New Trails and Ways + Tour

06 16 2013

Our friends from Trails and Ways are on tour! Check out if they’re going to be in a town near you and download their final single for the EP “Tereza”. A pulsing, dreamy number that takes place out on the desolate coast of northeastern Brazil. Sung by Emma Oppen, the track started from playing Tom Jobim chords over a Radio Dept. beat.

Winnie Reviews: Atlas Genius @ Venue

05 27 2013

I stayed the whole time. I stayed for the encore.

For those of you who don’t know, Atlas Genius are an indie rock band from Adelaide, South Australia. The band consists of vocalist and guitarist Keith Jeffery and Michael Jeffery on drums.

The show was good, but more importantly was the crowd they pulled — in Vancouver. They were all lined up at the front of the stage before the opener went on. Atlas Genius are talented group. They seem to have enough momentum at the moment to break even, and if they play their cards right it should lead somewhere. Download their single “Centered on You” for free below and catch them the next time they’re playing near you, it’s worth a look.
