When I first went to check out this video, I was going CRAZY because I knew I had heard the song but not the original version, so I kept wondering if it was a cover or what. Then I realized I had heard it on Glee. To be honest I think I like the Glee version better, but it's still a good song, a fun(.) video (...get it?) and Janelle Monae (*heart*) is in it briefly. The one other weird thing: it

Hanging onto your Frappes, Brit stans? Godney took to Facebook today to make a very special video announcement for her fans-specifically of the Latino origin. Watch as our fearless Spearleader-basked in a Holy Golden Spearit Glow-delivers a one sentence announcement while boldly, unabashedly staring straight into a cue card below the camera. "Check back into my Facebook page on July 25 to find out where my Femme Fatale Tour is heading after Europe. Adios, amigos!" she mutters. (Just between you and me-and this is completely a shot in [...]
So Neon Indian has a new album coming out and just announced a new tour. It's nice of them to come to Arizona where I live but would it kill them to come to Phoenix were I LIVE?

Oooooh wheeeee! Just got an exciting email about a summer tour...Sia will be playing Variety Playhouse (which is only the BEST place to see a show in this town) on August 3rd! This is probably common knowledge, but I've admittedly been living under a rock. So, it's news to me! Anyway, she's got Oh Land opening up for her. And, ya know, I've said this before, and I'll say it again... Sia is like an angel. And, she loves dogs. So, she is basically numero uno in my book of favorite people. That book isn't [...]

Rubblebucket makes groovy indie pop with horns. A member recently posted a casting call for the video to their next single, "Silly Fathers," to a mailing list I subscribe to. I'd never heard of them, but the video treatment sounded great and included a link to their previous video, "Came Out of a Lady," which fully sold me.Formed as a duo in Burlington, VT, Rubblebucket is now an eight-piece

This is an album that I've been listening to on repeat for the last few weeks, as you may be able to tell because I've posted about The Dodos twice -1, 2 (with mp3s!) - in the last month or so and it's finally out today! I love The Dodos' intense percussion and jangly guitars. Since I've already posted quite a bit pertaining to this album, I'll just let say buy the album and see how awesome it is

Another lament for a missed show... Lost in the Trees played on Friday night, but despite a strong, trusted recommendation, I dragged my feet in grabbing tickets and it sold out. I've been trying to make up for it by playing their fantastic album, All Alone in an Empty House, on repeat for the past few days. Em gave it a nod way back in '09, but it's recently been gussied up for a wide release
