It is a little hard for us to believe Eastern Conference Champions when they sing "we are the broken and famous for nothing"—because they are certainly not fading into the background with this performance.
With the way they have captivated us, we and Onitsuka Tiger are thrilled to have ECC as this week's installment of our Tiger Tracks series!
With a name like The Reflections, it's only fitting that Darian Zahedi and Jon Safley (drummer of Bleached) produced an epic album filled with love and longing. Their upcoming LP, Limerence, is a dreamy indie pop record that will suit the summer season perfectly.
We are always eagerly anticipating news from the Montreal artist, Mac DeMarco, even long after his release of 2. Now in promotion of his upcoming tour—check out the dates below—DeMarco has released a video for "My Kind Of Woman" featuring his unforgettable gap-toothed grin hidden behind a layer of smeared red lipstick.
Our good friends over at Vans were at SXSW back in March and put on some great performances that we were excited to see! Lucky for you, they have also put together a video series from their House of Vans traveling music venue that features some awesome live performances in their entirety! You can watch the video of the Lord Huron performance above and go to their Off The Wall channel for more performances by METZ, DIIV, Alt-J and more!
It was during last year's Culture Collide festival that we fell madly in love with the Louisiana-based indie pop outfit Royal Teeth. The spark between us was so intense that the tip of a drumstick broke off mid-set, nearly smacking those of us in the front row square in the face.
We've been fantasizing about that moment since the fall…until the video above—an interview DTS held with Royal Teeth at SXSW—has been available for us to watch on repeat. Get your swoon on now.
Alright, we admit it: we have a crush on Surfer Blood. What is not to love? They're adorable, they make songs which happily stick in your brain, they're hilarious and they just seem like the kind of guys you would want to hang out with at a party. So Dr. Martens and FILTER threw a party—a great party—and invited Surfer Blood.
With the weather heating up all over, it's time to fire up that BBQ, lather up that sunscreen and start icing the coolers. Thankfully our good friends at Macbeth have come to your aid with a playlist made just for you! Whip out this playlist for a guaranteed good time and check out what inspired Macbeth to make it below:
We, at Macbeth, are lucky enough to be surrounded by music and awesome musicians every day. And, we each have pretty eclectic musical tastes. We put together this playlist to share the songs we are listening to in the office as we get ready for another epic Summer.
Hope you enjoy!
Our friends over at DTS went behind the scenes with Sinkane while at our FILTER on Rainey presented by DTS and Slacker and we're here to share what they had to say!
The band shares how they got into music and their wonderful ability to experiment with sound. Check out more from their interview in the video above!
