Big Phony – “But I Will, Everyday” Video!

What a great songwriter Big Phony is… As he explains at the beginning of this new video produced by The Mighty Fifty:

“I don’t really write love songs ‘cuz I’ve never been in love… But this is more of a promise to love.”

Big Phony’s new album will be out this fall, and you KNOW BIC is going to be all over it!  Can’t wait!

Thao with The Get Down, Stay Down @ Black Cat (and more)

Being on this side of the shores, I try to take advantage of as many shows as possible when I’m back stateside. On my last visit, I got to see Thao with The Get Down, Stay Down at the Black Cat in DC. This is a band I’ve been wanting to see for 2 years, but through re-scheduling and re-locating (by both parties), had not yet managed to do. So for me to finally get to see them in their hometown was nerdy-exciting. Were they as awesome as I thought they would be? Absolutely.
