This is still a relevantly titled song after this weekend, I suppose. Plus it's about time to see if I can get retweeted by these guys again.

The Darcys – Hunting
Another band I was surprised I hadn't played before. I think I saw these guys at the Entry opening for Ramona Falls once.
Remind me in six months and I'll play something from their subsequent semi-reinvention as a electro-rock duo after the other two members left.

Peter Gabriel – Lay Your Hands on Me
Warpaint – Whiteout

Talking Heads – Don’t Worry About The Government

This whole Cecil Sharp House show is excellent. After the jump, a few Continue reading Julia Holter – Four Gardens
