[VIDEO/MP3] Pezzettino: “You Never Know”
youaintnopicasso.com — Pezzettino’s “You Never Know” is easily the best thing I’ve heard from her yet. It’s part sunshine-pop,... part Page France and all adorable. The video’s pretty good too — a Milwaukee girl gets silly all over New ... (more) [VIDEO/MP3] Pezzettino: “You Never Know”

[VIDEO] Jimmy Fallon impersonates Neil Young covering the Fresh Prince theme
Man, turn you back on Jimmy Fallon for one day and he pulls out something amazing. Here he is doing a spot-on impersonation of Neil Young covering the Fresh Prince theme song. I get the feeling we might see this one brought out in as a guest appearance at a show or during his stand [...]

Acid Mothers Temple hitting Lexington in April
I just got some great news. Turns out that Japan’s crazed rockers, Acid Mothers Temple, will be making an appearance at Cosmic Charlie’s this coming April. Ten months ago it looked like Lexington’s music scene was hitting a slump, but it’s been rebounding in a major way ...

[MP3] Strangers Family Band’s “Live from Coral Castle” album
I saw the Strangers Family Band play Boomslang and really enjoyed their show. They sent me an email this weekend to let me know that not only will they be playing a string of NYC shows this week, but they’re also giving away their a recording of one of their shows. If you’re into the ...

[VIDEO] My Morning Jacket on American Dad
youaintnopicasso.com — Thanks to Backseat Sandbar for the heads-up on these videos of My Morning Jacket on American Dad.... I missed the episode, but it looks like this is the kind of exposure that a lot of bands dream of. Granted, MMJ are already hugely popular with a ... (more) [VIDEO] My Morning Jacket on American Dad
Ben Sollee + Daniel Martin Moore playing fundraiser in Lex
I wouldn’t call Ben Sollee and Daniel Martin Moore’s upcoming benefit show in Lexington a “secret,” but it hasn’t exactly been well publicized. Kentucky’s two finest young folk songwriters will be playing at the Red Mile Round Barn to benefit Institute 193, a ...

[VIDEO] BlackRoc: “Ain’t Nothing Like You” [Black Keys + Mos Def]
I finally checked out the Black Keys’ hip hop project BlackRoc and immediately fell for it. They back up everyone from Mos Def and Q-Tip to RZA and Ludacris. “Ain’t Nothing Like You” is a good example of the the more riff-oriented tracks on the record. Combine the ...

[VIDEO] Tune-Yards perform “Hatari,” “Fiya”
I’d been meaning to write about Tune-Yards for a week or two, but these videos gave me the perfect opportunity. For people who dig Micachu and the Shapes, Deerhoof and Final Fantasy, Tune-Yards would be an encouraged next step. These videos are incredibly wild and expressive, but also ...

[MP3] Think About Life: “Johanna”
I was working on my year end list of best songs the other day when I realized that I’d never posted on Think About Life’s album Family. It’s way past the peak time for me to be helping them out with a mention, but the album’s too good for me to ignore completely. ...

[VIDEO] Jason Segel sings with the Swell Season, gives out his #
I tried not to post this, but my will didn’t last more than an instant. Jason Segel is one of the more hilarious, likeable actors going and this is a great song. He joined the Swell Season at an LA show to debut this song about trying to have sex with a Swell Season fan [...]

[MP3] new Beck: “Harry Partch”
So in case you don’t read any blogs who occasionally report on goofy feuds within the music community, I’ll catch you up. Matt Friedberger of the Fiery Furnaces said that Radiohead were trying to be hip by writing a song about the inventor of the 43-tone scale, Harry Partch. Problem ...

Monolith Festival’s future uncertain, needs sponsorship
Yesterday the Monolith Music Festival put up this message: A tough economic year and an opening day of chilling rain combined to put a serious dent in our humble operation. We have continued to pursue any and all options that would allow us to recover from this year and head into 2010 with full ...

[VIDEO] These United States make a ’90s VHS video for “Important Things”
In 1993 I was seven years old and had likely just conned my dad into buying me a Super Nintendo (thanks, dad!). I was contributing nothing to society other than drawings of the X-Men. These United States, however, were apparently just getting their band together and recording this video for the ...

[VIDEO] Vampire Weekend: “Cousins”
I missed the leak earlier today, so this is my first time hearing Vampire Weekend’s new song “Cousins.” The track’s not half bad. In fact, it might have done what the entire album should do — move past the formula of the first record, but don’t alienate too ...

[VIDEO] N.A.S.A.: “Spacious Thoughts”
Boing Boing just premiered this video for N.A.S.A’s song “Spacious Thoughts,” featuring Tom Waits and Kool Keith. It’s a crazy, pen and ink/computer video that gives great visuals to Tom’s voice and the song as a whole.

[MP3] Thee American Revolution: “Electric Flame” // show Friday in Lexington
Robert Schneider of the Apples in Stereo always has a lot going on. Whether it’s his children’s music alter ego Robbert Bobbert, co-running Garden Gate Records or just playing with old friends, he’s always got something to keep himself (and his fans) occupied. Now his latest ...

[MP3] Harlem: “Sometimes” (Flamin’ Groovies cover)
According to Harlem, they’ve never heard the original, Paul Revere version of this song, only the Flamin’ Groovies cover. So really, this month’s Cover of the Month is actually a cover of a cover. But however it got from their instruments to our ears, let’s be thankful ...

Magnetic Fields announce Realism supporting tour dates
Guys, I have a confession to make. Normally when faced with some really awesome, fresh news like “the Magnetic Fields have just announced their US tour dates,” I’ll rush to YANP and post it here before doing anything. But today I had to do something before posting this — ...

[MP3] new Beach House: “Norway”
Sub Pop just posted this new track of Beach House’s upcoming album Teen Dream. It’s hitting stores in 2010, taking it out of the running for best album of the year/decade/whatever, but that doesn’t keep it from sounding absolutely incredible. Here’s your first taste of ...
