Thursday, November 11, 2010 Today's Quick Mention: Joanna Newsom is at the Paramount tonight! As far as I know the show isn't sold out, so you still have some time to buy a ticket and witness her enchanting ways live. On a related note, anyone know who the "special guest" is? I haven't seen it listed anywhere. I have an incredibly long day of work ahead of me tomorrow, so for today's post I think I instinctively sought out something [...]
Underwater Peoples ' Tennis are set to play a last minute New Brunswick basement show @ Camp Crystal Lake tomorrow (Tuesday) 8/24. Ridgewood's Family Portrait and New Brunswick's Essence of Water are also on the bill. The Denver based group released a 7" through NJ's Underwater Peoples that has already sold out. Don't fret though, you can download a song titled "Marathon" off the 7" below. Tennis are also set to play Manhattan's Cake Shop and Brooklyn's Glasslands with Family Portrait this Wednesday and Thursday respectively. More info on tomorrow's event can [...]
TENNIS This married duo from Denver, Colorado, are without doubt the most reflective band we've ever posted about here on The Recommender, mirroring the past so well it would have Einstein re-evaluating his theories on time travel. Their arresting and rather immaculately conceived pop music is like a perfect slice of 1960s musical history, of the kind not seen since Jackie Shannon adorned the stage at Hullabaloo . It's all the more astonishing when you put their new music in the context of their contemporaries and the rest of our modern era, with [...]

When contrasted with the comparatively hi-fi South Carolina, one gets the impression that the aforementioned myspace cuts don't accurately reflect their aesthetic. Or, perhaps SC is simply a [...]
Il y a quelques jours on vous faisait découvrir le duo Tennis avec " Marathon ". Voici " South Carolina ", le premier single, accompagné d'une video réalisée par Scott Laidlaw qui compile des images de danseuses dénudées. Oulala ! Un clip qui n'est pas sans rappeler le " Sleep Tight " de Rollerskaters.
I just got home... back in the great Rocky Mountains! Given anything above 60 degrees felt tropical in Tofino, I'm diggin' the plush 75 that it is outside today. So much that I think I'm going to go enjoy the out-of-doors today. Who know's... maybe I'll even play some Tennis... or at least listen to the band Tennis . I've yet to hear a doo-wappy track from Tennis that I didn't immediately fall in love with. Here is the new July-esque video for "South Carolina". Tennis :: South Carolina
