintenant mais c'est surtout avec la sortie de l'EP See Birds que le jeune homme s'est imposé comme un talent avec lequel il faudrait désormais compter. Dans ce recueil de quatre titres, l'américain synthétisait le meilleur des tendances musicales en vogue à ce moment là (chillwave, lo-fi, witch house) pour créer une electronica possédée d'une rare beauté. Tous les morceaux avaient en commun cette noirceur qui fait qu'on apprécie [...]
BALAM ACAB sacará WANDER / WONDER en agosto, y "Oh, Why" es parte de esa producción. Ya hacía falta algo de eso que llamábamos Witch House y que poco a poco a perdido fuerza, por lo menos hacía falta algo así de fino. ♩ BALAM ACAB - Oh, Why
![[Ones To Watch] – Introducing – The Mhurs](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3478767_lg.jpg)
Tweet The Mhurs popped up in the LBYB inbox courtesy of Josh Sickles from 1, 2, 3 , and we haven't been so excited about a new band since, well... since we first heard 1, 2, 3 . I say new, but The Mhurs have actually been together for four years. They're putting a proper record together for the first time now, though, and based on the four tracks available right now, it's shaping up pretty damn nicely. I was sold on [...]
Hailing from the deep south of America (Muscle Shoals, Alabama to be precise), Laura and Lydia Rogers - better known as The Secret Sisters - have been making a bit of a name for themselves this year thanks in no small part to the fact that they possess two of the most pure and original voices GFP has heard for a long time. While traditional Country music isn't the sort of genre we normally cover, there's no denying the magical quality that the sisters possess. Their self-titled debut album was executively produced [...]
And the flood of talent from Eastern Europe continues! From the beautiful city of Saint Petersburg, D-Mad is attracting all the right attention and even inspired his fellow Russian producer Arty to remix She Gave Me Happiness . A vivid example of just how much talent is left to discover, this rising artist is highly adept at contrasting soft melodies with pounding beats. Taking his latest release for example, Solidarity leads you in with unstoppable electro basslines before it cuts you down with a massively epic breakdown. Peering into historical tunes, [...]

This one took some to come together. Hope it taste good.... 1 .

Not to say that had weitz put it out it would have been any less than good but i'm not sure my brain [...]

josiah wolf & liz hodson - "ain't no sunshine" (download) Last July, I posted a dark & chilling cover of Nirvana 's " Heart-Shaped Box ," done by my friend Liz Hodson . Since then, she's completed a 6-song covers EP with Josiah Wolf (of WHY?) called Under Lovers Covers . The EP features the previously-mentioned Nirvana cover, this excellent version of Bill Withers ' classic " Ain't No Sunshine [...]

's last two records, 20092s Eskimo Snow and 20082s Alopecia , the band drew from sessions recorded in February 2007. Four years later, what's next for the group? That's a question that might be at least partially answered on Yoni Wolf 's [...]
If you're familiar with the band WHY? , you'll probably know that the outfit began as a one man show and stayed that way for several years. Before picking up his bandmates for their 2005 album release, WHY? was simply comprised of the Cincinnati-born artist Jonathan "Yoni" Wolf . Six years from bringing on new members to the project and two years after their most recent LP, Eskimo Snow , Wolf is bringing himself back to his roots with a set of solo concerts. The mini-tour itself is more of a short stint than anything, [...]
hey there! hope everyone is well. i am just fine, thanks for asking. why? is one of the those bands that i come and go, or actually for two months ill love, then 4 months i cant be bothered with. they are definitely a "in the mood" type a band. they are at least for me, your mileage may vary of course. i really dig alopecia and elephant eyelash but havent dug that much further into their catalogue - i did listen to eskimo snow, once i believe. spanish moon is in baton rouge, la for [...]
