In this week's paper, Tom Murphy extols the virtues of Champaign, Illinois, indie pop outfit Headlights. Says Murphy:Headlights writes upbeat melodies that are so catchy it's often easy to miss t... Continue reading "Giveaway: A Pair Of Tickets To Tonight's Headlights Show At Rubber Gloves" >
Headlights, uno de nuestros grupos favoritos de los últimos años regresa para presentarnos su tercer álbum, Wildlife, el cual verá la luz el próximo 6 de octubre, a través de su sello discográfico Polyvinyl Records . Tras el éxito obtenido con sus dos trabajos anteriores, gracias sobre todo a canciones como TV o Cherry Tulips , nos presentan ahora su nuevo disco, del que apenas conocemos su canción Get Going, que sirve como adelanto del mismo y que podéis escuchar a continuación. Aprovecho también para recuperar el video musical de la mencionada Cherry [...]
I was turned on the this band a couple of years ago by my wife. She put a couple of their tracks on a mixtape for me back when we were dating. After hearing this new song of theirs, I am wondering why I never took the time to seek out more of their stuff. While that is on my to-do list, enjoy this new video by Headlights. not the most attractive people in the world...but they sure do [...]
Midnight tonight isn't the exact midway point of this year, but hey, it's the last day of its sixth month, which is close enough for roadwork. Or, er, listwork, that is: After the jump, I give you the seven songs that I would be more likely to put on a mix CD than any other, in YouTube/blurb form. Think of it as a post for me and my creaky, prone-to-forgetting-stuff brain to come back to when the year-end listmaking craze hits in a couple of months and an invitation for you to engage in similar Monday [...]

Last night Glenn at Coolfer noticed that the indie-leaning retailer Insound had instituted a new program called Give More, Get More , which allows people who purchase digital albums to earmark 25 cents of the purchase price toward one of six bands to help support their next national touring effort. (The current beneficiaries are The Big Sleep, Russian Circles, The Twilight Sad, Headlights, Epsilons, and Videohippos; buyers can also add extra money to the touring fund if they wish.) People who buy digital albums also get an MP3 mixtape of 10-15 "hand-selected" tracks, which is updated monthly. [...]

Here's the Science of Sleep-esque video for Headlight's beautiful new single, "Cherry Tulips."
headlights - cherry tulips [ link 2 ] [this sweet lovely song kind of speaks for itself. layered harmonies that offer up images of sundresses and beehives reflecting a bygone era that we all wish we experienced; these are just some of the elements that i hear in this song. too much analysis? then listen to this trio hailing from illinois and just allow yourself to drift away.] http://feeds.feedburner.com/Wo ngiesMusicWorld
I wasn't much of Headlights fan before, hearing about them scarcely and with a million bands that need coverage things get lost in the shuffle. Until I heard the track Cherry Tulips in January where it was the ultimate dream pop song for me. It remains one of my favorite tracks this year with this song being posted a whole on other blogs. It definitely has me singing along to this song, though in a way I can perfectly relate to contradictoriness of not being able to sleep but when you finally get to it's totally euphoric. [...]
Saturday, March 1, 2008 It's unlikely, but on the off-chance that you managed to forget about the Headlights I figured it would be a good idea to share the dreamy video for Cherry Tulips as a reminder to seek out their recently released full length, Some Racing, Some Stopping. Watch it now! : Click Here If Video Is Not Visible : [...]
Headlights @ Iota, Arlington, VA - Feb 21, 2008 ( Lexie Moreland ) First up at Mercury Lounge was the Evangelicals, a spooky poppy band not beneath slathering all their gear with glo paint and breaking out the blacklights. The highlight of this show occurred when the lead singer jumped onto the kick drum and steadied himself against the ceiling. He wasn't steady enough though, and he face-planted back onto the stage, knocking the mic stand into the audience and flipping on the floodlights. He finished the song from the bassist's microphone.

As previously reported , Headlights - or, as I like to call them, Stoned Rogue Wave - are on tour with fellow probable pot lovers Evangelicals. They'll play the Silverlake Lounge on March 19; their latest full-length, Some Racing, Some Stopping , dropped last week on Polyvinyl . In the Bizarre Coincidences Dept., I was listening to the title track the other day while narrowly avoiding a pretty intense car accident on the 101 in which there was, yes, some racing, some stopping and some busted fenders. Headlights - "Cherry Tulips": [...]

Listening : 1. The Diaphanoids : Allegedly from outer space, Andrea Bellentani and Simon Maccari create dance music with an unashamed look back at the music of the 70's and 80's. This is top notch Italian space disco. Their ep, Mermaids Of Lunaris , will be released on March 31st. Listen to: Weightless Motionless ( mp3 ) 2. Heroes of Popular Wars : "You'll often find a 2 minute pop song surrounded by jams on both the intro and the outro. I guess that's how we do." That is exactly what [...]

This go-around for Headlights finds the quartet giving us a sweet R&B lullaby with "Cherry Tulips." I'm sure there are already cries of Feist infringement but the dancing isn't choreographed and there aren't glowing explosions contained in trash cans, so we don't see the harm.
