Corduroi

New music discovery from Austin, Texas.
Cody Wilson is the man behind Corduroi. I don’t know much about this electronic artist since I just stumbled upon him a few days ago.
You can download his five-track EP ‘Anything For Now’ for free off bandcamp. ‘My Dear’ is most definitely my favourite track on the release. And if you haven’t already, check out Corduroi’s video for his track ‘All Ways’. This great video was done by Austin-based film collective Color Chart. (more…)

Entertainment For The Braindead

‘Eftb prepares for return’ is what you can read on her official website. Her voice is fragile and captivating, her songs tell stories of friendship and failure, of discovering the world… You will find yourself humming her melodies days after hearing them.
Her name is Julia Kotowski and she is Entertainment For The Braindead. This creative singer-songwriter from Germany is currently on tour so make sure to catch her live. I hope you will like her as much as I do. (more…)

The Weather Station

Another day, another interview!
Lead singer Tamara Lindeman from Toronto (CA) band The Weather Station was kind enough to answer my little interview.
The Weather Station is the project of Tamara Lindeman (and lovely collaborators as well). Their debut album called ‘The Line’ is amazing (their song ‘East’ is a favourite of mine) and they just completed their sophomore album, expected to be release this summer. Well, I will say no more. Just listen. I guarantee you will fall in love with them. (more…)

Aidan Knight already released four EPs, ‘First Takes’, ‘Hi There’, ‘Awktober’ and ‘Friendly Fires’, plus a full-length called ‘Versicolour’.
