Sunglasses from Savannah, Georgia will be an exciting contribution to the music scene this year. Interestingly, this collaboration between Samuel Cooper and Brady Keehn started through a film production. Their sound is fresh and a good example of “out of this world” music, but is incredibly difficult to describe. The crossovers and style are not something I have heard much before but are something to appreciate as music should keep expanding and explore new areas.
While everything else, including girls, have come and gone, Yo La Tengo has stayed. Since I started listening to them in the end of eighth grade, Yo La Tengo has always been there for me. They have always been my reliable source of good music, never ever disappointing me. I can with proud heart say that I’ve never heard a Yo La Tengo-song I really dislike.
Venice Is sinking is a five-piece from Athens, Georgia, playing a sort of mix between orchestral pop and americana. Imagine The Decemberists, but less sea shanty and Dent May singing. Then you mix in Yo La Tengo and some wierd special ingredient and that there will be quite similar to Venice Is Sinking.
