Grizzly Bear - "Ready, Able" Video

Here's a band that I write about only to get visitors to Musicology NYC. 0h Grizzly Bear, thou are holy. After years of trying to be cool enough t0 like them, I've accepted that I'll never get them.

Here's another thing; Horn of Plenty is their best album.

Check out the new video for "Ready, Able" from everyone's favorite 2009 album Veckatimest.

Bebel Gilberto and Mark Ronson - "The Real Thing" MP3

I've been seeing pictures of Bebel Gilberto all over the city. I guess that makes her not really "indie" but still she can sing good and who doesn't dig good singers especially when they work with... Mark Ronson. Holla. That dude is mad sick at making records like Amy Winehouse's and others probably too.

Listen to and download "The Real Thing" here.

Bebel Gilberto will tour these places too.

Loretta Lynn & Jack White - "Portland Oregon" Video

Because cool people shop at thrift stores I swung by the thrift store near my apartment and picked up Loretta Lynn's 20 Greatest Hits knowing nothing other than Jack White digs her. Because Jack White knows what's cool, I listened and liked too. Thanks for the referral Mr. White.

Bishop Allen - "True or False" Video

True: the mighty Stereogum (rarggghhh) premiered this cool video from the Bishop Allen album Grr... called "True or False". True, there's a lot of people dancing in this vid. Turns out some people can dance soberly. And to this song nonetheless. Go people.
