INTRODUCING YOU TO BANDS YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW, BUT TOTALLY SHOULD. Astro Rainy, awful and hot days stuck indoors with kids can be brutal. Days on end of indoor drudgery, trying to figure out inventive ways to keep them entertained is exhausting. With all of the toys and electronics we [...]
INTRODUCING YOU TO BANDS YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW, BUT TOTALLY SHOULD. Seratones You need to be a pretty fantastic band to have me even consider traveling across the country to see a festival performance; especially given how MEH I feel about festivals in general. Still, I actually considered looking into [...]
INTRODUCING YOU TO BANDS YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW, BUT TOTALLY SHOULD. Throwing Muses Speaking to a friend recently, they mentioned a band I hadn’t listened to in a long long time and had regrettably forgotten about. With a lot of bands keeping the memory of what they were to me at [...]
INTRODUCING YOU TO BANDS YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW, BUT TOTALLY SHOULD. Beth Ditto I’m having trouble trying to describe Beth Ditto’s music. So many of her songs are very dance and electronica when other songs sound like Florence Welch, as produced by Dan Auerbach over Jack White’s fuzz guitar. Happy mediums [...]
With Father’s Day weekend behind us, we’re able to look back and revel in some #CheeriosChallenge, 2017 glory! Thousands of people used the #StackingChallenge to have fun with their families and their favorite cereal, but also to possibly win a trip to Mall of America! While we wished we [...]

INTRODUCING YOU TO BANDS YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW, BUT TOTALLY SHOULD. Asger Techau We haven’t covered a whole ton of Danish indie musicians in Playlist Elevated. Should Asger Techau’s music prove to be typical of what can be made there, then I’ll be on my way to Danlandia soon (I’m assuming [...]
I work from home which is simultaneously amazing and mind numbingly claustrophobic. Obviously the benefits outweigh the downsides by a landslide. I have an 18’ commute to my office. Showers are absurdly optional and I conduct (probably?) too many conference calls in my underwear. Just kidding. There can never [...]
INTRODUCING YOU TO BANDS YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW, BUT TOTALLY SHOULD. The Go! Team Everything this band throws out seems to work, when on paper it sounds like it could be an absolute train-wreck. Was it just boredom or genius experimentation that led founder Ian Parton to blend Old School Rap [...]
INTRODUCING YOU TO BANDS YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW, BUT TOTALLY SHOULD. Sleepy Gonzales You know when you’re totally into a band and you want to share them with everyone so they can also bask in the awesomeness of their creations? Brightened melodies and deep, meaningful lyricism would abound for [...]
