U.S. Girls

our friend Megan has a new album out called Go Grey. It's really fuzzy and atmospheric and makes me feel like I'm floating in outer space - but in a weird dated way. Like what people predicted the future would be like in the mid-20th century. (Does that make sense?) It's really good! So's this video. She's touring Europe right now, so if you're there go see her. She will hypnotize you with her sonic drone waves.

FAMILY

we recorded 12 songs this past weekend. SO INTENSE!!! we couldn't have done it any other place besides Magic Twig. They are our second family. John Thompson and Joe Lunsford are recording geniuses. Seriously. The songs sound crazy!! We are super super excited about them all and actually think we are going to use these songs for an album.

ANYWAY here's some photos of our time in snowy Roanoke Virginia:

SLEEPY TIME

INTENSIVE SOUTHERN RECORDNING RETREAT WEEKEND

This weekend we are driving down to scenic Appalachia to record up to 10 songs in 3 days. A couple of them are older, but most are brand new. We are so excited because our good friends at MAGIC TWIG are recording us at the Mystic Fortress.

We recently re-watched Don't Look Back and finally saw No Direction Home, and holy shit Bob Dylan is a BAD ASS.
