Tune-Yards (Merrill Garbus Is Amazing)

Merrill Garbus (vocals, drums, ukulele all looped) and Nate Brenner (bass) are Tune-Yards (or tUne-YaRdS) and they released their second album Whokill last year on 4AD Records. The single Bizness is a new favorite of mine as well as the lip syncing elementary school kids in the awesome video.

Ben Howard - Old Pine

Here is a song and an artist I am really diggin' lately. Ben Howard (UK) released Every Kingdom in September of last year and I am ashamed to say I just heard of this amazing album recently. Every song off of this album carries its own weight. No filler. Old Pine is one of my favorites and has some awesome guitar playing, as does the entire album.

Beck Releases A New Track About Hating People

 Like Insane Clown Posse and Tom Jones, Beck releases a one-off single on Jack White's Third Man Records. The new track is called I Just Started Hating Some People Today. At first the song doesn't quite sound like him. An old Folksy and Country tune but it picks up fast and starts to sound very Beck. He even offers up two awesomely weird endings. The Country twang is nice and definitely feels like it has Jack White all over it.
