I think this video sums up The Joy Formidable quite nicely.
Wind them up and let them go and see if they just keep rocking forever.
A video I've watched an awful lot of times.

It's Friday, so let's let our hair down. (Literally for me, maybe metaphorically for most of you.)
I rely heavily on the WGOM to introduce me to new and interesting music, and this strategy definitely serves me well these days. Every once in a while I try to seek out music from other sources. I came across Shana Cleveland & The Sandcastles at NPR's First Listen this week and was intrigued. However, they have no recent videos on YouTube. Fortunately, Cleveland is also guitarist in singer in La Luz. So here you go!

These kids are long overdue their spot on the .org's front page.
Hmm, that venue looks familiar...
This was much cooler than I expected it would be.

Mr. Butler is of Digable Planets fame, if that's your bag.

The xx have a new album out, but this isn't one of the new tracks. I really, really wanted to like these guys, but I just couldn't get into them. Maybe the new record will do it for me.
Some Canadian craziness to warm you up for your weekend.

After the show, and post show discussion I feel like this is obligatory.
An article in the New Yorker got me curious about the xx. I've only given them a cursory listen thus far. Anyone else have an opinion on them?

People are just crazy for that ol' time music these days.
