New Music from Nathan K

March 6, 2018 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

Nathan K first came onto my radar with 2014’s Methodist Girls, and since then, I’ve kept close ties on his work. He just released a new track from his forthcoming Bridges EP, and it continues his growth from bedroom songwriter to powerful pop perfection. This song is louder than most of his previous work, but the way he softens his notes on the vocal delivery still carries a great deal of intimacy for listeners…and that’s something I’ll always stand behind. He’ll also be making his way to Austin for SXSW, so perhaps you’ll want to add him to acts you’d like catch.

Earlier this week BODEGA announced they’ll be working with What’s Your Rupture to release their new LP. With that came the additional buzz as the band head from Brooklyn to Austin for SXSW, bringing a blend of creatively arty rock n’ roll. If you’re looking for that act that everyone will rave about when the fest is over, I have a feeling this might be the one. Click on for their answers to our little interview! Including the hot gossip on their label boss and his disdain for cheese! Who doesn’t like cheese?!

SXSW Interview: Parrot Dream

March 1, 2018 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

I first came to discover Parrot Dream through my Interwebs friendship with band member Matt, who also played in Exiles. He dropped me some tunes, and when I heard they were coming for SXSW, so I reached out hoping to catch them for a few quick questions. There’s also a few singles hanging out at the end of the Interview for you to enjoy.

SXSW Interviews: JAGUWAR

March 1, 2018 RayRay Leave a comment

I’ve obviously been talking a lot about SXSW recently as I think I’m finally ready to prepare for the crazy events in a short couple of weeks. Part of me prep work is making a list of bands I absolutely have to see, and one of those is German based group JAGUWAR. Their sound blends styles of 80s new wave bands with a more modern, European pop take. Think a little dark pop, a little bit of brooding, and mix in some brightness underneath the surface. I dig it. If it sounds like something you might be into, hit the jump for an interview with the band.

SXSW Interviews: DYGL

February 28, 2018 RayRay Leave a comment

As I comb my way through the SXSW lineup, I continue to find more and more bands to be excited about. One of those bands is relatively young Japanese quartet DYGL. Their songs have this great, almost vintage Strokes style sound to them which isn’t surprising considering their latest album Say Goodbye to Memory Den was produced by none other than Albert Hammond Jr. He’s a pretty big deal, or so I heard. If you’re looking to learn more about the great bands coming to town in a couple of weeks, hit the jump for an interview with DYGL.

February 27, 2018 RayRay Leave a comment

Is everyone else starting to pick up the SXSW fever? This time last week, I really wasn’t, but now I’m beginning to feel that itch, that desire for the week to get here already. Of course it helps that Nate Dawg and myself have the entire week off from work, so yeah… Anyway, I’m carrying the torch of SXSW interviews today with a quick and easy one from Washington D.C. based ATH faves Bad Moves. Strap in and check out the responses after the jump.
