Givers have a new video for their single “Meantime”. If you are unfamiliar with Givers, they are an indie pop outfit from Louisiana signed to Glassnote Records. They sound like a mix of the good parts that make up Vampire Weekend and Surfer Blood. I enjoyed watching this low budget, fun video!

Mates of State 2011 Tour : Live Video From Salt Lake City

Mates of State have been a huge part of Leslie and my relationship. After starting my first vintage shop in Texas, I used to meet with bands I admired and swap clothing for merch.

I don’t know if I can forgive lo-fi group Gauntlet Hair for having their Myspace page as their first hit on Google, but I’m really into the music. Their new self titled record is out there, floating around on the internet. It’s in your best interest to listen to it.

Cool Bands I Saw During CMJ: Vacationer

After being underwhelmed for the majority of my week by god awful bands and the lack of free liquor, I headed over to Brooklyn Bowl on Saturday evening to see Vacationer. Vacationer is light-hearted, dreamy indie pop: very much the current Brooklyn sound infused with a big, bubbly bong rip.

On only their 5th show ever, there was an impressive crowd swaying and sipping their pints of Octoberfest. Check them out at their bandcamp page below:

Subtext Is Deadly by BRAHMS from Big Ugly Yellow Couch on Vimeo.

Indie rock trio Brahms performs a stripped down version of Subtext is Deadly. I have had the pleasure of seeing this band live a few times and I have to say that I see them as one of the most promising bands coming out of New York City at the moment. Excited to see what they do next. BRAHMS
