generic treasure - Austin Town Hall

More New Tunes from Modern Hut

I can’t say enough about how much I am enjoying Modern Hut right now. This new track from the songwriter features the voice of Screaming Females frontwoman, Marissa Paternoster, who just happens to be the most bad ass girl in rock n’ roll right now. The duo have written a song that reminds me of a more serious version of The Moldy Peaches, with the focus on the lyrics here much more serious than something like “Who’s Got the Crack.” It makes for a special listen, providing more anticipation for Generic Treasure, which hits stores on August 6th via Don Giovanni Records.

New Tune from Modern Hut

June 9, 2013 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

Joe Steinhardt is working under the moniker Modern Hut, and it’s time we introduce this fantastic new voice to you all. His songs, like the one below, are pretty basic in construction, just using guitar and some minimal backing accompaniment. But, I’m particularly interested in the way his vocals are delivered, not to mention the lyrics that tie everything together. Perhaps you can ascribe similarities to John Darnielle or a more serious Adam Green, which both count as great things in my book. His album Generic Treasure will be coming out on August 17th courtesy of Don Giovanni Records.
