STRATEGIC ARTIST ADVOCACY SINCE 1997
Reno's BLUNDERBUSST returns from a five-year hiatus with a new six-song EP and double 7-inch tomorrow courtesy of Slow Start Records. Today, hear "James Alex Chilton" from the new record, which Pure Grain Audio calls "Their best material to date," and adds, "Let’s just hope it doesn’t take another five years to hear more from this refreshingly unique band."
The new single from The Late Innings is a music industry mini-drama. “‘Last Resort’ is about the manager of a rock star who needs to extricate his client from a precarious situation,” says Vincent Sinex. “The long-suffering manager, who has come to rescue of the rock star time and time again, is once again put to the test when the police call upon him to deal with the star, a just-past-his-prime rocker who has holed himself up in the top floor suite of a building that is set to be demolished.” Listen now via The Spill Magazine.
Today, Refinery29 premieres the luxurious and fun music video for Samantha Sidley’s career-defining anthem, “I Like Girls,” written by Alex Lilly along with Sam’s wife and the album’s producer, Barbara Gruska. Interior Person is out Sept. 13th from Release Me Records. See Sam will be on tour with The Bird and The Bee starting Aug. 11th.
"A two-minute dreamlike exploration of love and time... One can't help but feel weightless, elevated while listening." Simone White chats with PopMatters about giving her charming single "The Beep Beep Song" a second life. Click to check out the premiere of this two-minute gem and hear it everywhere this Friday.
Described by MXDWN today as "inspired by the desolation and isolation of the desert," the vast sound of LANDROID now has a fantastic visual accompaniment. The music video for "Yellow Sea" is more like a short film. Be on the lookout for the Imperial Dunes full-length out Sept. 13th.
"With many Beach Boys songs, it seems impossible to record a version that betters Brian Wilson’s immaculate original productions. I’d argue Samantha Sidley’s jazzy version surpasses the original."
