New Song From Dancing Heals + New Album



Australian based Dancing Heals have released a new song, "Something."  The track is from their upcoming second album, You Will Never Be Younger Than You Are Now, which is scheduled for release on July 5.  Check out the song below.

One week after announcing the July 5th release date of their new album, You Will Never Be Younger Than You Are Now, and Australia tour, Dancing Heals are back at it again. Having just released their second single off the album, making it available as a free download, the new track is a trademark Dancing Heals heartbreaker with soaring guitars. Titled “Something”, this is the follow up single of "Always on My Mind," which was released earlier this Spring, both taken from the forthcoming LP. The Heals have just finished shooting a music video for the track, working with local director Thomas Elliott, of Achtung Films which will be out later this Summer.

Their new album, You Will Never Be Younger Than You Are Now, will be available on digital and CD formats in July on DEL GRANGO RECORDS, distributed by MGM Distribution.

Caught My Ear: City Light - "Sweet Death"


City Light have released the track "Sweet Death".  Check it out below.



City Light is the electronic-pop project of singer/songwriter Matt Shaw and producer Nick Andre. They first came to prominence in 2010 with the album, Burned Out Bright. The band began as a long-distance audio experiment with the Seattle singer and San Francisco producer collaborating on tracks and with friends such as Andy Fitts (Airport Cathedral/Aqueduct) and Marc Bianchi (Her Space Holiday). Burned Out Bright received a glowing reception wherever it was heard, including landing the band as Filter Magazine's Undiscovered Band Of The Month. In 2011 Matt moved to San Francisco to give City Light full attention. Since then the band has toured with Her Space Holiday, done spot dates with A.C. Newman and Holy Fuck, and contributed post-production to How To Dress Well's album, Love Remains. With their 2013 album, Memory Guide, the band has reached new heights. Combining Nick Andre's hip-hop influenced, electronic-based indie-rock production with the poetic lyrics and hook-laden vocals of Matt Shaw has created a sound that is reminiscent of electro-pop giants The Flaming Lips, The Notwist, and The Postal Service, yet at the same time, is inarguably original.

If I Dropped By… with Joe Salgo of Of Clocks And Clouds


This week I posed my "If I Dropped By..." question to Joe Salgo from the Brooklyn based band Of Clocks And Clouds.  They've been busy working on new music which we hope to hear very soon.  Continue reading to see what I found out during my hypothetical visit to his home.

Quirky NY Chick (QNYC): ... and brought a friend who didn't know your music, what song of yours would you play for them and why?

Caroline Rose To Release Debut Full-length Record

 

Caroline Rose will release her debut full-length record, America Religious, on July 2.  Rose, co-produced the record with her partner Jer Coons doing nearly everything themselves.  Check out the track "America Religious" below.

“I just want to write honest music,” says the songwriter, whose debut album is set for release July of this year. “I don’t feel, nor have I ever felt, any desire to write something that I don’t need to say. I started out writing just for myself, as some sort of outlet, and most of the things that would flow out of my mind were things that were much bigger than me, things that people might want to hear.” From current political issues to vignettes of personal struggles, America Religious depicts stories of a contemporary American society that is far from perfect, yet full of life. “If I can use music to bring to light real things, the hypocrisies and problems in society, as well as the beauty in things people take for granted, then I think that would make me feel pretty good.”
