You might have noticed that I haven’t been posting so much new music as of late. Mostly its because these days I’m not as impressed. No shots at anybody in particular, but I don’t post anything that doesn’t really “wow” me. With that being said, check out Norwegian outfit Jaga Jazzist. Hit the jump for [...]
Ok, so I haven’t made a post yet about how amazing the new U Street Music Hall (UHall) in DC is. If you’re in the area, go there. The soundsystem is banging, the dancefloor is packed, the people are friendly, the drinks are reasonably priced, and the lineup is always A+. This Saturday at the [...]

Earlier today I took the subway out to Brooklyn to catch the Freelance Whales give a live acoustic set at the Bedford Avenue station. Aside from a brief conflict with the law, the performance was incredible. I talked to some of the bandmembers briefly afterwords and they mentioned how this was one of the first [...]
I’m super late on these guys, but never mind that. Montreal based Think About Life has been rolling around Canada playing parties and establishing their style for a minute now. Look for them on tour soon stateside and internationally this spring and summer. Good sound all around. Yessir. -in[di]visible
I’m new to Hindi Zahra’s music, but I definitely like it. She’s not coming stateside for a performance until SXSW, but if you’re in France and can get to one of her shows, do that. Keep up with her here. -in[di]visible
