Rose Melberg Wears Imaginary Pants

Leave a comment

3132283664-1I wanted to bringing you something special on a Friday, something I thought you could really sink your teeth into before you hit the weekend. This little jam comes from Rose Melberg and her new project Imaginary Pants.  The duo has a collection of demos, but they sounds pretty incredible if you ask me. I like the opening jam, and I can see how the sound fits into the modern music industry, with vocal harmonies and a little bit of twang. They’re going to toss out this wonderful collection on Lost Sound Tapes sometime in the near future, so keep a look out. You can grab all the demos HERE.

Strummed Balladry from Gambles

Leave a comment

653I’m a sucker for a man and his guitar, and that’s exactly what Matthew Siskin and his project Gambles has given me.  Not only that, but I’m really enjoying his knack for word wizardry.  Very few people can come across as affecting and honest as Siskin does in this new single, and my only complaint is there isn’t more to absorb.  Even scrolling through his web site, I can’t help but be drawn to the aesthetic he’s putting forward.  A bit of craft and poetry, and possibly a bit of hidden mystery.  Sounds like it’s right up my alley, so I can’t wait to see him in February here in Austin.

Show Preview: Centro-Matic/ONUINU @ The Mohawk (2/1)

Leave a comment

Date 2/1/13
Location The Mohawk
Doors 8pm
Tickets Mohawk @ Frontgate


Double bill of diversity.

First up, Will Johnson blows the dust off of Centro-Matic playing the outside stage. Hoping to get some new tracks out of this deal. Doors are 8pm, show at 9pm with Frank Smith and Moonlight Towers opening. I really enjoy Moonlight Towers for some just plain rock, got to hang with James at EAR studios during SxSW a few years back, super good people. Should be a lovely evening ($13 doors/$15 will call). A lil Centro-Matic action to put you in the mood.

Things double back and head indoors for ONUINU on the inside stage. Portland based Dorian Duvall brings his show to town so you can dance. Love Inks and Roger Sellers open up ($8 door/$10 will call). Here is some ONUINU to get you in the mood, or if you fill AV, go here to see and hear the latest..

More New Music From My Gold Mask

The release date for the latest My Gold Mask album Leave Me Midnight is quickly approaching (February 19th to be exact) and I couldn’t be more excited.  Their sound is clearly in the same vein as bands like Crystal Castles, but with not quite as much heavy ass synth and more of a focus on quality vocal delivery.  Prior to the upcoming release date in a couple of weeks, the band have offered this new song “Burn Like the Sun” to quench your thirst for lady pop.  Hopefully you’ll see why I can’t wait for this release date.
