video of the week

shearwater – the golden archipelago – hidden lakes

the texax boys dropped the new album this past week and it’s chock-full with stunners. this first video from the album is no different. directed by alma har’el (she’s also directed videos for beirut and fanfarlo), the video lends itself very well to the strange, dreamlike quality of the song. ever see the 2003 movie northfork? this video reminds me a lot of the look of that film. that’s a good thing.

local artist to watch

fay wolf

this silverlake resident can be heard on grey’s anatomy and one tree hill. she’s been tearing up the local venues with her sad piano songs and she’s one to watch – a stunner, an actor, a personal organizer by day, and a dear friend. do yourself a favor, make yourself a bath and listen. faywolf.com
