Pretty good!

The Hard Quartet — the indie supergroup comprised of Stephen Malkmus, Emmett Kelly, Matt Sweeney, and Jim White — have released their debut single, “Earth Hater.” What’s more, the band has plotted out their first tour dates for fall 2024.

[SKT]

I don’t know how to describe this

[popvulture]

@SKT man he’s so good. He totally has his own thing carved out, like Frisell.

@SKT bonus points for jazz on a tele

[popvulture]

@GraemeE highly underrated jazz guitar.

jazz box < jazz slab

[GraemeE]

@popvulture I'm assuming you took that into account with your Frisell analysis

[popvulture]

@GraemeE yes, oh yes.

I must’ve watched this video at least a hundred times. I have limitless space for tasteful telecasting.

Could listen to this fella noodle all day. Jim Thomas and The Mermen

I love it when I stumble across something and get that why-didn’t-I-know-about-this-before feeling. Hoping to pass it on!

@popvulture one of the only redeeming acts of the villainous charlatans was that infamous VW commercial which led to me discovering the music of Nick Drake......

[popvulture]

@GraemeE I remember that ad! I think it sold more copies of Pink Moon than VWs.

[popvulture]

My version of that is the Gap ad that got me into Bill Withers:

[Aetas]

I discovered Pink Moon from Nick Drake with the version of No-Man…

If you can access BBC Sounds this is an absolute treat.
"Live at the BBC Proms: BBC Symphony Orchestra, guest artists and conductor Jules Buckley honour Nick Drake in arrangements including Northern Sky, River Man, and Time Has Told Me"

New King Gizzard makes me a happy boy.

Listened 3x already, love the concept and general feeling of it all. Very accessible too, and probably the first of their records I might be able to get my dad into

Opening track really sets the scene...

Was going to share this before but I was reminded by the current discussion on @endo’s thread - this always makes me think of @Mizmazzle and @Oaktavia (although both currently have less hair than normal ). Keeping doing what you do guys!

[Mizmazzle]

@ARNC damn man…that literally moved me to the point of eyes welling up. What a beautiful song. Beyond grateful that you shared that. I’d never heard that before.

[ARNC]

@Mizmazzle you’re welcome! This guy’s very prolific and well known in the UK ((although not exactly mainstream). I’m not sure if he’s known elsewhere.
