It’s a cover song twofer today! I’m a sucker for anyone who can use a loop pedal. Hope she gets her kickstarter money and even if she doesn’t, I hope she continues doing her thang.
Original:
Love her or do whatever you can in your power to throw some shade in her direction while fawning all over some awful pop shit (or even some awful indie noise band if you’re so high class) – you can’t deny the dreamy sound she gives to this cover of Kasabian’s “Goodbye Kiss”. Haters gon’ hate and I’ll just sit here putting the good stuff in my ears.
Original Version:
Shmu (Zorch) goes solo and shares his new video which may go down as one of the most hipster of all hipster things I’ve ever seen. I’m talking pink onesie pajamas as an outfit, old, loud-colored sweaters whose leftover thrift store odors are so easily imaginable they are practically wafting through my computer screen, a fun house…I could go on. The song is a jam though!
Download “House of Stares”
Ladyhawke has been teasing us with bits and pieces of her upcoming album for what seems like forever now! This Gigamesh remix of “Sunday Drive” is bonkers! Makes me even more excited to hear whatever is next.
Also check out a new tune from Hot Chip (if you haven’t heard it already)
Baunz “The Same Thing” really appeals to the life-long Chicagoan in me. Sometimes there’s nothing better than House music.
Download the title track off of The High Strung’s freshly released album “?Posible o’ Imposible?“
Sorry for the late post every body but my shit has been cray cray lately! I’ve been busy shooting a web series and trying to keep up with, oh, you know, the work that actually pays my bills. Somewhat. Without further ado – here are my picks for the top concerts to get your ass to around Chicago this week. Download the podcast here or on iTunes.

Portugal. The Man @ The Vic
Wednesday Picks:
Wednesday
Columbia College Chicago presents Biggest Mouth. FREE to the public. Find more info at Do312 @ Metro

This is from a 2010 performance in Toronto but worthy of bringing back to your ears today. She is so damn talented.
As a side note, I had no idea Charlie Chaplin actually composed the music for this. Go on with your bad self Charlie!
