Today: Something Told

My third Coachella post. Hopefully I will be able to post FROM Coachella at some point in the future.

Youtube stream: http://www.youtube.com/user/coachella/live

Bands to check out on Sunday:

Real Estate is beachy rock with great harmonies and great guitar.

At this point everyone knows Gotye. He is definitely the set to watch at this year's festival.

Florence + the Machine never disappoint. Her voice is just so haunting and beautiful live.

Today: Something Told

Coachella is two weekends this year due to it's crazy popularity.

Again the youtube livestream for next weekend is: http://www.youtube.com/user/coachella/live

Bands to check out on Saturday:



AWOLNATION just released a bunch of remixes of their song, "Sail," from their 2011 record, "Megalithic Symphony." I also really like "Guilty Filthy Soul." I hope they release a new full length album soon.



St. Vincent is strong, sometimes dark, sometimes floaty, rock led by female vocals. "Cruel" is a great example from "Strange Mercy."



The Head and the Heart has been a staple at Coachella the past couple years. They are a great indie folk band. I love the instrumentation and harmonies on "Honey Come Home." Another band I hope comes out with a new album soon.

Today: Something New

I love the horns and chimes in this song. There is so much going on.



 I really like Dana Valatka's vocals and harmonies as well. "Get Alive" from AU's new record, "Both Lights."
