Money Saves teaser from Delta Spirit’s new album, out next week! I don’t know about you guys, but I can’t wait to hear it. They’re definitely one of the best bands out there.
Pre-order the album and support them live.
Rabbit Hole// The Temper Trap
The first released track from The Temper Trap’s self-titled second album, out June 5 in the US. It’s somewhat similar yet strikingly different from the sound of the their last album, but I like it. The slow-mo video is simply sweet.
Let me tell you, I’m falling in love with March.
I know, I’m rushing into things, it’s only been a week. I’ve already enjoyed this beautiful weather (my pasty skin was thankful for this), been showered in good exam scores (always nice and relieving), bought my ticket for Dr. Dog on Saturday, and, looking forward, spring break (and Community)! I don’t know about you guys, but I’m so ready for a week off of class. Hopefully I’ll be able to hit up SXSW for a few days if I don’t have to work all week. Fingers crossed.
I sure hope that you guys are enjoying this lovely month as much as I am. Get outside. Picnic. Hike. Frolic. Bike. Whatever. Here are some jams for your lovely people.

Diggin’ this new Beach House track.
“Nothing is more powerful than an idea whose time is now.”
This deserves a real post. By now you probably recognize the name Kony. That is great. This organization has been working tirelessly for years to make this happen. And now that it is, it’s surreal. The amount of networking going on right now is blowing my mind.
If you haven’t watched this film yet, take 30 minutes and do it. Now. Then show it to everyone you know. That’s the only way this will work. I’m proud to be a part of this.
