Sondre Lerche To Play Bowery Ballroom On April 15 + Video

When speaking about "Soft Feelings" Sondre said, "I liked the idea of a man on the verge of an identity crisis, alone in LA. A noir-portrait of the man and the city over the course of a lost weekend of isolation and ambivalence. If the previous video, I'm Always Watching You, was Rear Window, Soft Feelings is Vertigo, with all its clues, symbolism and obsessiveness."

Valerie June To Release New Album + New York Show

Photo credit: Danny Clinch

Valerie June is set to release her new album, The Order Of Time, on March 10. You can pre-order it HERE. New York, you can catch her live at The Town Hall on Saturday, March 11 at 8PM. See below for more details.

Saturday, March 11
123 West 43rd Street
(between 6th Ave and Broadway)
New York, NY
Doors: 7:30pm / Show: 8PM
All Ages

On this enthralling and illuminating leap forward, the Tennessee-bred, Brooklyn based songwriter weaves electric blues, African rhythms, cosmic atmospherics and delicate soul into an inventive and wholly original rumination on love, family, struggle and the passing of time. Produced by Matt Marinelli (Beck, Bad Brains), The Order of Time features twelve original songs all written by June. 
Musically, June has refined and expanded her sound on the new album finding space from her previous work in its artful, self-assured restraint and overall cohesion. The collection’s finely sketched character studies brim with richness and detail while June’s ethereal, wide-open soundscapes provide a sterling backdrop for her remarkable Southern gospel and honey voice.  Lyrical touch points such as ‘dancing shadows,’ ‘hot suppers,’ ‘curious neighbors,’ and ‘holy water’ draw the listener in and root these songs with density and weight.
