Hamilton Leithauser + Rostam – A 1000 Times
FTLT (the citizen that alerted the citizenry to the likes of Alabama Shakes and Courtney Barnett long before everyone else figured it out, who also used to be a DJ, contributor, and frequent commenter as well as being known as somewhat of a basketball enthusiast (in the case that anyone is unfamiliar)) causally dropped a mention in a FMD a little bit back. I've learned to listen when the hitman does so.
A collaboration between the lead singer of The Walkmen and one of the main cogs of Vampire Weekend, their album is a whirling plunge through genres, eras, and textures, but all with a distinctly original sound that I hope they explore on another album or two. Anyway, this song has been between lowkey to rock-climber's grip stuck in my head for the past few weeks now.

Eleanor Friedberger – Does Turquoise Work?
Okay, well, it's "newish". Anyway, if we had a FTLT signal, I'd be using it.

Huh, she grew up next to the boy's school.
By Divine Right – Cupid In Oilskins
I have wanted to play this band for a long time, as they are a favorite of mine, but there is a real lack of live video from them. Furthermore the quality of live footage from them is kind of, well, bad. This video is no different.

I strongly suggest looking these guys up for studio clips, they rule.
