HillyTown exclusive! New video from Portland psych-drone collective Planets Around The Sun (directed by the band’s own M. Lajoie). The song is “Sunshooter” off their upcoming album Ram Of Heart Check it out: See the band live next weekend on Saturday, 8/27, at the Frontier Cafe in Brunswick, ME in conjunction with a screening of Bill Daniel’s film, SONIC OPRHANS (also screening at SPACE Gallery in Portland the day before – August 26). Portland’s premier indie psych-popsters (and this site’s namesake) Phantom Buffalo have made a video promoting their upcoming LP, Cement Postcard With Owl Colours. It’s colorful and amazing.
Tasty Dude Films made a new video for Grand Hotel‘s song, “California Cool”. The band has a number of high profile gigs coming up this summer, including slots on both the Nateva and KahBang Festivals, as well as their cd release party at The Stadium (yes, really – I’ve actually heard that their “function room” makes a great venue for a rock show, though I haven’t seen it myself yet) on July 18. Fresh for your eyeballs, directed by the excellent Nick Poulin, is a new video for Brenda’s song, “Blackout.” This track will appear on their upcoming record, Silver Tower, out June 29 on Mckeenstreetmusic.
Brenda – “Blackout” Official Music Video from Mckeenstreet Music on Vimeo. In conjunction with the announcement that they’re launching a record label, our friends at [dog] and [pony] released an excellent video of their newly-signed act from Bangor, Good Kids Sprouting Horns. They’re definitely a band on the rise in Maine, and it’s interesting to have their development documented in this way. Check out the video below:
Good Kids Sprouting Horns from [dog]and[pony] on Vimeo. GKSH have a busy schedule this summer, starting with the Free Range Music Festival tomorrow (I’ll have coverage of that on the site next week), then a number of appearances in Portland and elsewhere around the state, including the Arootsakoostik Music Festival in New Sweden on August 7.
The new label’s other signee, Jakob Battick (& Friends), have also been active lately, and I’ve caught a couple of their shows. Next Tuesday, April 27, they’ll perform live on the air at WMPG during Liberation By Sound, along with Tiger Saw and Lazarus. Read on for photos from their April 9 show at Slainte (which I reviewed here). Read on… They may not be from Portland (or Maine, for that matter) but the Antlers have been here to play a few times and I know there are some fans, so here’s their new video for the song “Bear.”
I meant to post this a while ago. But today is as good as any time! The show it refers to is next Tuesday! Beware the sort of gross chewing sounds. |
