Daily Video: Vuvuvultures, Arty Party

  By

Darlings, it is FRIDAY NIGHT JAM TIME. Today we are pouring ourselves a beverage, jamming our haterblockers on our faces (indoors) and dancing around our kitchens and living rooms to Arty Party by Vuvuvultures.

Attending the party they are singing about here would probably be super-tedious; on the other hand, running away from it – with them, of course – would probably be something I would do just because I know it would end in a good story.

If you are planning to be in Italy in early April or attending the Adam Ant show in London in the middle of the month, you can see them live!

2nd April – 110 Café-Mercoledi Rock City, Perugia, Italy

3rd April – Combo Social Club, Florence, Italy

4th April – PnBox – Pordenone, Italy

5th April – Covo Club – Bologna, Italy

19th April – Hammermith Apollo, London supporting Adam Ant

Daily Video: 28 Boulevard, Electric Feet

  By

Electric Feet, by 28 Boulevard, of Cambridge, England, contains just the right mixture of fuzz, aggressive guitars and pop bounce; also excellent are the visuals on this video. Though some of them veer sharply into “unintentional hilarity” territory aka “I may have made a tiny yeeeek! noise when the silhouettes were filled with their faces.”

Electric Feet is from Sunclouds, due out April 7, 2014, though you can listen to additional excerpts at their Soundcloud page.

Rosanne Cash & The Thread, backstage at Carolina Theater in Durham, North Carolina, with A Feather’s Not A Bird, from her new record The River & The Thread, or: the CXCW set I wasn’t quite sure was real until I clicked play.

Daily Video: Travie McCoy feat. Brendon Urie, Keep On Keeping On

  By

And here, for anyone who might need it, is a little music video pep-talk: Keep On Keeping On, by Travie McCoy (Gym Class Heroes) featuring Brendon Urie (Panic! at the Disco). I am thoroughly biased by generalized affection for them both, but the video is sweet and beautifully lit and so charming I didn’t even really care that the wings bb!Travis sprouts at the end don’t really look like swan wings.

In fact the only quibble I have is that the backflip(s) that happened behind the scenes didn’t make it into the final product.

Daily Video: Two Mule Blues, Old Vinyl and Innocence

  By

I look forward to Two Mule Blues‘ Couch by Couch West set every year at least in part because I want to see what they are going to blow up/set on fire. Spoiler alert: it is usually a couch. But the method changes. This year they performed Old Vinyl and Innocence and I am not quite sure how they lit the couch on fire – blowtorch? – but they did.
