Video: Tumbleweed Wanderers “Quiver in My Bones”
A while back, we featured the Bay Area’s Tumbleweed Wanderer’s in a Band to Watch post. Their track “Take it Back” from their debut, self-titled EP was immediately relatable and addictive. I thought I had listened to enough new grass bands to last a lifetime in college, but these guys were just too much fun to pass up. Great vocals, solid guitar play and downright danceable tunes. The boys from the Bay are back with more terrific material, albeit in a less foot-stomping fashion than their initial single. The latest bit of goodness comes in the form of a video for the song “Quiver in My Bones” featured below.

Fresh Track: CSLSX “Aeromancer” (feat. Mountain Man)
You may remember Mountain Man from such posts as yesterday’s. The ladies have been a weekly listen for me since coming late to the party for their album Made the Harbor. This week, Philadelphia electronic collective CSLSX released a new song called “Aeromancer.” The ladies of Mountain Man are featured in a mash-up of their songs “Buffalo” and “Mouthwings.” I would argue that the originals remain stronger, but I tend to like songs that sound like they were made in the woods. “Aeromancer” is the polar opposite of the originals, which is part of what makes the track so interesting. Compare and contrast below.

Video: Dive – Newtown Sessions
Dive is the side project of Beach Fossils guitarist Zachary Cole Smith who takes up front man duties along with fellow members Devin Perez, Andrew Bailey, and Colby Hewitt. The sound is a similar to Beach Fossils in that it still brings a hazy, dreamlike vibe over lo-fi, but there’s a much harder, faster paced guitar driving the songs. Following the 2011 trend of “going to Walden Pond” to hone your artistic craft, Zachary Cole is said to have settled into a wooden room sans running water and air conditioning in the steaming Brooklyn summer to work on his music. With these results, it’s hard to argue with the guy…this sound is right where it needs to be. The video below is a look at three tracks by the band in a live studio session at Newtown Radio. Frankly, if you don’t enjoy it, we probably couldn’t listen to music together.
Dive has two 7” records currently out, Sometime and Human, which you can purchase on the band’s label, Captured Tracks. The debut, currently untitled, EP from the band is presently slated for a March release. Watch their trio of songs “Sometime”, “Wait” and “Untitled” below:
