Premiere: LEONE search for the romantic ideal on the darkly seductive new cut ‘I Wanna Be’
In the video for their new single, Brooklyn trio LEONE put it all on red, and lose, badly, as a trip to a dingy casino has consequences. On first glance it has absolutely nothing to do with the lyrical content of ‘I Wanna Be’, but then you remember that betting and gambling are often used …

Premiere: JD Pinkus and Tall Tall Trees are ‘Afterlifers’ in surreal new video
About a month ago, JD Pinkus of the Butthole Surfers and Mike Savino of Tall Tall Trees announced the collaborative album Ponder Machine, a record on which traditional bluegrass takes a detour into something psychedelic and, at times, otherworldly. It’s quite a trip, and not what you would expect from its description. It goes to …
Premiere: Pony Girl announce new album ‘Laff It Off’ and share title track
Well, this is a welcome surprise – not even a year since their last album, Ottawa’s Pony Girl are already back with news of a follow-up. Following October’s Enny One Wil Love You, you’d have expected the duo to take some time off, but it’s two albums on the trot for Pascol Huot and Yolande …
