New Best Coast! THE ONLY PLACE

Some of my favorite Californians are back with a new album which also brings a new tour!

The Only Place will come out on May 15th but you can get a package deal, tickets to a show and a signed copy of the cd! Riiiight here- GiltCity.com Best Coast Pre-Sale !
They aren't coming to Phoenix :( but they are going to be in LA on May 18th. Looks like I'm California bound come May!

Orange Blossom

Also currently addicted to the song Orange Blossom-




Diggin on the Santa Barbara band Gardens and Villa lately, who sadly aren't stopping by AZ on their current tour, but will be hitting up Coachella. Hopfully they'll come by soon, I'm sure it would be a rad show to catch.

Can't Stop.

This has been cirulating the internet for quite a long time before I ever caught wind of it. And oh my god, I know why it's been such a success. Just watch, it's addicting.




It's such a simple video, but it evokes so many emotions. Whether it's Gotye's emotionally driven facial expressions or Kimbra's very few subtle sexy movements, I think it's a combination of both, either way, I seriously can't stop watching.

"You can get addicted to a certain kinda sadness. Like resignation to the end, always the end."
"You said that you could let it go. And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody you used to know."

I can't tell if I'm mesmorized by the song...or by the video. Possibly both. And of course the fun sunglasses.


Princess Chelsea hails from New Zealand and only has one release so far. She came out with her debut album in 2008, which you can listen to/buy here-

TV GIRL!

So tonight I have some free downloads! Always a good time!

This San Diego group combines lofi-pop, electronica and a bit of hip hop into some pretty sweet jams.


I'm a sucker for stop motion. And dancing beer bottles? Wait...did that chicken have sunglasses on?! Yes please. So adorable.
