We’ll start off this week’s ‘Free Music Friday’ with a two-for. The Good Graces is the solo project from Kim Ware, out of Atlanta on her own Eskimo Kiss Records. She just released her debut album, Sunset Over Saxapahaw and we’re happy to share “Over It” and “Disassembled” from the release. A healthy double dose of minimalist indie rock to start the weekend.
Nashville’s Paper Route is currently touring with Low vs. Diamond and Barcelona before the head overseas to bring their poppy electronica to the Brits for a short stint. Toss the previous mellow indie rock aside and check the slick upbeat sound of “Empty House” from the group’s Are We All Forgotten EP. These kids are gonna be big.
School of Seven Bells is currently touring with M83, opening many a sold out show across the US and receiving rave reviews. Tomorrow night, the Brooklyn trio hits Philadelphia’s Starlight Ballroom, a highly anticipated show which Editor-in-Chief Jessica will attending. Should you need any convincing to attend, listen no further than the the sweetly smooth “Connjur” off the band’s just released Alpinisms. The ambient melodies will have you floating on a cloud.
Last up we’ve got Valina, an Austrian import that just signed to Joyful Noise Recordings, those lovely people that just provided us with a free sampler! The band’s third full-length, A Tempo! A Tempo! will be released stateside in March 2009 thanks for Joyful Noise but until then, snag this full and heavy math rock-y track:
Now that we’re passed Halloween and are almost at mid-November, PopWreckoning is finally able to come to terms with the impending holiday season. It’s not that we’re Scrooges or anything, we just think that September is way too early to even begin thinking about winter holidays; we like to revel in the pretty changing leaves and crisp afternoons. We did mention a bit of holiday news before because it involved our favorite fake news pundit and some very special musicians, but now we’re delighted to share with you a present!
