Dawes | Love Is All I Am

I've recently been enraptured by the AM gold that is L.A's Dawes. You gotta love a song that actually says "love is more than kissing and holding hands." I think it's actually a pretty ballsy statement for someone writing a pop song, but, I digress.

The pop-folk treatment on this one reminds me of the not-dead Gordon Lightfoot and Cat Stevens.

The group will be at The Cavern a week from Thursday.

New Wye Oak Video

Check out the new Wye Oak for "Sight, Fight." They are coming to town with Low Barlow on 10/22 at the Granada and you can also catch them on 10/2 at the Cavern Ale House.

Wye Oak Get Remixed And Come To The D

So, first things first--Baltimore's Wye Oak got the remix treatment from Baltimore producer Mickey Free. It's a nice re-imagining of "That I Do," it gives it a bit of a darker electronic element to it. You can find it below.

Also, they are coming to town with Cotton Jones at The Cavern on October 2. Should be a great show... in a small intimate setting.

Grand Archives Sunday! Sunday! SUNDAY!

The Seatlle Sub Pop-pers will be playing and early show, 630p, at The Cavern this Sunday. Denton's Sara Jaffe will be the first act, followed by the lovely Sera Cahoone. It should be a good one, their debut album is awesome.
