The Pelican’s Perch

After at least five comments and a few more emails to boot, I’ve finally given in to everyone’s Matt Costa recommendations. I believed you guys that I’d like Costa’s music, since my music taste seemed to set off some Matt Costa red alarm for many of you, I just hadn’t gotten around to checking [...]

I don’t normally listen to dance music willingly unless I’m dancing at Mixology, our local indie dance club we hit up every Friday night, or if the band has a unique sound I simply can’t ignore.  Seeing the headline Does It Offend You, Yeah? on an email, I became quite intrigued.  Was I going to [...]

Do you like The New Pornographers? How about Mates of State? Yes you say. Well, Georgie James is for you then. Georgie James is the band former Q and Not U drummer John Davis started after working out a few songs with singer/songwriter friend Laura Burhenn after they realized their common [...]

It’s two in the morning and I really like this song. The end.

Listening to Apollo Sunshine today at work on full blast while alone cleaning up the shop I came to the realization that Apollo Sunshine, one of my favorite pop bands ever, are criminally underrated.

Dylan has been a long time virtual friend that I met a while back through the blog and we’ve since had numerous great conversations about all the indie albums that have come and gone, being labeled as our “current favorite”.  That label has now been passed on to Why? and their amazing new album Alopecia.  [...]

Frightened Rabbit are a three piece from Scotland and you can definitely hear the accent in the singing.  They signed to FatCat Records recently and a newly remastered version of their last album, Sing the Greys, found it’s way to the U.S. late last year, after being released nearly a year ago in Scotland.
That’s about [...]

I got an email from Patrick not too long ago asking if I’d like to listen to his new album, and to let me know he’s giving it away free.  He belongs to the 001 Collective, which all believe music should be free to everyone, and I’ve been listening to his stuff for the last [...]

How in the world do I still have readers? I’ve been a pathetic music blogger lately. I’ve been in a rut due to my lingering sickness. I’ve been super busy with LemonDrop as we’ve been prepping for the releases of our first two albums, The Verbs self-titled debut and Jimmy Spits’ Leaps [...]

First off, Herbie Hancock? I read Cracked.com’s newest list of the biggest Grammy snubs and why the Grammy’s never were that important, and seeing that final album of the year selection cracked me up. Of course, look who he was going up against. Foo Fighters, Vince Gill, Amy Winehouse, and Kanye [...]
