We now know where to go whenever we are in a grumpy, sadface mood. Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zero’s new album Here. Or at least to some of the pre-released singles off of the album which actually drops on May 29th! We have been listening to their new song That’s What’s Up on repeat for the last week, and show no signs of stopping or slowing down. Take a listen to That’s What’s Up and let us know what you think!
How fun is this?!
To promote his upcoming release of his LP Blunderbuss, Jack White (now a solo artists) launched 1000 flexi-discs, of his song “Freedom at 21″ attached to large balloons into the air. It is estimated that only about 100 of the disc balloons will be retrieved but it sure would be fun to find one floating through the sky (and landing conveniently on your front lawn)! We love all of these new, fun, and creative promotional ideas. Check out the video below and Jack Whites new album when it drops on April 24th!
The South by Southwest (SXSW!) musical extravaganza in Austin, TX finished up last week and if you were like us, you sadly missed out on all the fun. But, Que Sera Sera. So we decided to put together a post features some of our favorite performances to share.
After listening to Rachel Goodrich’s song “Light Bulbs” all we can think about is spring, bike rides, picnics, swing sets, and lemonade. We LOVE this song and adorable music video. ENJOY!
This past Saturday Night Live episode hosted by Maya Rudolph took a few hilarious pokes at music super star Beyoncé’s expense. (Although we bet she found it just as funny as we did) Check out the ridiculous SNL skit featuring some of our favorite “musical artists”! And when your done catching your breath, take a listen to the musical performance from Sleigh Bells!
This just in: In other Beyoncé news, we just found out that she and Jay-Z trademarked their daughter, Blue Ivy Carter’s, name! WHAT!
The Grammys were last night and aside from the talk about Adele’s 6 awards and the honoring of Whitney Houston’s talent and life, the crazy fashion’s that go hand in hand with this music awards show have taken center stage. Fashion is subjective, right? So, how about creating a “Well That’s Interesting” list instead of the typical “Worst Dressed” list? As expected, there were a lot of very unique and “Interesting” fashions at the show and here are just a few.

Rihanna has added a new tattoo to her collection of at least 14 tattoos, already made up of stars on her back, “shhh…” on her finger, and a skull tattoo on her ankle.
This time, the Talk That Talk singer inked herself with a tattoo familiar to the rap community. “Thug Life” is now permanently placed on her knuckles as a tribute to the late rapper Tupac who had the same phrase tattooed on his stomach. Thug Life is also the name of a music group Tupac started back in 1993.
Looking at the picture of Rihanna displaying her new ink, we can’t help but find it funny that she is wearing a t-shirt with the face of The Beatles member John Lennon on it. Not exactly what one would considered to be very “Thug”!

This is the type of sound that has us wishing it was summer. Wanting to roll down the windows and head west towards the beach with this Hospitality soundtrack playing in the background.
Up until 30 minutes ago, hospitality was a warm beverage, snack, and place to rest our head. But that’s all changed after listening to these two tracks form the band Hospitality. With their soon to be released (1/31) first album, under Merge Records, Hospitality has already won our hearts and place on our iPod. We hope you enjoy the sound of this trio of talent out of Brooklyn as much as we do!
