April 30th, 2013 by Matt

I saw Houndmouth put on a great show this weekend at Cosmic. While on stage, they mentioned that they released a video for “On the Road” the day prior. Well, I forgot about that offhand comment until I saw that they covered Wilco & Billy Bragg for the AV Club. So get your Houndmouth on [...]

[video] Divine Fits cover Frank Ocean

October 17th, 2012 by Matt

Stereogum just shared this great video of Divine Fits covering Frank Ocean’s “Lost” at last night’s concert. They do such a great job on this one that I hope they spend a day or two hammering out a studio version. I’d definitely buy a Frank Ocean / Divine Fits split 7″ Maybe Frank could tackle [...]
