Concert Alert...Peter Bjorn & John
I am super stoked today because I am going to se PB&J tonight at a free show at Bardot! If you don’t know who Peter Bjorn & John are, you’ve been living under a rock. They have an album called Writers Block which featured hit songs entitled Young Folks, The Chills, Up Against The Wall, and a bunch more. They are a Swedish indie rock band and have been making waves for a real...

Books.books.books.
As you know I’ve been reading Joan Didion’s A Year of Magical Thinking. The book is amazing and it has been a great read but I’m coming to a problem. I love EVERYTHING she writes however when I’m at the last fifty or so pages I have a hard time finishing it. I’m assuming it’s because I don’t want the experience to end. I do this with many of C.S....

Concert Review of Foster the People, Chain Gang of...
You know what I love? Free. I will participate in anything free especially free shows. The echo has residency nights in which they feature a band for a month and the show is free! Usually these bands are up and coming artist who are on their way to be huge. Such bands like Passion Pit, Incubus, and other great bands have graced the tiny stage of the echo. This month Wednesday’s residency...

Dear Sufjan.... a review of The Age of Adz
Dear Sufjan Stevens,
I’m trying TRYING to fall in love with this new record and try to connect with it the way I have with all of your other albums. It feels like, my beloved, that you are trying so desperately to be catastrophically different from all your other projects. that you have nearly fallen off the edge of being experimental and left me at a loss. I can respect trying an...

Concert Alert... Foster the People
So as you may have guessed I am a music junkie. So as I was wandering around the world wide web I found Foster the people. I fell in love hard and fast. This band is incredible, INCREDIBLE. Their debut album just came out last week and they are already playing at Coachella. I’m dying. This band is a mix between MGMT’s circa Oracular Splendor, Passion Pit circa Manners with a teensy...

New Artist Notice: James Vincent McMorrow
If you love the falsetto sounds of Bon Iver’s Skinny Love, you will equally enjoy the Irish James Vincent McMorrow. This artist has the songwriting like Bon that we all love and has a fuller sound which makes him unique. He’s almost bluesy in his vocals (his voice reminds me of honey). His album is called Early in the morning and is magnificent. He is certainly an artist on the...
Film art, Art Film. Exit Through the Gift Shop.
I love graffiti. growing up in New York City I have seen hundreds of subway art in tunnels on bridges an inside the trains in the late 80’s and early 90’s. I remember being captivated by the neon colors and bubble letters and tried my hardest to make out what these words meant. Even at a young age I recognized graffiti as an art form. I remember when the 2 train would go downtown and...
Music of the moment.
Hello Tumblers,
It’s been awhile and I’m sorry for the lack of writing. I wish I could say that I was extremely busy with work and had no time, however I was just uninspired. BUT I’m here now and I want to leave you all with some new artist that I have been listening to. Right now I just can’t get enough of the artist Skull Tape. Skull tape is the love child of Mai Shee...
