Today's Quick Mention: If by Sunday
you're completely Psych Fest-ed out then I highly
recommend joining Dan and myself at the Alamo
Drafthouse Ritz. My Education will be putting
on a
live
score for the classic silent film Sunrise,
and I believe it's going to be fairly awesome.
I doubt any of you remember, but way back in 2008 I
shared a 60s sound-enthused track from King Tuff
titled Sun Medallion (hear it via glorious
faux-video below). Well, as I found out
yesterday, that band has now become Happy Birthday,
they're now on the almighty Sub Pop and they just
put out their self titled debut last month.
Enjoy.
:Happy
Birthday - Girls FM:
This is definitely a lot more retro pop than what was done
with King Tuff, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.
Especially when you consider that this might be one of the
more fun tunes I've come across in 2010. End your week
a on a positive note. Crank this. Dance around.
And remember to pick up the LP that this came from.
I'm sure it's a blast as well.
